Stephen Baxter, a renowned science fiction author and SETI researcher, has an extensive body of work, including numerous books and research publications. As a founding member of the UKSRN (the UK’s SETI Research Network), he has been a driving force in the field of post-detection. He is also a member of the SETI Post-Detection Hub at St Andrews. Stephen Baxter reflects on a lifetime writing hard science fiction, and what researchers in post-detection SETI may learn from the serious and playful business of constructing worlds and imagining contact. https://peertube.seti-hub.org/videos/embed/a866ebbd-b921-46fe-bf6c-640e7f20cf1ehttps://peertube.seti-hub.org/w/vNus8nd1w326krzL3StFtGhttps://peertube.seti-hub.org/lazy-static/thumbnails/0c649c22-1962-48c1-ae18-2487267b09f4.jpgWhat Is Entwine?

Bioleft is a network of plant breeders and a seed archive growing a protected commons in germplasm. Almendra goes into the origins and development of Bioleft, growing a collaborative network to resist the relentless financialisation of natural resources and patenting of seeds, and shares her vision for vital soil futures. Ecologies, Technologies is an explorative hybrid programme on ecological thinking, creative resistance and the new commons, hosted online and at Schumacher College in 2023 with the Ecological Design Thinking MA. Each online session is a conversation around community activism, creative practices and technologies that challenge colonial narratives and embrace reciprocal relationships with the land and other beings. Open sessions run every other Wednesday at 17:00 until 18:30 UTC. The sessions are free and open to all interested in creative ways of working with and understanding technologies on a damaged earth. Ecologies, Technologies
All welcome to explore the polycultures of ecology and technology in this free hybrid programme with Schumacher College.

This session brings together Ecologies, Technologies with artists and activists from The Sphere community. The Sphere is a Research Creation project that experiments in growing new ecologies of funding for the circus arts and supporting commons-oriented economies redistribute the risks and opportunities of making art together. Érik Bordeleau presents The Sphere’s evolution, ethos and experiments in funding using web3 technologies. Lene Vollhardt reflects on embodied LARPing - Live Action Role Playing - at the ConTempo Festival Kaunas, Lithuania to explore the Sphere’s future as a DAO. Ecologies, Technologies is an experimental programme held online by Kate Genevieve, Simone Johnson, Cassie Robinson and Becky Ayre, and at Schumacher College with Dr. Mona Nasseri's Ecological Design Thinking MA campus.dartington.org/ecological-design-thinking. The online Ecologies, Technologies programme is free and open to all interested in creative practice with ecologies, and re-thinking relations to technologies on a damaged earth. Sessions run January to March 2023, every other Wednesday at 17:00 until 18:30 UTC.

A conversation between artist and acoustic ecologist, Leah Barclay, and creative technologist Mix Irving, exploring technologies in service to communal creativity and cultural knowledge. Leah presents Beeyali, a collaborative creative research project with Lyndon Davies and Tricia King, exploring animal song and cymatics as calls to look after Country and endangered ecosystems. Mix walks us through the Āhau platform—a data platform developed by a Māori-led team in Aotearoa (New Zealand) focused on Māori data sovereignty. The goal of Āhau is to provide tools for whānau, hapū, and iwi (Māori families and communities) to securely manage data, preserve cultural histories, and protect whakapapa (genealogy). Ecologies, Technologies @ the Small is Beautiful Weekend This was the first hybrid session for Saturday’s Small is Beautiful weekend event, connecting the Ship Room at Dartington to speakers in Oceania. It features a special welcome from Trudy Lane, Trustee at Aotearoa's Intercreate Trust.https://peertube.seti-hub.org/videos/embed/a1897b3a-afc4-419b-9579-bab83c6a4a11https://peertube.seti-hub.org/w/vupwPkR8sVa3jFsa8uyMGnhttps://peertube.seti-hub.org/lazy-static/thumbnails/02be5c84-602e-4337-895a-36bed7bc5a8f.jpgPractice as a Portal: Fresh Dialogues between Earth & Outer Space | Lempert, De Paulis, SalazarA dialogue exploring how imaginative practices deepen approaches to the planetary and outer space. This conversation brings together artist Daniela De Paulis, Dr. Willi Lempert and Professor Juan Francisco Salazar to explore living connections across their research and creative work, including storytelling, scenarios, participatory practices and situated knowledges. What kind of fresh openings do emerging practices invite? How can urgent calls to decolonise and temper the ambitious extractive energies of the new space age be addressed amidst ecological crises and multiplying conflicts? The panelists share experimental, creative and transcultural approaches to outer space futures and the search for life beyond Earth, refreshing approaches to outer space research and SETI—the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

Through ethnographic work at the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO) in Armenia, she carefully uncovers the imaginaries that shaped ideas in the golden age of radio astronomy (1956-1976) and the study of extraterrestrial communication during the “CETI” period, before the field was renamed SETI. Through archives and interviews, Gabriela traces how the story of SETI rooted in Armenia during the Soviet era with the 1964 USSR Conference on Extraterrestrial Civilisations at BOA and the Observatory’s First Soviet-American Conference on Communication with Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CETI) in 1971. As Soviet radio astronomers sought to establish a scientific framework for communicating with extraterrestrial civilisations, their Armenian counterparts brought a distinct imaginary: one that linked cosmic contact to Armenia’s ancient astronomical heritage. Gabriela presents CETI as a relational and interdisciplinary endeavour, entangled in Soviet science-based imaginaries, the history of the space race and the international astronautical community, and political upheavals through the Prague Spring. This blending of scientific and historical imaginaries, combining the emerging field of radio astronomy with millennia-old traditions of celestial observation, positioned Armenia as an astronomical civilisation with deep temporal roots. These powerful imaginaries continue to shape contemporary perspectives on the earthly and extraterrestrial today.

In this dialogue Dr. Kershenbaum explores how animal communication, from wolf howls to whalesong, offers insight into communication and listening as ecological and planetary practice. This conversation is a fitting coda to the weekend of Reveil 12, a project that many of us in the network have been participating in over the last days, tuning in to live microphones around the world. Organised by Soundcamp + Locus Sonus + Wave Farm, Reveil streams the dawn chorus from mics across the planet over a 25 hour period.
