Wovokan Cosmism: Resurrection as Infrastructural Critique” — the Ghost Dance was a speculative design project with the same core protocol as Fedorov’s Common Task (collective ritual → ancestor return → world transformation) except one became SpaceX and one became Wounded Knee

interested in frameworks of indigenous data sovereignty as it may apply to AI and language because mostly I have seen it discussed around biologics and personal/administrative/health data or Traditional Knowledge. Anyway AI kind of makes data-sov everyone’s issue. It’s ya boi

I'm in a BA program for Speculative Design. Thinking senior project next year could be: develop a tribally controlled Dakota language Speech-To-Text tool that respects data sovereignty. There's already work being done on Dakota language apps, but speech recognition has greater risks. It’s ya boi

next week one of the art history/reseach classes I’m taking this term is going to talk about the work of Cannupa Hanska Luger, who’s probably one of the major examples of a native contemporary artist that I would wanna cite, so that’s exciting to me www.cannupahanska.com

Watching Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee, I was under the mistaken impression that this was going to be a documentary but actually it’s a dramatization so the tone shift for me was wild. Maybe I’ll watch Thunderheart next

I guess I’m in art school now and feeling weird about the strategic essentialism of how indigineity is deployed as a counter-identity to western hegemony. This is more of a Bluesky thought than a Twitter thought lmao. It’s ya boi

In the new adaptation of The Running Man, in the dystopian future stratified society they call the underclass “Welf”s which I assume is short for welfare. A pretty good worldbuilding detail

The Lowdown on Hulu by Reservation Dogs creator Sterlin Harjo is amazing, widens the lens on Oklahoma storytelling while still threading that Native perspective into it. Plus we love Kyle McLaughlin, great cast
