The final 3 shots for "Playing God", a piece about the possibilities and predictions made on the topic of genetic modification. The project focuses on the idea of human clones, born to serve a purpose - in this case creating humans for organ farming, having fresh living "meat" available for use when needed.
The fifth volume of Stadtklang, the UCL Urban Laboratory music night, took place on Sunday 20 March at Somerset House as part of the 'Venturing Beyond: Graffiti and the Everyday Utopias of the Street' exhibition.
Writer and theorist Kodwo Eshun of The Otolith Group was in conversation with Ayesha Hameed - co-editor of a new book ‘Visual Culture as Time Travel’ and lecturer in the Department of Visual Cultures, Goldsmiths, University of London - and Louis Moreno to discuss 'The Last Angel of History' - a video essay from the Black Audio Film Collective exploring informatics, technics, mutation, posthumanity and extraterrestriality.
The discussion centred on the film’s themes and its critical role in the production of new Afro- and other futurisms. Kodwo also played a playlist especially for Stadtklang offering his take on Afrofuturist sound. Benny Blanco and Nonsense from NTS Radio played sets inspired by cities, science-fiction and utopia.

Everything that ends has a new beginning. Human rose, dominated planet Earth in less than 3000 years, managed to achieve the very peak of "matters" civilization, and ended up almost destroying everything that matters...
To better understand what went wrong, in order to re-establish what humanity is consist of (after all, what is human without humanity), the cyborg race post-human conducted a thorough examination of human history, their religions, politics, emotions, hope and fear, thinking mechanism, behavior patterns, belief systems... all of which are more mythology than science to the cyborgs, for when one has already acquired a close to perfect body, and almost immortality, moral has no meanings... until they realized something is missing, a purpose of existence...
From the examinations, the cyborgs discovered the duality in human design, like the "0" and "1" in human's ancient data processing machines, very much like the planet's habitat in the age of old, there was a moon in the night that echoes the sun in the day, there were femininity on the right side of human's brain, to balance the masculinity on the left, when they were in balance, human managed to achieve harmony, but something upset that duality and suppressed the right side of their brains, and it was a slow death of humanity, and that is why in the end the "Elders", last of mankind, and the very first post-human cyborgs decided to eliminate that duality all together, and merge everything into ONEness, without sides, there would not be needed for balance... so they thought...
Is an irony, human with all their imperfection and imbalance, they managed to convinced themselves the purpose of living in their every waking moments... cyborgs achieved perfection and eliminated all possibilities of imbalance, lost their purposes...
So, they look at this statue created and left behind by the "Elders", they called it "Caduceus", and it is said that whoever understood the encryption shall be set free... ...

This project is part of the Ars Electronica Gallery Spaces Garden. German Lavrovsky’s project builds and documents, using a variety of media, a relationship with a reborn doll: a 3D-printed posthuman baby. Interacting with the doll, the artist explores questions of postgender reproduction, queer and feminist theories, bioengineering, and alternative configurations of family; and creates speculative practices of emancipatory coming into being. Around this practice, a community of artists, theorists and researches is being formed.

