SUMMARY:Ronaldo Wilson: The Quotidian Lucy and Other Constructions
DESCRIPTION:“The Quotidian Lucy and Other Constructions” explores some recent site-specific and studio performances (written/visual/sonic) that serve as interventions between theory and practice. Discussing new works on paper\, video\, and in performance\, Wilson seeks to inhabit and engage with questions of memory\, genre\, form\, and discipline as strategies through which to examine race\, sex\, and desire in concert with what vocabularies emerge and accrete in rendering multiple drafts of the self through poetic persona\, character\, and movement. \nRonaldo V. Wilson\, PhD is the author of four collections: Narrative of the Life of the Brown Boy and the White Man\, Poems of the Black Object\, Farther Traveler: Poetry\, Prose\, Other\, and Lucy 72. The recipient of fellowships from Cave Canem\, the Djerassi Resident Artists Program\, the Ford Foundation\, Kundiman\, MacDowell\, the National Research Council\, the Provincetown Fine Arts Work Center\, the Center for Art and Thought\, and Yaddo\, Wilson is an interdisciplinary artist\, having performed in multiple venues\, including the Pulitzer Arts Foundation\, UC Riverside’s Artsblock\, Louisiana State University’s Digital Media Center Theater\, Georgetown’s Lannan Center\, Southern Exposure Gallery\, and Casa Victoria Ocampo in Buenos Aires. He is Professor of Creative Writing and Literature at U.C. Santa Cruz. \n

SUMMARY:Surrogate Humanity: Race\, Robots\, and the Politics of Technological Futures
DESCRIPTION:Co-authors Neda Atanasoski (UCSC Feminist Studies\, CRES) and Kalindi Vora (UC Davis Gender\, Sexuality\, and Women’s Studies) will present on their new book Surrogate Humanity: Race\, Robots\, and the Politics of Technological Futures (Duke University Press\, March 2019)\, with responses by CRES Director Christine Hong and SJRC Director Jenny Reardon. A dessert reception will follow. \nBook Description \nIn Surrogate Humanity\, Neda Atanasoski and Kalindi Vora trace the ways in which robots\, artificial intelligence\, and other technologies serve as surrogates for human workers within a labor system entrenched in racial capitalism and patriarchy. Analyzing myriad technologies\, from sex robots and military drones to sharing economy platforms\, Atanasoski and Vora show how liberal structures of antiblackness\, settler colonialism\, and patriarchy are fundamental to human-machine interactions as well as the very definition of the human. While these new technologies and engineering projects promise a revolutionary new future\, they replicate and reinforce racialized and gendered ideas about devalued work\, exploitation\, dispossession\, and capitalist accumulation. Yet\, even as engineers design robots to be more perfect versions of the human—more rational killers\, more efficient workers\, and tireless companions—the potential exists to develop alternative modes of engineering and technological development in ways that refuse the racial and colonial logics that maintain social hierarchies and inequality. \n  \nNeda Atanasoski is Professor of Feminist Studies and Critical Race and Ethnic Studies at the University of California\, Santa Cruz\, and author of Humanitarian Violence: The U.S. Deployment of Diversity. \n  \n  \nKalindi Vora is Associate Professor of Gender\, Sexuality\, and Women’s Studies at the University of California\, Davis\, and author of Life Support: Biocapital and the New History of Outsourced Labor.\n \n  \n  \nHosted by the Science & Justice Research Center. Co-Sponsored by Critical Race and Ethnic Studies and The Humanities Institute.

SUMMARY:PhD+ Workshop – Where Can I Go From Here? Exploring Careers Beyond Academia
DESCRIPTION:Curious about careers outside of academia\, but not sure where to begin? In this interactive workshop\, we’ll begin to explore the many career paths PhDs in the humanities can enter upon graduation. After a brief orientation to ImaginePhD\, a career exploration and planning tool designed for PhDs in the Humanities and Social Sciences\, we’ll discuss how to learn more about different career paths and organizations you might want to work for. Finally\, we’ll talk about next steps – how to move from career exploration to the job search – with a discussion of effective networking techniques and some analysis of the transferrable skills Humanities PhDs develop over the course of their programs. \n  \nErin Brown is the Interim Assistant Director for UCLA’s Graduate Career Services\, providing career exploration and professional development programming\, as well as individual career coaching\, to UCLA graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. Erin earned a PhD in History from UCLA\, where she examined the town-building phenomenon in the late 18th and early 20th century American West. An ardent advocate of thinking outside the box and testing limits\, Erin enthusiastically supports students who want to use their graduate training in innovative and unexpected ways. \n  \nAbout the PhD+ Workshop Series\nPlease join us for the fourth year of PhD+ Workshops\, hosted by the Humanities Institute. We meet monthly\, over lunch\, to discuss possible career paths for PhDs\, internship possibilities\, grants/fellowships\, work/life balance\, elements of style\, online identity issues\, and much\, much more. \nLunch will be served. \nPlease RSVP below: Loading…

SUMMARY:Sean Keilen: Reading Hamlet Now
DESCRIPTION:Shakespeare’s works are rightly famous for their lifelikeness and insights into human affairs. What can they show us about our circumstances now\, in a world where truth is inscrutable\, social and political institutions are in decline\, and we seem to relish conflict more than peace? This lecture will explore that question in the context of Hamlet\, looking specifically at the way that Shakespeare presents reading\, education\, and the theater as resources for self-development and setting the world right. The lecture does not assume any prior knowledge of Shakespeare\, but reading or watching Hamlet beforehand will make for a livelier discussion. \n  \nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n  \nSean Keilen is Professor of Literature and Provost of Porter College at UC Santa Cruz\, where he directs Shakespeare Workshop\, a research center of The Humanities Institute that uses Shakespeare’s writing to bring the campus and the community together in conversation about topics of shared concern. He studies Shakespeare and the history of criticism\, and is the author or editor of books and essays about early British literature and the classical tradition in England. He was educated at Williams College\, Cambridge\, and Stanford University. \n  \n  \n
