The author discusses the contemporary aspects of culture which allows for self-construction of identity. He also points out that in the areas of arts and sciences we can observe transcending the traditional disciplinary divisions. Scientific discoveries often become similar to artistic experiments. Therefore, new opportunities for creative activities are opening up for researchers with competencies of artists. The author discusses the analysis of the effects of such artistic and scientific activities with the use of the concept of affordances James J. Gibson. New techno-biological possibilities of artistic creation are presented on the example of cultural transmobility that was obtained with the use of Husqvarna enduro motorcycle. The last part of the essay is presenting the novelty of scientific experiments with exploring poetic techno-bio-performances, in which the individual opening to the world (affordance) becomes a way of creating non-textual ways of representing experience.
