Australian scholars Alexandra Crosby and Ilaria Vanni are in conversation with Oliver Vodeb about their ideas on Seed Balls as a relational design method. As designers who apply permaculture principles to broader social and cultural issues they have explored and developed potentials of a DIY method to relate with the planty world and with each other in radical ways.

Memefest is an international network engaged in the transformation of social relations through radical design. Our main focus is the decolonisation of knowledge and the public sphere + social and environmental change. We integrate education, publishing, research, and the organization of events, as well as the facilitation and production of various media and interventions in the public sphere. Memefest is independent and operates in collaboration with universities, practitioners and social movements. Our approach counters the management of pedagogy, channels knowledge from different disciplines and connects the university with critical, marginal and counter-cultural positions. We create impossible spaces for deep exchange in the undercurrents.
