“Mycological Metaphysics. Fungal Temporalities as Creative Act of Becoming” presented by Unknown presenters

The permeable professional boundaries between art, science and technology are increasingly challenging the perception and understanding of time and space. In particular, the realms of ecology and biology open up new possibilities for a post-anthropocentric, holistic understanding to (re-)contextualize an “Everywhen”. In a dialogue-based comparison, the following text contrasts and synthesizes Alfred Northern Whitehead’s process-philosophical theory with Merlin Sheldrake’s mycological studies on mycelium, the vegetative part of fungi. The focus is on the temporal understanding with a view to the dynamic and interwoven aspects of reality.
