Mapping Migration Memories is a multiyear research project under the (IN)>TANGIBLE_LAB in VCUArts Qatar. The Lab is gathering existing archived recorded memories and oral histories of the biannual Qatari migration. This mass movement of people, in sync with the turning of the planet and the shifting of the seasons, now exists as oral history and archived footage. We will share our research process of sourcing, collecting, translating, transcribing and visualizing migration memories into physical maps that become re-enacted in the desert. (IN)>TANGIBLE_LAB seeks to preserve and extend Living Culture and Traditional Ecological Knowledge.
