“The Earth spins before an uncontrolled radiant heater, the sun, whose output is by no means constant”
James Lovelock

From the planetary to the translocal, we find ourselves in a constant flow of transmutation, which puts us in an unpredictable position inside a speculative zeitgeist. Speculation, as Suhail Malik says, as “the task of finding more-than-human forms of knowledge by establishing the conditions within conceptual thought of knowledge of what is beyond human experience”.

Provided a small flow of electricity and time, matter (saltpetre, copper and water) is out of control here, escaping prediction. Unpredictable Atlas suggests a new, uncontrollable territory by providing segments of it inside a classic Berliner “Altbau”, which was built in the same time as when the rush of the Chilean saltpeter extraction occured.
