“We are of the universe – there is no inside, no outside. There is only intra-acting from within and as part of the world in its becoming.” 
– Karen Barad, Meeting the Universe Halfway, Duke University Press

Mycophone_unison in the spacetime of multiplicities serves as a navigation tool. A sound map of intra-action between three microbiomes of the bodies of its authors and the viewer. By pressing the fingerprint the viewer sends a signal to the map that processes it through the central celestial plate to the microbiomes that modulate it as a sound of unison. The multiplicities of the authors are heard as one for one brief moment in the here and now.

Mycophone_unison was developed by Saša Spačal, dr. Mirjan Švagelj and Anil Podgornik in collaboration with the Multimedia center KIBLA.
