Accessibility Update:
Please note that this workshop will be held in the upstairs Gray Area classroom, which is not ADA accessible. We apologize for any inconvenience and encourage those impacted to contact us for assistance. Thank you for your understanding.

 

This workshop will introduce participants to DevOps as a diasporic tool for mysticism. Through considering the web as both an ethereal and tangible realm, participants will select a 3D object of personal history or significance to deploy at any data center located in major global cities. Similar to the Filipino practice of creating anting-antings, these selected objects will serve as conduits for prosperity and protection in another realm.

This workshop is part of the  Gray Area Festival 2024.

Marking Gray Area Festival’s 10th anniversary, Gray Area 10 continues our annual survey of culture through the lens of creative practice, featuring a conference, performances, and workshops.
