Sea level rise and costal flooding impacts 2030

In their current work, Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts 2030,
the A.I. Collective examines with the consequences of climate change and the associated rise in sea levels and their effects on urban habitats.
Beyond a global temperature increase of two degrees above preindustrial levels, numerous coastal megacities and metropolitan areas are projected to become uninhabitable, turning millions of people into environmental migrants. Imagining a life and survival in the Anthropocene, the AI Collective asks how affected coastal regions and metropolises will adapt to the new natural conditions and how a new coexistence between humans, nature and technology might look like. The A.I. Collective refers to scientific findings from diverse areas of research, bringing together urban planning architecture, biotechnology and engineering. as well as indigenous traditions. The multimedia work uses virtual and augmented reality technologies and installative video elements.
