We are delighted to share the first episode of Hybrids: π π₯π€ππππ¨π© π¨ππ§πππ¨ focusing on the notion of hybridity as contagion, symbiosis, mesh and mixture.
How do distinct entities interact, feed from each other and combine, transcending their singularity and creating something new? Each episode will focus on exploring a manifestation of hybridity through the seemingly disparate lenses of dance, architecture, medical history, philosophy, ecology and gastronomy.
On the first episode of Hybrids, Theatrum Mundi programme curator, Andrea Cetrulo is joined by architect, illustrator and co-editor of Feral Atlas, Feifei Zhou. Feral Atlas is a digital project that documents and expands the understanding of what occurs when nonhuman entities become tangled up with human-made infrastructures. We will discuss Feifeiβs involvement with Feral Atlas, how she conceives and develops her illustrations for the site, and what her next project is about. How can architects and designers think about their role in creating and managing the world of the feral?
