She is currently a PhD candidate at CREAM, University of Westminster, working on questions regarding time at extra-human scale. Much of her practice is interdisciplinary, projects include: Laboria Cuboniks, with whom she collaboratively wrote and published Xenofeminism, A Politics for Alienation in 2015 and A.S.T., a working group of artists, architects and curators focusing on urbanism and climate change. Bauer has screened/exhibited at Tate Britain, The ICA, The Showroom and FACT Liverpool, Deste Foundation, Athens, The New Museum, and Socrates Sculpture Park, New York. She has worked with Arts at CERN and was part of the team working on the German Pavilion at the 2021 Architecture Biennale in VeniceAndrew Goodman is a visual artist and writer with interests ranging from consciousness and generative algorithm design to process philosophy and ecology. His work encompasses concepts from the science of self-organisation, science fiction fabulations, queer and decolonial studies and activist ethics. His book Gathering Ecologies: Thinking Beyond Interactivity was published by Open Humanities Press in 2018. He teaches Visual Art and Environmental Humanities at La Trobe University, and is currently researching a book on rewilding and ecological ethics.Caio Silva is a Terran, multidisciplinary artist and researcher from Teresina, Piauí, Brazil. He is currently a Ph.D. candidate in Cultural Anthropology at Te Herenka Waka – Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. He is part of a Brazilian art collective called Baile Afrosamurai and has experience working with non-profit collectives and free access festivals in underprivileged areas.Renan Porto is an interdisciplinary researcher and writer conducting a PhD in Law and Theory at the University of Westminster. He is also part of the research group Law and Theory Lab and collaborator of the Hyphen Collective at the same university. His research explores the ecology of cocoa production in the northeast of Brazil, looking through this investigation how societies are shaped in a non-anthropocentric perspective. His writings span the fields of political philosophy, anthropology, law and literature, addressing issues such as contemporary capitalism, technology, political practices and theoretical contributions from literature to the law.Hanjo Berressem is Professor of American Studies at the University of Cologne. He has written books on Thomas Pynchon and Witold Gombrowicz and is the author of Eigenvalue: On the Gradual Contraction of Media in Movement (Bloomsbury 2018), and Gilles Deleuze’s Luminous Philosophy and Felix Guattari’s Schizoanalytic Ecology (both Edinburgh University Press 2019).Manuela Johanna Covini, 1960, lives and works in Berlin and Mexico City. Over the years, she has trained, studied and practiced professionally in various areas – including as producer and editor of two TV programmes in Switzerland. Her artistic work is concerned with how life goes beyond its own subjective limits. Unclear narratives deny the viewer orientation in time and place. Her projects explore the theme of simultaneity: simultaneity of space and time, of memory and present, of dream and reality, truth and lies… The digital image allows her to present her projects as a tangible, fictional universe in a distinctive visual vocabulary (as an aesthetically resilient material).Lydia Halcrow is an artist, researcher and teacher. Her recently completed practice-based PhD explored collaborative working processes with a landscape developed through slow walking and sensorial practices. The body of artwork that emerges forms mark-making techniques to record trace within a landscape, with a focus on the materials, textures and human debris encountered. The body of work was recently awarded the Burton Environmental Artist Award and is held in public and private collections in the UK and Internationally.Japhy Wilson is an Honorary Research Fellow in Politics at the University of Manchester. He is the author of Reality of Dreams: Post-Neoliberal Utopias in the Ecuadorian Amazon (Yale University Press, 2021) and Jeffrey Sachs: The Strange Case of Dr Shock and Mr Aid (Verso, 2014), and co-editor (with Erik Swyngedouw) of The Post-Political and Its Discontents: Spaces of Depoliticization, Spectres of Radical Politics (Edinburgh University Press, 2014).This colloquium held in conjunction with <a href="http://hy-phen.space/cloud-sediments-2022/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Cloud Sediments – Hyphen Lab</a>, an exhibition and events programme held at Ambika P3 in London and convened as part of Ecological Futurisms, an emerging collective of CREAM faculty and doctoral researchers who explore modes of togetherness and exposition in the face of growing and ongoing global and local challenges.<h3>Image credits </h3>Top: Lydia Halcrow/Owain JonesBottom: Manuela Johanna Covini
