Live from the Threshold #2 - an Art-Science Conversation with Kathy High
<p>Welcome to Live from the Threshold: an Art–Science Conversation, a podcast series emerging from a collaboration between Artists with Evidence and the Heinrich Böll Foundation.</p><p>In this second episode of the series, Artists with Evidence Program Director Ines Montalvao visits Kathy High at The Sanctuary for Independent Media in Troy (NY) on the eastern bank of the historic Hudson River. Recorded in the Sanctuary’s radio room, this conversation unfolds as an intimate exchange shaped by place, practice, and a long-standing commitment to art-science collaborations.</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.kathyhigh.com/">Kathy High</a> is an interdisciplinary artist working in the space where art, biology, and technology touch—often uncomfortably, often generatively. Her practice is a sustained dialogue with living systems: the tender and uneasy ecologies between species, the felt registers of empathy and animal sentience, and the ethical and socio-political entanglements of biotechnology and surrounding industries. She collaborates as readily with scientists as with artists, approaching the laboratory as a site of inquiry and encounter.</p><p>Kathy High is Professor of Arts at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where she maintains a laboratory within the Center for Biotech and Interdisciplinary Studies. There, at the intersection of art and the life sciences, she cultivates practices that open new kinds of relation—between species, between disciplines, and between the stories we tell about what life is and what it might yet become.</p><p>She is a co-director for the urban environmental center,<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.mediasanctuary.org/initiatives/naturelab/"> NATURE Lab</a>, that Ines also had the pleasure to visit in Troy, part of the community media organization Kathy also co-founded, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.mediasanctuary.org/">The Sanctuary for Independent Media</a>. She has received awards including the Guggenheim Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation, and National Endowment for Arts.</p><p>Interdisciplinary artist, educator and also co-director of NATURE Lab,<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://ellieirons.com/"> Ellie Irons</a>, also joins briefly in this episode, adding another layer to the conversation on ecological attention and community-based practice.</p><p>Positioned once again at the threshold—between disciplines, forms of knowledge, and ways of being—this episode deepens the series’ exploration of care, community, and more-than-human thinking.</p><p><strong>Welcome to the threshold. Enjoy.</strong></p><p></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://linktr.ee/artistswithevidence">Follow Artists with Evidence</a> (AwE) and reach out if you want to get involved!</p><p>This podcast was produced by Ben Larsen. The music for Live from the Threshold is Song for Barbara, composed and performed by N. Scott Johnson in honor of his friend, the artist Barbara Hammer.</p>

Live from the Threshold - an Art-Science Conversation #1
<p>Welcome to<strong> Live from the Threshold: an Art–Science Conversation</strong>, a new podcast series emerging from a collaboration between Artists with Evidence and the Heinrich Böll Foundation.</p><p>On October 23rd, 2025, a group of art–science practitioners gathered underground in The Gym at Judson in New York City, where the space itself seemed to vibrate with the city above it. In that resonant room, we created a live public dialogue at the intersections of art, science, and society. </p><p><strong>Live from the Threshold</strong> invites the audience into a space of embodied encounters, where sensing becomes a method of inquiry. This podcast opens up an art-science dialogue that traverses the porous boundaries between human and non-human, body and environment, known and unknown. </p><p>In this first episode of the series, curated and moderated by Ines Montalvao (Artists with Evidence), we move from underground ecosystems to interspecies listening, and from soundscapes to embodied storytelling, as the conversation traces how artists work across thresholds—geological, sensory, and social—to reimagine care, belonging, and coexistence.</p><p>Ines was joined by three remarkable voices in art–science: <strong>Cara Hagan</strong>, whose movement-based practice treats the body as a vessel of ecological and cultural memory; <strong>Linda O’Keeffe</strong>, who listens across species and technologies, revealing the politics and poetics of care; and <strong>Nikki Lindt</strong>, who descends into the subterranean world to map the shifting ecosystems beneath our feet.</p><p>Positioned at the threshold—between disciplines, forms of knowledge, and ways of being—this conversation underscores the urgency of transgressing the known. In a time of ecological upheaval and technological acceleration, it asks how we might cultivate practices rooted in attention, slowness, and relationality—how we might learn to sense differently.</p><p><strong>Welcome to the threshold. Enjoy.</strong></p><p></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://linktr.ee/artistswithevidence">Follow Artists with Evidence</a> (AwE) and reach out if you want to get involved!</p><p>This podcast was produced by Ben Larsen.
