Rural Technological Ecologies

This is an artistic intervention aided by software and hardware and it is not defined by functionality but the creative engagement of its parts.
This is soil story about milpa ecology, technology and ways of knowing.
The land is a source of identity. Land is the solid surface of the Earth.
Ancestral knowledge, languages, cultural practices and oral traditions built up over the millennia are all connected to the land. The values of reciprocity, respect, balance, and connection to spirituality are central to learning from the land. Learning from the land presents an opportunity for us to learn more about the histories and stories of the land and the beings that make our ecosystems.
The connection to the land has been disrupted through policies of colonization, assimilation, and genocide. Forced disconnection from the land has caused spiritual, emotional, physical, and mental damage to many beings on Earth.
Drawing on Indigenous and rural ways of knowing that have long recognized the significance of non-human modes of being . . .this interaction is trying to synthesise ways of communication with the soil; the soil that reaps our food systems and the urgent need to do so given the reality of looming ecological collapse.

abstract: >
A mini ecological artistic network, showing the
interconnectedness among planetary beings, highlighting
the symbiotic relationship between what we call natural
and artificial systems.
At the core of this network is a moisture sensor that acts
as a conduit between the soil and digital spaces. After
receiving signals, the sensor sends signals to the
computer, which then triggers specific content on a
webpage called Soil Comms. The content displayed is
dependent on the moisture level detected, creating a
direct, responsive link between the environment and
digital output.
