Lo-res, i.e. low resolution, blurs outlines of objects and at the same time brings to mind their materiality. A low-resolution image is a result of circulation, becomes an affect transformed into a body to become an image (again).

Lo-res bodies are sticky digital waste of lowest standing, losing their origin. They are symptoms of movement and mutation of contemporary bodies, i.e. bio-objects. Bio-object is an academic term used to describe new forms of life created through processes of bio-mediation which blur the lines between the living and the artificial, the human and the non-human. The concept of a bio-object takes us from the post-war alienation to aliens of the 21st century. High-tech, low-life, no future. Beatriz Preciado refers to this sate of being an alien as techno-sexuality. Radiance, lo-res is a choreography which takes place within mutation and contamination, circulation of affects and their embodiment; it attempts to become witness to techno-subjectivity.
