A year has gone by since our AWAI Global Forum 2022, "Re-Encountering Animism: Arts of Relating with the Worlds of Life," held on Dec 3-4, 2022. To celebrate this moment and show our appreciation, we are making ALL archives free on YouTube.
How do animism and myth open up channels to more-than-human worlds? What makes them so important today? We explored these questions by diving into anthropology, art, mythology, food, agriculture, fashion, speculative design. Take a peek at this cross-disciplinary conversation!
