    What on earth is the planetary?
    (2023) Allen, Jamie; Bolen, Jeremy [in: Anthropocene Curriculum]
    There are efforts being made, and forced upon us, to grapple with the earth as an entity, object, and force. Under the guise of “planetarity,” these efforts span pursuits in the natural sciences of atmospheres, environments, and geologies, the biologies of living and ecologies of nonliving things, and the human knowledge practices that chart social, geopolitical, logistical, and infrastructural globalism. In their video essay project, “The Impossibility of a Planet,” artists and researchers Jeremy Bolen and Jamie Allen engage in dialogues with those who seek to compose planetary-scale images, thinking, narratives, and models. In a companion essay to the video segments, an inquiry into the media and methods of such compositions provides complement. Where do planetarities come from, and where are they taking us?

    Un-/Learning Archives in the Age of the Sixth Extinction
    (2022) Allen, Jamie; Basu, Priyanka; Becerra Valdez, Tamara; Bolen, Jeremy; Browne, Simon; Cahill, Susan; Hogan, Mél; Rowell, Steve
    This workshop will deal with archives as related to overlapping sites of nature/culture, climate change, deep time and the built environment. Is the archive a viable repository of potential regenerative material for the future? Can it be an input in a positive feedback system of mutually assured destruction – an irrational fear response in the face of loss that condemns that which is not-yet-dead to the already-past?

    The Impossibility of a Planet
    (2022) Bolen, Jeremy; Allen, Jamie; Basu, Priyanka; Valdez, Tamara Becerra; Browne, Simone; Cahill, Susan; Hogan, Mél; Rowell, Steve
    There are people in the world who are acutely aware of the planet they live on. Due to various and chosen pathways, attentions, vocations, situations or surroundings, these people use or choose the Earth as their frame of reference; the ground from which they think and act is planetary. In the geosciences and natural sciences this includes those who sample and interpolate data all over the globe, or derive large scale models of planet-wide systems. In economics and geopolitics, this includes those who monitor, template and influence things like currencies and economies, trade and shipping, conflict and policy. In the humanities and social sciences it is those who take up topics of the Anthropocene and the technosphere, those whose tendency is to attempt to describe the historical importance and transitions of (our always natural) global histories.

    The Impossibility of a Planet
    (Haus der Kulturen der Welt, 2022) Bolen, Jeremy; D'Aguiar, Adrian; Allen, Jamie; Rossee, Carlina [in: Collaborative Practice on a Changing Planet]
    The Impossibility of a Planet is a collaborative, multichannel documentary, produced with artist and researcher Jeremy Bolen. Motion graphics by Adriano D'Aguiar. The project touches on the practices of people whose work, research, practice and thought default to 'planetary magnitudes'. The project canvases international contacts in communities of geoscience, geopolitics, anthropology and journalism, whose practices are necessarily and often in different ways ‘global’ in scope, asking, also through the experience of a pandemic, where and how do we continue this work? What motivates planetary-scale projects and work, as technologies increasingly mediate our relations to one another and the planet? How do we undertake and understand new lines of communication, trust and intimacy with our collaborators and peers? How do ‘empirical research’ and fieldwork change when access to the field, lab and locales of this research change often and in important ways? A write up of the project is included in The Whole Life: An Archive Project'sUn-/Learning Archives in the Age of the Sixth Extinction. A set of six video vignettes conjoin to form a contiguous film, to be screened online and in an offline exhibition installation. Initial presentations include an evening screening as part of the Collaborative Practice on a Changing Planet public events at HKW Haus der Kulturen der Welt The Impossibility of a Planet tells a story of how global science and knowledge are composed, and sometimes decompose. Interviews with 'planetary practitioners' are continually added to the work through multiple versions and public exhibitions. Current discussion partners include Tina Sikka, Jim Igoe, Will Steffen, Allison Stegner, Jan Zalasiewicz, Gabriela Barreto Lemos, Tim Lenton, Michael Mazarr, Jinnah Zubar, Peter Haff, Ron Milo, Ana Mizher, Manfred Laubichler, Simon Turner, Mark Williams, Friederike Otto and Cymene Howe, amongst many others.
