Through (recorded) conversations and collaborations,  ro heinrich’s practice is transdisciplinary, with an emphasis on film- and bookmaking. Attentive to mobilising collective conversation, they collaboratively craft public screening and reading events, attuning with questions posed through their works. At the fertile edges of neurodiversity, process philosophy and black study, their research-creation practice is concerned with an aesthetico-political activation of different logics and worlds affirming nonseparability. ro recently began the Humanities PhD in research creation with Professors Erin Manning, Sher Doruff and Shira Avni as (co-)supervisors.

Diego Gil is an artist and philosopher exploring the life of aesthetic processes through the lens of process philosophy. Born in Buenos Aires, Diego lived and studied in Amsterdam (School for New Dance Development and DAS Choreography). After ten years of producing and showing his choreographic work across Europe (Tanz Im August, Tanznacht, Rencontres Chorégraphiques, Sommerszenne, ImpulsTanz, etc) he moved to Montreal to obtain his PhD at the Interdisciplinary Humanities program of Concordia University.

In Montreal, he has collaborated as a dramaturge and performer in the choreographic work of Maria Kefirova, Hanna Sybille Mueller, Lilia Mestre, Project Alter Dogs and Francois Bouvier. He has also worked intensively with the Sense Lab/3Ecologies project, a research-creation laboratory at the intersection of philosophy, art, and activism, in the organization of aesthetic-politic events.

Andrés Salas-Parra is an artist-researcher based between Montréal and Bogotá. His practice combines experimental film, ceramics, installation, archival research, and fieldwork to explore the material, affective, and geopolitical dimensions of emerging technologies, extractive infrastructures, and planetary change. Working through research-creation, he examines how rare and strategic minerals shape relations between scientific knowledge, colonial histories, landscapes, and more-than-human worlds. His work has been exhibited internationally. He holds a PhD in Humanities from Concordia University and an MA in Experimental Media from the Université du Québec à Montréal. His projects have been supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, the Canada Council for the Arts, the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec, and IDARTES (Colombia).

The 3Ecologies Project (3E) is an autonomous organization dedicated to participatory experimentation in research-creation, and ecological thought and action. It operates at the intersection of artistic practice, philosophy, and social engagement. 3E builds on the nearly two decades of experience of its parent organization, SenseLab, expanding its scope to include land-based activities on a wild stretch of forest three hours north of Montreal.

The artists, philosophers and researchers affiliated with the 3Ecologies Project collaborating in this public event, include Erica Biolchini, Ingrid Enriquez-Donissaint, Emma Flavian, Diego Gil, M Gnanasihamany, Pauline Lomami, Erin Manning, Brian Massumi, Mie Natius, Matthew-Robin Nye, Natalie Pavlik, and Andrés Salas.
