Since 2017, the Ocean Memory Project has brought together a broad range of scientists, artists, and other creative practitioners and knowledge-generators in a transdisciplinary initiative that investigates how the ocean encodes, retains, and expresses memory across biological, chemical, and environmental systems.
Emerging from a National Academies Keck Futures Initiative, this project fosters collaboration through in-person and virtual workshops, creative projects, seed grants and immersive experiences.
Our strength lies in the diversity of perspectives that shape how we understand the world. The Ocean Memory Project is a growing collaborative network of over 120 researchers spanning disciplines across the sciences, the arts and the humanities and multiple ways of knowing. As we bring the ocean’s memories into our collective awareness, this dynamic community fosters new ways of thinking, researching, and making, aiming for a sea change in how we address the challenges of the Anthropocene.
Workshops are the core of the Ocean Memory Project. They bring together diverse voices to explore what ocean memory reveals about our planet and ourselves. Through these gatherings, we build models for transdisciplinary collaboration, sparking new ideas and partnerships.
