Collaboration with artist Mark Kasumovic – capturing fieldwork seasons in Crete, S.E. Asia 

I have been collaborating with Dr Mark Kasumovic, an award-winning Canadian artist and academic based in the UK (De Monfort University). His current project investigates the relationships between technology and knowledge production within the context of scientific research. He accompanied our teams in Vietnam and Crete in 2023. In addition to recording materials for his own art project (work ongoing), Mark took a series of conventional fieldwork photos which can be seen via the links above.
