3000 YEARS AMONG MICROBES
A narrative of kinship and symbiosis that begins with Djulis and its kindred. 3000 Years Among Microbes is a speculative project in collaboration with Rae Yuping Hsu, Chi Pohao, and Nancy Valladares, crossing between the domains of science fiction, generative sound, and filmmaking. In collaboration with artist, scientists, and researchers, it asks questions about space futures and inter-planetary multispecies imaginaries.
