NEWS & EVENTS

We'll be on site Saturday September 18 for an Urban Farm Tour including: Swale Food Forest, Earth Matter, Grow NYC, and The Bee Conservancy. Discover a world of bees, compost, food forestry, art installation and play Dirtball! We'll meet here: google maps

The Urban Soils Institute will also be at the Swale Food Forest doing free soil testing (details). You can also see the new Fall Exhibitions at Swale House

As residents at Flux At ARoS we playtested a two player version of our postcard game The Other Question. The Other Question is a divination game about empathizing with non-human beings, and about the different time scales we exist on.

Come play Dirtball! We opened a Dirtball court on Governors Island Saturday July 17th!
The Urban Soils Institute was on-site doing free soil testing (details). As well as fellow Project: Soils Artists: Tessa Grundon and Makalé Cullen + Jason Smith, with Dr. Richard Shaw. You can find Dirtball in the Urban Farm google maps

Dirtball Crowdfunding Campaign

We’re excited to announce that we’ll be working with Swale House and the Urban Soils Institute to install a new Dirtball court on Governors Island in NYC this summer. Dirtball is a re-imagined basketball court where humans, plants, animals, minerals and microorganisms can play together to nurture soil and fight climate change at the same time.
You can dig in here and donate to help us write this love letter to dirt!

Dirtball & Multi-species Spa Party

Join us as we make a multi-species face mask and meditate on our relationships to parent material and time. Kosmologym will present Dirtball, both an in development suite of online/onsite games and a reimagined basketball court that frame the soil making process.
You’ll need a rock for the multi-species face mask. Full human/lichen/rock face mask recipe to follow. Simple multi-species face masks can also be made with live yogurt or beer. Full recipe: 1 pint milk, 1 teaspoon flour, 1 teaspoon yeast, 1/2 teaspoon gelatin, 1 tablespoon green algae powder, 1 tablespoon of dried mushroom powder, lichen flakes

Long Dash: Hamburg

Originally slated for this past May, The Long Dash: Hamburg has been redesigned to allow for social distancing. Join us at the Fundus Theater 31 Oct and 1 Nov to play.
3-4 players can take on city specific climate change resiliency strategies in the form of a dance challenge. Philadelphia and Copenhagen both have their own versions of the game and we are excited to add Hamburg. Learn more about the Long Dash here.

Dirtball: Fruiting Body for Art Prospect 7

Kosmologym joined more than 50 artists from 13 countries for The 7th Art Prospect Festival: Treasure Hunt, a hybrid online/onsite public art festival featuring interventions and Augmented Reality works around the world.
For the festival we have built a structural prototype of a soil monitoring buoy in the form of a giant overturned mushroom where the sky scratching mycelium host miniature components of a Dirtball court and a flag for the future DIY Dirtball.
More info about the festival

We joined the Ludic Liberation Lab for an early playtest of Swift Dance, a ridiculous analog interruption of a technology created to make the worker ever available, regardless of their location.
With a mirror you will turn the computer’s eye towards the sky. With stick and paper make a swift decoy. You are unavailable. A chimney swift has taken your place. More info here soon.

VEGA|Arts Golden Days

Kosmologym will introduce ASSEMBALL during Golden Days at VEGA.
Golden Days-fredagsfest med kunst, musik, dans og drinks

For 30 år siden faldt Berlinmuren. Grib en drink og dans dig gennem de metaforiske murbrokkerne, der forandrede Europa. For vi blander undergangsstemning med fremtids-optimisme og vrider både fordybelse og dansetrin ud af den 30-årige europæiske krop.

Du kan denne aften i VEGA nyde kunst og musik fra Kosmologym, Kristoffer Akselbo, INTET ALTID, Ellis May + Søren Thilo Funder. De giver alle deres bud på, hvad det vil sige at være en del af en europæisk bevidsthed i dag.

Kosmologym Invite (English)

Prepare to plunge into questions of bodily experience and translation of technological and systemic matter – and the other way around: Art’s ability to make new possible systems out of matter, code and movement. Kosmologym’s Calcium Dance & Ragnhild May’s TEKNO will both be introduced, performed and opened up as collective experiments encouraging us to reimagine the borders of the digital and analogue.

'The Long Dash: Copenhagen' er Kosmologyms nye legende tænketank, der gennem workshops og spil indsamler viden om Københavns forhold til klimaforandringer og det stigende havniveau.

Spillet udfordrer fire spillere til fysisk at bære padler formet som bykvarterer sikkert frem til år 2100. Padlerne er bundet sammen og indeholder hvert et lille hav. Undervejs udfordres spillerne med dansebevægelser, som repræsenterer måder, hvorpå København kan hjælpe sig selv og andre med at tackle klimaforandringer og stigninger i havniveau.

Den første Long Dash prototype blev udviklet til Philadelphia i forbindelse med Philadelphia Science Festival.
