Mapping the Anthropocene: Exhibition Late and Panel Discussion

Join us for a lively discussion with the team behind the project, chaired by Inge Panneels, inviting artists Lise Autogena and Joshua Portway and guest speaker Chris Fleet, Map curator at the National Library of Scotland, to speak about mapping as a tool to better understand complex data and the world around us. We’ll invite different perspectives of different types of data; e.g. economic, climate, environmental data and together explore how through visualising these systems and processes, their meaning can be expanded and better accessed and understood.

Speakers:
Inge Paneels (chair) - Artist, researcher and lecturer in Service Design at University of Edinburgh
Lise Autogena - Data visualisation designer, artist, and researcher
Joshua Portway - Artist and game designer
Chris Fleet - Web archivist, National Library of Scotland
