SUMMARY:Walter Sinnott-Armstrong "Implicit Moral Attitudes"
DESCRIPTION:Most moral philosophers and psychologists focus on explicit moral beliefs that people give as answers to questions. However\, much research in social psychology shows that implicit moral attitudes (unconscious beliefs or associations) also affect our thinking and behavior. This talk will report our new psychological and neuroscientific research on implicit moral attitudes (using a process dissociation procedure) and then explore potential implications for scientific moral psychology as well as for philosophical theories of moral epistemology\, responsibility\, and virtue. If there is time\, I will discuss practical uses of these findings in criminal law\, especially regarding the treatment of psychopaths and prediction of their recidivism. \nWalter Sinnott-Armstrong is Chauncey Stillman Professor of Practical Ethics in the Department of Philosophy and the Kenan Institute for Ethics at Duke University. He has published widely on ethics (theoretical and applied as well as meta-ethics)\, empirical moral psychology and neuroscience\, philosophy of law\, epistemology\, philosophy of religion\, and informal logic. His current work is on moral psychology and brain science as well as uses of neuroscience in legal systems.

SUMMARY:Mireille Lee “The Archaeology of Ancient Greek Dress”
DESCRIPTION:The UCSC Society of the Archaeological Institute of America and The UCSC Archaeological Research Center present: \nArchaeology provides important evidence for ancient Greek dress\, which was essential to the construction of social identities. Although no complete garments survive\, preserved fragments of silk and embroideries indicate the elite status of the wearer. Jewelry\, dress fasteners\, toilet implements\, perfume vessels\, cosmetics\, and mirrors are also important indicators of status and gender. The visual sources\, including sculpture and vase-painting\, depict men and women performing various dress practices. Although some practices\, such as bathing and the use of perfumes\, are common to both genders\, others are specific to either men or women. The visual sources demonstrate other aspects of identity: age and social role are often indicated by hairstyle\, whereas ethnicity is also conveyed by means of garments and body-modifications. Although dress is often considered a mundane aspect of culture\, Professor Lee argues that dress provides unique insight into ancient Greek ideologies. \nRefreshments at 4:30 and reception to follow the lecture \nFree parking for lecture in the lower Cowell parking lot \nMireille Lee is Assistant Professor with the Departments of History of Art and Classical Studies at Vanderbilt University\, and holds her degrees from Bryn Mawr (Ph.D.) and Occidental College. Her research interests include Greek art and archaeology\, in particular the construction of gender in ancient visual and material culture. She has published widely on the social functions of dress in ancient Greece\, including her volume Body\, Dress\, and Identity in Ancient Greece (Cambridge University Press\, 2015). Her current research focuses on ancient Greek mirrors as social objects. \n  \nEVENT PHOTOS:\nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.

SUMMARY:Living Writers: Charlie Jane Anders
DESCRIPTION:Charlie Jane Anders: I’m probably the only person to have become a fictional character in a Star Trek novel and in one of Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City books. \nI’m the editor of io9.com\, where I’m probably best known for my reviews of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and The Last Airbender. Ormy super detailed look at the making of Mork and Mindy. Or for my Game of Thrones recaps. Or for my writing advice columns. Ormy in-depth investigation of people who claim HIV doesn’t cause AIDS. Or my geeky articles about topics like the search for a cure for cancer\, or how Leonard Nimoy changed everything\, or how the TV show Star Blazers helped me deal with being bullied. Or just generally being an obnoxious loud-mouth. \nI won the Emperor Norton Award\, for “extraordinary invention and creativity unhindered by the constraints of paltry reason.” \nI have published a ton of short fiction – way over 100 short stories at this point. I’ve stopped counting. My stories have appeared in Tor.com\, Lightspeed Magazine\,McSweeney’s Internet Tendency\, The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction\, Asimov’s Science Fiction Magazine\, Tin House\, ZYZZYVA\, Strange Horizons\, Apex Magazine\,Uncanny Magazine\, 3 AM Magazine\, Flurb.net\, Monkey Bicycle\, Pindeldyboz\, Instant City\, Broken Pencil\, and in tons and tons of anthologies. One year\, I was in one of the Year’s Best SF anthologies and in Best Lesbian Erotica at the same time. My novelette “Six Months\, Three Days” won a Hugo Award and was shortlisted for the Nebula and Theodore Sturgeon awards. My novel Choir Boy won a Lambda Literary Award and was shortlisted for the Edmund White Award. \nI organizeWriters With Drinks\, which is a monthly reading series here in San Francisco that mashes up a ton of different genres. Every month\, I make up weird fictional bios for the readers and performers\, and nobody’s sued yet. Readers/performers at Writers With Drinks have included the aforementioned Armistead Maupin\, plus Mary Gaitskill\, Amy Tan\, Rick Moody\, Jonathan Lethem\, Dorothy Allison\, W. Kamau Bell\, Luis Alberto Urrea\, Ruth Ozeki\, Ishmael Reed\, Karen Joy Fowler\, Maureen McHugh and just countless others. The SF Chronicle did a really nice article about Writers With Drinks. \nBack in 2007\, Annalee Newitz and I put out a book of first-person stories by female geeks called She’s Such a Geek: Women Write About Science\, Technology and Other Nerdy Stuff. There was a lot of resistance to doing this book\, because nobody believed there was a market for writing about female geeks. Also\, Annalee and I put out a print magazine calledother\, which was about pop culture\, politics and general weirdness\, aimed at people who don’t fit into other categories. To raise money for other magazine\, we put on events like a Ballerina Pie Fight – which is just what it sounds like – and a sexy show in a hair salon where people took off their clothes while getting their hair cut. \n\n  \nSpring 2016 Living Writers Series: Out of Line \nWhy Out of Line? \n“I chose the theme Out of Line because it characterizes the way many of these writers work across genre\, in different genres\, and generally seem to prize the element of surprise in their writing. I’m hoping it will encourage our students to think outside the box and have fun with their writing. In general\, I’m confident this will be a really fun series with a lot of writers with great senses of humor as well as deep interests in the political.” – Professor Micah Perks \nThis event is free and open to the public! Books from the authors will be on sale at the event by the Bay Tree Book Store. Get a book and get it signed by our marvelous visiting authors! \nThursdays\, 6:00-7:45 PM\nHumanities Lecture Hall\, 206 \nApril 7: Githa Hariharan (CANCELED)\nApril 14: Kate Schatz\nApril 21: Manuel Gonzales\nApril 28: Charlie Jane Anders\nMay 5: NO READING\nMay 12: Elizabeth McKenzie\nMay 19: Lev Grossman\nMay 26: Emily Hunt & Julien Poirier\nJune 2: Student Reading

