OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Transhistorical Feedback Loops:
Dr Nina Trivedi will present her research in progress which seeks to further define transhistorical feedback loops. This particular type of loop considers memory, traditions, and ways to shape futures from different positionalities. She will begin with a look back at speculations of digital loops leading to a new temporality and consider ways that the transhistorical feedback loop can be analysed alongside the work of: Senga Nengudi, Moor Mother, Larry Achiampong, and Ruha Benjamin.
Dr Nina Trivedi is a writer, theorist and Lecturer in Design: Race & Intercultural Studies at Central St Martins. Nina was resident in critical practice at Royal Academy Schools in 2022-23 and in 2021-2022 worked on an archives residency with the Decolonising Arts Institute, UAL. Nina completed a PhD at the Royal College of Art in Critical & Historical studies. Upcoming publications include: Robotic Vision & Virtual Interfacings: Seeing, Sensing, Shaping with Edinburgh University Press and a collection of essays on Design & Race, with collaborators from CSM.
