Juria Toramae and I were recently interviewed and quoted by ChannelNewsAsia reporter Davina Tham on our speculative piece “Semakau Landfill Beyond 2035” which is featured in Cosmogrammatics.xyz.

Davina’s article “Where will Singapore’s rubbish go after Semakau Landfill is full?” references our piece in examining the futures of Semakau Landfill and various dimensions of Singapore’s trash issue, including the reduction of recycling in Singapore.

Cosmogrammatics.xyz: A growing repository of experimental practices is an interdisciplinary platform run by Michaela Büsse and designed by Moritz Grenner-Petter. The interdisciplinary platform asks the questions: What counts as a field? How do media and methods participate in knowledge-making? What forms of publication can reflect the complexity of the research process itself?

Our piece, “Semakau Landfill Beyond 2035” profiles Singapore’s Semakau Island as sustainable testbed and site embodying Singapore’s trash problem as its solution. We also offer four speculative projections for its future.
