Author Information

Henriette Gunkel (PhD) is lecturer at the Department of Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths, University of London. Her work focusses on the politics of time from a decolonizing, queer-feminist perspective. She is working on a monograph on Alien Time that focusses on Africanist science-fictional interventions. She is the author of The Cultural Politics of Female Sexuality in South Africa (Routledge, 2010) and co-editor of What Can a Body Do? (Campus, 2012), Undutiful Daughters. New Directions in Feminist Thought and Practice (Palgrave McMillan, 2012), and Futures & Fictions (Repeater, 2017), which was nominated for the 2018 International Center of Photography's Infinity Award in the Critical Writing and Research category. kara lynch (MFA) is a time-based artist living in the Bronx, NY who earns a living as an Associate Professor of Video and Critical Studies at Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts. Ambivalent towards hyper-visual culture, she is curious about duration, embodiment, and aural experience; and through low-fi, collective practice and social intervention lynch explores aesthetic/political relationships between time + space. Her work is vigilantly raced, classed, and gendered - Black, queer and feminist. Major projects include: `Black Russians' - a feature documentary video (2001), `The Outing' - a video travelogue (1999-2004), `Mouhawala Oula' - a gender-bending trio performance for oriental dance, live video, and saxophone (2009). The current project 'INVISIBLE', an episodic, speculative, multi-site video/audio installation - excavates the terror and resilient beauty of Black experience.
