🌿 Indexed Beings: Film screening and artist talk at St Andrews Botanic Garden🌿 Saturday 29 November from 6pm to 8.30pm Tickets are priced on a sliding scale. 🌱What happens when plants are no longer treated as specimens, but as sentient beings capable of knowing, acting, and creating their own worlds? Join us at St Andrews Botanic Garden for a screening of Indexed Beings, followed by an artist talk with Helen Knowles and Soraida Chindoy. The second in a trilogy of artist films by Helen Knowles, developed through her practice-based PhD at Northumbria University. Filmed in Mocoa, Putumayo, Colombia, the work was made in partnership with members of the indigenous Kamëntsá, Inga, Cofan and Siona communities and the Herbario Etnobotánico del Piedemonte. 🎥The 42-minute film centres on the re-enactment of a dispute that took place in the Herbarium of Piedemonte, Mocoa, in the Colombian Amazon, between a scientist and a local taita (shaman) over the role of the herbarium. Through performance, collaboration and dialogue, Indexed Beings explores plant sentience and asks how knowledge shifts when we recognise more-than-human intelligence, asking whose knowledge really counts? The screening will be followed by a conversation with artist, Helen Knowles and collaborator and participant in the film Soraida Chindoy Buesaquillo, an indigenous guardian, mother and activist who is working to defend the sacred Putumayo mountains. 🎟Tickets can be purchased through Eventbrite.

Looking for a way to connect with the other subjects in your School? Join the Departments of Film Studies, Social Anthropology, and Philosophy, in a FREE screening of Danny Boyle’s ‘Shallow Grave’ (1994) from 6-8pm, Tuesday 14th October in School III! Boyle’s noir debut follows three flatmates in Edinburgh trying to find a fourth person to share the rent (sound familiar?); their rampantly obnoxious behaviour leads to some scathing, albeit satisfying karma… We look forward to seeing you all there! Organised by the School presidents of Philosophy, Social Anthropology and Film Studies.
