Welcome to world within worlds a wild underground lab co-constituting science otherwise, instruments for vegetal-mineral-animal slippages, queering of sensing, and resistances to monoculture damage. Enter different scales and affective scenes of viral contagions, micro plastic becomings and their continuous co-shapings between fossil fuel toxicity, watery scenes and vunerable bodies. Practice coalition building through arrangements, coded bouquet messages, attachments to floral exchange, sideways approaches to considering how to build solidarities, kinships through practices. Practice computation and modelling as a strategy to make visible the tensions and frictions present between the cosmologies of industrial agroecology and the knowledge practices of plants and the vegetal politics that emerge with this. Generate transfeminist desires, and fictions, for a tools which generate very different knowings of the world when in presence of deep geological time, power and violence. Listen up! Facts plus fictions might also be a way to intervene into how the world is being made known.
