Tech as Art: Commissioned Essays from Arts Practitioners

Jul 27, 2021

Got to do so in such inspiring company with ten other essay writers - read their's here:

arts.gov

I was commissioned by the

@NEAarts

to contribute an essay on building Afrocentric technoculture and community as part of their #TechAsArt: Supporting Artists Who Use Technology as a Creative Medium. Here's the piece I wrote:

arts.gov

“Artist Perspective: Building Afrocentric Technoculture and Community”

Loved hearing

speak at #imaginfra quoting "Art would not exist if we understood each other" – thinking a lot about how we communicate and listen to each other's problems and dreams, and imagine solutions and mechanisms to create new realities

This was such an excellent session with
