[Annotation: Paz Tornero] As the planet becomes telematically unified, the self becomes dispersed. The convergence of dry silicon pixels and biologically wet particles is creating a moistmedia substrate for art where digital systems, telematics, genetic engineering and nanotechnology meet. A technoetic aesthetic not only will embrace new media, technology, consciousness research and nonclassical science but also will gain new insights from older cultural traditions previously banished from materialist discourse. In the present post 9/11 crisis, collaborative transdisciplinary research is needed if a truly planetary culture is to emerge that is technoethical as well as techno etic. In this paper artist and researcher Roy Ascott defends the need of working on collaborative environments in order to find a new technoetic that matches with the new postcontemporary social’s need. I would like to add also the need of researching new aesthetics theories that could help to understand the artscience practices instead of trying to theorized transdisciplinary collaboration under traditional and classic authors of aesthetic in contemporary art.
