C4I is a research center that is devoted to studying the nature of interdisciplinary process. Our work is itself interdisciplinary, reflecting philosophy, social science methodology, interdisciplinary theory, sustainability science, art-science, communication, and fine art. We list all of the publications and creative work produced by C4I personnel since our founding in 2017. In co-authored entries, C4I personnel are indicated by boldface.
