### Dotawo - A Journal of Nubian Studies
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### About
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nubian studies needs a platform in which the old meets the new, in which archaeological, historical, and philological research into Meroitic, Old Nubian, Coptic, Greek, and Arabic sources confront current investigations in modern anthropology and ethnography, Nilo-Saharan linguistics, and critical and theoretical approaches present in postcolonial and African studies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The journal Dotawo: A Journal of Nubian Studies brings these disparate fields together within the same fold, opening a cross-cultural and diachronic field where divergent approaches meet on common soil. Dotawo gives a common home to the past, present, and future of one of the richest areas of research in African studies. It offers a crossroads where papyrus can meet internet, scribes meet critical thinkers, and the promises of growing nations meet the accomplishments of old kingdoms.

### Machine Listening, a curriculum
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### About
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our devices are listening to us. Previous generations of audio-technology transmitted, recorded or manipulated sound. Today our digital voice assistants, smart speakers and a growing range of related technologies are increasingly able to analyse and respond to it as well. Scientists and engineers increasingly refer to this as “machine listening”, though the first widespread use of the term was in computer music. Machine listening is much more than just a new scientific discipline or vein of technical innovation however. It is also an emergent field of knowledge-power, of data extraction and colonialism, of capital accumulation, automation and control. It demands critical and artistic attention.
|
|
|
|
|
|
MACHINE LISTENING is a new investigation and experiment in collective learning, instigated by artist Sean Dockray, legal scholar James Parker, and curator Joel Stern for Liquid Architecture and launched at Unsound 2020: Intermission. It comes out of our previous work on Eavesdropping.

NOTE: They were not interested in printing but also didn't do all of the possible interlinking structure. A lot of links are straight to Gitea repo to markdown file even there's a rendered version on the website. They were also very early adopters so they didn't use all of the features. For example backlinks support showing where some page is `Mentioned in`. Things like that. Still very impressive work on its own.

### Pirate Care - Syllabus
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### About
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pirate Care is a research process - primarily based in the transnational European space - that maps the increasingly present forms of activism at the intersection of “care” and “piracy”, which in new and interesting ways are trying to intervene in one of the most important challenges of our time, that is, the ‘crisis of care’ in all its multiple and interconnected dimensions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
> NOTE: Pirate care's Hugo theme was used as a prototype for Sandpoints but their differences are large if one compares the current Sandpoints and where Pirate Care was left.
