This course proposes a different approach: AI as a cultural, linguistic and aesthetic infrastructure. Through theory, demonstrations and hands-on experimentation, participants will learn how to work critically and creatively with generative systems, understanding not only what they produce, but how they organize language, images, knowledge and imagination. The course is designed for artists, researchers, writers, designers, educators, cultural workers and students who want to use AI systems with greater awareness, precision and creative autonomy. No advanced technical background is required. The program combines historical and theoretical framing with practical exercises in text generation, image and video prompting, creative workflow design, academic writing, fact-checking and basic automation. Across eight online sessions, participants will explore the genealogy of prompting, the operational nature of language in AI systems, embedding spaces, prompt design strategies, text-to-image and text-to-video workflows, API-based experimentation, AI-assisted research practices, and the ethical, ecological and political implications of generative technologies. The workshop will be led by Angela Fusillo (@angela.fusillo_), a digital artist and researcher specialising in artificial intelligence and its social implications.

How do we navigate this postnatural condition responsibly? This seminar will establish a critical analysis and approach to the separation of nature and culture, one which has its roots in Western philosophy, where the natural world has often been viewed as a passive backdrop to human activity, a mere resource to be exploited. This anthropocentric worldview has led to a hierarchical relationship, one in which matter has been conditioned by the vertical understandings that categories and taxonomies that Western science has imposed on them. Living and non-living, sentient and nonsentient, productive, beautiful, matter has also been captured within its moral, aesthetic and political systems. However, this perspective fails to acknowledge the intricate interconnections and interdependencies that bind all forms of life and matter.

take.back.theinternet on September 6, 2024: "As the first self-directed assignment for the Social Practice track of my grassroots MFA, I will be facilitating a 5-week open studio series from September 21st to October 19th. 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.".
