Chapters are based on concepts from scientific literature that deals with specific aspects of planetary changes.

The general approach for content is described as follow

Scientific data
For each chapter, we collaborate with scientists to select a body of works from the most relevant academic literature. We extract existing imagery - such as maps and visualisations - and archive them on the present website under interactive formats. We explicit the data sources and how they have been produced.

Original Artworks
Based on this scientific corpus, we invite artists to propose interpretations under different forms (visualisations, sound, performance, installations, etc). All artworks are documented and released under public domain on this website for people to download and appopriate.

Better than databases (#33), we should have a list of open topics that could become chapters.

Here are some example of possible chapters :

  • technosphere
  • digital metabolism
  • global urbanization
  • urban thermodynamics
  • virtual water
  • great acceleration
  • elementary computing
  • planetary boundaries
  • etc
