Screening
Starting from the case of the Amazon Forest, Forest Mind joins together different strands of knowledge on the metaphysics of plants and plant-man relationships. Combining scientific and shamanic knowledge, Forest Mind investigates the possibilities of cinema to represent the world from an ecocentric perspective, exploring new research methods that allow to fuse and convert digital and biological elements into a single strand of DNA.
On this occasion, Forest Mind is presented for the first time in Turin.
