Abstract

Planetary ecological crisis and its anthropogenic causes made geology emerge in distinct knowledge fields since the acknowledgement of the geological Anthropecene era. In the field of media studies, this emergence is based on media ecology and archaeology thinkers such as Siegfried Zielinski, Matthew Fuller and Jussi Parikka. This paper, accordingly, will address this context of references and subjects highlighting how art is recognized as a pillar for its epistemological
potential, to deal conceptually with media affordances in their ecological relations.
