Anya: It is common that radical imaginaries (new ideas/aesthetics) either die or move to central imaginaries (normalised ideas) (look at Ernst and Schröter Media Futures and their interpretation of Cornelius Castoriadis' theory of imagination). What are ways of keeping new radical imaginaries radical? And why would we want to? What does stability radical but also consistent imaginary bring us (socially? politically?) if it is not normalised?

I made a work around medical imaging and homogenous bodies - creating intentionally limited datasets/mixed of real/unreal images https://katietindle.co.uk/portfolio/they-were-expected-to-see-what-stuff-she-was-made-of/ (Apols for being self referential, its also a few years old)
I wondered if the exhibition, Cryptid by Joey Holder, was a useful or relevant reference. Some more info here. Holder was interested in possible creatures, exploring "explore queer ecology and the limitations of Western scientific taxonomy." The exhibition focuses on plankton as "one of the most understudied and diverse groups of creatures on the planet" and which is vital to all life on earth. --Mateus (talk) 17:37, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
