Description

Hidden from view, data centres process and store scientific data while requiring extensive energy and metal extraction. How can science become sustainable, as it depends heavily on these data infrastructures? The authors of this volume trouble cultures of scientific competition, challenge institutional habits, irritate server procurement and regulations, question funding procedures, and confront global supply chains. It is a witty and thought-provoking engagement with practical everyday challenges of enabling a university to respond to the planetary. With original line art and ethnographic texts, they offer a refreshing take on the challenges data-driven science faces in times of climate change.
