SUMMARY:Robin Hunicke: “The Art of Feel Engineering: Design\, Art\, Games & Playable Media at UCSC”
DESCRIPTION:Robin Hunicke’s practice focuses on creating boundary-expanding\, experimental game experiences by combining unique concepts and technologies. She works to create games that deliver unexpected emotional outcomes to players. This includes games that are peaceful and introspective\, creative and healing as well as experiences that encourage intergenerational and international communication and play. \nHunicke is Associate Professor of Digital Arts & New Media at UC Santa Cruz. \n  \nThe Center for Cultural Studies will continue to host a Wednesday colloquium series\, which features current cultural studies work by campus faculty and visitors. The sessions are informal\, normally consisting of a 30-40 minute presentation followed by discussion. We gather at noon\, with presentations beginning at 12:15. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunches; the Center will provide coffee\, tea\, and cookies. \n

SUMMARY:Marc Matera: "The Global 1930s: The International Decade"
DESCRIPTION:The 1930s usually conjure up images of Soviet show trials\, jack-booted\, brown-shirted German fascists\, and breadlines and the dustbowl in the United States. The decade is also associated with the failure of internationalism in the face of economic depression and militaristic nationalisms. Certainly these form part of the picture\, but a Europe- and North American-centered view obscures and distorts the broader global context of which they were an integral part. A global perspective on the 1930s not only decenters Europe and the United States but also reveals that\, despite incipient or resurgent expressions of the national principle\, internationalist impulses and transnational connections better characterize the dynamics of the period. \nThis talk comes from the forthcoming book\, The Global 1930s\, which Professor Matera coauthored with Professor Susan Kingsley Kent. The book treats the 1930s as the international decade\, focusing particularly on internationalism—as Western imperialists\, socialists and communists\, and anticolonial activists/intellectuals conceptualized it—to foregrounds the role that imperialism played in fostering global relations at the same time that it destabilized the European world order. Transcolonial connections and anticolonial internationalisms motivated\, kindled\, and inspired developments that set the stage for decolonization and movements for international standards for human and civil rights that are usually associated with the decades following the Second World War. Postwar conceptions of development\, citizenship\, and sovereignty\, however attenuated\, emerged through and in response to the struggles of colonized and semicolonial populations across the global South and in imperial metropoles during the 1930s. \nOrganized by the IHR Research Center for World History.

SUMMARY:Friday Forum for Graduate Research: Sophie PappenheimBlack
DESCRIPTION:“Black Storm Clouds and a Queer Yellow Light: Reading the Affective Edges of Symbolism in Maru” \nMy project is to read postcolonial novels that have typically been analyzed as representations of postcolonial politics and instead attend to the nonrepresentational aspects of their language: namely\, their affect and literariness. In this talk I focus on Bessie Head’s novella Maru (1971)\, which itself is concerned with identity\, racial prejudice\, and tribal politics\, as well as representation as mode of signification and figuration\, and which has often been read as an allegorical romance. I argue that reading the effect of the novel’s language against its symbolism troubles this allegory and thus appeals for a new mode of politics. \n\nFriday Forum Fall 2016 Schedule: \nFridays 12:20-2pm\nHumanities 1 Room 202 \nA weekly interdisciplinary colloquium series for sharing graduate research across the humanities. Join us for light refreshments and weekly presentations by your fellow graduate students. \nOctober 14th- Mikki Stelder\, Feminist Studies and History of Consciousness\nOctober 21st- Kali Rubaii\, Anthropology\nOctober 28th- Mitchell Winter\, HAVC\nNovember 4th- Hahkyung Darline Kim\, Film and Digital Media\nNovember 18th- Sophi Pappenheim\, Literature\nDecember 2nd- Nicole Vandermeer\, History
