The visual system—featuring a distinctive palette and custom animations—traces light’s journey from orbital arrays to Earth’s energy grids, while strategic positioning resonates with utility operators, data center developers, policymakers, and investors.

Sharebite in Fast Co’s Most Innovative Companies

Posted on by landscape

For turning corporate meals into a program that nourishes the entire community

That slop bowl you enjoy at your desk for lunch, courtesy of your employer, is more than a perk—it’s potentially a powerful way to combat local food insecurity. Sharebite launched in 2017 as a meal benefits program with a one-for-one model of donating one meal for every order placed—and has donated more than 17 million meals and counting to Feeding America and City Harvest. 

Sharebite has found success with a private sector approach to tackling America’s hunger crisis, with revenue surging 1,223% in three years. But the company also seeks out efficiencies that benefit local businesses and the environment. By utilizing a proprietary order-batching algorithm, Sharebite reduces delivery times and carbon emissions, while helping 80% of merchants avoid costly third-party platform fees.

Along the way, the company has brought some high-profile companies to the table—including Stitch Fix, Ring, Audible, Warner Music Group, and Wieden+Kennedy. By linking a company’s success to scale societal impact, Sharebite is nourishing local communities one meal at a time.

Taxonomy of Slop

Posted on by landscape

Landscape is pleased to present [E23] Taxonomy of Slop, an evening led by Ruby Justice Thelot in conversation with Daniel Keller and Duncan Wilson exploring how the material and computational forces shaping images have evolved—from physical constraints to algorithmic feedback loops to fully autonomous visual systems.

This is the second event in a two-part exploration of image culture. Where the first event, [E21] Escaping Peak Visuality, explored the exhaustion of images and the potential for exit through multi-sensory, embodied experiences, [E23] Taxonomy of Slop turns back toward the image itself. The forces acting on visual culture have always been material—governed by optics, networks, and optimization functions. The talk traces this arc from the camera to the feed to the synthetic image, arriving at a speculative endpoint: a hyper-real image environment no longer centered on human authorship or perception.

Join us for an evening examining what it means to produce and encounter images today.

Ruby Justice Thelot is a designer, artist, and cyberethnographer based in New York City. He is a professor of design and media studies at NYU. His work focuses on digital phenomenology, virtual ontology and the implications of being-on-line. 


A moderated discussion features:

Daniel Keller is a “former artist,” internet theorist, writer, and entrepreneur who has exhibited internationally as a solo artist and as half of Aids-3D. He was formerly co-founder of New Models and Channel. He is currently an associate investor at ADIN, an agentic early-stage venture fund launched by Tribute Labs. He is the coiner of “sloptimism”, aka ‘the panglossian embrace of the total output of the attention economy’

Duncan Wilson is a team lead at Midjourney, a community-funded research lab focused on amplifying humanity’s potential. He has written articles and appeared on panels about automated imagery and its role in culture. His own artistic practice focuses on the boundary of low-cost generation and automated, technical manufacturing.
