Orkney Beside Ocean Time

项目摘要

How do individuals and communities understand Deep Time? A relatively short-term perspective is dominant in contemporary societies as they face the complicated ongoing consequences of landscape change on every aspect of the human life, from agriculture and provision of food and energy to the protection of natural or cultural landscapes. A more holistic and deeper knowledge is required. This 18-month project - 'Orkney: Beside the Ocean of Time' - aims to generate new understandings of the interrelationship between human community, Deep Time and landscape change using an interdisciplinary approach, in which five Early Career Researchers with backgrounds in Social Anthropology, Literature, Archaeology, Palaeoecology and Geology, will work together to find innovative ways to investigate and represent time-depth in landscape, using Orkney as a model. The project will develop and pilot an interdisciplinary methodology that will enable new insights into Orkney's rich literary, geological, palaeoenvironmental and archaeological heritage, which is coupled with contemporary concerns over coastal erosion and the political and economic importance of energy generation. The project will address three main research questions:- How do communities respond and adapt to landscape change?- What is the time-depth of people's engagement with place?- How do we make Deep Time visible? Responding to the challenge of understanding human engagements with the time-depth of landscape change requires the combined insights of Arts, Humanities and Sciences. Researchers will combine their expertise to undertake interdisciplinary fieldwork on Orkney to include: analysis of 19th and 20th century Orcadian literature; investigation of the impact of flooding, the Storegga slide, volcanic ash, and other geological activity; a reanalysis of the Orcadian palaeoenvironmental data; an online database compiling and evaluating legacy Orkney radiocarbon measurements; ethnographic fieldwork (see below). Working together with our project partner, the Pier Arts Centre (Stromness), and in collaboration with a local artist, we will explore creative ways of communicating and representing the results of the fieldwork, and making Deep Time visible. The project will culminate in a public Festival of Deep Time, which will include an exhibition of the artist's collaboration, and a series of public workshops, talks and field-trips, that will enable us to undertake further ethnographic fieldwork, by involving the community in a dialogue about perceptions of time-depth and landscape change. The research findings of the project will also be made available via a project website containing geotagged images, video and other research data, and through the development of a toolkit for researchers wishing to undertake interdisciplinary Science, Arts, and Humanities research in relation to time and/or environmental change.'Orkney: Beside the Ocean of Time' contributes to the Science in Culture Programme by providing opportunities for public engagement with the effects of time on landscape change. It will enable community dialogue about the ways in which the lived environment of Orkney has been, and will continue to be shaped by human and natural activities, in the deep and near past, the present moment, and perhaps most significantly, the as yet, undetermined future.

个人和社区如何理解深度时间？在当代社会中，相对短期的观点占主导地位，因为它们面临着景观变化对人类生活各个方面的复杂持续影响，从农业和粮食和能源供应到自然或文化景观的保护。需要更全面和更深入的知识。这个为期18个月的项目- '奥克尼：“在时间的海洋旁边”-旨在使用跨学科方法对人类社区，深度时间和景观变化之间的相互关系产生新的理解，其中五名具有社会人类学，文学，考古学，古生态学和地质学背景的早期职业研究人员将共同努力，寻找创新的方法来调查和代表景观的时间深度，以奥克尼为模型。该项目将开发和试行一种跨学科的方法，使人们能够对奥克尼丰富的文学、地质、古环境和考古遗产有新的认识，同时考虑到当代对海岸侵蚀的关切以及能源生产的政治和经济重要性。该项目将解决三个主要研究问题：-社区如何应对和适应景观变化？-人们与场所的互动的时间深度是多少？我们如何让深度时间可见？应对理解人类参与景观变化的时间深度的挑战需要艺术，人文和科学的综合见解。研究人员将联合收割机结合他们的专业知识，进行跨学科的实地考察奥克尼，包括：19日和20日世纪奥克尼文献的分析;洪水的影响调查，Storegga幻灯片，火山灰，和其他地质活动;奥克尼古环境数据的重新分析;在线数据库编译和评估遗产奥克尼放射性碳测量;人种学实地考察（见下文）。与我们的项目合作伙伴，码头艺术中心（斯特罗姆内斯）一起工作，并与当地艺术家合作，我们将探索沟通和代表实地考察结果的创造性方式，并使深度时间可见。该项目将在一个公共的深时间节达到高潮，其中将包括艺术家的合作展览，以及一系列的公共研讨会，讲座和实地考察，这将使我们能够进行进一步的民族志实地考察，通过让社区参与关于时间深度和景观变化的对话。该项目的研究成果还将通过一个包含地理标记图像，视频和其他研究数据的项目网站提供，并通过为希望进行与时间和/或环境变化有关的跨学科科学，艺术和人文研究的研究人员开发工具包。奥克尼：“在时间的海洋旁边”通过为公众参与时间对景观变化的影响提供机会，为文化科学计划做出了贡献。它将使社区对话的方式，其中奥克尼的生活环境已经，并将继续由人类和自然活动的形状，在深和不久的过去，现在的时刻，也许最重要的是，尚未确定的未来。
