WEIRD/QUEER/INDETERMINATE FORMS OF LIFE
What are those queer forms of life that emerge from the interaction among arts, biology and technology? - The methodology of this group is the collaborative research, with the purpose of acknowledging, mapping, and gathering life forms other than organic life as we know it up to now. It is an open question about what we define as "the living" and its possibilities of being created from the arts, as proposed by the researchers Iliana Hernández, Raúl Niño, and Carlos Eduardo Maldonado.
Queer/weird/Indeterminate forms of life explores the current question about the definition of life, regarding non-organic life, virus, AI, synthetic biology, and many other fields. The project seeks to generate a context where to articulate the indeterminate, the weird, the queer with the definition of life as a complex system. The initial phase aims to explore the current and emerging media to study life, model it, create simulations, and materialize it.
Through an open and collaborative group, framed in the Suratomica's Creation Groups, this research is part of Natalia Rivera's research/creation project at the New Media Class of the Berlin University of Arts UdK.
Some queer forms of life or questions explored:
