Serena: I mean, right now I’m speaking out loud in my living room, but this probably will end up being a text that will accompany the, um, radio piece. So this work comes from studying my friend Elvira Garcia’s research, and I have been really inspired by her way of thinking of the materiality of gas and the erotics of it, and thinking about energy, infrastructure, extractivism, and other ways of thinking of gas outside of gas like CH4, methane or air that needs to be purified, um, following the idea of pureness and of inside [versus] outside. Elvira speaks about it in a way that for me was very eye opening. And I have carried, um, a research this year, very much inspired by studying her dissertation that [guided] me to reading about all the things, um, such as education and alternative schools and communication, communication as air, the breath as air and thinking about gas in a way that has felt a lot more like a methodology. Um, and the way that gas feels, um, is this invisible material that feels like it’s been very important to understand it as a real material thing and how to work with that, how to work with the invisible and how to work with the (un)known, but somewhere else in your body. This project is also a space for other associates to broadcast their own research and projects and other collaborations that have happened throughout the year.
Serena Mirambeau Brey is a Spanish-French multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker based in London. Trained in visual anthropology (MA, Goldsmiths, 2021), they developed a participatory practice rooted in conversation, collective storytelling, intimacy and pedagogy.
They work with an ADHD mind as methodology, in which each exchange opens a thousand tabs. This has produced docu-fictional projects exploring digital collapse, a kitchen-based DIY hyper-local TV programme, a boiler room that keeps broadcasting and the design of post-apocalyptic rituals. Lately, their interest has turned towards energy infrastructure and ecological anxiety.
