Moving Image Moving Earth (MIME) is an ongoing transdisciplinary and collaborative arts-based research project bringing together geology, aesthetics, local knowledge and moving image practices to explore how understandings of deep time are formed, mediated and made perceptible.
The project is currently in its pilot phase, developed as an experimental, site-sensitive “living lab” focusing on co-creation, knowledge exchange and situated observation. Through fieldwork, workshops and moving image, MIME investigates how geological knowledge is learned, shared and imagined.
MIME is is developed in dialogue with researchers and students at the Department of Geosciences (University of Oslo), the Department of Art History, Aesthetics & Culture and Museology (Aarhus University), and the Department of Film and Media (Kristiania University College). The pilot phase is hosted by the intermedial arts & research studio Våg Productions. More material will be shared as the project evolves.
