re-generating collective kinship
Hotspot is a participative experience of co-creating life through a synergy of cultural, natural and artificial interaction that reintroduces an ancestral, ecocentric understanding and engagement with the Earth.
In Hotspot, artificial intelligence acts as a cultural tool to regenerate our situated sensuous communication with the animate world around us; to create understanding without the use of symbols or language.
By listening through internal biosignals and expressing through electricity and air, Hotspot exposes our insides to the outside, and in doing so, brings the outside inside through a situated extra-sensory perception that moves beyond individuality and logic.

In doing so she breaks down barriers and binaries and overcomes the problematic notions of separation between the self and other.
