In the time of the climate crisis, what if tech scaled down, instead of up? Potato Internet reimagines the internet during our climate emergency by using potatoes and mesh networks made of recycled waste like e-ink displays to create a slow, small scale social network.

This project was supported by M-cult with the European Media Art Platform EMAP in 2022.
