We are a growing collaborative network of more than 50 researchers from across the Sciences, Arts and Humanities dedicated to exploring the intersection of Ocean and Memory, and advancing Ocean Memory as a new field of scholarship and creative expression.
The perspectives and opinions within our collective are wide-ranging and not always compatible. We find that they spark creativity. We believe that this diversity of viewpoints is a strength, one that enriches the ways in which we can understand the world.
As the ocean’s memories are brought into our collective awareness, this thriving community of artists, scientists and other scholars aims for a sea change in our ability to address challenges of the Anthropocene. Our activities include grants to transdisciplinary teams to tackle issues of ocean conservation, residencies for early career thinkers and doers, and workshops and gatherings to explore what ocean memory can teach us about the blue planet and ourselves, develop models for successful transdisciplinary collaborations, and find innovative pathways to positive impacts.
We appreciate any and all forms of support. Monetary donations are essential to our growth, and can be accomplished virtually via the options to the right. We also seek a variety of other partnerships in exploration.
