In this episode of Science Nation, host Sorin Badea (Radio Guerrilla) welcomes Andrei Tudose (Marginal.ro) to discuss the launch of the Unplugged project, exploring how artistic practice and scientific research intersect to reimagine human relationships with technology and environmental cycles.
Freshly returned from Ars Electronica Festival in Linz, Andrei shares insights on ecological artworks (such as Agnes Meyer-Brandis's ten-year+ research tracking tree migration) and introduces the impending Unplugged?. The project explores permacomputing, energy harvesting from compost, heat or wifi, and cross-city connections between Bucharest and Timișoara to align technological systems with natural planetary rhythms.
Science Nation is a weekly podcast and radio column, co-hosted by Sorin Badea and Andrei Tudose, on the Update show, at Radio Guerrilla.
Unplugged? is co-funded by the City of Timișoara through the Center for Projects and The Administration of the National Cultural Fund (AFCN).
