For many non-scientists, the images and language of climate change and accompanying ecological events present as enigmatic signs. They elicit profound anxieties even as they conjure new ways of seeing the world. Environmental events are thus pushing up to the surface what are fundamentally literary problematics of writing and reading.

The Seed Books Labs project addresses the impact of today’s new climate imaginaries. In fluid, permeable books funded by Sweden’s The Seed Box Collaboratory and the Australian Research Council, we are exploring how today’s new visual and cognitive landscapes are engendering new textual practices in Humanities disciplines.

SeedBooks editors: Sigi Jöttkandt and Prudence Gibson.
