BQF
BQF’s projects weave quantum physics, Afrofuturism, and Afrodiasporic concepts of time, ritual, text, and sound, creating counter-histories and Black quantum womanist futures that challenge exclusionary, mainstream versions of history and the future. Black Quantum Futurism has created a number of community-based projects, performances, experimental music projects, installations, workshops, books, short films and zines, including the award-winning Community Futures Lab and the Black Woman Temporal Portal.
