Category - Art Product Description - A fictional manual to help disrupt todays all-too-real energy and climate emergenciesThe Energy Emergency Repair Kit E.E.R.K. is a collaboratively-authored research-creation intervention that explores myriad ecological, cultural, and political resonances of the three concepts named in its title: energy, emergency, and repair. The E.E.R.K combines image, text, and sound to riff on the idea of a repair manualthat staple genre of self-help and self-makingwhile exploring energy emergency and energy emergence in several entangled registers. Created collectively by artists, designers, and scholars working and living at various places on Turtle Island, the E.E.R.K. offers a host of situated activities and speculative probes designed to respond to today and tomorrows energy emergencies. The kit intermingles diagrammatic designs with instructional convolutions and perplexing protocols that supply non-programmatic yet highly pragmatic means for navigating, communicating, operating, and undoing the investments that have come to overdetermine energetic relations in the past, present, and future. Triggered most immediately by the pandemic moment circa 2020, with its strangely intermittent and inscrutable convolutions of fossil-fueled business-as-usual, the E.E.R.K. reflects and reckons the long-roiling and fully chronic energy emergency orchestrated over several centuries by racial-fossil capitalisms mass production of injustices. The E.E.R.K. positions energy as more than just a resource to be exploited and managed, more than an infrastructural obstacle to overcome, more than fuel for the nightmares that lie ahead or that are, in too many cases, already here. As a generative, multitudinous fabulation, the E.E.R.K. probes energetic networksthe bonds of endeavor the glow of affection the pulse of attunement the drive of subtraction the charge of uncertainty the resilience of exhaustion the obstinacy of making do the shadow of fossils the pull of futurity the zeroes and ones the force of an otherwisethat, together, seem to compose the circuits of energy emergency now.
