"To world, we relate. To world, we enact our relations. To world means living up to the practices and responsibilities that operate with or without us, in the dynamic systems of law, art, culture, and language that are always ongoing." - Joseph Pierce

"A “world” is always a world-in-the-making – it is an ongoing activity: worldmaking. And for this reason, “worlding” is perhaps a better way of presenting the concept of a “world” — as it emphasizes that a world is never static or fixed but always actively in-the-making, always a process. While "worlding" does sound odd, it is preferable to "world" precisely because it resists the impression that a world is a noun, a container, a given." - Emergent Futures Lab

Worlding is a particular blending of the material and the semiotic that removes the boundaries between subject and environment, or perhaps between persona and topos. Worlding affords the opportunity for the cessation of habitual temporalities and modes of being. - Helen Palmer and Vicky Hunter

OFFERING

We use the water element to map patterns of power throughout society. This generates awareness of
climate reparations.

We use the air element to explore the potential of complex systems science. This supports novel climate organizing.

We use the fire element to find presence within these existential times. This creates possibilities of climate syncretism.

We use the earth element to take the next best step on paths of safety and solidarity. This embraces ongoing climate migration.
