Employing science\, storytelling\, and encounters from earth’s most remote locations\, we combat environmental apathy and further understanding of how the ocean functions\, in order to better protect it. \n  \nABOUT THE PROJECT AND PARTNER: \nOcean Archive is a digital platform in the making; an archive and repository for collaborative research. It brings together the multitude of voices and stories around the Ocean and connects those striving to nurture and protect it. Initiated by TBA21–Academy\, Ocean Archive is designed to be a pedagogical\, research and storytelling tool for a broad audience\, translating current knowledge about the ocean into a common ground aimed to enable us to make better decisions for urgently needed policies. Ocean Archive supports collaboration for a living ocean. The platform helps artists and scientific organisations find each other. It promotes decentralised cooperation between contributors and users and connects major international initiatives to other sources of knowledge\, marginalised geographies and aesthetic approaches. \nJumpstarting the first developmental stage of Ocean Archive\, the initiative will be introduced to the world in coordination with the IPCC special report on Oceans and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate. Phenomenal Ocean\, a day of ideas for a new ocean language\, curated by Chus Martínez\, Expedition Leader of the second cycle of TBA21–Academy’s fellowship programme The Current. The public gathering\, taking place at Ocean Space — a collaborative embassy for the Oceans in Venice\, will be structured as a series of interviews with experts\, scientists\, artists\, musicians\, and activists discussing the tools we need to perform better for a living ocean. \nAs part of the response to the upcoming report\, Ocean Archive invited arts and culture organisations worldwide to participate in a network of autonomous events to be held on the same day. By supporting local initiatives for ocean conservation and protection\, these partner events will create spaces to gather a community around shared concerns and collective actions\, advocating for amplified regional responses to climate justice for a living ocean. \nOcean Archive is being developed in collaboration with Across the Cloud. \n  \nTBA21–Academy leads artists\, scientists\, and thought-leaders on expeditions of collaborative discovery. Founded by Francesca Thyssen-Bornemisza and led by Director Markus Reymann\, the Academy is dedicated to fostering a deeper understanding of the ocean through the lens of art and to engendering creative solutions to its most pressing issues. Established in 2011\, the nonprofit’s programme is informed by a belief in the power of exchange between disciplines and in the ability of the arts as a vessel for communication\, change\, and action.
