I can't say enough about how excited I am to hear this talk— and to emerge ready to drop the word 'sferics' in regular conversation! But really, how often do you get to listen to the atmosphere and its objects, its electricity, its lightning...
It’s the final Digital Dialogue of the Spring 2024 season!
Join us 5/7 at 5:15pm for "Sensing Sferics: Electromagnetic Noise and Environmental Signal," a lecture featuring @jeffreymoro, Assistant Clinical Professor @umd_AADHum.

YIKES! Correction.

Oops but, also, is it even my fault that April has been like two months long? 🤷🏽♀️

In this talk, Dr. Alexander begins by identifying a disconnect between role playing games like D&D, and Black communities, but also the real potential for such gaming structures to enable different acts of maiming, healing, and resistance.
Livestream today!
So looking forward to (AADHum’s own!) Liz Alexander’s #BlackDH Digital Dialogue @UMD_MITH. Dr. Alexander will be debuting WILDWOOD, a digital game that envisions eco- & technocultures on Chicago’s Southside, writing “future visions of Black communities”
