Initiatives

Research teams that reimagine how art works with technology, ecology and community.

Initiatives address urgent questions, develop new ideas and initiate change. Through these projects, we collaborate and experiment with artists, technology, other species, and communities. We aim to change existing structures, produce knowledge, build communities of care, and imagine new ways of being.
