As humans, we perceive our surroundings not only through our bodies but also through tools and interfaces that expand our perception. ‘Ways of Sensing’ invites us to explore non-human modes of sensing—both technological and ecological—while examining the interactions between different beings.
Enter a techno-ecological landscape inhabited by alien species that function as machines, shaped by natural forces. In the work of Sunjoo Lee and Ko de Beer, wind and bird migration data animate wind harps shaped like large eggs, while the beehive-like sound work by Stef Veldhuis makes the electric signals by bees audible. In Adam Centko‘s virtual simulation, a natural environment is perpetually constructed and deconstructed by human interference and the overheating of computers.
