A Taste of Tomorrow Night’s Event with Ecoarttech

Tomorrow, Hyperallergic is hosting Leila Nadir and Cary Peppermint of Ecoarttech. The event will explore the convergent ecologies of art, media and the environment in what the duo is calling “nature 2.0.” Their topic is timely and fascinating — not to mention complex and nuaced — so I asked them to explain a little about what they will talk about on Thursday night. The following is a short interview.

This week, Hyperallergic intern Janelle Grace, aka @RudyHuxtable, will begin contributing to the Hyperallergic LABS Tumblelog. She will curate a stream of images inspired by/related to the BP Oil Spill.

On April 20th, BP’s Deepwater Hoirzon oil rig blew up in the Gulf of Mexico and created the largest off-shore oil spill in US history. The tragedy and ecological disaster has since inspired a reawakening of environmental consciousness in America and the World.

This is the first in a series of weeklong explorations by Janelle and others on Hyperallergic LABS that will focus on a topic and explore it visually for seven days. We hope it will complement our regular posts while offering perspectives on a current topic. Feel free to submit your own image, text, quote, video or audio file for consideration or you can photo reply to any post.
