TUNING INTO THE QUANTUM: A VIBRATIONAL EXCHANGE BETWEEN KAREN BARAD AND BLACK QUANTUM FUTURISM

22 NOVEMBER 2023, 7:00PM, GRAY AREA, SAN FRANCISCO
Interdisciplinary theorist Prof. Karen Barad was joined by visionary artists, Rasheedah Phillips and Camae Ayewa of Black Quantum Futurism, for an evening of conversation and sound exploring material quantum temporalities.
Through the lens of their practice and in celebration of shared points of convergence, Rasheedah and Karen reclaimed the radical potential contained within quantum physics. In doing so they troubled the dominant narratives and violence shaping the present, from the next iteration of quantum technologies to Black experience and life more broadly. Accompanied by sound created by Camae, Karen and Rasheedah highlighted the im/possibility for erasure and how the past and future can be redeemed within the present.
