This field trip was an immersion in the academic life in Phoenix, specifically ASU's [[http://www.labforcriticaltechnics.com/|Lab for Critical Technics]] and [[http://synthesis.ame.asu.edu/|Synthesis Center]]. Our primary modes of exploring the field were structured and unstructured conversations and [[futuring]]. We developed [[concepts]], [[propositions]], and plans for [[publications]]. In an experimental open space workshop we explored the concepts using different modalities; a collective alchemical reading (of Quickening), energetic fields in a systemic constellation; embodied listening of diverse soundscapes; historiography in docufiction ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQ54DdUSwRk|The Last Angel of History]]), intimate writing about sacred objects, attunement to desert totems, hearing about [[https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/868923.The_Imperative|The Imperative]] while drinking tequila after sunset... | This field trip was an immersion in the academic life in Phoenix, specifically ASU's [[http://www.labforcriticaltechnics.com/|Lab for Critical Technics]] and [[http://synthesis.ame.asu.edu/|Synthesis Center]].

Occasionally we would venture beyond campus, guided by our very own 'artists' sherpa'. We explored [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superstition_Mountains|the Superstitions]] and the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piestewa_Peak|Piestewa Peak]], [[https://www.phoenix.gov/parks/trails/locations/papago-park|Papago]] and [[https://www.facebook.com/pages/Moeur-Park/119836564731852|Moeur]] parks, the [[http://superstitionmountainmuseum.org/|Superstition Mountain Museum]] and the [[http://www.pueblogrande.org/|Pueblo Grande]] ruins. We experienced a silent [[http://www.museumofwalking.org/events/2017/12/3/full-moon-walk|Full Moon Walk]] with the Museum of Walking and found a site for [[https://fo.am/dust-and-shadow-walk/|FoAM's audio-walk]]. Attuning to the academic environment inevitably involved paperwork, meetings with students and faculty, including Angela Ellsworth, Adriene Jenik, Luke Kautz and Heather Lineberry. We gave a lecture (adapted from [[https://medium.com/aperiodic-mesmerism/in-anticipation-24c87c34a34f|In anticipation]]) and treated the visitors to a clandestine FoAM Apero. | Occasionally we would venture beyond campus, guided by our very own 'artists' sherpa'.
