"Future Ancestral Technologies"

There's a tendency to perpetuate this romantic, historical narrative of Native people, which is, "This is primitive, this is ancient, this is not present."

And so I started a whole series of projects that were called -- and it's kind of an ongoing set of ideas -- but it's called Future Ancestral Technology.

It's science fiction, it's speculative fiction.

It's imagining what and how our culture shifts and changes into the future.
