Streaming is now the default way to watch films.
Its environmental footprint, though largely invisible, drives rising digital emissions.
Streaming platforms optimise for frictionless engagement through autoplay, infinite scroll and algorithmic feeds, driving overconsumption and rising energy demand.
At the same time, open archives preserve film heritage but lack the visibility and context needed for wider access.

We designed Cineco as a digital cinema platform that combines curated discovery, non-algorithmic interaction and collective engagement, establishing streaming as a space for cultural connection rather than passive consumption.
