Buffalo Is the New Buffalo

By: Chelsea Vowel

“Education is the new buffalo” is a metaphor widely used among Indigenous peoples in Canada to signify the importance of education to their survival and ability to support themselves, as once Plains nations supported themselves as buffalo peoples. The assumption is that many of the pre-Contact ways of living are forever gone, so adaptation is necessary. But Chelsea Vowel asks, “Instead of accepting that the buffalo, and our ancestral ways, will never come back, what if we simply ensure that they do?” Inspired by classic and contemporary speculative fiction, Buffalo Is the New Buffalo explores science fiction tropes through a Métis lens: a Two-Spirit rougarou (shapeshifter) in the nineteenth century tries to solve a murder in her community and joins the nêhiyaw-pwat (Iron Confederacy) in order to successfully stop Canadian colonial expansion into the West. A Métis man is gored by a radioactive bison, gaining super strength, but losing the ability to be remembered by anyone not related to him by blood. Nanites babble to babies in Cree, virtual reality teaches transformation, foxes take human form and wreak havoc on hearts, buffalo roam free, and beings grapple with the thorny problem of healing from colonialism. Indigenous futurisms seek to discover the impact of colonization, remove its psychological baggage, and recover ancestral traditions. These eight short stories of “Métis futurism” explore Indigenous existence and resistance through the specific lens of being Métis. Expansive and eye-opening, Buffalo Is the New Buffalo rewrites our shared history in provocative and exciting ways.

Features: Only mathematical prerequisite is an elementary knowledge of calculus Accessible to anyone with an interest in AI and its mathematics and computer science Suitable as a supplementary reading for a course in AI or the History of Mathematics and Computer Science in regard to artificial intelligence.

Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang

By: Chelsea Handler

In these personal essays, the hilarious comedian and Chelsea Lately host reflects on family, love life, and the absurdities of adulthood with "cheeky candor" and signature wit (Philadelphia Inquirer). Life doesn't get more hilarious than when Chelsea Handler takes aim with her irreverent wit. Who else would send all-staff emails to smoke out the dumbest people on her show? Now, in this new collection of original essays, the #1 bestselling author of Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea delivers one laugh-out-loud moment after another as she sets her sights on the ridiculous side of childhood, adulthood, and daughterhood. Family moments are fair game, whether it's writing a report on Reaganomics to earn a Cabbage Patch doll, or teaching her father social graces by ordering him to stay indoors. It's open season on her love life, from playing a prank on her boyfriend (using a ravioli, a fake autopsy, and the Santa Monica pier) to adopting a dog so she can snuggle with someone who doesn't talk. And everyone better duck for cover when her beach vacation turns into matchmaking gone wild. Outrageously funny and deliciously wicked, Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang is good good good good! Chelsea Handler on . . . Being unpopular: "My parents couldn't have been more unreasonable when it came to fads or clothes that weren't purchased at a pharmacy." Living with her boyfriend: "He's similar to a large toddler, the only difference being he doesn't cry when he wakes up." Appreciating her brother: "He's a certified public accountant, and I have a real life." Arm-wrestling a maid of honor: "It wasn't her strength that intimidated me. It was the starry way her eyes focused on me, like Mike Tyson getting ready to feed.

Crafting Collectivity

American Rainbow Gatherings and Alternative Forms of Community

By: Chelsea Schelly

Every summer, thousands of people assemble to live together to celebrate the Annual Gathering of the Rainbow Family. Participants establish temporary systems of water distribution and filtration, sanitation, health care, and meals provided freely to all who gather, and they develop sharing and trading systems, recreational opportunities, and educational experiences distinct to this creative social world. The Rainbow Family has invented itself as a unique modern culture without formal organization, providing the necessities of life freely to all who attend. The Annual Gathering of the Rainbow Family has been operating for more than forty years as an experiment in liberty that demonstrates how material organization, participation, and cultural connection can reshape social relationships and transform individual lives. Grounded in sociological theory and research, the book considers what kind of culture the material systems of Babylon reinforce and how society could facilitate the kind of social world and human welfare humans desire.

Fatal Reset

By: Chelsea Caslie

Fighting is Tack's way of life, but trust is a difficult concept when she's programmed to expect betrayal. With new items and skills, Tack continues to battle against the Glitch, protecting the ones around her, including those in other games, and must allow others to fight with her, including new allies from Norse and Greek mythology. Rebelling against her typical intuition and traits, Tack trusts in what she's told. But when she is confronted with conflicting information regarding the Glitch, she is forced to choose who she trusts enough to fight with. If the only people who understand the Game aren't giving straight answers, who can Tack trust to help her save the world? ------ Virtual reality has become the only way of life, and no one can tell the difference between what is virtual and what is real. So when a glitch began destroying Tack's reality, she stood up to save it. However, understanding that what you perceive as the real world is actually virtual is outside Tack's realm of expertise. "Friendships help bridge trust issues," is what Olivia would say. Unfortunately, as the truth trickles down to Tack about the Glitch, it's hard to determine who is telling the truth, and even harder to cross suspects off her list. As conflicting information is provided, Tack must decide who to trust. The only ones who can help her are those with hidden agendas. With Tack's life on the line, which one of her allies will protect her? PRAISE & REVIEWS "I was fully enthralled from the first page." -Early Reader Review "The most fun I've had reading a book in a years. Chelsea Caslie seamlessly blends action, adventure, romance, drama, and fantasy in a whirlwind love letter to video games of all genres." -Early Reader Review "An exciting take on video-game genres and multiverse storytelling with lovable characters, fun banter, and pace that makes it impossible to put down." -Early Reader Review "An exciting thrill ride. Female led, it adds a new element to the LitRPG genre. Will leave you begging for more!" -Early Reader Review "Extremely detailed and fantastic world-building and character development... If you love feisty, strong female characters, you're going to love Lost in Fantasia. All three novels deliver the same emotive entertainment we love to read while relaying the importance of friendship. I can't recommend it enough." -Early Reader Review
