This is an event composed of two artist presentations followed by a joint Q&A.
In this talk, the keynote speaker will explore some ideas on the ontology of the social and relate it to the metaphysics of the senses in order to make the argument that cultural practices are not only based on an implicit ontology of the social but also on the belief that the social is sensorially accessible.
The keynote speaker argues that sensing entails positioning oneself at the very edge of a phenomenon – inhabiting the liminal – in order to observe a field of rapidly morphing forces. Drawing examples from landscape archaeology to glaciology and environmentally-informed art, she will explore environmental sensing as rhythms, vibrations, bandwidths, resonances, and frequencies that create fluid and liminal sense-impressions of an unresolved natural process, and through it, opportunities for remapping and rephrasing the criss-crossing umwelts of the planetary sensorium.
The theme of the hybrid event this year is Mental Health and Neuroscience. This is the chance for students to discover the most recent advancement in the scientific field of Psychology.
