Plant Relations Lab (@wei.iyu @noora.yulia @stanbam1 @linseyrendell ) is hosting a reading circle this afternoon to collectively read and think-with texts from @jessicajlee @ninamingya @kyomaclear — and you’re invited ✨ This session is a pre-gathering to tomorrow’s colloquium: « Many-Tendrilled Reaching and Writing: A workshop on creativity, plants, and the craft of writing » with @jessicajlee 🌱✏️ Hosted by @hgkbasel_criticalmedialab and Plant Relations Lab, as part of the CML «Rehearsing» Thread and @hgkbasel_transversaldesign programme, the colloquium invites participants to consider how stories of migration and belonging transverse human and more-than-human experiences, approaching « reaching towards » as a method of getting as close as possible to life’s complexities — where fragments, gaps, and poetic interludes help us reach towards futures shaped by community, renewal, and justice. Warm thanks to @helenvpritchard for inviting us to co-organise this event 💚 ܁ . ⊹ ₊ ܁. @plantrelationslab is a practice space for exploring relationality with plants, soil, and digital-organic forms. It values process over product, working within soft containers that support slowness and emergence. The Transversal Design working group resists urgency and values dialogue and care as essential parts of knowledge-making.
