    Insurgent Geology: Dismantling Alaska’s Petrostate

    (2025-05) Louterbach, Melanie

    Set in Alaska in 2051, Insurgent Geology is a post-oil speculative fiction about hydrocarbons, fossils, power and people. The story blows up pipelines and takes care of the soil and, shifting from deep time to a speculative near future, it calls for Arctic insurrection, environmental geopoetics and social justice. The project critiques geology as an extractive and neocolonial discipline and activity through alternative geosocial practices, mineral kinships, and geoaesthetics in a series of design interventions along the infamous Trans-Alaska Pipeline System.
