Monday, Apr 14, 2025, 12 – 1:30 p.m., Gould 208J, “Lunchtime Lectures: The Waterlines Project”
The Waterlines Project aims to contextualize our relationship between history and place to better inform contemporary environmental decision making, urban planning, and our collective sense of stewardship of our landscapes. These exercises integrate several streams of research, disciplinary methods, and community-based approaches bringing together environmental science, cultural understandings, and archival sources with spatial methodologies, artistic design practices, and informed imaginings. This conversation will help contextualize our collective Seattle-based work, while examining the past to visualize a strategy forward into the future.
