Thinking Through Extinction in the Museum Context

CCSMGH and FAHACS, University of Leeds

How is the current global mass extinction event being communicated by and encountered in musuems?

Dr Dominic O’Key (Postdoctoral Research Fellow, School of Philosophy, Religion and History of Science, University of Leeds)&#x27;Thinking Through Extinction&#x27; is an AHRC-funded research project, based at Leeds, in partnership with Corridor8 and Manchester Museum. The project explores how the current global mass extinction event is communicated by and encountered in public spaces. In this talk, Dom will share insights from his research and reflections on working with a museum to negotiate the challenges of the Sixth Mass Extinction Event and climate crisis.You can read more about the &#x27;Thinking Through Extinction&#x27; project here: https://thinkingthroughextinction.wordpress.com/, and read the online publication facing Extinction here: https://facingextinction.corridor8.co.uk/Image credit: Yermandy, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Die-in.jpg" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">wikipedia</a>
