How to imagine a distributed octopus sentience? A distributed tactile-olfactory[chemoreceptive]-visual-kinesthetic gestalt? Maggie Roberts' visualisations merge ISCRI's research on octopus perception and AI with 0rphan Drift's two-decades reimagining aesthetics of machine vision.

Fact: Maori Octopus could take the best selfies because their front two arms are 4-6 times the length of their body! (a total arm span of close to 10ft!) 📸 : Matt Testoni Photography Check out that photobombing fish 🐟 lol #underwaterphotography #Wildlife #Octopus #SciComm

Understanding the Octopus: From Fear to Fascination #HONR201animal Throughout our history we have looked to substantiate our fears of the unknown in an animal we barely understood and as a result the journey of understanding the octopus has been far from straightforward.
We had great chat on our very first #video #podcast for #ztopia with @julientauvel hosted by @Futures_Design ! The archive of the podcast is available on z-topia.show ! @Futures_Design has exciting open calls for talk/event opportunities, check @Futures_Design for info
This is what got us into Burton Nitta...check it out if you can, octomaniacs!
Algaculture symbiosis suit version.4 is currently exhibited as part of an amazing show “Potential Worlds 2: Eco-Fictions” @migros_museum ! We are honoured to be showing alongside with great works! Huge thanks to @migros_museum team! #traveldiaryofart she is in #switzerland
That was such a fantastic collaboration! Working with @burtonnitta was absolutely amazing. @lehorsfall @phil_longhurst @nickrphotograph will remember it well.
It's #WorldSoilDay. EPSRC-funded researchers found a way to clean toxic metals from the soil using plants - and then extract them as valuable nanoparticles. Their work led to an artistic collaboration with @burtonnitta and performance at @V_and_A orlo.uk/tFa6G
Cephalopods keep turning "common knowledge" upside down... Open-access paper just published, describing the recent in-situ observations of the "ram's horn squid" (Spirula spirula), by DJ Lindsay et al. mdpi.com/904774
Exciting news! This appears to be the FIRST observation of Spirula, aka ram's horn squid, alive + in its natural environment. Very rarely seen or captured, they have many extinct relatives, but are only living member of genus Spirula, family Spirulidae, and order Spirulida. 1/3
