Future Island is an island of stones, an environment in flux, built on the new Albano campus in Stockholm. The island is divided along latitude 59°20’40”N into two zones: a warm zone in the north, a cold zone in the south. The north side heats up five degrees (with renewable energy) relative to the surrounding landscape. On the island there is a microecosystem, a biotope of native flora and fauna that constantly adapts to the slowly changing conditions. Sensors will record the changes happening on both sides of the island. This creates a permanent artwork in transformation corresponding to current global warming predictions.
