One of the most fun ways to get a peek into another person’s life is to experience their city like a local would -- with a homebase in a their space. LifeSwap takes the fun of living how a stranger does one step further. We’ve teamed up with AirBnB to give you a taste of what it’s like to step into someone else’s shoes. We can safely say that this is the best giveaway of any SXSW party around.

Learn about the rapid rise of mobile browsing (and what that means to us) in our interactive globe installation. And hear from Ruth McCarthy, Founder of Mobili Media, about how to get caught up -- and then get ahead.
Phone Home Fest is an outdoor arts festival that affirms radical self care and creative courage. Phone Home Fest engages music, dance, poetry, hip hop performance, and healing arts, to create a space for our community and friends to practice love and liberation through creative celebration! Phone Home Fest showcases local and national artists, as well as health and wellness vendors to amplify themes explored in the Phone Home Art Installation,  currently on display at the Carver Museum.

Phone Home creates a space for us to explore technologies, traditions, and tools that we use to care for ourselves, locate ancestral inspiration, honor our humanity and blaze pathways towards liberation. Phone Home is inspired by elements of the xigga afro-philo-cosmology*, a branch of knowledge and way of being that explores the truths of our origins, our presence, and our universe through a Black cultural lens.
