The workshop, Trace Carbon, is an online discussion and workshop, framed around the markets and techniques for carbon measurement and management currently proposed and underway in environmental, ecological, governmental, industrial and technological contexts. Participants of the 2020 Art Meets Radical Openness festival (in 2020 AMRO was 100% online) were given space for discussion, a few short assignments and provided with an extensive collection of published resources through the Trace Carbon Reader.
A collaboration with artist, designer, writer and researcher Caroline Sinders, the workshop features presentations of ongoing related work as part of the Cycles of Circulation project. The activities involves recording, sharing and collecting ‘carbon traces’ — stories and narratives recounted by and with participants.
