Lucía Egaña and Pablo Selín are part of Pluriversidad Nómada. The collective was born from the desire to generate a loving context where different debates and practices can take place around issues that cross us daily. It is a space that takes shelter in the umbrella of “art, science and technology” densifying its use by locating the context and his physical condition.

Based between Berlin and Italy, REINCANTAMENTO is an independent collective of researchers, philosophers, and designers dedicated to exploring the intricate entanglement between technology, magic, and human society. Through our open-source and work-in-progress meditation, we are interested in dismantling hegemonic techno-politics and creating sites of resistance. In our practice, we play with the language of magic, street pop culture, and game design.
