Wonder Machine
Online Performance at Building is Being symposium, curated by Esmee Geerken and Waag Society, Amsterdam. Building as Being moves away from a human-centred worldview to a holistic view of shaping our environment in accordance with non-human entities.
In Part 2. The Mind we ask how self-organization shapes the individual and collective human mind? How can we allow entropy and emergence in our collective thinking and what would this mean for our building strategies and how we enact with our ecosystem? With Prof. Dr. Brian Castellani, Orion Maxted and The Interactions Group who will perform a short demonstration of the Wonder Machine.

Wonder Machine
At Blend & Bleed symposium - curated by Carina Erdmann.The blending of realities, worlds and disciplines will be the focus of the online Symposium ‘BLEND & BLEED’, wich conjures synergies between the fields of performance, larp, game design and media theory.
The interactions gave a short performance and led a workshop in the Wonder Machine - An exercise in collective and continuous inquiry. Expect no concrete statement or predictions. In this collective mind one question will echo as a multitude of new ones. And in this rhythmic expression of wonder and doubt, a web of connected intuitions emerges.
Together with Guided Apophenia: Make your own conspiracy workshop by Reed Berkowic.

Negative Poetry
Online and at Museum of Science and Technology, Belgrade
Negative Poetry Human Algorithm is an online performance bridging collective thinking, theatre and complexity science. A computer made of people tackles the complex task of transforming a poem into its opposite, thereby generating a potentially infinite combinatorial polyphony of possibilities.
Negative Poetry Human Algorithm is a collaboration between Orion Maxted, Katarina Petrović and The Interactions group.
Supported by Museum of Science and Technology, Belgrade, Ilija & Mangelos foundation; the Institute for Advanced Study (University of Amsterdam) and Center Leo Apostel (Vrije Universiteit in Brussels), Ministry of Culture of Serbia.

Interactions Summer School
Collective Intuition
All thinking, including intuition, takes place in networks. Any network with sufficient connectivity, feedback and self-correction will produce a kind of thinking. The kinds of thinking that can take place is affected by the composition of the network - which can be an individual, or a group of people engaged in reciprocal collective activity. During the Summer School we shall be attempting to let go of rendering finished ideas at the level of individual intelligence, and embrace individual un-finishedness in order to distribute thinking across many people and cultivate emergence at the level of the collective mind, to experience hybrid new forms of thought.
