Under concepts such as Blue Economy, industrial and investment projects are being conceived which are (or will be) carried out in the sea. These projects are &#x27;rolled out&#x27; based on the idea that man must cultivate everything that is pristine and subdue and colonise nature, in this case, the sea and the deep sea. Yet, does the sea have its word to say?A spectacular new trend is deep-sea mining, in which the Netherlands and Belgium play a prominent role. This new industry is to take place deep in the ocean, 4 to 5 kilometres below sea level and de facto escapes our view. Its excavators are shrouded in industrial secrecy, its impact justified by inadequate scientific research. It continues unabated, but there is hardly any debate.A Seat for the Sea aims to strengthen the affective and cognitive involvement of society at large, by exploring new paths and looking for alternative narratives, by bringing imagination into this technological society and to appeal to the intrinsic value of the ocean and nature.How can we strengthen the voice of the sea? And, dilemma, can we talk in the name of the sea?This discussion will take place at Framer Framed in the Court for Intergenerational Climate Crimes by Radha D&#x27;Souza and Jonas Staal.Participants:Marialena Marouda (GR/DE/BE) works in the intersections between performance, sound art and oral poetry.
