Queer Forms of Life/Interconnected Nature


Queer forms of life a research-creation context to explore the possibilities of the emerging understandings of life by complexity sciences, biology, philosophy of biology, new media, and many others in art/knowledge creation/worlding. It has been created in the context of the 2nd cycle of the Suratómica Network named At the Edge of Chaos and Natalia Rivera's master project for the New Media Class at the UDK in Berlin.


Interconnected Nature: Internet for Bacteria is a speculative art-science (indisciplinary) research-creation project to generate an internet-bacteria symbiosis, that creates other possibilities for the Internet of Bio and Nano Things (IoBNT) besides the nature-extractivist and exploitative discourse of these under-developing technologies. It explores other possible inter-living-entities relations that embrace the uncontrollable nature of the living and sets aside human interaction among the mentioned entities.

Present Im/possibilities

New Media Class UdK


How do we go around a present that is evermore indeterminate, technologically mediated, and transversal to the artificial, natural, and cultural thresholds we once have known?

The students of the New Media Class at UdK Berlin are engaged with the creation and critical reflection of new technologies of communicating, feeling and sensing the unknown present and future. The exhibition is composed of projects – objects, installations, performances – developed during the global turbulence of the past two years, whose essence shed light into the ethos of our shared sense of time.
