There lots of work by CIIP researchers in the latest special issue of Media + Environment: Wind as Model, Media, and Experience.

https://mediaenviron.org/issue/11242

Drawing together work from environmental humanities, media studies, and artistic practice, they propose and contribute to a new elemental field of study: the wind humanities.

With work by Ryan Bishop, Jussi Parikka, @maximilian, @jrcarpenter, Sasha Engelmann, @croopier, @richardacarter, & May Ee Wong.

This Thursday CIIP members Jussi Parikka and Ryan Bishop lead a multidisciplinary public seminar Weather Reports at John Hansard Gallery.

Blending embodied experience, data practices, and aesthetic production, this seminar aims to better our understanding of climate change through the medium of wind.

The event runs from 2-5:30pm and includes contributions from Sasha Engelmann, Elizabeth Kent, Richard Corne, Abelardo Gil-Fournier, Maximilian Hepach, Birgit Schneider, and a performance by JR Carpenter and Jules Rawlinson.

Today CIIP Co-directors Sasha Anikina, Kwame Phillips and Stephen Cornford are heading to Aarhus to lead a collaborative diagramming workshop and present their individual research.

On Tuesday morning we will collaboratively diagram the data and software systems on which all Universities have become dependent. The time of both students and staff are increasingly called upon to input, update, check, and action information stored in outsourced databases, producing value for external software providers, many of which are ultimately owned by private equity firms. Taking our lead from the practices of Mark Lombardi and Vladan Joler (among others), we see this diagramming exercise as a means to visualise the University’s integration into platform logistics and economies of data profiteering.

In the afternoon seminar, talks about our individual research will address the politics of images and sound as objects of research captured by various digital and scientific apparatuses and infrastructures.

Next week CIIP's co-founders Dr Alexandra Anikina and @stephen_cornford will present the research group and their own research practices at the Centre for the Study of the Networked Image at London South Bank University. Wednesday 6th March 15:00-17:00 at LSBU (BR-230, Borough Road).

Critical Infrastructures and Image Politics is a newly re-established research group at Winchester School of Art dedicated to investigating the politics of contemporary digital and visual cultures at the intersection of media art and critical theory. Building on the legacy of the Archaeologies of Media and Technology unit, we foreground transdisciplinary and practice-based methodologies of artistic and activist-led research in media and technocultures with specific interests in material infrastructures, critical posthumanities, algorithmic visual cultures, feminist and decolonial technocultures, and media ecologies.

On Tuesday 12th March CIIP are pleased to welcome artist, activist and curator Imani Jacqueline Brown for a guest lecture on Black Ecologies.

Imani's work investigates the continuum of extraction from settler colonial genocide and slavery to fossil fuel production and climate change. By exposing the layers of violence and resistance that form the foundations of settler-colonial society, her work opens a space to imagine paths to ecological reparations.

Imani's practice combines photography and videography, curatorial and archival research, ecological philosophy, legal theory, people’s / oral history, remote sensing, and counter-cartography. These strategies disentangle the spatial logics that make geographies, unmake communities, and break Earth’s geology. Her research is disseminated internationally through art installations, public actions, reports, and testimony delivered to courts and organs of the United Nations. Among other things, she is currently a doctoral candidate in the School of Geography at Queen Mary, University of London, a research fellow with Forensic Architecture, and an associate lecturer in MA Architecture at the Royal College of Arts.

Come study for a PhD in Outer #Space Resilience with one of our co-directors!

DEADLINE MARCH 6th.

Outer Space provides critical socioeconomic benefit and irreplaceable cultural value but is under threat from exponentially growing #satellite and #SpaceDebris populations. This project focuses on the cultural evaluation and measuring of space sustainability and such detailed aspects as the technically central term of “orbital carrying capacity”.
