Eidozoology

Now, on Issuu.com you can easily flip through "Eidozoology" a publication about this new, fascinating branch of parabiology. But what exactly is Eidozoology?

Here is an hilight from the booklet's introduction:

THE EIDOZOOTIC RESEARCH

THE EIDOZOAN 

The eidozoan (from eidos- “image” and -zoo “living being”) or A.B.I. (Autonomous Biological Image) is a living image created, grown and inoculated into different imaginary hosts and habitats.

EIDOZOOLOGY: THE SCIENCE OF LIVING IMAGES 

Images are living beings. 

Images are born, grow and live in their habitat (the imaginary) in a way that resembles biological processes. Images are born, grow, evolve, feed themselves, suffer, mate, mutate, extinct, migrate, fight, struggle, proliferate, die.  

To investigate how an image can live, interact with different imaginaries and other images, i have started creating sorts of “guinea-pig images”: something that recaed nothing pre- cisely, yet living, able to evolve and to inhabit any imaginary: i caed it “eidozoan” (living image).

My art is essentially an uninterrupted experiment about eidozoans’ behaviour and its relationships with a strange but welcoming habitat: our world.
