Pixel as a Seed: Montauk Climate Week
Montauk Climate, a climate tech incubator focused on building impactful companies through strategic collaboration with mission-driven founders, sought to stand out in one of the industry’s busiest periods, NYC Climate Week. Their approach emphasizes the optimization of capital, talent, and ideas to foster success in the climate technology sector by partnering with Toronto-based digital artist Diana Lynn VanderMeulen to create an immersive experience titled “Pixel As Seed.” The installation explored the intersection of digital art and land conservation, drawing inspiration from the artist’s personal experience in revitalizing unused farmland. The pixelated ecological imagery invited attendees to contemplate the relationship between technology and environmental preservation.
The art installation was unveiled at Shift Midtown, a floor-to-ceiling seamless projection environment, earning Montauk Climate recognition as having a standout gathering and successfully differentiating itself, while fostering meaningful connections between climate tech leaders and innovators.
