“Recommendation: Rot (tubaria fungi) The old has to yield and sluice into the soil, to surrender sublime. A sacrificial transposition to feed ground fertile enough to feed new roots thickening with new power. We want to hear emergent voices. We want to see new faces leading to new places”
THE MEEP REPORT
What are the values, practices and ideals of a multiplicitous world?
The MEEP (Multispecies Engagement Evaluation Program, c. 2082) report was generated from a 3-day live-work, in which MEEP evaluators audited the Australian Network of Art and Technology and the 2022 SPECTRA symposium, assessing participant and organisational relations with species, forces, and agencies beyond the human.
Using sensory, somatic, conversational and visionary processes alongside empirical observation and field recordings, MEEP engaged and advocated for 900 species in attendance at the symposium, including animal, vegetal, fungal, atmospheric, lithic, and algorithmic persons.
The outcomes of these encounters were shared in two parts, a performance during A Ministry for Multiple Futures on the final day of the symposium, and as a 10-page report delivered to ANAT and featuring key findings and recommendations to safeguard more-than-human equity and representation within future ANAT SPECTRA symposiums.
