Thanks to @katieu for this fantastic profile of our 2019 A-in-R #RoderickCoover & his integral contributions to last week’s #LearningwithWaters convening. We’ll be showcasing his work again in November as part of our “Environmental Storytelling in/as VR” festival, so stay tuned!!

Thank you for being there, Elaine, and for your beautiful presentation! #learningwithwaters

Looking at assemblages (rather than single species or environments), and following the world-making capacities of other (non-human) agents give us different analytic lenses for understanding rivers @elainemgan #LearningwithWaters

Dormancy in plant species (like rice), [and floods, migrations]: multi species temporalities offer circular/rhythmic/periodic understandings of time away from linear models @elainemgan @PPEHLab #envhums #learningwithwaters

@PPEHLab “If we think with other species or other ways of life... If we think of other capacities, our terms for time change.” -Elaine Gan #LearningWithWaters

Finally,@elainemgan on multispecies entanglement in rice monocultures, temporalities shift as harvests speed up in engineered rice strains, insects respond w/ masting-like pop spikes(thinking here of taming cycles & #superweeds in the #capitalocene) #learningwithwaters @PPEHLab

.@elainemgan How might we study a river (here the Mekong) as a web of interdependent ecologies and economies? #LearningwithWaters

“If we want to be serious about making change, we need to pay attention to how other species make worlds.” @elainemgan #LearningwithWaters

For @elainemgan, art practice is a research method not an illustration, a way of thinking through temporalities #LearningwithWaters

Inspired by the River Severn &Dutch-Indonesian Waters panel, Roderick Coover asks if we might reconceptualize “living with rising waters” as “living with moving mud.” How do we understand solid ground? #LearningwithWaters

Simon Richter now describes Dutch water planning interventions in Semarang, Indonesia in terms of “Garuda Panic,” and the need to shore up the Netherlands’ own global reputation as successful designers of “resilient cities.” @Poldergeist3 #learningwithwaters

“Sometimes change is the most stable feature of a river or estuary.” -@DudleyMarianna #LearningwithWaters

After finding artist #TanaWest’s work— making ceramic art from clay taken from the Severn’s mudflats—@DudleyMarianna invited her to collaborate on public workshops of art-making & formal exhibitions at the U of Bristol on how histories take shape in the mud #LearningwithWaters

Among the questions @DudleyMarianna asks: What does the Severn mean to communities? How does it function w/in energetic networks of power? #LearningwithWaters

. @DudleyMarianna introduces our #LearningwithWaters group to the tidal estuary of the “populated and popular” River Severn — a celebrated, not a forgotten river

Abby McGucken on her work evaluating sustainable development efforts in Eastwick neighborhood and Jolie Gittleman on her project improving water literacy in Philadelphia #LearningwithWaters

In the tradition of @PennSAS 60-sec lectures, @PPEHLab and #risingwaters fellows present their public engagement projects at the #LearningwithWaters convening as 3-min lightening talks

Thanks for great convos, reflections & feedback during the lunch break, parkourians! #embodiedscientist parkour @PPEHLab #learningwithwaters #environmentalperformanceagency

Teaching + learning with Rising Waters with Penn Program in Environmental Humanities. Ben Mendelsohn sharing visual media and earthmoving in Lagos Lagoon. #water #environmentalhealth #learningwithwaters @PPEHLab

Diana Bocajero on Rio Magdalena in Colombia, ecologies of abundance, ecologies of fear, "on how to guard common grounds", everyday condition of subsistence & hope=staying w/ the trouble as more than theoretical framework, recognizing "enmarañamientos" @PPEHLab #learningwithwaters

Kristina Lyons mentions implications of the Amazon as a subject of rights in Colombia- complex! Conservation is militarized in context of national transitional justice process "Rivers Have Memory" #LearningwithWaters @PPEHLab

Now Charisma Acey on Lagos Lagoon: "creativity, ecology & rights to the city" in context international investment in "eco city of the future" vs informal infrastructure built where city doesn't service residents -> leading towards climate apartheid #learningwithwaters @PPEHLab

Roderick Coover @PPEHLab talks #LearningWithWaters about his work around communication and connection on environmental issues through art. “Sustaining is not sustainable”

Abby McGucken on her work evaluating sustainable development efforts in Eastwick neighborhood and Jolie Gittleman on her project improving water literacy in Philadelphia #LearningwithWaters

How can our research questions traverse not just different disciplines but different scales of analysis? #ScottKnowles #learningwithwaters

Among the questions @DudleyMarianna asks: What does the Severn mean to communities? How does it function w/in energetic networks of power? #LearningwithWaters

How are urban artists creating a counter narrative of these (unfinished) large scale coastal development projects? We can think of work of Nigerian artists and musicians as alternative #worldbuilding & #ecosystemmaking #LearningwithWaters

“If you want to study motion, you also have to move!” #Bocarejo describes the shifts in her own research practice working with scientists, artists and fisherpeople along the river basin. #LearningwithWaters

Moving south now, we shift our focus to the Magdalena and Mandur rivers of Colombia with #DianaBocarejo and @PPEHLab and @cee_upenn’s #KristinaLyons #learningwithwaters

Anushri Tiwari (@TISSMumbai) : when the Mithi floods, is it river, natural drain or sewerage network? #LearningwithWaters

Artist-in-residence Roderick Coover describes the methods of his current project #AlteringShores — kayaking the length of the #DelawareEstuary; archival research (postcards, historical maps), digital mapping of toxic sites, and creating a traveler’s log. #LearningWithWaters

#CharismaAcey begins her talk by describing the reliance of residents in areas of Lagos, Nigeria outside the reach of piped water on groundwater and/or water purchase from vendors #learningwithwaters
