INTERVIEWS
In December 2022, LUMA Arles hosted the second edition of the Realities of Science Fiction symposium. This programme of talks and performances was focused on a multiplicity of narratives such as Afrofuturism, Indigenous forms of knowledge, and science fiction as a mode of resistance.
For this event, we interviewed: Adam Haar Horowitz, Jean-Pierre Bekolo and Pascale Obolo, Josefa Njtam, Kara Keeling, Peter Watts, Sabrina Calvo and Nitendra Singh.
The conferences hosted during the event are available here.
