JOIN THE TEAM
All participants are teammates in this global initiative. The success of this project depends on you. All of our contributions build this archive and shape artistic expression.
THE REPOSITORY
This site is a repository for observations, reflections and collections from this global pandemic. It hosts voices of many featuring content from familial, social, creative and scientific networks.
OPEN SOURCE
Our team operates as a collaborative, and open source body. We share data, processes, and ideas.
TIME CAPSULE
The stories, reflections, and data captured through this project will be stored in several time capsules.
These will be stored on Earth and planted on the Moon in 2022 with Arch Mission,
Lifeship,
and Beyond Earth.
CREATORS
Great Pause Project is initiated by artists Isabel Beavers, Richelle Gribble, Elena Soterakis, and core collaborators Yoko Shimizu and Ben Haldeman. Special thanks to our collaborative partner organizations and galleries. Together, we will shape a comprehensive repository for the social sciences and the arts.
As this project evolves, we aim to build a platform that is inclusive of many experiences and actively engages a wide range of voices. To help with translation and dissemination or to expand upon this process please contact us at greatpauseproject@gmail.com.
