If you receive an email from DOGE cancelling your NEH award, 17461322
José M. Palacios @josempalacios.bsky.social · 04/04/2025Earlier today, lively round table to talk about methods, digital labor, supply chains, projectionists, transnationalisms, inter-Asia exchanges, nighttime, and more. Kudos to chairs Kartik Nair, Chenshu Zhou + an all-star panel #scms25 020
