  • Anne Pasek | Season 2, Episode 7
    2026/05/12
    In this episode, we sit down with Anne Pasek to explore the environmental politics of AI and digital technology. Anne pushes past the excitement and panic that often shape conversations about artificial intelligence, asking instead what these systems actually are in material terms and what they take to sustain. A key part of the discussion focuses on her framing of AI as “trash,” which helps reorient the conversation toward waste, infrastructure, and the broader ecological consequences of digital systems. Rather than treating AI as something abstract or futuristic, Anne brings it back down to earth and asks what it means to think about these tools more honestly.

    In this episode, we sit down with Katrina Keefer to explore how games and interactive design can create new ways of engaging with history in educational settings. Drawing on her work as a historian and game developer, Katrina reflects on the value of game-based learning while stressing the importance of using these tools with intention. A key part of the conversation centers on her Bunce Island project, which digitally recreates the historically significant site in Sierra Leone and invites learners to engage more directly with the history of the transatlantic slave trade, memory, and displacement. Rather than presenting the past as distant or static, Katrina shows how immersive design can help students encounter difficult histories in a way that feels more immediate and considered.

    In this episode, we sit down with Chris Sarkonak to explore how assessment, grading, and student learning are shaped by systems that do not always reflect what students actually know or can do.

He also highlights the value of student agency and classrooms that support curiosity rather than anxiety, suggesting that stronger assessment practices can better reflect the real learning taking place.
