How could values and relations shift through the experience of aerosolar drifting?

The interdisciplinary talks program of the Aerocene Festival, on air from Olympiaberg, Munich 6—7 Sept. 2019, synthesises two research nodes of Aerocene’s open-access network of knowledge sharing and production: aeropolitics and aerochange. Bringing the intimate entanglements of economy, politics and ecologies to the fore, individual presentations reflect on how the multitudes of movements, whether human, capital, toxicity, political or cultural imaginaries, are shaping the era of climate crisis in the Anthropo-Capitalocene on Planet Earth, propelled up through the atmosphere and further, to the extended cosmic environment.

Open in spirit and encouraging participation of voices, the following discussions and related Think Tanks complete the Aerocene Festival Talks Program, providing a platform for awakening drifting imaginaries and the speculative prototyping of relations, governance and common values beyond the physical and immaterial borders of our time, towards other possible futures in Aerocene.
