This is a specific type of zoophilia, which is a term for a sexual attraction to animals. The vibrations you feel and that help you talk with spider/webs come from the spider/web biotremology archives of Arachnophilia. Arachnophilia is a fetish wherein individuals are sexually attracted to or aroused by spiders.

You can share and archive the vibrations you receive from your spider/web oracles, and use them to communicate with and consult the nonhuman wisdoms of other spider/web oracles. Arachnophilia has the largest physical and digital archive of spider/webs, and yours will be classified and become part of it, contributing to a collective endeavour of mapping against extinction. By submitting your spider/web oracle image and geo-location to the Arachnophilia community, you become an accredited owner of an artwork in the Spider/Web Pavilions series, courtesy of Tomás Saraceno and Arachnophilia. Your reading emerges from an interpretation of your selected card and the spider/web that encounters you. We invite you to use this channel to explore new threads of connectivity with the spider/webs oracles you encounter, in different environments. The oracle’s response is composed of biotremological recordings, featuring vibrations that travelled through the silken threads of spider/webs from the Arachnophilia Archives, shaping a collective attempt to sense (against) extinction. The atlas-sized book contains five artist-designed, hand-cut, hand-printed pop-up scenes creating a small theater of marvels.

The oracle will reply with your own arachnomancy reading, communicating its message in a language that transcends human dialects. Tomás Saraceno, From Arachnophobia to Arachnophilia, 2022 The Argentine-born and Berlin-based artist, architect, and theorist Tomás Saraceno has designed an artist’s book focused on the environmental and perceptual qualities of spiders and their webs. Take a picture of your chosen spider/web oracle with your phone, and then pose a question to it.

Select one of the cards, and then search for a spider/web oracle in the ecologies that surround you. Each spider/web is considered an oracle: a messenger between perceptual worlds, proposing an encounter that will extend your senses to new, vibratory modes of communication.īy downloading this app, you can receive your own spider/web oracle reading, divined through the Arachnomancy Cards created by artist Tomás Saraceno. Spider/webs are the mouths through which the spider eats and the oracle speaks. The Arachnomancy App is an invitation to attune to our sympoietic futures, celebrating the radical interconnectedness of all things, living and nonliving.
