infinity kiss conjures a complex, wild, and unexpected series of encounters. We dance the dance of the symbiotic ones, the self-devouring ones, and the ancient clonally multiplying ones. Within a dense sonic and visual landscape, bodily networks converge—aroused and excited—playing between individuality and the materiality of our interconnectedness. We spawn and respawn, exhausted by the drive to replicate and yet bristling at the touch of another. We propose new stories of horizontal genetic exchange and long-lasting intimacy between strangers. Follow us into an inter-species celebration, a queer cruise: a primordial, biological ooze which inevitably merges with everything it touches.

Symbiotic interaction is the stuff of life on a crowded planet. Our symbiogenetic composite core is far older than the recent innovation we call the individual human. Our strong sense of difference from any other life-form, our sense of species superiority, is a delusion of grandeur.
–– Lynn Margulis
