Luis Othoniel Rosa (Spanish/Modern Languages and Literatures) will explore how poetic language disrupts the logic of technological determinism and opens pathways to alternative futures beyond ecological, economic, and political catastrophe. Drawing from ancient and contemporary poetic voices, the talk argues that poetry confuses systems of power—algorithmic, colonial, and capitalist—to reimagine and reconfigure the technologies shaping our lives.
