Decompose is an artistic practice, institute and platform working through the interface of technology, ecology and materiality. As an artistic practice, Decompose explores the potential for collaboration between organic matter, transient processes, and living beings. As an institute, Decompose digests, dissects, and re-engineers systems of knowledge production, seeking alternative approaches to learning by poaching the academic model. As a platform, Decompose advocates a riotous and weedy community of biologically-inspired and informed creative practices. Decompose is co-founded by design researcher Remina Greenfield and artist Shuyi Cao, a multidisciplinary art and design collective based in New York City. They teach at Parsons School of Design.
