Mississippi. An Anthropocene River
A research project on the novel epistemic, aesthetic, and educational challenges of the Anthropocene
How can the Anthropocene be made recognizable on a regional level without neglecting its complexity? Along the Mississippi, material flows, conflicts and stories that have produced and characterize the Anthropocene become condensed. Over the course of a year, scientists, artists and activists, in collaboration with local initiatives in the United States, researched specific local approaches to planetary changes.
