SUMMARY:The Living Writers Reading Series: Peter Orner
DESCRIPTION:Into Archives—Across Genres is a reading/performance series featuring poets\, critics\, memoirists\, activists\, visual artists\, essayists\, short story writers\, and novelists who mine various archives to investigate race\, gender\, sexuality\, and class. Writing across multiple disciplines – whether via the epistle\, film & photo essay\, poem\, story\, collage or hybrid text – these authors mine history and present day experience\, exploring and complicating the possibilities and features of genre in their art. \nPeter Orner is the author of four books of fiction including\, Love and Shame and Love\, a New York Times Editor’s Choice Book\, and The Second Coming of Mavala Shikongo\, winner of the Bard Fiction Prize. His first book\, Esther Stories\, will be re-issued next year with a forward by Marilynne Robinson. His latest collection\, Last Car Over the Sagamore Bridge will also be published next year. Recepient of a Guggenheim Fellowship\, Orner is a professor of creative writing at San Francisco State University. \nCo-Sponsored by Porter College George Hitchcock Poetry Fund; Poets & Writers through the grant from the James Irvine Foundation; Asian American/Pacific Islander Resource Center; Literature Department and the Creative Writing Program; UC Presidential Chair Feminist Critical Race & Ethnic Studies; Music Department; Laurie Sain Creative Writing Endowment; The Ethnic Resource Centers and the African American Resource & Cultural Center; Institute for Humanities Research.

SUMMARY:Lewis Watts: New Orleans Suite\, First Friday - Curator's Walk Through
DESCRIPTION:New Orleans Suite presents a window into the landscape of life in New Orleans before and after Hurricane Katrina. Vivid black and white photography exposes the contrast of devastation and humanity in such a rich sector of American jazz culture. Additionally the gallery will showcase some of Watts’ new work from Cuba\, where he is continuing his photographic research \nLewis Watts is a photographer\, archivist and Professor of Art at the University of California\, Santa Cruz. He is co-author of “Harlem of the West\, The San Francisco Fillmore Jazz Era” which consists of found photographs and oral histories of an African American Community that sprang up as a result of the migration west during WW II and that was “urban renewed” out of existence in the late 1960s. He is also the co-author with Professor Eric Porter of “New Orleans Suite” scheduled for publication by the University of California Press in 2013. \nNew Orleans Suite will be at the Sesnon Gallery from October 3 – November 21\, 2012. \nOther programming includes:\n* Ongoing every Wed. eve 5-8p open mic for jazz groups\, film and photography discussions\n* Sunday\, November 4 at 4:00pm – special weekend event featuring music from Cuba\, Flor de Caña \nMore information available at Sesnon Gallery web site – http://art.ucsc.edu/galleries/sesnon/current

SUMMARY:Ben Munson: "Perceived gender and fricative identification"
DESCRIPTION:Two theoretical problems have stood at the core of psycholinguistic research in syntactic comprehension: (1) the resolution of local ambiguity; and (2) syntactic complexity\, or the difficulty incurred in processing locally unambiguous structures. This talk describes a unified treatment of these two problems through the theory of surprisal\, which proposes that comprehenders rationally deploy probabilistic knowledge to yield variability in word-by-word processing difficulty that reflects a wide range of evidential information sources. I present computational modeling and experimental studies showing how surprisal effects account for a range of both garden-path ambiguity resolution and syntactic complexity effects\, and give empirical evidence for the specific quantitative relationship between subjective probability and processing difficulty — as measured by word-by-word reading times — proposed by surprisal theory. For problems of syntactic complexity I compare the predictions of surprisal theory to those of theories positing a primary role of distance-sensitive locality due to memory constraints\, and present new empirical data from studies on German and Russian syntactic processing that provide evidence of both surprisal and locality effects. I close with speculation on possible ways forward toward a unified theory of probabilistic knowledge and memory constraints in incremental sentence comprehension. \nBen Munson is Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Speech-Language-Hearing Sciences at the University of Minnesota.
