In the new hybrid spatial ontology, symbolic-cultural production processes questions the validity of the theoretical framework of locative art, initially addressed by situationist psychogeography and the informational context associated with GPS metadata. Post-locative art goes beyond the previous framework by critically accepting the important role that non-humans play in public representation as well as in delegating the production of meaning to AI. Post-locative art implements critical strategies challenging the human subjectivity overwhelmed, decentred and weakened under the informative pressure managed by non-human automatisms that make up the onlife environment.

Author Biography

Santiago Morilla, Complutense University of Madrid

Madrid, 1973. Multidisciplinary artist, PhD in Contemporary Art (UCM, Madrid) and specialized in New Media Art (Media Lab, UIAH, Finland), researcher and lecturer at the UCM Faculty of Fine Arts. He is currently part of the research groups Prácticas artísticas y nuevas formas de conocimiento (id UCM: 588), Fossil Aesthetics: A Political Ecology of Art History, Visual Culture and Cultural Imaginaries of Modernity (CSIC / PIE 202010E005) and Urban Art and Technosphere (UCM and University of Rennes 2, France).

He conducts his art-based research in the field of ecoventions, situated technologies, post-locative art, counter-cartographic artistic practices and the synergies between art + nature + technology. His situated approach pursues the critical production of a common space of coexistence, where it would be possible to establish alternative and imaginative dynamics of collaboration with otherness through listening, respecting and balancing diverse agents and systems (facing the costly ecosystem collapses of the Anthropocene/Capitalocene).
