#tectonics

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

A great first day of #Tectonics yesterday in Glasgow. Lots of amazing music, but a particular highlight for me was Rachel Musson and Mark Sanders’ improvisatory collaboration with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra: sometimes fierce and invocatory, and at others tender and brooding.

Lovely to meet @jules_rawlinson too!

Looking forward to the surprises today’s second day will inevitably bring. Was anyone else there?

Modelling suggests that Earth's first crust, which fractionated from a magma ocean, would have had a similar trace element composition to modern continental crust: in other words, this signature is not a reliable marker of subduction and plate tectonics on the young Earth.

Live Science · Study reveals 'flawed argument' in debate over when plate tectonics beganBy Stephanie Pappas

"The heavy meteor bombardment during this early period caused extensive disruption and recycling of the crust.

Plate tectonics may have worked in fits and starts, triggered by meteor impacts until about 3.8 billion years ago, when meteor bombardment decreased dramatically as the early Solar System’s chaos gave way to more orderly orbits."

Initial spatial fragments developed for the observatory in Remiseparken.

The project was part of my Master's at The Royal Danish Academy. I developed a spatial program with a point of departure in soil as a catalyst for exploring and learning in and within nature.

The spatial fragments consists of 1:20 models in rammed earth and wood to test certain spatial situations and the tectonic language when working with soil as a structural material.
