Move Semantics: Rules Of Unfolding
Move Semantics: Rules of Unfolding troubles the speculative potentialities of organisms and intelligences across systems鈥攕eeking out and proposing strategic futures while reflexively considering the formation of the site of this inquiry itself.
This project reimagines the exhibition 鈥渟pace鈥� as laboratory, troubling these conceptual possibilities as a shared frame for translating and forecasting the intersecting roles of biome, body, built environment, media, and machine. These themes then extend into both the gallery experience as well as through online programs and extensions, offering participants both on site and virtual opportunities to engage with the processes and allies in question.
On site, visitors are invited to interface with the work of practitioners exploring these questions via activations across media, using the artist-driven prompts in the [MS]:RU Field Guide, QR codes offering expanded participation via mobile device, through the project archive (on and offline), and through on-site durational works.
Already designed across temporalities, the [Move Semantics_lab] bridges physical and virtual space, with a core intention of re-imagining curatorial, institutional, and archival possibilities for public activation and futurecasting. [MS]:RU will continue to evolve in virtual space over the course of the exhibition and beyond. Here, the curators offer further reconsideration and re/presentation of the Lab鈥檚 strategies in the framework of the public health crisis transforming our landscape, speculating on the adaptive evolution offered to culture work by this profound moment.
