How might interspecies DAOs rewire our societal firmware through new visions of planetary social life.

This project is an exercise in collective imagination about a future where economic value is aligned to the ecological health of our planet, and what the systems might look like to make that future real. The first essay, Undualing, explores foundational assumptions on the nature of prosperity which perpetuate our era of mass extinction. Unlearning these assumptions introduces poignant technical and ethical questions to be explored in the subsequent essays, Commons Sense and Market in the Temple. Our goal is to reformulate a shared understanding of social and economic well-being which is no longer reliant on the division between a human society that is here, close at hand and a wild nature that is out there, and far away. In framing these challenges, I hope to contribute to a common vocabulary in technology, ethics, and ecology which in turn, supports a diversity of approaches to meaningfully engage regenerative economics.

Feral computing asks how technology can be a vector towards animism; of learning how to locate ourselves within a big world, and in the process getting more entangled in it.
