Abstract or Description

Peer-reviewed journal article which considers the imaginative capacities of remote sensing instruments in the Arctic Ocean in the context of environmental degradation and indigenous exclusions.

The theme of this issue of Perspecta is ‘Atopia’ – a literal no-place which represents the spatial end-product of a society seemingly flattened by supra-territorial flows of information and material. Contributors were asked to reflect on forms of design practice that ambiguously straddle impossibility and hyperreality. Blurred boundaries – geopolitical, virtual, technical, disciplinary – offer sites for transgressive speculation and critique from beyond the limits of traditional design agency.
