Service Description

Cosmos — Digital Ecology + AI Integration For artists, educators, independent practitioners, community projects and small teams who need technology to support their work without becoming the work We can examine your website, social media, publishing rhythms, archives, documentation, accessibility, content circulation and existing workflows, then identify where AI or other digital tools can reduce unnecessary labor, strengthen infrastructure or help disconnected parts of the practice communicate. This is not about producing more content because technology makes more production possible. We can determine what should be automated, what needs human attention, what can be reused or circulated differently and what does not need to happen at all AI integration can include workflow development, prompting practices, research and organizational systems, editorial support, documentation, content transformation and developing responsible ways to incorporate AI into an existing creative or community practice. The $244 consultation can stand alone or become the beginning of a larger engagement. Additional strategy, workflow development, AI integration, training, implementation or systems work is available beginning at $188/hour. Larger organizational or implementation projects may be quoted separately. Scope of work: I provide creative, educational and workflow consultation rather than IT administration, cybersecurity, software engineering or legal/compliance advice. Implementation beyond the consultation can be scoped separately. Ethics + Nuance Ethics require accounting for the whole ecology, not isolating the newest technology. My approach to AI is neither uncritical adoption nor blanket refusal. AI exists within a digital ecology already shaped by extraction, labor, surveillance, energy and water use, devices, platforms and planned obsolescence. It intensifies some of these conditions; it did not invent them. Ethical integration asks what a technology consumes, whose labor and knowledge sustain it, what it extracts or makes accessible, and whether its use actually serves the body, community, work and environment. Technological ethics require memory: we cannot evaluate what has arrived without accounting for what built the conditions for its arrival.
