Join us June 24, 25, and 26 as the Critical Media Lab (CML) presents a trio of community-building events to mark the lightest days of the year. Help inaugurate the CML’s new location in ECH 1205, and learn about its pivot toward “ecomedia”: critical issues
in technology and the environment.</div>

This talk will survey two trajectories for computing in North America. The first, grounded in an energy history of major players in the tech sector, explores how energy efficiency has been both a driving economic force of our digital present and an insufficient
means to mitigate its rapidly growing environmental impacts. The second, drawn from artists and hackers experimenting in degrowth computing, 'small tech,' and solar-powered networks, explores how energy constraints are producing an alternative and dissonant
path. Thinking these trajectories together, the talk will outline a politics and practice of digital energetics.</div>