Living in Transit: The Thinkers of a World in Turmoil
War looms over Europe, uncertainty seeps into everyday life, and the weight of history presses upon the present. The world is burning, and yet—there are those who seek understanding, those who bury themselves in the quiet refuge of books, the dim glow of libraries, the solitude of knowledge.
This series captures the introspective minds of young academic women—readers, thinkers, seekers. They wander through old university halls, their fingers tracing the spines of forgotten books, pulling out volumes of poetry, philosophy, and psychology. They drink coffee, they drink tea, they stay up late with ink-stained fingers, trying to decipher the world through words.
They turn to Simone Weil for moral clarity, Hannah Arendt for political insight, Rilke for existential wisdom. They read Baudrillard to untangle the illusions of modernity, Byung-Chul Han to understand society’s exhaustion, Camus to grasp the absurdity of it all. They devour Celan’s poetry, searching for beauty in catastrophe.
But they do not just read—they reflect, they question, they write. Their world is one of quiet resistance, an intellectual sanctuary amidst the chaos. In their solitude, they are not alone. Across time, across history, across the pages they turn, they are in conversation with those who, too, have sought meaning in troubled times.
This is a series about thought in transit—about seeking, reading, questioning, about the relentless pursuit of knowledge when the world feels on the brink.
Where the Thinkers Go
They gather where the dust has settled,
where books whisper in the hush of halls.
Pages thin as breath, torn at the edges,
cradling centuries of questions.
They drink coffee like it’s ink,
trace words like constellations,
follow Rilke into the dusk,
where solitude hums softly in the dark.
Outside, the world is fraying—
war threading through the seams of cities,
the weight of history pressing forward.
Inside, they turn pages, searching
for answers, for solace, for fire.
And somewhere between the lines,
between time-stained margins and fading ink,
they find the ghosts of others who
once sought, once wondered, once read—
and they do not feel alone.
Three Haikus
Night falls on paper,
books stacked like silent towers,
thoughts burn in the dark.
Tea cools in the cup,
a poem lingers on lips,
war rumbles beyond.
Footsteps in silence,
the scent of old ink and dust,
pages turn like ghosts.
ooOOOoo
Reading as Resistance
These young women do not read passively. They underline, they take notes, they write in the margins. They challenge the texts and themselves. They read because the world demands it of them—because, in a time of conflict and uncertainty, thought itself is an act of resistance.
Their books are worn, their pages stained with coffee, their minds alive with the urgency of understanding.
1. Political Thought, Society & Liberation
Essays, theory and critique on democracy, power and resistance.
Chantal Mouffe – For a Left Populism (rethinking democracy through radical left-wing populism)
Nancy Fraser – Cannibal Capitalism (an urgent critique of capitalism’s role in the destruction of democracy, the planet, and social justice)
Étienne Balibar – Citizenship (rethinking the idea of citizenship in an era of migration and inequality)
Silvia Federici – Caliban and the Witch (a feminist Marxist analysis of capitalism and gender oppression)
Didier Eribon – Returning to Reims (a deeply personal sociological reflection on class and identity in contemporary Europe)
Antonio Negri & Michael Hardt – Empire (rethinking global capitalism and resistance from a leftist perspective)
Thomas Piketty – Capital and Ideology (a profound analysis of wealth distribution, inequality, and the future of economic justice)
Mark Fisher – Capitalist Realism (on why it’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism)
2. Feminist & Queer Theory, Gender & Body Politics
Texts that redefine identity, gender, and liberation in the 21st century.
Paul B. Preciado – Testo Junkie (an autobiographical, philosophical essay on gender, hormones, and biopolitics)
Judith Butler – The Force of Nonviolence (rethinking ethics and resistance beyond violence)
Virginie Despentes – King Kong Theory (a raw and radical take on sex, power, and feminism)
Amia Srinivasan – The Right to Sex (rethinking sex, power, and feminism for a new generation)
Laurent de Sutter – Narcocapitalism (on how capitalism exploits our bodies, desires, and emotions)
Sara Ahmed – Living a Feminist Life (a deeply personal and political exploration of what it means to be feminist today)
3. Literature & Poetry of Resistance, Liberation & Exile
European novels, poetry and literature that embrace freedom, revolution, and identity.
Annie Ernaux – The Years (a groundbreaking memoir that blends personal and collective history, feminism, and social change)
Olga Tokarczuk – The Books of Jacob (an epic novel about alternative histories, belief systems, and European identity)
Édouard Louis – Who Killed My Father (a deeply political and personal exploration of class struggle and masculinity)
Bernardine Evaristo – Girl, Woman, Other (a polyphonic novel on race, gender, and identity in contemporary Europe)
Maggie Nelson (though American, widely read in European academia) – On Freedom: Four Songs of Care and Constraint (a poetic, intellectual meditation on freedom and constraint)
Benjamín Labatut – When We Cease to Understand the World (a deeply philosophical novel on science, war, and moral responsibility)
Michel Houellebecq – Submission (controversial but widely read as a dystopian critique of political passivity in Europe)
4. Ecology, Anti-Capitalism & Posthumanism
Texts that explore the intersections of nature, economics, and radical change.
Bruno Latour – Down to Earth: Politics in the New Climatic Regime (rethinking ecology and politics in a world of climate crisis)
Andreas Malm – How to Blow Up a Pipeline (on the ethics of radical environmental resistance)
Emanuele Coccia – The Life of Plants: A Metaphysics of Mixture (rethinking human and non-human coexistence)
Isabelle Stengers – Another Science is Possible (rethinking knowledge and resistance in an era of corporate science)
Kate Raworth – Doughnut Economics (rethinking economic models for social and ecological justice)
Donna Haraway – Staying with the Trouble (rethinking coexistence and posthumanist futures)
The Future of Thought
These are not just books; they are weapons, tools, compasses. These women read not for escapism, but for resistance. In a time of political upheaval, climate catastrophe, and rising authoritarianism, they seek alternative visions, radical possibilities, and new ways of imagining the world.
Their books are annotated, their margins filled with questions, their reading lists always expanding. Knowledge is not just power—it is revolution.

