  • What on Earth..?

    What if responding to the problems created by technology does not always mean finding another technological solution? This event series explores the intersection of nature, AI, and technology more generally through talks at Spore Initiative hosted by Tactical Tech.

    Bringing together thinkers and practitioners from different fields, we ask what we can do in response to dominant narratives, what other kinds of narratives are available to us, and what could change if we adopted them.

    Digital technologies impact the environment, but also shape the way society understands and responds to the climate crisis. Increasingly, actors work with data-driven technologies to set narratives that sometimes spread confusion. We advance knowledge and build the capacity of professionals and decision-makers to understand and respond to this influence in the industry through training, residencies, masterclasses, and toolkits.
