Featuring 16 of Aotearoa’s preeminent intellectual luminaries, the conference aims to unpack and explore the potential of Te Moana Meridian: a proposal to relocate the international prime meridian from Greenwich, UK, to its antipodean coordinates in Te Moana-Nui-ā-Kiwa / The Pacific Ocean.
This internationally relevant kaupapa seeks to not only review the function and legitimacy of a core piece of global infrastructure, but reimagine it entirely. and in doing so, consider how humanity might want to collectively and metaphysically locate, relate, and realign itself into the future.
The event is the critical public program as part of the exhibition Te Moana Meridian by Sam Hamilton. The conference will consist of a series of facilitated talanoa, panel discussions, and manaaki featuring experts across art, culture, politics, science, academia, and their many intersections.
