Technoshamanism merges ancient shamanic practices with modern technologies—silicon-based (dry), biological (wet), and hybrid (moist)—to heal and sustain life. Contemporary artists use this symbiosis to pursue expanded forms of consciousness, combining technoscientific tools with shamanic techniques.

Architecture should be reconceptualized as part of a continuum of artificial and natural agents, according to the authors. Drawing on 4E cognition (embodied, embedded, enactive, and extended), they propose the notion of 'symbiotic architecture' and test it with examples from contemporary buildings. The paper argues that architectural apparatuses function as actors within this continuum, blurring the boundary between the built and the living.
