In a world that is not at all far away, a “world without us”, people are replaced by machines, artificial intelligences are optimised by other AIs and algorithms are programmed by self-learning algorithms. This is how a radically different, post-anthropocentric world could come into being, in which non-human life forms prove to be more adaptable under certain circumstances than man himself.

The artists at the HMKV (Hartware MedienKunstVerein) in the cultural center Dortmunder U present a post-human ecology as a central theme. This new era, which has imperceptibly already begun, is the era of non-human players.

An exhibition catalogue shows scenes of excessive nature where man no longer plays a part. Nature, which almost seems to be artificial, is the central theme of an iridescent cover as well as the copper engravings of succulents that have long survived us.
