Claire Evans is half of YACHT, a "band, business, and belief system" started by Jona Bechtolt in 2002. In addition to her musical/artistic adventures, she's also a writer and regular science blogger. Unlike most bands, YACHT has a developed a detailed and public philosophy (read their FAQ or visit the YACHT Trust for more details) and they regularly explore ideas about the future in their work. I was especially intrigued by the themes of utopia and dystopia which tie together their album Shangri-La.
My conversation with Claire is a little different from most earlier episodes of The Conversation—it is more exploratory, less prescriptive, and has the rhythm of an actual conversation rather than an interview. It's a nice change of pace.

@TheConversation: ;) mozzies are little blighters. They've started to come and suck blood from our fair Irish skin over the last couple of years. This climate change business is just taking the piss now. Anyway your sounds sound great! They were so upfront at parts I was sure they were samples. Nice page by the way ;)

@MS44: We recorded in the back patio of The Body Actualized Center in Brooklyn, NY. The mosquitoes don't come out on tape, but they represented.
