Abstract
Nordic Connections Prototype, Video of online interactive exhibition, 10 min, 2022.
Finlay Macdonald, Roxane Permar, Susan Timmins with content contributed by participants in Nordic Connections.
This film introduces the online mixed media environment produced by participants in the pilot project Nordic Connections: learning from the past to shape the futures. The project
explored two issues that threaten contemporary society — catastrophic climate change and nuclear disaster. The project explores engagement in arts projects as a means to diminish anxiety around the fears linked to these issues and to foster a sustainable future by finding imaginative ways to communicate the impacts of these societal threats. The radome, a form of Cold War architecture familiar to northern and Arctic communities in NATO’s early defence warning system, forms the basis for the creation of this Prototype which incorporates material created in the project including a film, audio recordings and drawings as well as excerpts from researchers’ presentations about the nuclear threat and marine pollution from micro plastics and marine debris.
