The Big Question
Why is it that so many people knowabout multiple environmental crises
but so few people are doing anything about them -
let alone responding to the science?

Fixing the Communications Failure*
• Community• Equality• Egalitarian and communitarian values• Suspicious of commerce and
industry• Believe environmental risks
should be restricted• Trust bearded male in a denim
shirt
• Individualism• Authority• Hierarchical values• Prize personal initiative• Admire commerce and
industry• Dismiss evidence of
environmental risks• Trust grey-haired male in
a suit

Two Information Processing Systems of the Brain*
Analytic• Logical• Deliberative• Analytic• Perceives reality in abstract
symbols, words, numbers• Rules and algorithms need to be
learned; does not happen automatically
Examples• Numerical statistics in tables,
figures, graphs, charts
Experiential• Holistic• Intuitive• Emotion-driven (fear, dread,
anxiety)• Perceives reality in concrete
images and narratives, linked in associations
• Operates automatically and without any training
Examples• Images or stories• Emotionally charged and vivid

How to “Do” Arts/Science Collaborative Projects?
• Find the arts people and have coffee(bring questions to explore)
• Find out where your goals, needs, challenges and resources might over overlap or help each other
• Suggest a collaborationas individual scientists and artistsas academic departments
• Invent programming principles
• Think ecosystemically
