“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

Ecological communities of microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and archaea, which constitute the human microbiome, indicate a plurality in the human body that can no longer be seen as one, but as many. The oneness of the body emerges only in the specific space-time of the here-and-now, where it intra-acts and then dissolves into multiplicity that awaits its new becoming.        

Mycophone_unison is a sonic “biohacked” celestial map that serves as a navigation tool in the space-time of multiplicities, a sonic map of the intra-actions between the visitor and microbiomes of its creators.
