Still thinking about kinetic sculpture installation (has sound and video to) by Nicholas Galanin (Tlíngft and Unangax) and about automation as a tool for erasure. It has a robotic arm slowly beating a large wooden box drum (a kóok gaaw in Tlíngft). Aáni yéi xat duwasáakw (I am called Land)

Got to experience amazing kinetic sculpture by Nicholas Galanin, an Tlingft and Unangax artist based in Alaska.
@nicholasgalanin.bsky.social
A robotic arm beats a Tlingít drum while film, immersive aquatic soundscape & ample plush seating surrounding the sculpture give sense of being in womb.
