There’s a climate crisis, what does it rhyme with?
Mini Game, 2024Tools: p5, Python
This interactive piece explores the theme of climate disaster through generated news headlines. By encouraging viewers to explore rhyming words within news headlines before they disappear off the page, the installation introduces a playful twist that shifts focus away from the urgency of the crisis. This highlights society’s willful ignorance and inaction in the face of climate catastrophe.
Headlines scraped from Guardian’s Climate Crisis web page using custom Python script, fed into p5.js front end. See here for the code.
