We are happy to announce the first videos from our Interdisciplinary conference Nonhuman Agents in Art, Culture and Theory are now being put online starting with the first panel from Friday 24 November, 2017: Other Subjectivities. Redefining Intelligence, Agency and Sentience

Here is the first speaker on the panel Rahma Khazam with her talk When the sardine can looks back... which really set the theoretical tone for the conference:

The next talk by Desiree Förster explored a new aesthetic of human/nonhuman relation through architecture and installations that extend human responsiveness to environmental stimuli, often by creating a symbiotic relationship between human and nonhuman entities:
