The latest in a series of more-than-human citizens' assemblies facilitated by artist collective JUST DUST in which role-playing is used to address real-life situations in order to encourage people to empathize with radically different perspectives – workers, bodies of water, spirits, politicians, wild animals, plants, minerals, etc.

The topic of this assembly is the enormous AI data centre that is being built in Lübbenau, Brandenburg. It appears that no environmental assessment has been carried out and the sheer number of governmental bodies involved and the fragmentation of responsibility make the project largely incomprehensible. Does zero transparency make resisting the project impossible?

Participants will begin the afternoon by getting into character and making masks that they can wear to represent the various stakeholders in the assembly. 

The assembly will take approximately two hours (with up to 3 hours time dedicated to mask-making beforehand). 

JUST DUST is Marie-Pierre Leroux, Thanh Tam Huynh and Perry Walker.
