Arctic Perspective


In August, Cahier No. 3 of the series "Arctic Perspective" will be published. After Architecture (No.1), Arctic Geopolitics and Autonomy (No 2.), it's focus will be on Technology.

Arctic Perspective uses media art and the research of artists to investigate the complicated, global, cultural, and ecological interrelations in the Arctic, and to develop concepts for constructing tactical communications systems and a mobile, eco-friendly research station, which will support interdisciplinary and intercultural collaborations. Scheduled to run over a period of years, this project will involve workshops, field work in the Arctic, publications, exhibitions, and a conference.
