The New Alphabet/DNA #24: Evidence Ensembles

"Our planet is experiencing the first stage of the Anthropocen: a higly disruptive transitional period of "global weirding" within which established ecological, climatic, geochemical and biological patterns are changing radically, and in some cases even are threatened with collapse. There is no lack of evidence for this: material evidence of this critical planetary transformation has long been omnipresent. However, it is also evident that humans are capable of learning and compensating for mistakes, that they are open to new cosmologies and old practices that allow for interdependence and generate care. Evidence Ensembles is an experimental collage of perspectives on the material witnesses of planetary change, their reconstruction and their calling in us. [publisher's note]
