About the event
INVITATION OH ALEXANDER #001 _ Underground Networks
Touki Delphine’s Oh, Alexander is a series of open studio multidisciplinary presentations. In these informal, eclectic evenings, Touki Delphine highlight elements from one of their key sources of inspiration; Andrea Wulf’s ‘The Invention of Nature’ about the life and work of Alexander Von Humboldt. They link the inspiration to their recent work, and explore the distorted balance between nature, humans and technology. Oh Alexander evenings are in collaboration with compelling specialists and other creatives whose work relates to the theme of the edition.
In this very first pilot episode of Oh Alexander, Touki Delphine will host an open studio evening at their workspace in De Sloot Theaterbroedplaats in Amsterdam. The evening will include a presentation from scientist / mathematician Justin Stewart (followed by a Q& A), a sneak preview of Touki Delphine’s new installation ‘TRANSMISSION’ and an inspiring film or documentary related to the topic.
Justin Stewart is a doctoral candidate in evolutionary biology at VU Amsterdam and ecological data scientist at SPUN (Society for protection of underground networks). Stewart will share their presentation “The evolutionary biogeography of underground networks”, and will field a question and answer session following their presentation.
