“Radical Cosmologies”at ISEA2012 Albuquerque: Machine Wilderness
The ISEA2012 symposium will consist of a conference September 19 – 24, 2012 based in Albuquerque with outreach days along the state’s “Cultural Corridor" in Santa Fe and Taos, and an expansive, regional collaboration throughout the fall of 2012, including art exhibitions, public events, performances and educational activities.
The “Radical Cosmologies” theme will gaze at the universe and question our place in it. It will explore a wide range of creative perspectives and practices around the cultural, scientific and philosophical possibilities of contemporary astronomy. This theme will incorporate various forms of media, written word, performance and installation, as well as workshops, community-based actions, lectures and online projects to offer viewers fresh interpretations and experiences of cultural myths, indigenous histories and contemporary science.

The Ben Maltz Gallery at Otis College of Art and Design presented the exhibition The Future Imaginary, in 2009. The exhibition featured work by 11 artists whose work responded to the interactive novel The Imaginary 20th Century by Norman Klein and Margo Bistis.
Viralnet.net brought its project—Home and Garden to a natural conclusion by orchestrating a final exhibition designed as a tactical intervention into the Museum of Jurassic Technology and the Center for Land Use Interpretation (CLUI) in Culver City, California. The intervention was titled An Indirect Intention. It ran from June 17 to June 20, 2010.
