[CANCELLED] Ampersand Paris: Life Amongst Decay: Fermentation Talk

Ampersand Paris (they/them) is an interdisciplinary performing artist and fermentation revivalist. Their current practice is coining and cultivating a trans-microbiopolitic for making and being. They concern themselves with taking care of nearly invisible things: bacteria, yeast, lines of code, and the liminal space of trans existence. Their overlapping processes of fermentation, decomposition, self-portraiture, computer programming, and performance improvisation build relationships to these invisible forces and illuminate their world-shaping impacts. Their desire is to learn the technologies of the small in order to care for big transformations necessary to survive, if not effervesce, in climate ruin.
