D.O.UG._1-5 film at “The Future of the Contact Zone” Oct 18-19

From @e_flux

“The Futurological Congress is a hybrid artistic, intellectual, and speculative gathering—part exhibition, part symposium, part performative scenography. The Bergen chapter focuses on the ‘contact zone’: charged spaces where species, systems, and sensibilities converge. Today, these zones extend far beyond physical terrains into algorithmic ecologies, multispecies entanglements, and the blurred boundaries between human and machine.

The Futurological Congress was developed in 2016 by Julieta Aranda @julietaranda and Mareike Dittmer @mareikesan . The presentation in the framework of the Bergen Assembly @bergenassembly has been co-organized with David Rych, and it is conceived as a hybrid artistic, intellectual, and speculative arrangement—a convergence of exhibition, symposium, and performative scenography. Drawing inspiration from Stanisław Lem’s iconic title, the congress unfolds as a multi-layered platform where critical inquiry meets imaginative projection.”
