Essays analyze cultural and technological phenomena across diverse geographies, from Indigenous ceremony to AI, digital activism to hip-hop, archives to embodied performance. In doing so, the collection demonstrates how culture is made and remade through mediated repetition, and how communities marked by race, gender, sexuality, and diaspora leverage new media and technology to both endure oppressive structures and imagine alternative futures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbigail De Kosnik\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor in the Berkeley Center for New Media (BCNM) and the Department of Theater, Dance, and Performance Studies (TDPS) and an affiliated faculty member of Gender \u0026amp; Women's Studies, Film \u0026amp; Media, and Folklore at University of California Berkeley, USA. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKeith P.
