Abstract:
A forum to explore new cross-disciplinary thinking on sustainability in urban environments, with a focus on the interface between our digital footprint and our environmental footprint, non-Western perspectives, and on creative intervention to enable social change. What changes in social and material practice are required in order to enhance environmental sustainability, and what might be the local, national and global impact? The forum will consist of a series of quick fire presentations by artists, scientists, activists and commentators; and an open discussion. Luminous Green’s panel will follow afterwards. Part of the Environment 2.0 project, organised by Drew Hemment, ImaginationLancaster and Futuresonic. Supported by The British Council, Arts Council England, ImaginationLancaster and Futuresonic. This event is part of SHINE, a youth festival supported by the National Youth Council and the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports.
