The sessions will be a mix of hybrid lecture, workshop & citational freestyle where I’ll be walking through the foundations of my ongoing (grassroots thesis) research practice around the theme of Indigenous Technologies. The series will be taking place on Zoom, from 12PM - 1PM PST (3PM-4PM EST). Registration link (+ manifesto piece!) in bio ~ ⚜️ Divination and Computer Science - Sept 21st Using Olu Longe’s 1983 Lecture at the University of Ibadan: “Ifa Divination and Computer Science” as a departure point, this session maps out my investigations on how indigenous rituals have informed the development of algorithmic culture.  ⚜️ Monsoon Winds & Oceanic Memory - Sept 28th In her 2017 video essay Deep Down Tidal, artist Tabita Rezaire outlined how modern internet infrastructure has been shaped by colonial shipping routes, which were in turn sculpted by monsoon wind currents. Building atop that thread, this session constellates the various artists, projects and initiatives who anchor my deep dives into techno-oceanic wisdom. ⚜️ Radical Love as Technology - Oct 5th This session is an overview of my explorations around how radical love emerges as technology — a purposeful, solution-oriented application of care — and invites participants to theorize what love-technologies could pave the way for a sustainable, mutually-assistive future.  ⚜️ Afropresentism: Embodied Ritual & Ancestral Cartography Pt. 1 - Oct 12th How can we understand memory work as an exercise in mapping through, within, and beyond time? This session introduces “ancestral cartography” as an Afropresentist methodology and framework for embodied practice within the Age of Big Data. • Video clip via @listening2images - ‘Specialized Technique’ (2018) by Onyeka Igwe ⚜️ Afropresentism: Embodied Ritual & Ancestral Cartography Pt. 2 - Oct 19th The final installation in the Indigenous Technologies Incubator is a participatory workshop that invites attendees to develop a manifesto for their own ancestral cartography practice.".
