Dzata: The Institute of Technological Consciousness is an artistic research project by South African artists Russel Hlongwane, Francois Knoetze and Amy Wilson. In fabricating a fictional institute and its archive, the artists imagine centuries-old vernacular technological practices from across the African continent. The work takes the form of video, a creative-critical text, sculptural masks, costumes and devices, and a youth workshop series.
There is a richer and more diverse technological history than the dominant narrative of invention, development and progress. The artists situate their enquiry at the point at which the social, the cultural, the spiritual, the political intersect.

Our Hands are the hardworking "Ants" that move us closer to Enlightenment. Enjoy Life - Be all you can "Bee!!!"
It may be said that, so far from having a materialistic tendency, the supposed introduction into the earth at successive geological periods of life—
sensation, instinct, the intelligence of the higher mammalia bordering on reason, and lastly, the improvable reason of Man himself
—presents us with a picture of the ever-increasing dominion of mind over matter.
— >* Sir Charles Lyell, 1863

The mind speaks. Consciousness is beyond sound and silence. You cannot hear my voice. But you can enjoy my Silence. In the mind, you express thoughts. Consciousness is only Silence, it has no expression. What differentiates an Advaita teacher from a Master is that the latter never speaks, while the former speaks a lot. With a teacher, you learn because he or she has what to teach. With a Master, you unlearn, as he or she only does one thing: to destroy your knowledge, because it has no purpose! Marcos Gualberto ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Com um Mestre você desaprende!" ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A Consciência não fala; Ela está em silêncio! A mente fala. A Consciência está além do som e do silêncio. Você não pode ouvir a minha voz. Mas você pode desfrutar do meu Silêncio. Na mente, você expressa pensamentos. A Consciência é só Silêncio, não tem expressão. O que diferencia um professor advaita de um Mestre, é que esse último nunca fala, enquanto o primeiro fala bastante. Com um professor você aprende, porque ele tem o que ensinar. Com um Mestre você desaprende; ele só faz uma coisa: destruir os seus conhecimentos, porque eles não servem para nada!
