a collaborative project by Peter Bonde & Jason Rhoades
This year, for the first time in the history of the Venice Biennale, representatives from two different countries will collaborate to create a common cultural and artistic space: the American artist Jason Rhoades and the Danish artist Peter Bonde will show a joint project, Snowball, at the Danish Pavilion. In this multi-media installation, the artists will transform the pavilion into a stock car course with American stock cars, sound effects, and film projections. This catalogue documents their historic collaboration.

The continuity of life evolution over 3.5 billion years has been attributed to Earth's ability to maintain a habitable climate. However, the Neoproterozoic era was interrupted by multiple Snowball Earth episodes when the silicate weathering thermostat broke down and global-scale glaciations ensued. It remains a major challenge to explain how life has survived these severe glaciations, which depends critically on the surface temperature. The work presented in this thesis contains a series of modeling endeavors dedicated to advancing our understanding of the temperature history during the Snowball Earth events. With an energy balance model, we demonstrate that the critical phase for life is the early stage of Snowball, when surface temperature has plunged after the initiation. Using the FOAM GCM specially modified for the Snowball climate, we investigate the peculiar hydrological cycle of a Snowball state. With an idealized ice shell model, we study how the global-scale ice flow may act as a dust conveyor belt and escalate dust accumulation in the tropical ablation zone. We then explore the stability of the dusty Snowball state in a coupled atmosphere-ice-dust model. We propose a dust thermostat mechanism based on the coupled model simulations of the dusty ice scenario, which suggests that the Snowball Earth might have been much warmer than previously thought.

In Annie and Snowball and the Cozy Nest, Annie and Snowball have new neighbors—but they haven’t hatched yet. Annie and Snowball can’t wait to see the baby birds that live in the cozy nest on Annie’s porch. And Henry and his big dog Mudge want to greet the babies, too. It’s not easy to be patient!

"Welcome to the Puppy Place--where every puppy finds a home! Charles and Lizzie Peterson are very good with puppies. They want one of their own, but their mom isn't ready for them to have one full time. For now, they help take care of puppies that need to find a new home. They are a foster family for young dogs. The Peterson kids hear about Snowball. Someone left the fluffy puppy all alone at a gas station in a tattered, old box. Snowball is sick and hungry. He needs a family of his own. Can Charles and Lizzy find one that is just right?"
