Dreaming into Systems: Lakota Semiotics and AI – Suzanne Kite

Centered on dreaming as a method of knowledge production, Suzanne Kite’s work develops symbolic systems drawn from Lakota cosmology and long-term dream research, translating them into visual, performative, and computational forms. Kite will discuss this process through a semiotic lens, focusing on how meaning moves from dream worlds into material, digital, and generative systems. Across sculpture, video, and performance, the presentation examines AI as a medium through which Indigenous symbolic knowledge is carried, transformed, and taught within contemporary art and research contexts.
