programming, writing and imaginng the world, are play based models intergrating, connectivity across place and space. the computer, the land , the animal body, the other, are all components in a lerge system based object,
a synthesis. \
listening to traces, held in the atmosphere.
As ways of reading, voicing and sharing are retold, guided by the act of decolonisation, we look to the internationality of stories themselves, of interactivity between our archival bodies, emotional networks, integration with the land, sea and sky. These sources have been selcted and complied together, matters mulching, twining together.
the hallucinatory tracts, that dream more than the language of empire,
or the subjects of civilsation. fastforwarding whilst simautaneiously rewinding together, at the same time.
madness, are settler colonial narratives, ways of drawing up and holding people captive, these procedures divorce the knowledge stored in the earth,
although madness, is relocated through the violence of poverty, dispossesion, working+living conditions for the poor, internationally.

"Ableism, via Western biomedical diagnosis, has been a potent weapon disconnecting Indigenous and disabled peoples from their places. It has aided in the theft of Indigenous lands and the confinement of Indigenous and disabled people. Indigenous-disability studies spells out the inextricable links between medical treatment, confining institutions, and stolen lands. As Juliann Anesi's account of psychiatric institutions and jails in postcolonial Sāmoa reveals, the complex mechanisms through which place and care come to define each other can carry life and death consequences." 15 <Juliann Anesi, "Enduring the Storm: Mental Disability in Oceania and the Story of Hans Dalton," Disability Studies Quarterly 41, no. 4 (Fall 2021) https://doi.org/10.18061/dsq.v41i4.8457.

My Story
praise, as a gift.
the gift, is a conundrum across time. detailing the. constrictions of theft, of ownership,
a gift alludes to generosity,
to participatory or collaborative interactions.
a gift is made, in theft/ in colonisation/ extraction/ schemes for legitiamcy,
praise is a presence of selfhood --
in song - the praise is song, a humming, spectral - shared,
a unifomrity of voice, of langugae.
