The Earthly Realm is Out of Balance is a research-driven, choose-your-own-adventure game featuring a custom-built chatbot that needs your help. By texting with the chatbot, you are conversing with ‘The Interface’, an otherworldly guardian who tends to a cosmic library, called The Hall of Understandings. The purpose of this imagined knowledge centre is to bring together different perspectives, practices, and provocations on ancestry.

Due to lack of use, the library has fallen into disrepair: the ecological, political, and spiritual consequences of which are becoming harder and harder to reverse. By contributing your reflections on ancestry, or exploring existing extracts from The Hall of Understandings, you help The Interface, and the library, to rebuild.

With your participation, The Earthly Realm is Out of Balance can become an archive which is premised on a healing, collective, and nuanced discussion around belonging, whilst also reflecting the intergenerational web of connections of which we are all part.
