    The third installment in Valiz's Slow Reader series explores myriad perspectives on technological futures

    Published with Slow Research Lab.

    Following Slow Reader: A Resource for Design Thinking and Practice and Slow Spatial Reader: Chronicles of Radical Affection, Slow Technology Reader gathers contributions from diverse disciplinary fields and knowledge traditions to consider technology through a "Slow" lens. It is at once artistic, academic and speculative, probing alternative potentials of the digital entities proliferating in our midst, examining tools and techniques that have endured the test of time, and looking to non-Western and more-than-human sources to inspire technological futures. This third volume aims to enlarge the parameters of how technology is understood, offering examples and inspiration beyond the limited perspectives and legacy structures that dominate technological development today. It includes the insights of feminist, queer, Indigenous, activist and ecological practices, exploring how these can set new starting points for our technologies and their possibilities.
    Contributors include: Paula Albuquerque, Kader Attia, Cláudio Bueno, Derrais Carter, Raven Chacon, Laura Coombs, Edwidge Danticat, Silvia Federici, Jem Finer, Candice Hopkins, Suzanne Kite, Jaron Lanier, Jason Edward Lewis, Mindy Seu.
