What if we could teach AIs to sing frequencies of repair and healing? This fascinating window into the world of artist Pia Lindman helps recalibrate understandings of what technology is and can be. She introduces a realm she calls the ‘subsensorial’ and describes the deeply embedded environmental awareness she has cultivated to navigate the entangled realities of a planet in crisis. Traversing subjects including humanoid robotics, Finnish mythology, and happy microbes (among others), listeners will gain insight into Lindman's practice of ‘healing as art,’ her years as a research fellow at MIT, and her upcoming presentation at the 2024 Venice Biennale. At a time when machine intelligences reach into nearly every facet of our lives, this artist illuminates a ‘Slower’ way forward—where machines not only collaborate with humans in more harmonious ways, but also become vital actors in the healing of our world. - Learn more about Pia Lindman: https://www.pialindman.com/   Also mentioned during this episode Kansanlääkintäseura Folk Medicine Society MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory CS1 Curatorial Projects Heidi Fast Aaron Edsinger Domo Vidha Saumya Jenni-Juulia Wallinheimo Heimonen - image: Pia Lindman standing in her installation Nose, Ears, Eyes at the 32nd São Paulo Bienal | photo by Guilherme Prado
