    "abstract": "<p>In Ecuadorian Amazon, Napo Kichwa people have turned to live performances and the production of various forms of media to confront settler colonial disruption and language shift. In this article, I consider the multimodal reclamation of language and culture through a fiber called <em>pita</em> (<em>Aechmea magdalenae</em>). By remembering and reclaiming cultural practices and environmental knowledge—like the production of <em>pita</em>—alongside embodied language, the growth of <em>pita</em> in a local ecology of broadcast and performance media allow participants to reweave lifeways in the context of ongoing disruptions. Broadcast and performance media become a place-based, multimodal means to reclaim lifeways and linguistic practices.  </p>",
