We strive to achieve significant milestones towards planetarity as a frame of action, influencing public policy, creating a governance framework for complex ecosystems, and building a planetary civics alliance for a new knowledge economy and more regenerative futures www.planetarycivics.net/launch

Designing an identity for an emergent initiative like Planetary Civics (www.planetarycivics.net) requires not giving answers but a visual language that enables questions. I designed a variable font at Dark Matter Labs, which is in constant flux between disorder and order, question and answer.

Announcing the Launch of the Planetary Civics Inquiry! We are thrilled to introduce the Planetary Civics Inquiry(PCI) an alliance of researchers, educators, policymakers, designers, and practitioners committed to transforming the structures and processes that shape how we govern our entangled planet

This is our first bilingual post. You can find the English version below. The referenced videos are also subtitled so they can be followed in both of these languages.

Dark Matter Labs was built through a series of blogs and evolutions of thoughts and frameworks. Words, in our context, are often a means to think, not just to communicate. Words are constructions of logic, tools to assemble thoughts and perceive the world. As such, we take them very seriously.
