Dominic Boyer

Rice University

Professor

Dr. Dominic Boyer is an anthropologist, media maker and co-founder of the field of Energy Humanities. He leads Rice University’s Center for Coastal Futures and Adaptive Resilience (CFAR) and Social Design Lab (SDL). His design for the world’s first glacier memorial was named a Finalist for a 2020 Beazley Design of the Year Award by the London Design Museum. The same project inspired The Economist to create its first-ever obituary for a non-human. Boyer’s most recent book is No More Fossils (U Minnesota Press, 2023), a discussion of the fossilization of fossil fuels and the coming societal transition from petroculture to electroculture.
