During the colloquium, participants produced outlines of preliminary ideas about how to explore this common ground through the prism of their respective specialisms (petroleum engineering, petroleum geology, social ecology, art, environmental humanities, architecture and history) and are currently working on the final versions of their respective contributions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>While the workshop was not accessible to the general public, the colloquium results will be published in book form in 2023.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"color:#ddd\" class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-spacer gb-block-spacer gb-divider-solid gb-divider-size-1\"><hr style=\"height:13px\"\/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The visibility\/invisibility of oil workshop is devoted to the production of an academic text focusing on how oil\u2019s visibility and invisibility affect the ways it is represented culturally and perceived socially.
