Meet Hydra, a posthuman figure of multiplicity: an environmental identity crisis embodied. Each of its myth-tech eco-hack grows from research into a particular body of water. The Natisone\/Nadison river is strained by sewage mismanagement and overbathing, stirred by contested access and apparently starved by climate change. Can damaged waters be restored by unraveling submerged histories? Or through fragile artistic practices of care? Hydra\u2019s movements negotiate current, threshold, obstruction and retreat. Generating a sonic field from the microscape\u2019s ecological tensions and cultural narratives. An eerie entertainment for accidental bathers-by. An estranging composition of pressures, leakages, interruptions and re-emergences. In Greek myth, Hydra is the killer serpent of Lernaea swamp that survives all decapitation attempts until Heracles seals its wounds with fire and buries its immortal head under a rock. Or has the hero failed perhaps? Welcome to the second site-specific performance of the hydraHacks series unfolding across vulnerable Adriatic waterscapes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
