Geocinema
‘Geocinema’ is a practice that came to be during The New Normal a speculative urbanism think-tank in Strelka Institute for Media, Architecture and Design. By focusing on various sensing techniques— from fragmented satellite and ground station data transfers to systems that are able to predict seismic activities— the collective is interested in the feedback loops between processes of image-making, production of knowledge, geopolitical imaginations and terraformation.
