Indigenous Pop X

Imagination to Action

Indigenous Futurisms Days & Indigenous Comic Con

Albuquerque, NM/USA

March 25- 29, 2020

https://www.indigipopx.com/

 

The theme this year is Imagination to Action.  How do we take the ideas and
perspectives that come from science fiction, fantasy, and futurisms and
develop them into sustainable solutions for Indigenous communities around
the world?  How do we build upon tradition in a way that brings the present
and future to bear?  What are the advancements in technology that align with
creativity and cultural values? And how can our thinkers, leaders and
entrepreneurs draw from the fantastic worlds and creations to envision
positive community change?

 

All these questions and more are what we are looking to address with this
year's Indigenous Pop X.  Our submission period is open to bring in multiple
visions, ideas, thoughts, and experiences that can help us build a world of
wonder for Native and Indigenous communities. We are specifically looking
for workshops (engaging audiences in action, i.e. creating things, working
with attendees on developing ideas that they can walk away with),
presentations (presenting on bold ideas and ways to spork conversation) and
panels (a group of thinkers bringing ideas forward on a specific topic).

 

We ask that each presentation proposal be thoughtful and thought-provoking.
Proposals will be evaluated on how clearly they align with the theme for the
year and  what "wow-factor" the proposal brings to help us create our world
of wonder.

 

There are two opportunities to present.  You can choose either the
Indigenous Futurisms Days (March 25 & 26) or the Indigenous Comic Con (March
27 - 29).  You do not need to be present for the entire expo but we highly
encourage presenters to make arrangements to be a part of either (or both)
sections.  We will accept multiple submissions (each submission must be
unique) and encourage teams and panels that can be organized around a
central theme or idea.

 

The Futurisms Days will focus on Indigenous Futurisms (as defined and
illustrated by Grace Dillon) and how future imaginings can lead to action.
We have a specific sub-focus on Indigenous Entrepreneurship and how
individuals and communities and synthesize technology and tradition, culture
and creativity.
