SUMMARY:Deconstructing Computational Colonialism: An Eco-Relational Framew
 ork for Decolonial AI Art (1960s-Present)
DESCRIPTION:Yuan Zhuang (Shandong University); Ze Gao (Cyanpuppets); Mengy
 ao Guo (Harbin Institute of Technology(Shenzhen)); and Kexin Nie (Sydney C
 ollege of the Arts, The University of Sydney)\n\nComputational technologie
 s integrated into ecological art paradoxically perpetuate anthropocentric 
 violence despite their environmental ethos, constrained by Western-centric
  datasets and unsustainable practices. This study critically examines this
  historical tension from 1960s land art to contemporary bio-digital works.
  Current AI eco-art manifests a fundamental contradiction where tools inte
 nded for ecological care instead enable computational colonialism through 
 epistemological erasure, material extraction, and ethical hypocrisy. We de
 velop the Earmarked Eco-Relationship Framework(EERF), transforming computa
 tional systems into ecological negotiators through decolonial data protoco
 ls, entropic material accounting, and redistributed agency mechanisms. App
 lied through case studies (for example, Hong Kong's blockchain-mediated ma
 ngrove restoration), this framework proves algorithmic systems can serve a
 s active co-stewards rather than extractive tools. This work advances ecol
 ogical art beyond virtual representation by establishing a tripartite meth
 odology for shifting the paradigm from human-centered control to actionabl
 e multispecies material ethics and fostering symbiotic co-creation.\n\nReg
