In this podcast, Samaneh Moafi
<https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-335-samaneh-moafi> turns our gaze to
notions of ecocide, negative commons and environmental violence in pursuit
of accountability and change. In doing so, she takes us through the Negev
desert, extraterritorial toxic clouds, orangutan nests in Indonesia, forest
fires and weaponised wind gusts in the Gaza strip.

Samaneh Moafi <https://rwm.macba.cat/en/sonia/sonia-335-samaneh-moafi> is
an architect and the senior researcher at Forensic Architecture,
Goldsmiths, University of London. She oversees the Centre For Contemporary
Nature, a division within Forensic Architecture which explores the
relationship between human rights violations, environmental violence, and
anthropogenic climate change. The Centre’s activist research into
environmental damage challenges the historical perception of nature as a
static, eternal backdrop against which human activity unfolds and calls for
a new understanding of nature — contemporary nature —  which is now
entangled with human agency in a feedback loop with consequences far beyond
our control.
