Really what my work is concerned about is the body and technology. They’re often thought of as very different things. Technology is thought of in these sort of rigid forms and devices, and the body is like this organic other type deal. So, I’m really about exploring the tension between those things.

One of the most beautiful things for me about open source is that you don’t need permission. This is such an underestimated aspect of open source, which is that because there is no price, because there is no license, because there is no “contact us” button to get a trial… You just get the code, you don’t ask permission from anybody. You just get going. And I find that extremely powerful.

It turns out whenever humans make a metric that tries to prove their superiority—oh, we have language, or we do agriculture, we do tool-making—we usually end up just finding other living creatures actually really already do this also. Honeybees waggle dancing. Leafcutter ants doing agriculture. Chimps using sticks as tools.

This library is a movement that celebrates our history, our culture, and that serves our community to learn and grow as society evolves. And it holds us accountable in the ways we deal with Black people—our movements, our bodies, and our lives.

I make dolls but then another discipline that I’m interested in is programming and coding. And since I work in multiples a lot, something I think about is the difference in creating something physically versus digitally.

At the core of who I am as far as my practice I’ve always identified as an artist and have found that design and creative technology are really great vehicles for me to use to continue expanding the possibilities of art.

I created this concept called beauty technology. This was actually my PhD project. I was using cosmetics or beauty products and embedding circuits into them. So our skin, this two meters square of skin that we have, it could be an interactive platform.

I look into making. And that’s traditional making practices, digital practices, and their intersections with society. So understanding what that relationship is, can be, or might be, and how they influence each other. So how making practices in society can influence the technologies that we develop, right. So I make tools, processes, technologies, etc., and really question culture, society, and design through them.

For me, having the freedom to explore and tinker and wander to advance the plot has felt really key. And I want to acknowledge that having the capacity to allow such uncertainty and anarchism into one’s life is not a privilege that everyone has.

I guess I’m really an energy artist. So I’m just super interested in the flow of energy through all things. I find that when you look at it in terms of energy, and you think about perfume and the experience of perfume and how you construct it as energy, as frequency. Same as the frequency of the color fields in a painting. Same as the energy and the frequencies that happen in a sound circuit. Ultimately it’s all about the energy and the vibration, and I think that’s really the crux of where I focus my creativity.
