Are you a UK-based artist? Do you have a climate-related project idea? Do you want to get paid to develop it? Do you want me to have your back on the tech side?

The Beeswarm plot turned out to be more or less what I needed. One axis constrained, one with collision.

This is a level of #dataviz failure I may be willing to live with.

To me FALC should be more like the Anarresti society in Le Guin's The Dispossessed, but I guess I glossed over the 'luxury' part.

📄 Review of Aaron Bastani's ‘Fully Automated Luxury Communism: A Manifesto’ forthcoming on Verso Books.

Climate, communism and the Age of Affluence?
https://theecologist.org/2019/may/29/climate-communism-and-age-affluence
