On April 9th, Machine Agencies of Speculative Life Cluster is hosting a 4-hour hands-on workshop on The Hologram, a viral distribution system for non-expert healthcare, led by Cassie Thornton.
WHAT IS THE HOLOGRAM?
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
This workshop introduces “incomers” to The Hologram practice with an introduction to its history and underlying principles, along with a chance to actively engage in its methods. Originating from moments of crisis and designed for navigating them, The Hologram combines personal reflection, collective action, and anti-capitalist strategies. The workshop consists of one-third presentation and two-thirds interactive participation led by two facilitators, supplemented by experienced practitioners as necessary. Participants can expect support, stimulating challenges, and an invitation to join the broader global community of Hologram practitioners!
ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Cassie Thornton (b. 1981 US) is an artist and activist who makes a “safe space” for the unknown, for disobedience, and for unanticipated collectivity. She uses social practices including institutional critique, insurgent architecture, and “healing modalities” like hypnosis and yoga to find soft spots in the hard surfaces of capitalist life. She is currently the co-director of the Re-Imagining Value Action Lab in Thunder Bay, an art and social centre at Lakehead University in Ontario, Canada.
