How can faculty, students, and community members engage in digital knowledge production as critical users and as meaningful producers? Decolonizing Representations is a set of FREE workshops designed for those folks who want to learn to do both, using digital tools to examine and re-imagine representations of Black, Latinx, Indigenous, & Asian groups, and people with disabilities at UF.

This second workshop, “Designing the Future,” focuses on linkages between technology and storytelling. Participants will contribute their own stories and visions for the future, integrating art & technology to design a next generation campus.

Amanda Concha-Holmes will guide the workshop. Dr. Concha-Holmes has researched, published, crafted documentaries, and given workshops on decolonizing representations of marginalized peoples specifically combining technology and art for over a decade.

This event is sponsored by the Center for the Humanities and the Public Sphere (Rothman Endowment), Center for the Study of Race and Race Relations, Department of English, Digital Worlds, George A. Smathers Libraries, Office of Chief Diversity Officer, Office of the Provost,
Samuel Proctor Oral History Program, and the UF Creative Catalyst Initiative.

These events are open to UF faculty, staff, enrolled students, and community partners.
