Description
Much of the current discussion on reclaiming and reconciliation practices that fall under the broad banner of “de-collonising” looks to technology as a solution. Especially, but not exclusively, with the peaked fascination with AI. And yet, these quick tech fixes and automations often end up blurring the gap and discrepancies of the postcolonial era, if not exacerbating them due to preexisting cultural biases embedded in codes and databases. The video films within the collection include: Going Inwards by M. Sheikh, Homeland by J. Prince and The Great Balancing Act by R. Saad.
