Involving HMKV (Germany), Projekt Atol (Slovenia), the Arts Catalyst (United Kingdom), C-TASC (Canada), and Lorna (Iceland), this collaboration focuses on the global, cultural, and ecological significance of the polar regions. These zones are causing current geopolitical and territorial conflicts, while at the same time posing opportunities for transnational and intercultural cooperation. 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.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 114 pages : illustrations (some color), maps ; 25 cm. Abstract:Comprises five essays exploring influence of technology on autonomy of Arctic peoples.

Argues that absence of these qualities and increasing reliance on Western technological systems leads to loss of flexibility and responsiveness that endangers capacity to survive unprecedented change. Contents: Introduction / Michael Bravo with Nicola Triscott Critical art and intervention in the technologies of the Arctic / Nicola Triscott Building autonomy through experiments in technology and skill / Michael Bravo Traveling through layers: Inuit artists appropriate new technologies / Katarina Soukup Trails and tales: multiple stories of human movement and modernity / David Turnbull Post-Cold War Arctic geopolitics: where are the people and the environment? / Lassi Heininen.
