This weekend we had a collective work session for 'Another Infrastructure (AI)', an art project about the environmental and social impact of data centres in south Dublin.
Seven artists will build a community-run server and host artist led workshops and events over the next few months, opening conversations about topics including heat, disinformation, tokens, game systems, counter-maps and thneeds.
Including @dasha @yambunz and @aswemaysink

in reply to Justin Pickard • • •👋 hi! I'll be presenting the start of a new project called Luddite Academy tomorrow in Cork ucc.ie/en/dah/news/3rd-symposi… It also involves artist-led infrastructure (a server that I admin) and the pushback against datacenters. Slides and other materials will be ready very soon!

I'm also part of a group of 20-odd artists that meets monthly online to chat about these things, if you'd have any interest (founded with @colm a couple of years back)
