Welcome to an intimate forum led by the musical legend and technological savant Nona Hendryx. Together, with a panel of creative minds and futurist spirits including Kate Freer, Mimi Lien, Miles Regis, and more to be announced, we'll explore the threshold spaces between analog craft and digital innovation in contemporary Black artistic practice, revealing how ancestral technique and futuristic methodology can coexist and amplify one another. As immersive technologies, AI tools, and virtual spaces increasingly shape cultural production, these artists model approaches that refuse to abandon the material world while embracing digital fluency. Their practices offer crucial templates for maintaining creative agency, cultural specificity, and aesthetic integrity in an increasingly mediated landscape. We invite you to an exchange that moves between the philosophical and the practical, that interrogates both conceptual frameworks and the nuts-and-bolts of hybrid studio practice. We welcome you to Convergence.
