O’CONNELL, Caela (UNCCH) Unmoored: The Unmaking of Our Environmental Futures After Disaster. What happens to ongoing environmental conservation initiatives when disasters strike and how does this disrupt socio-environmental futures? If a modeler’s goal is to be able to say what will happen efficiently and accurately, mine is the inverse. I aim to take what is known and has happened already— the legacy of underlying inequalities and extraction and un-model it. In doing so, I am imagining the infrastructure, community, and culture of a future time that could be radically different by leveraging the power of the anthropological lens to demonstrate fictive un-made futures as a way to ensure they never come to be.
