Aesthetic Indigenous Forms: Generative AI Imagery Dataset

Description

The past, present, and future of our city communities in the United States exist within colonization's ongoing violence - a perpetual state of lived aftermath to stolen lands, white supremacy, genocide, slavery, and anthropogenic climate change. Our land and water relations remember how we treat them with sewage, chemicals, and trash, and they influence the artistic expressions and world's of Black Philadelphia writers, philosophers, artists. The Aesthetic Indigenous Forms Dataset includes 29 generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) images, historical research, and curatorial prose that complicates the stories of climate racism, Indigeneity, and climate change that Philadelphia's public art and environmental histories tell. This data is integrated within the Post Colonial Dreams Museum, one of two distinct, yet interconnected virtual museums in Relational Possibilities: A Remix of Aesthetic Forms Through Indigeneity and Blackness
