Future Museum Report: Some notes on our time-travel expeditions, 2028-2098
Type: report
Format: PDF file
Summary: Q: Why are Pinky & friends so interested in the future of
museums that they'd be willing to risk their lives to time-travel? A: Two reasons! Because... 1) Museums are veeery important for reproducing the dominant
values and narratives of its host society; AND 2) Among the
institutions that shape our understanding of
past, present, & future, museums enjoy the least critical examination from the
general public. That's why!

Re: Structure, Power, and Agency
Format: video with audio
Running time: approx. 26 min 37 sec
Summary:
Pinky's insomnia has recently been centered around questions of class
treason: What happens when we do so many things in our lives
'automatically'? What can we really do to make this world better? And
what will we have to give up or risk in order to achieve it? (This video

On Native Land : Pinky & Bunny pull 360 pounds of uranium tailings through Petrified Forest National Park
Type: digital image
Summary: From our On Native Land
series. Anyone caught removing even a small piece of fossilized wood
from Petrified Forest National Park will get fined $325. But Pinky &
Bunny aren't stealing souvenirs, they're just spreading deadly
radioactive contamination (okay, that's not real uranium), which must
not be a big deal because the U.S. Government and corporations have been
doing that in Navajo country for decades and no one's punishing them.

Type: digital image

On Native Land : stupid tourists i wish you would all get out of here
Type: digital image
Summary: From our On Native Land series. Are sacred sites still
sacred after being transformed into a U.S. "National Park"? Can a
settler state legitimately claim ownership of Native peoples' ancestral
lands in the shadow of genocide? Well perhaps these are interesting
questions but right now Bunny just knows her visit to Mesa Verde is
being ruined because there's just too many tourists all over the place.

On Native Land : I'M ON UR LAND / MAPPIN UR DEMIZE
Type: digital image
Summary: Among other things, maps are important tools of conquest. They
also often record inconvenient evidence that counter misleading settler
narratives - for example: "The land was vacant; there was no genocide."
