In this episode Steph speaks with Holly Childs, an interdisciplinary writer and artist whose elaborate creative cosmology filters “stories of computation through frames of ecology, earth, memory, poetry and light.”
Graduating Amsterdam’s Sandberg Instituut in 2019, Holly has worked across a spectrum of fields and forms, publishing two experimental novels in 2014, with a third due for release in 2021. What Causes Flowers Not to Bloom? will be an extension of Holly's Hydrangea performance series and album collaboration with Lithuanian producer Gediminas Žygus, which is partly inspired by her time as part of Benjamin Bratton’s The New Normal postgraduate program at Strelka Institute in Moscow.
