phaidra.bibliothek.uni-ak.ac.at o:74284 Contingent Agencies : Inquiring Into the Emergence of Atmospheres How do atmospheres – those subtle, impermanent, non-objectified and surrounding yet intimately affective presences – come to be? What forces enable and constrain their appearance, and how do they relate to one another? How to research these complex processes in a non-reductive way? Contingent Agencies, an artistic research project initiated by Alex Arteaga and Nikolaus Gansterer, explores the dynamic relationship between human and non-human agencies as enabling conditions for the emergence of atmospheres. This cross-disciplinary investigation is conducted through multimodal practices of notation, reflection, showing, and sharing realized in diverse media within different theoretical frameworks such as phenomenology, enactivism, and new materialism. A group of internationally renowned authors explores the emergence of atmospheres through diverse perspectives, including art, artistic research, western and non-western philosophy, anthropology, sociology, and quantum physics. The present book, complemented by an extensive online archive, features multiple research artifacts–including texts, drawings, photo series, diagrams, sound recordings, and video stills – as an invitation for a wider community to join the inquiry. eng artistic research agency atmosphere climate contingeny cross-disciplinarity drawing ecology emergence enactivism environment method notation phenomenon practice reflection resonance transimmanence 2025-10-07T09:09:17.391Z LOMv1.0 Author BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Artega;Alex; FN:Alex Artega END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Barad;Karen; FN:Karen Barad END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Boehler;Arno; FN:Arno Boehler END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Cocker;Emma; FN:Emma Cocker END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Damianisch;Alexander; FN:Alexander Damianisch END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Dirmoser;Gerhard; FN:Gerhard Dirmoser END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Elo;Mika; FN:Mika Elo END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Facility;Debris; FN:Debris Facility END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Gansterer;Nikolaus; FN:Nikolaus Gansterer END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Holzer;Sabina; FN:Sabina Holzer END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Ingold;Tim; FN:Tim Ingold END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Isaac;Rosie; FN:Rosie Isaac END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Kramer;Paula; FN:Paula Kramer END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Manning;Erin; FN:Erin Manning END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Mersch;Dieter; FN:Dieter Mersch END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Rheinberger;Hans-Joerg; FN:Hans-Joerg Rheinberger END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Rouhiainen;Leena; FN:Leena Rouhiainen END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Spiegl;Andreas; FN:Andreas Spiegl END:VCARD LOMv1.0 Editor BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Gansterer;Nikolaus; FN:Nikolaus Gansterer X-ORCID:https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7705-6393 END:VCARD BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Arteaga;Alex; FN:Alex Arteaga END:VCARD https://w3id.org/kim/hcrt/scheme https://w3id.org/kim/hcrt/text Textdokument Text LOMv1.0 yes https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 application/pdf 389738281 https://phaidra.bibliothek.uni-ak.ac.at/o:74284 https://phaidra.bibliothek.uni-ak.ac.at/api/object/o:74284/thumbnail LOMv1.0 discipline https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012 https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/1 NATURAL SCIENCES NATURWISSENSCHAFTEN https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/105 Geosciences Geowissenschaften https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/1052 Meteorology, Climatology Meteorologie, Klimatologie https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/105205 Climate change Klimawandel https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012 https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6 HUMANITIES GEISTESWISSENSCHAFTEN https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/604 Arts Kunstwissenschaften https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012 https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6 HUMANITIES GEISTESWISSENSCHAFTEN https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/604 Arts Kunstwissenschaften https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6040 Arts Kunstwissenschaften https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/604020 Art theory Kunsttheorie https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012 https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6 HUMANITIES GEISTESWISSENSCHAFTEN https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/603 Philosophy, Ethics, Religion Philosophie, Ethik, Religion https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6031 Philosophy, Ethics Philosophie, Ethik https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/603112 Phenomenology Phänomenologie https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012 https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/1 NATURAL SCIENCES NATURWISSENSCHAFTEN https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/103 Physics, Astronomy Physik, Astronomie https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/1030 Physics, Astronomy Physik, Astronomie https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/103024 Quantum field theory Quantenfeldtheorie https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012 https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/5 SOCIAL SCIENCES SOZIALWISSENSCHAFTEN https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/504 Sociology Soziologie https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012 https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6 HUMANITIES GEISTESWISSENSCHAFTEN https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/603 Philosophy, Ethics, Religion Philosophie, Ethik, Religion https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6031 Philosophy, Ethics Philosophie, Ethik https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/603114 Philosophy of mind Philosophie des Geistes https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012 https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6 HUMANITIES GEISTESWISSENSCHAFTEN https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/605 Other Humanities Andere Geisteswissenschaften https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/6050 Other Humanities Andere Geisteswissenschaften https://w3id.org/oerbase/vocabs/oefos2012/605001 History of humanities Geschichte der Geisteswissenschaften
