SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Gopal Balakrishnan: "The Historical World of Karl Marx"

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Sarah Rebolloso McCullough: "Groovin' and Movin': Mountain Biking\, Counterculture\, and the Grateful Dead"
DESCRIPTION:What does mountain biking have to do with the Grateful Dead? This talk will discuss the intricate role the counterculture played upon the innovation of mountain biking\, begun in the hills of Marin county in the early 1970s. The scene and culture surrounding the Grateful Dead and the San Francisco music scene proved crucial to building the social networks and bodily desires from which mountain biking emerged. \nSarah Rebolloso McCullough studies the role of bodily sensation and ability in the making of technology and the built environment. McCullough is the Associate Director of the Center for the Humanities at UC San Diego and received her PhD in Cultural Studies from UC Davis. She has published articles in Fashion Theory and thirdspace: a journal of feminist theory & culture (available online)\, and is currently working on a manuscript on the origins of mountain biking. She is also the curator of the Mountain Biking History & Culture Archive. \nThis talk is presented by the McHenry Library and cosponsored by the Institute for Humanities Research. For more information\, including disabled access\, please contact Robin Chandler: rlchandler@ucsc.edu\, (831) 459-4212.

SUMMARY:Living Writers Series: Douglas Kearney
DESCRIPTION:Thresholds and Breaking Points \nThe writers in this series will present across multiple genres\, to include poetry\, fiction\, criticism\, and various hybrid genres. Each will explore ways that language tests thresholds of culture\, race\, nation\, sex\, gender\, and desire through the creative imagination. Central to each will be how these thresholds are performed\, tested\, broken\, clarified and complicated in their works. \nPoet/performer/librettist Douglas Kearney’s second\, full-length collection of poetry\, The Black Automaton (Fence Books\, 2009)\, was Catherine Wagner’s selection for the National Poetry Series. Red Hen Press will publish Kearney’s third collection\, Patter\, in 2014. He has received a Whiting Writers Award\, a Coat Hanger award and fellowships at Idyllwild\, Cave Canem\, and others. He teaches at CalArts. \nLocation and Time: All Readings located at Kresge Town Hall 466 | 6-7:45pm \nThe Living Writers Series is co-sponsored by the Porter College George Hitchcock Poetry Fund\, a Poets & Writers through the grant from the James Irvine Foundation\, the Literature Department and the Creative Writing Program\, Morton Marcus Memorial Poetry Reading\, and a Laurie Sain Creative Writing Endowment.
