Interpreting Reality In The Anthropocene, Jake Philip Hamill
Interpreting Reality In The Anthropocene, Jake Philip Hamill
LSU Master's Theses
In this paper, I would like to propose that abundant beautification techniques in contemporary nature documentaries are counterproductive when attempting to address humans’ impact on our planet. By utilizing technology there could be a new way to educate ourselves about the Anthropocene on platforms such as Google Earth where one can view nature, statistics, and art by location. With limited data, learning about our effects on nature in its entirety is close to impossible but art can allow us to try and reveal new hidden connections.
