In this episode, host Peter Bauman (Monk Antony, Le Random’s editor in chief) speaks with transdisciplinary artist Stephanie Dinkins (lerandom.art/subjects/stephanie-dinkins) about AI as a container for preserving oral history, tradition, and the kinds of community knowledge that rarely make it onto the internet.
Dinkins shares how a chance encounter with Bina48 in 2014 reshaped her practice. They discuss how this connects to her push for small, community-driven data that protects nuance and self-definition, especially for Black and Brown communities, against the homogenizing pull of large corporate models.
They also cover Not the Only One as a “living archive” of family memory, the politics of access, privacy, and consent, and why Dinkins treats imagination (and hyperstition) as a practical method for building the AI futures we actually want.