Dr. Adolfo Vásquez Rocca 4
INTRODUCCIÓN:La obra en su primera parte muestra como Sloterdijk pasa de la definición deHeidegger del hombre como ser arrojado al mundo y ser para la muerte, hasta la visiónmuy distinta de Lévinas, con quien coincide, de la muerte como una invitación a unanueva trascendencia a partir de una relación radicalmente inédita de apertura éticahacia el otro y hacia lo Otro, cuestión que se entrevera con la conciencia trágica, con ladesesperanzada lucidez provocada por las dos guerras mundiales, por Hiroshima, porAuschwitz, ante todo, por el terrorismo y por el contraterrorismo global, cuya lógica hamostrado en Temblores de Aire “la amenaza del exterminio total"; algo que hainspirado su idea del filósofo como aquel que ejerce la vigilia o la vigía del mundo.Pocos intérpretes de Heidegger han descubierto, indica Sloterdijk, que bajo elsensacional título programático de Ser y tiempo se esconde también un tratadogerminalmente revolucionario sobre Ser y espacio. El encanto de la analítica existencialdel tiempo heideggeriana ha hecho pasar por alto el hecho de que está anclada en unacorrespondiente analítica del espacio, así como que ambas, a su vez, se fundan en unaanalítica existencial del movimiento. De ahí que sobre la doctrina de Heidegger de latemporalización e historicidad -la ontocronología- haya una copiosa bibliografía einvestigación sobre su teoría del movimiento u ontocinética, y sobre susplanteamientos germinales en torno a una disposición originaria del espacio uontotopología, prácticamente nada. Por ello Sloterdijk sostiene que Heidegger pasademasiado rápidamente de la pregunta por el 'dónde' a la pregunta por el 'quién',perdiendo la oportunidad de explorar la inmensa diversidad de los universos de laespacialidad humana. Esta centralidad y diversidad de significados de los espacioshabitados constituye, en cambio, el propósito principal de la obra sistemática deSloterdijk en

The fifth volume of Stadtklang, the UCL Urban Laboratory music night, took place on Sunday 20 March at Somerset House as part of the 'Venturing Beyond: Graffiti and the Everyday Utopias of the Street' exhibition.
Writer and theorist Kodwo Eshun of The Otolith Group was in conversation with Ayesha Hameed - co-editor of a new book ‘Visual Culture as Time Travel’ and lecturer in the Department of Visual Cultures, Goldsmiths, University of London - and Louis Moreno to discuss 'The Last Angel of History' - a video essay from the Black Audio Film Collective exploring informatics, technics, mutation, posthumanity and extraterrestriality.
The discussion centred on the film’s themes and its critical role in the production of new Afro- and other futurisms. Kodwo also played a playlist especially for Stadtklang offering his take on Afrofuturist sound. Benny Blanco and Nonsense from NTS Radio played sets inspired by cities, science-fiction and utopia.
With thanks to the Department of Visual Cultures, Goldsmiths, University of London, Approved (by) Pablo, Somerset House, and London Speaker Hire for their support.

Everything that ends has a new beginning. Human rose, dominated planet Earth in less than 3000 years, managed to achieve the very peak of "matters" civilization, and ended up almost destroying everything that matters...
To better understand what went wrong, in order to re-establish what humanity is consist of (after all, what is human without humanity), the cyborg race post-human conducted a thorough examination of human history, their religions, politics, emotions, hope and fear, thinking mechanism, behavior patterns, belief systems... all of which are more mythology than science to the cyborgs, for when one has already acquired a close to perfect body, and almost immortality, moral has no meanings... until they realized something is missing, a purpose of existence...
From the examinations, the cyborgs discovered the duality in human design, like the "0" and "1" in human's ancient data processing machines, very much like the planet's habitat in the age of old, there was a moon in the night that echoes the sun in the day, there were femininity on the right side of human's brain, to balance the masculinity on the left, when they were in balance, human managed to achieve harmony, but something upset that duality and suppressed the right side of their brains, and it was a slow death of humanity, and that is why in the end the "Elders", last of mankind, and the very first post-human cyborgs decided to eliminate that duality all together, and merge everything into ONEness, without sides, there would not be needed for balance... so they thought...
Is an irony, human with all their imperfection and imbalance, they managed to convinced themselves the purpose of living in their every waking moments... cyborgs achieved perfection and eliminated all possibilities of imbalance, lost their purposes...
So, they look at this statue created and left behind by the "Elders", they called it "Caduceus", and it is said that whoever understood the encryption shall be set free... ...
