Topological Media Lab, in partnership with ISEA International, presents a co-curated selection of discursive events and artistic works from its core group of artist-researchers, as part of ISEA 2020.

From experimental panel discussions on Sensory Cosmologies to art works centred around sensorially augmented dissipative structure, dust, mist, and feedback ecologies, this selection provides a small window into ten TML researchers’ variously unique and diverse approaches in playfully engaging with the current ethos, philosophies, and dynamic research-creation streams of the atelier-lab.
