The pieces that constitute “image.noise.map.data” were created by extracting color palettes from landscapes of the Southern Rockies ecoregion and then using R to insert randomly ordered sequences of pixels with those color values in images containing the contour of the region.

The watercolor paint used for “Half a Gram of CO2” was created by collecting and grinding pieces of charcoal left on the ground from the 2020 Cameron Peak Fire. Based on rough estimates of carbon content in charcoal, the pigment used on the page contains enough carbon for approximately half a gram of CO2.

These pieces depict a meadow at the CU Boulder South Campus. The watercolor studies created during the codefest imagine the location before, during, and after a wildfire–a major theme of the Forest Carbon Codefest. The acrylic painting combines imagery from each of these studies. [You can view Luis' website and more work here](https://www.luisxdepablo.com/).

## The critical role of art-science collaborations
5659

5760
Art-science collaborations are becoming increasingly important to improve scientific communication and encourage real-world behavior shifts. For years, scientists have  conducted complex research and disseminated their findings via scientific journals. However, in this process, the overall message scientists aim to communicate can often be misunderstood or altogether ignored due to the complex language used to explain their research (Opermanis et al. 2015). This significantly hinders the scientific method because it cuts off the final step: communicating results. There is no use in doing science at all if one’s findings are incomprehensible. “It is important to stay fluid as to how research can be communicated,” said Erin Espelie, co-director of NEST. Through storytelling and creative representations of data, art-science collaborations seek to bridge this gap by creating emotional connection. In the context of environmental science, these connections can encourage sustainable actions and mindsets.
