The Museum of the Anthropocene (MoA) is an experimental and interactive program that creates short-term, interactive, and networked exhibitions in communities around the globe. Bringing together knowledge from across the disciplines, MoA installations explore the ways in which new knowledge emerges when scientists, social scientists, humanists, and artists work together with local communities. This presentation will discuss the theoretical framework for thinking about a museum in the Anthropocene as well as introduce the audience to its current project, The Decomposition Symphony.
