It is our pleasure to announce our upcoming multidisciplinary art/sci symposium taking place on Thursday, 12 December 2024 at IIASA. The event will explore new ways of unleashing the debate around Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and will include the opening of a related art exhibition.

This event is part of The Carbon Busters project by the art association Flechtwerk in dialogue with scientists and the industry, including researchers from IIASA, which explores CCS through artistic research. The project is funded by the Federal Government of Lower Austria (K1 and K3) and the Weitblick GmbH.
