Ethnographic field research that explores the Changpa nomads' cosmological orientation, practices of celestial navigation and traces lines of dwelling as a relational con-subjectivity that attends to presence, and seeks to understand the arts of becoming aware of presences, and bringing their presence into consciousness. Their language and life ways hold the veil open to afford world that is saturated with possibilities disruptive of mere presence, attunements to the more than human world and moments of holographic condensation composed at once of multiple temporalities. This research aims to situate an artistic inquiry at the very limits of ‘thinkable thought’ to ask what/who is obscured when the unknown becomes known. By asking what does in situ practices of space exploration tell us about the nature of scientific practice and its relationship to ethics? Indeed are voices/cultures are rendered invisible in the objective pursuit of the unknowable and how do we respectfully and creatively engage with communities and other ontologies so that the world itself does not get lost in doctrines of representation and scientific objectivity as Donna Haraway so astutely reminds us.
