IMPACT23 - Paola Bascón: Mineral Kinships

Introducing mineral touch

As you hold and touch a small stone,
I invite you to engage with it.
Feel its weight and texture,
recognize its shape and small details.

Take some time
and use your fingers as tactile microscopes
to magnify what might escape your eyes.

IMPACT23 - Sybille Neumeyer: Grounding Meteorology

»This is what a more-than-human politics actually looks like: the careful and conscious attention to the needs and desires of other lifeforms, the acknowledgement of their agency and value, and the willingness to adapt our existing structures of society towards a biocultural existence to better account for all of us.« (from ›global (s)warming‹, a meditative lecture; IMPACT23)
