Ruines as an ensemble seems to instrumentalise actions where form keeps fading away to release times and speeds; dimensions of multiplicities, extensive and intensive. Repetitions and differences. (…) The proposal delves both into the certainty and the improbability of the functioning and meaning of the machinery, and it does so as a resource and power of questioning. It explores the “nature” and dynamics of certain object articulations, manufacturing entities, users and interactors of these rituals in a critical process, of expansion and deconstruction of the imaginary –the neo-positivist, productivist and consumerist imaginary, among others. It reveals the machines, devices, objects and organisations that we deploy as we engage with the world. It displays and strains different ways of binding us with each other, from conquering, colonising positions and actions to those of mutually modifying coexistence, closer to world-becoming.
