I've been thinking about that question a lot lately. Maybe too much: open.substack.com/pub/darkforu...

Thanks to Laura Briscoe at NYBG, Tiger Dingsun for the web design work, the NEH for funding this project and to the Integrated Design and Media Program at NYU for supporting it.

The site itself explores how plants serve as conceptual models for organizing information. One can explore the collection using an arboreal (hierarchical and branching), a rhizomatic (horizonal and linked) or a bryophytic (flat ontology) navigation structure.
comment in response to post
The site is a collection of texts and creative responses contributed by a group of historians, designers, technologists and artists on the themes of subject, sensation and scale, and how a bryophyte collections like the Mitten Collection in the herbaria at NYBG, might be digitally presented.

In our research, we also scraped the details of every carbon offset project from the major voluntary registry and put them in an archive at: offsetarchive.labr.io It also shows all the companies, orgs and individuals who have bought offset products on carbon registries.

They also reduce everything to the single dimension of carbon fluxes & flows and presupposes that these metabolisms can be measured, standardized, and ultimately made fungible. Trees serve as carbon pumps and wetlands as carbon stores. Offsetting renders kin as infrastructure.
comment in response to post
Offsets demand that all actions be commodified by means of measurement & data collection. The need for data, and the time-consuming difficulty of manually monitoring, inevitably incentivizes automated computational solutions—or, in other words, surveillance technology.
