Phytogenesis: entanglements in more-than-human worlds
A dialogue around the newly enlivened subject of vegetal life, in response to the "pressing ecological, demographic, geographical and economic challenges faced by contemporary society" (Coole & Frost: 2010). With critical awareness, conceptual rigour and ethical sensitivity, the exchange of philosophical and creative imaginings with art and real-world practices allow for emergence of potentially fertile spaces in which research, collaboration and activism can take root and grow.
