Engaging notions of transparency and opacity in the contexts of both race and technology, this zine presents a new way of thinking about the promises and pitfalls of artmaking for digital and social change. The work asks whether it is possible to adhere to a model that, instead of falling prey to the cat-and-mouse dynamic of Big Tech and its extractive systems, takes advantage of duration, time, and conformity to its own advantages.
