Interview with De:Formal - https://www.deformal.com/artists/sophie-rogers

The work I’m showed with De:Formal and New Art City was a digital installation of research for a game I am building called 3 Minutes to Midnight. The residency has provided time for some initial research and scene building, so populated the online space with snippets of image making/world building, research and sound.

The project takes its starting point at the moment in 2007, when climate change was added as a factor affecting the Doomsday Clock. The Doomsday Clock was introduced in 1947 by the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists and is a metaphorical, non-linear clock which represents scientists’ estimation of how close we are to global catastrophe.  In 2007,  the Bulletin expanded the clock to include climate change as one of the greatest man-made threats to humankind. At that point, the time jumped to 3 minutes to midnight.

The project will inhabit this temporality, the time of impending apocalypse, a time in fairytales associated with the breaking of a spell and a time that relates to our age commonly referred to as the Anthropocene; a time of great urgency and consequence. Research into Haraway’s articulation of the Chthulucene will inform the work along with a more focussed interrogation of multi-species survival with a particular focus on fungal networks and interspecies communication.

The project is funded by Arts Council England
