SUPERORGANISM #1
(2020)
author(s): Simona Koch
published in: Research Catalogue
Philosopher and biologist Herbert Spencer described society in 1851 as a superorganism with organs, growth and disappearance. Later biologist William Morton Wheeler then used the term superorganism (1910) in relation to his work on ants. Since then, the idea has been developed in many directions.
The work "SUPERORGANISM #1 – Bengaluru" is inspired by a residence at the NCBS (National Center for Biological Sciences, Bangalore, India) and the conversations with various scientists, as well as the experience of the intense and vivid megacity of Bangalore.

Creative Centre for Fluid Territories (CCFT), is a peripatetic international research group that contributes to discussions about interdisciplinary practices and how they articulate critical insights about placemaking, belonging, and occupation.
Building on last year’s contribution to buffer fringe 2019 - ‘The Urban Glenti’ - CCFT proposes to create a unique dialogical and negotiated creative exchange to take place on-line within a dedicated exposition: Images, sounds, texts, interviews, moving image are going to be used to contest the idea of fixed documentation in order to acknowledge how our relationship to places are not static and where conflict/tension/uncertainty also defines the creative process itself.
CCFT’s work methodology builds on established mutual respect; track record and insight, rooted in a continued collaborative relationship that has emerged through trust and dialogue. Our focus is on practice-based research methods exploiting the creative intersection between image and text, presented as performance, publication, installation, architectural work, design intervention, music works, and spatial practice. In the intersection of these formulations, we seek to explore the expanded concept of “the atlas” as a dissemination strategy. ATLAS – the order of memory - simultaneously linear and cyclic, ordered and labyrinthine, open to infinite interpretation and analysis — a form of mnemonic iteration – physical and virtual.
