Future publics: Carbon

The Future Publics: Carbon booklet is the first in a series of open publications featuring a curated selection of images and text from cross-disciplinary members of CCR-Net and our wider communities of practice. Future Publics is an emerging initiative which seeks to generate critical and creative discussion about the climate crisis across diverse sites of public encounter and exchange. This booklet focuses on ‘Carbon’ as a constitutive element within current material, sociocultural, economic, aesthetic, and political transformations of planetary life. We invited contributions from researchers and creative practitioners who are thinking and working with carbon in a variety of speculative, experimental, critical, and socially transformative ways.
