- Critical Media Practices
Edem Dotse is an artist and practice-based scholar interested in the intersections between spirituality, cultural memory and mediated representation in contemporary society. Through an ever evolving set of approaches involving video and sound, his work attempts to interrogate and recontextualize African modes of thought and existence within an increasingly globalized media landscape. With a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and an MFA in Film & Media Production from the University of Texas in Austin, he now seeks to bridge the worlds of art and technology to educate and empower young minds to tell the stories of their communities in his PhD in Emergent Technologies and Media Art Practices at the University of Colorado in Boulder.
His work has been presented at the British Film Institute in London, the OGU Mag Gallery in Tokyo, the Film Lincoln Center in New York, the OTHNI Laboratoire De Théâtre in Yaoundé, the New Orleans Film Festival and the Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival in Glasgow.
