Can plants teach us to imagine digital ecology practices based on a living, decentralised and impermanent memory?

For over a year, Valentina Vetturi has been observing and working with the Mimosa pudica plant, as an example of a plant capable of learning and storing information without a nervous system.

The lecture performance intertwines voice, images and theoretical texts in real time, in dialogue with the audience.

‘Mimosa Pudica’ is a project supported by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity of the Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities as part of the Italian Council programme (13th edition, 2024).
