🌀 Become the Octopus: A Workshop on Embodied Evolution 🐙 Join us tomorrow night at Recess for an immersive workshop that invites you to reimagine the human body and mind through the lens of our most fluid, intelligent, and adaptable cousins: the cephalopods. Led by interdisciplinary artist and researcher Miriam Simun, founder of the Institute for Transhumanist Cephalopod Evolution (ITCE), this session is part of the ongoing series How to Become an Octopus (and sometimes squid). Through psycho-physical practices, you’ll explore: 🌀 Tactile & Embodied Cognition: Enhance your sensory awareness by attuning to the world through touch, inspired by the octopus’s receptive suckers. 🌀 Shapeshifting Capacities: Develop hyper-local environmental awareness and the flexibility to adapt your form and social position for resilience. 🌀 Distributed Intelligence: Experience a decentralized approach to cognition, drawing from the octopus’s unique nervous system where three-fifths of neurons reside in its arms. This workshop is grounded in a reimagined transhumanism—one that embraces the body’s potential and draws inspiration from cephalopods to expand human perception, intelligence, and relationality. 📍 Recess, 46 Washington Ave. BK, NY 📅 Tomorrow Night, May 14th ⏰ Time:7-9 pm 🎟️ Free and open to the public No prior experience needed—just bring your curiosity and willingness to explore new ways of being. #HowToBecomeAnOctopus #TranshumanistCephalopodEvolution #MiriamSimun #RecessArt #EmbodiedIntelligence #SomaticWorkshop #CephalopodInspired #HumanEvolution #DistributedCognition (fb)
