Description:Q3511

The publication Orgs: From Slime Mold to Silicon Valley and Beyond is an experimental survey of decentralised organisms and organisations drawing on several perspectives and presenting a constellation of different voices – the book itself an exercise in coexistence. Orgs expands upon work by artist Jenna Sutela, enmeshing writers and artworks together to consider new ways of thinking through Donna Haraway’s proposition of joint kinships with “animals and machines” and… single-celled organisms. Learning from the nocturnal slime mould, the collected material tends to see light in a hive-like subjectivity, one based on interactions rather than essences. Unity in diversity.
