What if filmmaking could create a forest? This hands-on workshop explores cosmotechnical storytelling through collective tarot reading and intuitive filmmaking and is led by Sun Park and Chiemi Shimada.
Cosmotechnics is philosopher Yuk Hui’s idea that every culture develops its own technologies through its unique relationship to cosmos and ways of knowing. We will use tarot and oracle cards to engage with deep intuition and the alchemical processes by which individual creativities become a forest of their own. We will listen and read together to create our own cosmology, then re-read images, assign them new meanings, and grow a visual language for a film made on Super 8 cameras. The film that emerges will be authored by all of us and owned by none of us.
