SYLVIA WYNTER’s dream
this is a new foundation
a curiosity-fueled lab for Caribbean and Afro-diasporic futurism & digital storytelling
Launched by Isis Semaj-Hall, PhD. Kingston, Jamaica
“There is no order in the world that can exist or hold together, including an empire, without a founding story. Now the question for academia in the twenty-first century is, will you make space within it to be able to write a new foundation?”

About this work.
Single ideas becoming a group mission. Letters blooming into words. Pixels forming into images. This is where we begin to connect the dots that will enhance our potential.
We begin with a team of University of the West Indies, Mona thinkers ready to write Jamaica and build the humanities using digitial tools.
We question what it means to be human and we honor Sylvia Wynter with this work.
