RTiVISS proposes innovative ways of conceiving both digital media arts and cutting edge environmentally sustainable practices through critical research and experimental approaches. Multiplatform devices will provide access to real-time networked video for users to "adopt" selected forests. The interactive system feeds a broad community sharing "the emotion of real-time" and the challenge of uncertainty, remotely monitoring natural environments for forests protection and aesthetic exploration.
An activist facet sparks due to the potential of contributing to forests preservation and, ultimately, to a more sustainable world.

Real-time Video Interactive Systems for Sustainability is part of a PhD research in Digital Media in the framework of the UT Austin-Portugal Program by Mónica Mendes, with Nuno Correia and Sílvia Chicó as advisors.
RTiVISS proposes innovative use of real-time video in artistic contexts, simultaneously contributing to help forest protection. Assuming a surveillance metaphor, can we conceive a project that is both artistic and functional?
