Over 100 contributors mark seven years of Serpentine Ecologies’ research into non-human consciousness with The Shape of a Circle in the Mind of a Fish—a landmark publication exploring the minds of animals, plants, fungi, and machines.

The Shape of a Circle in the Mind of a Fish is a major publication gathering work from over 100 contributors in the arts, humanities, and sciences. This collection, edited by Lucia Pietroiusti and Filipa Ramos, explores animal, plant, fungal, and machine consciousness; interspecies communication; and more-than-human perspectives. Marking a significant milestone in Serpentine’s long-term research project of the same name—initiated in 2018—the publication brings together years of inquiry into non-human ways of knowing and being. The publication includes original conversations, essays, interviews, meditations, poems and artworks from a wide range of leading thinkers across disciplines, including Peter Gabriel, Anna L. Tsing, Tim Ingold, Elizabeth A. Povinelli, Maria Puig de la Bellacasa, Merlin Sheldrake, Superflex, Jenna Sutela, Karrabing Film Collective, Sophia Al-Maria, Ted Chiang and many others.

The publication is arranged into five thematic chapters—Worlds, Beings, Grounds, Odes, and Oracles—tracing planetary consciousness through methods, beings, politics, storytelling, and technology.
