It’s always the same: the point is that on the one hand we are in danger of burning up, of evaporating, of going too fast, of dissolving, and on the other hand we are in danger of freezing, rigidifying, of becoming mummified and unable to move. Dizziness contains within it both extremes.
The one-day symposium titled ‘Agents of Confusion!’ brings together artistic and cross-disciplinary research on dizziness, with speakers from the fields of philosophy, visual arts, creativity research and cultural studies in the form of screenings, artists’ talks, lectures and discussions.
Curator Marianna Vecellio gives insights to her transdisciplinary curatorial practice and interspecies artistic research focused on compost. Alongside the theorical practice she will describe COMP(H)OST, a transdisciplinary project in dialogue with speculative thought and the human and social sciences.
