For instance, a graphic designer can be commissioned to program an interactive website to explain the energy impact of digital media. If the website is programmed in a way that requires resource-intensive computing in data centres and drains the batteries of the visitor's phone or laptop, then instead of being an exemplary and innovative contribution, it risks to remain symbolic, or in a performative contradiction to its stated goal. At worst, it may even be an alibi for environmentally harmful practices and technologies. This is a problem because it seriously weakens and undermines the interdependent relation between the cultural sector, art and design education, and policymaking. It is also a missed opportunity to showcase forward-looking practices that could be both creative and more sustainable.
-Permacomputing could promote a transition from a system where creative practitioners use the latest digital tools and media, regardless of environmental consequences, to a more circular system in which digital tools and media of all generations, are carefully combined, crafted and used to form a strategically less extractive practice.
