Nocturnal Medicine is a nonprofit design studio taking on the larger-than-life challenges of today's environment. Founded by Larissa Belcic & Michelle Shofet in 2016, their mission is to transform cultural relationships to the environment through design. Nocturnal Medicine operates on the understanding that issues like climate change emerge from cultural dynamics that govern how we live with nature. In response, they research complex socio-ecological issues & design innovative methods for addressing them in community. The Nocturnal Medicine toolkit includes ritual, sensory immersion, experiential education, dance, & collective meditation. Their work helps build the cultural infrastructure necessary for accelerating social change and nurturing a culture of resilience.
