The Cloud Project is a modified ice-cream van that present a series of experiments to make clouds snow ice-cream. Inspired by developments in nanotechnology ad planetary-scale-engineering, it points to new possibilities where we develop the means to conform the global environment to our needs. It was developed as a tool for public engagement, performance and spectacle with the goal to amaze and inspire people to think critically about their relationship to emerging technologies and weather modification. Merging popular culture and science, the van also hosted a series of talks from scientists, artists and designers to offer the people various sometime conflicting views on what the futur may have in store for us. Cathrine Kramer and Zoe Papadopoulo will present the development of the cloud project and give a whistle-stop tour of the places and people they met along the way.
