The Birdsong Fossil
Solarpunk
Multispecies Cities (World Weaver Press)
In the midst of the Earth's sixth mass extinction,
hundreds of species are lost every year. As
scientists scramble to preserve the DNA of vanishing
species, bio-roboticist Yuzuki Alvarez is determined
to preserve the rich and complex culture of animals.
Pushing the boundaries of the possible, she races to
recreate their minds - their souls - in robotic
form. But as the maelstrom of the Anthropocene
intensifies, time is running out.
"D.K. Mok’s
funny, passionate “The Birdsong Fossil” dives deep
into the concept of animal culture."
