Walking with minerals

• Through moving images and an audible collage of texts, this presentation will unearth learnings from a disused limestone quarry in the south of Sweden. The mineral walks undertaken here, curated and guided by two designers and researchers, are situated and materially immersed explorations of our relations to more-than-human entities like rocks, stones and minerals, asking: How do the ways in which we think matter, material and time, predetermine, limit, or enable the way we then construct our relations to place, to objects as well as communities of human and nonhuman earth others? Without the driving beat of progression in this post-industrial site, we reorienting our attention to more-than-human world-makings, through walking in silence, noticing the fossilized strata as transformations from living organisms to geological sedimented rock over deep timescales, trying to grasp the vibrancy inherent in the mineral.
