Possessed by Microbes at Weld, November 30

Between 2018-2022 a group of artists and researchers from many European countries met, discussed, cooked, ate and made interdisciplinary art events about the microbes that humans live in symbiosis with. The members of the group share a deep interest in how humankind’s growing understanding about the microbes in the human body influence humankind’s understanding of itself and our place in the world. Their collective experiences form the basis for a publication that shed light on how microbes influence our health and our personality.

With the starting point in the book some of the contributors to the book will talk, together with the audience, how microbes influence our personality and behaviour. Maybe microbes can (partly) explain what possession and loss of self means?

Please join us for an informal talk Sunday November 30, 17.00 at Weld in Central Stockholm. Everyone is welcome, entrance is free and no booking required. Weld, Norrtullsgatan 7 (t-bana Odenplan)

113 29 Stockholm

The book is edited by Freddie Ross in 2022. It was designed by Erik MÄnsson. The publication is supported by LÀngmanska kulturfonden
