Black Quantum Futurism – “Time Travel Experiments” (2017)
Programme:
Date: Friday, 5. September, 13:00-14:30
Venue: ifk arkaden
Free Entry!
Do-it-yourself time travel experiments from an embedded time travel manual in the speculative fiction book Recurrence Plot (and Other Time Travel Tales), written and published by Rasheedah Phillips. Depicted time travel experiments employ the concept of Black Grandmother Paradoxes, which emphasize matrilineal or matri-curvature timelines that are feminine and communally-generated, where the future emerges into the past by way of omens, prophecies, and symbols, while the past is a space of open possibility, speculation, and active revision by multiple generations of people situated in the relative future.
Directed and written by BQF, (shot and edited by Bob Sweeney)
