ANCESTERFUTURISM
SEMINAL THOUGHTS ABOUT TECHNOSHAMANISM
“Where can we locate our ‚ancestrality’? Merely in the past, or also in our future? What are the ‚hyperstitions’ related to technoshamanism? What if dreams could be thought of as an untouched interstitial space? Could dreams help us to escape the Anthropocene? Hands and dreams on the Earth. What can ancient communities teach us about survival technologies?“
These are some questions that will guide a conversation around ancesterfuturism and technoshamanism.
FABIANE M. BORGES is a Brazilian artist, clinical psychologist and essayist based in Rio de Janeiro. She’s one of the articulators of the technoshamanism network and is currently co-organizing the II International Festival of Technoshamanism in Brazil. Her research is about Space-art, art, technology, shamanism, performance and subjectivity. Borges’ work can be denoted as an ‚immersive process‘ or ‚frontier experience‘, since her aim is to provoke deep bodily and perceptional experiences. She authored two books Domínios do Demasiado (Hucitec, 2010) and Breviário de Pornografia Esquizotrans (Ex Libris, 2010) and coordinated two other books with the media, art and technology network Submidialogia (Ideias Perigozas, 2010, and Peixe Morto, 2011).
