The contaminated origin of life

Text: Sonia Fernández Pan and Anaïs Senli

Voice: Siegmar Zacharias
Sound: Camille Mandoki

This audio work is a speculative story that talks about oceans, crude oil, plankton, dust and bacteria to speculate with the idea of a cosmic, dark and unknown origin of life on Earth. In this way the narration seeks to investigate the possibility of a non-anthropocentric thinking and phenomenology that could serve as a survival strategy for the future.
