CosmiKnots are envisioned as a creative network establishing temporary zones of activation to embody spirtual-ecological/decolonial concerns through live arts productions that stage critiques of contemporary issues and current events.

Much as cosmonauts command control of a spacecraft, we imagined our co-conspirators and ourselves as physics-defying autopilots journeying through a universal entanglement of embodied dimensions.

“Consumerism promises that magical transformations are easy, available on demand, and that *A SELF understood in TERMS of LIFESTYLES and PERSONALITY EXPERIMENTS*—rather than in terms of communal tradition, meaningful work, or the continuity of life experience—can be a worthy *expression of individual freedom*.
The true self, from this point of view, doesn’t precede the process of being encoded in social media; instead the real self — *real* in the sense of being influential — ***emerges through information processing*** (sharing, being shared, being on a social graph, having recommendations automated, being processed by algorithms, and so on). As information is processed and assimilated to the archive of self, it begins feeding into the *algorithmic systems* that report back to us the *true nature of who we are*.”
