Join us for a lecture-conversation-workshop with choreographer Andros Zins-Browne.  about Black geologies and dance, where non- and more-than-human narratives offer groundworks for horizontal, anti-extractionist, and animistic movements. The lecture part of this event introduces theoretical frameworks inspired by N.K. Jemisin, Kathryn Yusoff, Zoé Samudzi and works by artists such as Cauleen Smith and Noland Oswald-Dennis, that invite us to imagine how these world-making techniques can be applied in practice.Â
The lecture will be followed by an in-person workshop on parafictional world-making, embodiment, and storytelling on April 21st in which registration will be capped.Â
Presented by the Zolberg Institute on Migration and Mobility at New School for Social Research and The New School.
