VEMORK PIPELINE

The historical penstock pipeline that runs down the mountainside to the Vemork Hydroelectric Station was used as an antenna to be able to detect and record the electromagnetic frequencies that are currently being emitted throughout Rjukan.


The data and metadata recorded along with the audio was used to generate text using a neural network trained on the history of Rjukan and solarpunk and sci-fi literature. For this location the network created Dr. Mondragon Mondelains, a petroglypher working in the year 2311, speaking on the necessity of learning a common language with the landscape and ecosystems we are embedded within.
