I will present some effective strategies for creative technology education that have been developed in collaboration with resource-constrained communities as part of the 2024 Society for Experiential Education Conference.
Casey Anderson (they / them) is designing and repurposing technologies to activate participatory practice, primarily involving explorations of sound, in diverse cultures and communities. Performances, exhibitions, and residencies include MOCA - Los Angeles (CA), ISSUE Project Room (NY), STEIM (NL), Atlantic Center for the Arts (FL), Mass MOCA (MA), The Walker Art Center (MN), and The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA (CA). They co-founded, and co-edited (with John P. Hastings and Scott Cazan), the Experimental Music Yearbook, and own and operate a wave. They currently live in Los Angeles, California, co-run Trade School with Arden Stern, and teach at KAOS Network and ArtCenter College of Design.
Elizabeth Chin is an anthropologist and ethnographer with a varied practice that includes performative scholarship, collaborative research, vernacular electronics, and experimental writing. Her work interrogates race and racism with fieldwork in the US and in Haiti. Currently she is Editor in Chief of American Anthropologist.
KAOS Network, led by Ben Caldwell, is an artistic oasis in Leimert Park, cultivating shared experiences in BlackDesign, music, and technology. We empower South LA through trans-media arts and a city-supported zero-emissions initiative to enhance community health and mobility.
KAOS Kids empowers Los Angeles through A-STEAM workshops, where Arts redefine access to science, tech, engineering, and math for ages 9 months to 99 years. Our open-source model fosters business growth and networking, aligning with Sankofa principles—looking seven generations forward and back. United in creativity-driven pathways, families and individuals cultivate innovation, become educators linked by KAOS Network’s 40-year legacy, and engage in monthly art walks to showcase and profit from their designs, nurturing future innovators.
