Abstract
Drawing on frames of divination methodology, subaltern studies and radical participation, this paper begins a provisional process of considering what such engagements might look like as complementary research methodologies that locate indigenous technology not as object of study, but lead investigator to explore more fulsome representations of Portuguese slave shipwrecks and archival accounts of shipwreck survivors on the Indian Ocean coast of South Africa's Eastern Cape province. We consider the intersection of this cosmological frame and divinatory insight with critique of the ecological consequences of the extractive world which has been created in the past few hundred years. This is revealing of the entanglements of ocean trade as `Blue Economy' with indigenous conceptions of the water, ongoing concerns with social justice and the de-centering of colonial knowledge systems.
