SUMMARY:The Cosmopolitical Forest
DESCRIPTION:Arts Division\, Film & Digital Media\, History of Art & Visual Culture\, and the Center for Creative Ecologies presents: \nUrsula Biemann \nBased on comprehensive research\, Ursula Biemann elaborates in her video works the far-reaching territorial transformations due to the extraction and engineering of resources\, drawing attention to the biological and social micro-dynamics at work in these massive physical encroachments. Her recent fieldwork has taken her to vital forested regions in the Americas. Engaging with the political ecology of oil and water\, the artist interweaves vast cinematic landscapes with documentary footage and academic findings to narrate a changing planetary reality. Discussing her artistic practice in the projects Deep Weather and Forest Law\, Biemann particularly raises questions regarding the entanglement of aesthetics\, ecology and geopolitics.

SUMMARY:Subatlantic: A Screening and Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Arts Division\, Film & Digital Media\, History of Art & Visual Culture\, and the Center for Creative Ecologies presents: \nUrsula Biemann \nSwiss video practitioner Ursula Biemann will screen and discuss her recent speculative SF video essay Subatlantic (2015)\, addressing\, among related works and topics\, the interdisciplinary-discursive ecotone of geology and climatology merged with human politics and history\, as well as her essayistic storytelling and creative imaging. Set in the Shetland Islands\, Greenland’s Disco Bay and on a tiny Caribbean Island\, and occurring at the end of the 2\,500 year old Holocene epoch\, the video’s relational eco-geography captures moments of aquatic flows through invisible ocean streams and melting Arctic icescapes\, and reads this interconnected system as both a hyperobject (one of an expanded geo-space-time\, as Timothy Morton writes)\, and a modeling of intensive science and virtual philosophy (as according to Manuel De Landa). This event will compliment Biemann’s presentation in the Visual and Media Cultures Colloquium the following afternoon:
