Details: In this presentation, Ari Melenciano will share a survey of her recent works that use imagination in critical forms. Each reveals vibrant opportunities to imagine the worlds within and around us with depth and expanding possibility, ranging from explorations of the collective subconscious with AI, collecting ancestral memories through sound and dance, or through archiving future worlds through celestial botany. Ari Melenciano is the founder of Afrotectopia, a social institution that imagines new possibilities at the nexus of art, design, technology, and culture.