SUMMARY:María en tierra de nadie: Screening & Q&A with Marcela Zamora
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free\, public film screening to kickoff Borders and Belonging: A Series of Events on Human Migration \nTo foster a conversation about migration\, LALS and the CLRC are jointly hosting a special screening of Marcela Zamora’s María en tierra de nadie (María in No Man’s Land)\, 2010. This is the story of three Salvadoran women and their journey to the United States. The film has been called unprecedented and a critical addition to the global migration conversation. The journalists and filmographers involved in creating this unique documentary spent months riding the trains and sleeping in the same shelters as they followed immigrants from El Salvador and Mexico\, attempting to make the harrowing crossing to the United States. \nImmediately following the screening\, Professors John J. Leaños (Film & Digital Media) and Cecilia Rivas (LALS) will moderate a Q&A with the director\, Marcela Zamora. \nMarcela Zamora is a documentary filmmaker and journalist. She has made 14 films about gender and human rights\, including María en tierra de nadie and El cuarto de los huesos / The Room of Bones (2015)\, a documentary about the quest to unearth and identify the disappeared in El Salvador. She studied journalism in Costa Rica and documentary filmmaking in Cuba and has worked for Al Jazeera\, Tele Sur\, and Elfaro.net\, Latin America’s first online newspaper. \nClick here for more info and to register for the event. \nFor questions\, please contact Catherine Ramírez at cathysue@ucsc.edu.

SUMMARY:The Jungle and the Beast: A Conversation with Lewis Watts and Óscar Martínez
DESCRIPTION:The Jungle and the Beast: A Conversation with Lewis Watts and Óscar Martínez is the second event in the Borders and Belonging Series hosted by the CLRC. In The Beast (Los migrantes que no importan\, in the original Spanish)\, intrepid Salvadoran journalist Óscar Martínez accompanies migrants on “the Beast\,” the train that travels from Central America through Mexico to the United States. Meanwhile\, UCSC Professor Emeritus Lewis Watts has captured some of the stasis of migration in his recent photos of “the Jungle\,” the makeshift migrant camp in Calais\, France. Mr. Martínez discusses the migrant trail and Professor Watts shares some of his recent photos from Calais.\nClick here for more info and to register for the event. \nThe title of Martinez’s celebrated book comes from la Bestia\, the old and decrepit train thousands of migrants cling to every day in the hopes of crossing from Central America heading north. Intimately familiar with this scene from his days of on-the-ground reporting in El Salvador\, Martinez compiled his short briefs into one searing look at the crisis of those who many call the “invisible people.” Martinez also is a staff writer for El Faro out of San Salvador and runs “Sala Negra\,” a project with fellow journalists\, investigating the challenging questions addressing and concerning gang violence in Central America. Launched in 2011\, la Sala Negra cover Nicaragua\, Honduras\, El Salvador and Guatemala; four of the most volatile regions in the world today. The consortium works on issues mostly related to organized crime\, prison systems and the culture of violence in the region. Martinez is widely considered a leading voice on these topics and migration related concerns throughout Latin America \nLewis Watts’ photos of “La jungle\,” the makeshift migrant camp in Calais\, France\, describe an intimate and profound look at one of the most dangerous and heavily-trafficked migrant crossings in the world. As the Syrian refugee crisis continues to unfold in the news\, Professor Watts’ imagery shows the universal face of the immigrant and forced migration struggle. The conversation will also be joined by Jennifer González\, Professor of History of Art and Visual Culture\, who will moderate the morning’s conversation about migrants and migration in different regions of the world. \nÓscar Martínez is the author of Los migrantes que no importan: En el camino con los centroamericanos indocumentados en México (Icaria/El Faro\, 2010)\, which was translated by Daniela Maria Ugaz and John Washington as The Beast: Riding the Rails and Dodging Narcos on the Migrant Trail (Verso\, 2013). The New York Times has described Mr. Martínez’s writing as “graceful” and “incisive.” His second book\, A History of Violence\, is forthcoming from Verso in 2016. Based in El Salvador\, he writes for Elfaro.net\, Latin America’s first online newspaper. \nLewis Watts joined the Art Department at UC Santa Cruz in 2001 after having taught at UC Berkeley for 23 years. He is a photographer of cultural and urban landscapes\, with a focus on the African diaposora. He has photographed African and Afro-descent communities in the United States\, Latin America\, and Europe and is the co-author (with Elizabeth Pepin) ofHarlem of the West: The San Francisco Jazz Fillmore Era (Chronicle Books\, 2005) and (with Eric Porter) New Orleans Suite: Music and Culture in Transition (University of California\, 2013). \nFor questions\, please contact Catherine Ramírez at cathysue@ucsc.edu.
