"The notion of promiscuity helps to emphasise creativity’s collaborative relationality and move beyond its anthropocentric underpinnings." 📍
Highly recommend making time to read "A plea for promiscuous creativity".
It has great ideas to think with, it cites Glissant (among others), and it's FREE to read #OpenAccess #Blackademics #ArtSky #Lit
