A wildfire story that isn't making the news: Widespread fires on peatlands in Kalimantan, Indonesia. Two months ago we were deploying an air quality sensor network in the region. Hard to imagine what it must be like to live through this. Indoor AQI >500 at times.

What kind of stories are told? How to engage in world-making across species? Some questions to be raised in this upcoming event. I will be talking about moorlands and a persecuted bird of prey, moving through individual artwork and collaboration towards collective re-imagination.
