Helen Pritchard (Lecture)

They/them & She/her
Sunday 14 May — De Brakke Grond

Helen V. Pritchard is an artist-designer, geographer, activist and queer love theorist. Their work addresses how computation and environmental practices configure the possibilities for life—or who gets to have a life—in intimate and significant ways. As a practitioner they work together with companions on trans*feminist approaches to make propositions for environmental media and computing otherwise, developing methods to uphold a politics of queer survival and practice.

They collaborate with The Institute for Technology in the Public Interest (TITiPi) and Regenerative Energy Communities. Helen is Professor and Head of Research at IXDM, HGK-Basel, FHNW University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland, where they contribute to Critical Media Lab and Hyperwerk and teaches on the MA Experimental Design.

Helen V. Pritchard is part of the symposium programme, happening on Saturday 13 May and Sunday 14 May at de Brakke Grond. The exact date and time of this lecture will be announced soon.
