Abstract
As part of RIXC Open Fields Conference in Riga, Latvia (RIXC Art Science Festival 2016, 29.09 – 01.10. 2016), Shift Register will host a project launch workshop on Saturday 1st October at 14.30-16.00.
This launch workshop will examine through action, discussion and the construction of experimental situations responses to the potential un-earthing of both en-cycled and grounded technological and infrastructural impulses.
Questions to be addressed within the workshop include:
What is contained and released within global industrial process and how can we experience this materiality?
How can we access and experience these buried and atmospheric technical infrastructures (psychogeophysics)?
What could it mean to re-bury the technological (computation) literally in the earth, to view techno-ecology as a shift register in earth, sea and atmosphere within a context of global climate change/shifts?
How can we intervene within the multiple shifts (of register) which take place between earth-magnitude energies and the energies of constructed electromagnetic transmission?
How can we shift the assumptions of ecology into a non-pastoral and less than harmonious ecological thought?
