Indexing and Prototyping Trans* Crip Tech

What have you hacked to make it work for you and your community? Propositions of linear time? Assumptions about the correct amount of rest? Heteronormative assumptions on what constitutes kinship or family? A death of imagination around how to share resources? This is a re-occuring workshop and growing index that tangles with the trouble of what it is to take up space in technology and hack things to work for us - and make things by - us.

Moving as an ongoing rehearsal of trans*crip technoscientific technologies that take up space in what is called “technology”. This work moves with an expansive definition of technology that holds space for practices of community organizing, resource finding, and sharing, and techno-vernacular creativity ie. hacking stuff for our specific needs. Over time technologists, artists & friends joining the index & prototying lab have upheld technologies that already exist — as technologies — making our lives plural, joyful, sustainable and full of connection and possibility.
