Ev Delafose writes long, dense gallery notes on contemporary art exhibitions, with a focus on painting, queer subjectivity and Black critical theory. Readers get theory-heavy close readings of specific shows, framed by philosophical concepts rather than news or listings.
A scholar's newsletter on Afrofuturism, pedagogy, cultural memory and creative inquiry as liberatory practice, with reflections on her workshops, talks and campus programming. Readers get personal, theory-informed essays drawing on the Dikenga cosmogram, Black music and speculative literature.
A process blog and workshop project on archival study and memory-keeping from a Black diasporic, Black feminist perspective, mixing personal essay, family archive images, and reading lists. Readers get reflective writing on place, ancestry, and treating archives as relational rather than purely technical systems.
Essays from a critical technologist who reads technology and culture through Black Studies and conceptual art, including book criticism and interviews. Readers get reflective, theory-informed commentary on digital culture, taste, and technology addiction.
