In today’s era of increasingly eroding certainties, artists survey the fundamental questions of life and death, extinction and immortality, investigating the impact that fragments of the past, technology, and collective behaviour can have in becoming active agents of change, transformation, and connection. This edition features an interview with Jakob Kudsk Steensen in conversation with Hans Ulrich Obrist.
Interspecies Podcast by LAS: Ep 6 - Imagining the Interspecies (Part 2)
LAS’s Interspecies podcast invites specialists in ecology, art and technology for discussions around the future of their work, the planet’s ecosystems, and how these intertwine. In this episode, science-fiction author Stanley Qiufan Chen and artist Jakob Kudsk Steensen discuss AI and a need for new forms of communication across species, and relate this concept to how they communicate in their own practices in multidisciplinary ways. They also explore narrative and alternatives to this linear logic through new rhythms – both literal and metaphorical – and the importance of intersubjectivity. By animating other worlds through mythology, science, technology, space, and sound, we come closer to a collective awakening of an Interspecies Future. Produced by Bridey Addison-Child. A Reduced Listening production for LAS.
