Last week, in collaboration with the Decoupling IT project, we had the pleasure of hosting a talk by ⒹⓞⓜⓘⓝⓘⓒⒷⓞⓨⓔⓡ from Rice University entitled "Learning to Live in 3D: Decarbonazation, Decoupling, Degrowth". Slides available here soon: ccit.itu.dk/Engagements


Cool Phd opportunity with great folks The Techno-Anthropology Lab Aalborg Universitet

It's real! 'Rubber Boots Methods for the Anthropocene: Doing Fieldwork in Multispecies Worlds' is out w/ U of MN Press. In 13 wonderful essays the book retools the empirical study of socioecological chaos across the human, social, and natural sciences. W/ Rachel Cypher Nils Bubandt
