Media Files==== Dust and Shadow ==== //Pulvis et umbra sumus. We are but dust and shadow. –Horace// ==== Dust and Shadow ==== Dust and shadow is FoAM's contribution to a transdisciplinary research and residency programme at the ASU (Arizona State University), exploring environmental issues specific to the desert of the North-American Southwest. We combine philosophical inquiry with speculative design and action research to explore divergent approaches to desertification (both ecological and cultural), zombie-utopias, panpsychism, beyond-human relationships and probabilistic future preparedness. In collaboration with The Global Institute of Sustainability (GIOS), Laboratory of Critical Technics (LCT) and the Synthesis Lab of the Arizona State University (ASU). * fragments https://d-u-s-t-and-shadow.tumblr.com * photos https://www.flickr.com/photos/foam/sets/72157681429258454 * FoAM activity page: https://fo.am/dust-and-shadow/ ==== Field trips / Field notes ==== * [[dust and shadow/fieldtrip 1]] / FieldNotes #1: https://medium.com/@foam/dust-and-shadow-field-notes-1-48e94d02540b * [[dust and shadow/fieldtrip 2]] ... {{>http://www.flickr.com/photos/zzkt/25435689083/}}\\ ==== timecycles ==== How all of this might unfold (TBC and subject to change without notice) * Spring 2017 (may/june): fieldtrip, observations, questions, travelogue, etc. \\ * Summer 2017 (july/august): articulating research questions, literature research, mapping, etc.\\ * Fall 2017 (end november -> ~15th december): FoAM presentation/talk at LCT, research retreat, formulating hypotheses/propositions for experiments, commonplace publication pt1\\ * Spring 2018: temporary FoAM lab @ ASU: prototyping, experiments (first iteration), FoAM's 'injections' in (graduate) courses (?), commonplace publication pt2 (fieldguide for further experiments)\\ * Fall 2018 (or spring 2019): Second action research cycle, ending in a public experiment, printed publication (and possibly an 'exploded publication' in the form of an exhibition)\\ * (+ continuous online documentation)\\ {{>http://www.flickr.com/photos/foam/34924661822/}}\\ ====publication(s)==== {{::img_6461.jpg?300 |}}\\ [...] ==== Reader vol.I ==== * in progress -> [[dust_and_shadow/reader_1]] ====Bibliographic==== * https://www.zotero.org/groups/dust_and_shadow/items * [[dark_ecology_morton|dark ecology]] * http://tinyletter.com/hautepop/letters/disturbances-12-anti-modern * romantic machines, [[panpsychism]], animism, etc, vegetal mind, human scale systems, non-human technologies * [[the mushroom at the end of the world]] as counterpoint to [[in the dust of this planet]] * [[https://www.thersa.org/globalassets/pdfs/reports/spiritualise-report.pdf|Spiritualise]], Revitalising spirituality to address 21st century challenges (RSA report) * [[https://medium.com/@schoolofmyth/a-counsel-of-resistance-and-delight-in-the-face-of-fear-91ddb91dc415|A counsel of resistance and delight]] * [[https://www.opendemocracy.net/transformation/ronan-harrington/why-spirituality-is-key-to-more-visionary-politics|Why spirituality is key to more visionary politics]] * [[http://dark-mountain.net/blog/2016-you-want-it-darker/|You want it darker]] * [[http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v466/n7310/full/4661046a.html|Sensing nature]] * [[https://medium.com/@bruces/the-temporary-autonomous-zone-1991-ffdc0f6cfe31|The TAZ]] * [[https://www.artsy.net/article/artsy-editorial-why-witchcraft-is-making-a-comeback-in-art|art and witchcraft]] (and Adam Nocek's Reclaiming Witchcraft) * [[http://pica.org.au/show/radical-ecologies/|radical ecologies]] * [[http://www.wilderness.net/NWPS/legisAct#2|The American Wilderness Act]] of 1964 * etc. * https://sandsystems.org/ * http://dark-mountain.net/blog/the-devils-door-a-call-for-contributions-to-issue-12/ * http://dark-mountain.net/blog/in-other-tongues-ecologies-of-meaning-and-loss/ * reading notes for [[humankind_notes|Humankind: Solidarity with Nonhuman People]] * [[https://blog.faridrener.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/abrams-the-spell-of-the-sensuous.pdf|The Spell of the Sensuos]] * http://www.decolonize.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/postcolonial-studies-reader.pdf * http://www.maitres-fous.net/Ungar.html * http://www.biosferanoosfera.it/scritti/Why%20I%20became%20a%20Panexperientialist.pdf {{>http://www.flickr.com/photos/deziluzija/albums/72157681689191812}}\\ <blockquote> We no longer have roots, we have aerials.
