Microprocessors implanted in a human, or prostheses mounted on a human might be driven by ultra low voltages gained from the human body. Ultra low voltages could also be used for charging devices like watches or phones. But how about using the gained voltages for leisure? Or creative processes?

Experimentation unfolds through the investigation of SCOBY, shit and humus, which raises questions: What does symbiosis really mean?

The newly published book on Mailia is being shown at the exhibition Loose Ends, which is on display in the National Gallery of Art, Vilnius, Lithuania.
Loose Ends is about artistic communication by mail, about the sender and the receiver, or his/her absence, about the thought that you start and not always finish, about speculative and playful resistance against systems, rudiments of social networks in the Soviet times and finally, about colliding comets. Continue reading “Mailia @ the National Gallery of Art”
Mailia is a book about a conversation between a human and a machine, and the power of hybrid poetry, enhanced by AI. Who the hell is better? A human, a machine? I believe that both contribute individually, and there is no longer any separation between a human and a machine. Welcome to the hybrid world! Continue reading “Mailia Book”

Workshop with Mindaugas Gapševičius, and Mirela Alistar
Thursday 7th March 2019. 15-18h and 19h30-21h
Friday 8th March 2019. 10-13h
at ruine hq, Ihmeplatz7e, Hanover
The workshop with Mirela Alistar and Mindagaus Gapševičius invites the audience to explore their own symbiotic relationship with organisms inside and outside themselves. By using SCOBI – a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast – and other samples from the surroundings of ruine hq as metaphors for the complex organization of microorganisms in the environment, the workshop reflects on the role of a single organism in relation to its habitat. What does symbiosis really mean? How can we understand the complex interaction between microorganisms, plants and animals? How is self-organization related to being alive?
