Mighty Real is an eight-episode podcast that explores the history and influence of queer technology, as well as the myriad of ways queer artists collaborate with emerging technologies pre- and post-internet. On Friday, October 27th podcast host, Jamison Edgar will moderate a live talkback with Los Angeles-based contributors at Honor Fraser Gallery. The hour-long discussion will introduce the podcast’s guiding themes, and examine how art, science, and technology shape queer history.

Released weekly during the month of October, each episode will explore a central topic and feature a patchwork of historical wormholes (in-depth examinations of touchstones in the history of queer technology), artist interviews, and round table discussions. Together the eight episodes assert that queer knowledge not only informs the affordances of the technologies we know and use today but has itself become a form of technology that queer people wield to build solidarity and resist socio-political suppression online and AFK (away from keyboard).

Episodes are released on Fridays and can be found at https://queertechpodcast.buzzsprout.com/

This first live event will feature Edgar Fabián Frías, Olivia Pease, Sammie Veeler, and Jamison Edgar.
