[Splinter Session 03: Living Technologies] on Day 3 (8 Oct) – will focus on how the “relations between humans, other living organisms and machines” are experienced and expressed today, in the face of environmental crises, global pandemics and the war in Ukraine – splinters that raise fears of domination, and evoke a sense of the uncanny. Might they also point to a world of possibilities of becoming, creation of new forms and behaviors? Can we co-create more balanced forms of existence?

Day 3 will be hosted by the FeLT project team from Oslo, Norway, who are also co-founders of the Renewable Futures conference series. It will also feature the Green Revisited Book presentation by editors Kristin Bergaust, Jens Hauser and Rasa Smite.
