Project Launch: A People's Atlas of Nuclear Colorado
September 14, 11am–12:30pm Eastern
Join us for the virtual public launch of “A People’s Atlas of Nuclear Colorado,” a digital public humanities project co-edited by Sarah Kanouse and Shiloh Krupar that documents and interprets nuclear geographies and legacies of the Cold War. The Atlas draws together background information, archival materials, accessible scholarly essays, and artist interventions. Grounded in the specific location of Colorado and its nuclear materials and ecologies, the Atlas allows users to explore the US nuclear complex and its many scales of operation, relational geographies, and troubling future.
Following an introduction and short demo by the editors, panelists will provide insight into their contributions. The event will conclude with discussion on further expanding on this material in educational, policy, and community settings.
This virtual event is free and open to the public, but registration is required. RSVP here for Zoom link. We will be including automated live captioning during the event. To make space for informal discussions, this event will not be recorded. Please see the
event page and attached flyer for more details.
