Nonhuman Nonsense

We are Nonhuman Nonsense, a research-driven art and design collective working in the realm of social dreaming and world-making. Our projects engage with the nonhuman: animals, objects, ecology, technology, and the spectres between and beyond categories.We see nonsense as an antidote to “common sense” – embracing paradoxical stories to explore the ethical and metaphysical layers of our relationship with the (nonhuman) world. We create contradictory scenarios & propositions in which we appropriate ideas from fields such as science, computing, law and mythology. Our projects take various forms - interactive installations, workshops, short films, public sculptures, campaigns, chatbots and books.We enjoy curiosity, cherish compassion, and recognize that separating the human from the nonhuman is nonsense.We frequently collaborate with other beings, including scientists, researchers and friends but at the core consist of 3 people - Leo Fidjeland, Linnea Våglund, and Filips Staņislavskis, based between Amsterdam and Stockholm.
