Word Whether Weathers was an interactive durational writing performance that considered the radical nature of now-ness as a temporal state of atmospheric contingency bound by location, observation and critical reflection on the state of a biosphere in crisis. Over the course of a full day, we collaborated, wrote, read, imaged, responded, edited, augmented, and supplemented a single online document visible to all conference participants. Our collective efforts to become weather: to mark the moment of the moment, at the cusp of fiction and non-fiction, the transition from navigational, geographical, and meteorological thought and the emergence of an extended dawn around the globe.
