近年來，國際當代藝術的發展當中，因為「人類世」議題的浮現，許多藝術家、策展人與研究者開始與地球科學研究者或相關的科學實驗室接觸，並將地球科學的知識轉化成創作與論述，甚至將藝術的手法與展示藝術的形式，作為表達的形式，並在各地引起廣泛討論的趨勢。本文在這個背景下，聚焦於當代藝術團隊「引爆火山工程」（Engineering of Volcano Detonating）在2018年提出的「負地理學」（neg-geography）及其知識內涵進行探問。這項概念於2020至2021年在文化部轄下臺灣當代文化實驗場（C-LAB）辦理之「CREATORS創研支持計畫」期間獲得進一步實踐。本計畫圍繞在北臺灣的火山群，試圖探問火山生命與能量，以及地質深處的岩漿與斷層，如何被棲居於「地表」的萬物所感知？甚而能夠發展出以這種不可見的「內裡」為基礎的創作？透過對於火山與科學∕非科學知識的各式調研，勾勒本計畫如何與古文明學者、生態調查者、臺灣飛碟學研究會、大屯火山觀測站的科研人員進行野外工作與觀察，探問各項知識在火山（volcanoes）此一地理場域中的匯合，藉以朝向一種地理藝術（geo-art）的實踐。

This paper discusses the "neg-geography" proposed by the contemporary art team "Engineering of Volcano Detonating". The concept of the project was first proposed in 2018 and materialized in practice through the Creation/Research Support program of 2020 CREATORS. Through various research records and pictorials of volcanoes as well as scientific and non-scientific knowledge that was compiled over the past months, Engineering of Volcano Detonating illustrates how the project was carried out through field studies with scholars of ancient civilizations, ecological investigators, the Taiwan UFOlogy Society, the Taiwan Society for Psychical Research, and researchers at the Tatun Volcano Observatory, converging scientific and non-scientific comprehensions of the geology field of volcanoes, and towards the practice and thinking of geo-art.
