The project enables comparative analysis of ecologically engaged artistic practices positioned between global environmental discourses and local community struggles. Slovenian researchers collaborate with Cornell University's School of Computing, while the U.S. team builds on existing ties with the University of Nova Gorica from projects like MASTmodule.eu and the Cryptominding exhibition.

The project fosters art-science integration and socially engaged research, promoting inclusive knowledge production.
