Two planetary hemispheres bound together and facing away from each other. One runs on order, the other on overflow. Neither needs the other to survive, which is the problem.

Touch the planet and you get the voices of the people living on it — testimony, not narration. Shown at Ars Electronica Campus, Linz, 2025, where it received an Honorary Mention.

Building societies, even speculative ones, is never solitary work.
