Uncivilize explores what it means to be alive right now, in these times of transition
A couple of side notes
-
A European lens
It is important to acknowledge that our research, insights, and writing have a Euro-centric perspective. So even though we aim to not only have a local but also a more global view on our current times, our lens is European (and Global North-ean) for sure.
-
A self-ethnography
This project started out of our own needs, questions, and explorations and is ongoing as we speak. We study ourselves, our own struggles, and process as much as the social groups we are part of, and the larger cultural context.
-
An inquisitive tone
We intend to ask questions and explore. We are in no way claiming to have all the answers (and would likely distrust anyone who did) but we are curious and willing to look deeply and from multiple angles at the characteristics of the moment in time we live in.

A little help from Ai
We create the visuals on this website using AI. A topic surrounded by ambivalence, to say the least. For now, we explore this option as well as our perspective on it. Also because we believe a key question of our time is how to use technology in support of a regenerative future.
