EVERYTHING WE KNEW ABOUT IT (2017)
Social engagement; Collaborate zine
New York Hall of Science. Queens, New York
Visitors told me everything they knew about about a given subject (here, rats) telling me stories, drawing me pictures and diagrams, translating important vocabulary, and offering valuable speculation. Findings were collected into this small publication, produced on the office photocopier.
An exploration of the role of science, lateral knowledge building, and the question of what makes for a productive discourse, visitors helped me compile findings concerning our collective understanding of the rat as metaphor, interloper, and communal experience.
