about quipu

Khuipus were knotted strings to encode information such as census data, accounting, inventory resources, royal histories, myths, and even songs used by Andean cultures, particularly the Incas . They’re designed to record and hold records .

​

Khipus represented other ways of knowing and recording transactions  - today, Quipu  situates technology to collaborate with the economic and social roots of our region and record information that will empower local economies.
