SUMMARY:2023 Helene Moglen Lecture in Feminism and Humanities with Wendy Brown – After Humanism and the Nation State: More Democracy\, Democracy that is More\, or Democracy No More?
DESCRIPTION:In most accounts of dangers to democracy today\, the value of the object is assumed. At the same time\, we know that the “demos” of Western democracy violently excludes all nonhuman life and much of humanity too. Democracy is no form apart from this content\, no principle floating freely above these histories. Democracy also requires certain cultural\, educational and economic conditions; certain spatialities and temporalities; and modest access to visible levers of power. Absent these\, the vox populi may well become a terrible\, and terrifying\, screech. This talk reflects on these and other predicaments of democracy today. It asks\, without answering\, how to approach this imperiled creature now. \n \nIn-person attendance\nThe lecture will begin at 4:00pm\, with a Q&A and reception to follow.\nDoors will open at 3:30pm \n \nVirtual attendance \nWendy Brown (Crown ’77\, Politics and Economics double major) is UPS Foundation Professor in Social Science at the Institute for Advanced Study\, Princeton and Class of 1936 Chair\, Emeritus\, at the University of California\, Berkeley. She is the author\, most recently\, of In the Ruins of Neoliberalism: The Rise of Antidemocratic Politics in the West (2019) and Nihilistic Times: Thinking with Max Weber (2023). From 1989-99\, Professor Brown taught at UCSC in the Department of Women’s Studies and worked closely with Helene Moglen to build Feminist Studies. \nThis lecture is presented by the Center for Cultural Studies and made possible by the Helene Moglen Lecture in Feminism and Humanities for the Center for Cultural Studies Endowment\, The Humanities Institute\, and the Department of Politics. \nIf you have any questions or concerns\, please contact Sadie Lynn at sklynn@ucsc.edu.

SUMMARY:Virtual Reality as ‘Virtual Traveling’ for Student & Public Engagement with Historic Sites
DESCRIPTION:3D technologies\, such as LiDAR and photogrammetry\, are being used by archaeologists at sites all over the world\, frequently to record the state of preservation of standing architecture or document field excavations. But 3D and Virtual Reality (VR) can also be used to digitally ‘re-imagine’ or visualize aspects of historic places that are no longer accessible due to landscape change\, the passage of time\, and modern development. Students and the public can ‘virtually travel’ across space and time\, experiencing visualizations of historic sites on different continents or centuries in the past. This one-day event\, Virtual Reality as ‘Virtual Traveling’ for Public Engagement with Historic Sites\, brings together scholars working on the question of Humanities VR and ‘virtual travel’ for presentations and discussion. The workshop will focus on questions of user experience and interaction\, educational design\, ethics\, and the concept of ‘cultural presence’ when virtually traveling (gaming scholar Erik Champion’s theory of ‘being there\, then’). \n \nPresenters \n\nDr. Rita Lucarelli\, Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures\, UC Berkeley\nDr. Eiman Elgewely\, School of Design\, Virginia Tech\nDr. Matthias Lang\, Bonn Center for Digital Humanities\, Bonn University\nDr. Vincenzo Lombardo\, Department of Informatics\, Università degli Studi di Torino\nPh.D. Candidate Maureen McGuire\, History of Art and Visual Culture\, UCSC\nDr. Cameron Monroe\, Anthropology\, UCSC\nDr. Martin Rizzo-Martinez\, State Park Historian II & Tribal Liaison Santa Cruz District\, California State Parks\n\nOrganized by Dr. Elaine Sullivan\, History\, UCSC and sponsored by the Humanities Institute

SUMMARY:Kathleen Cruz Guttierrez – Vernaculars of Plant Knowing: Woven Transformations in the Early 20th-Century Davao Gulf
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Gutierrez will share from her first book project on the history of colonial botany in the Philippines. The book argues that vernaculars of plant knowing made and unmade botany at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries\, when imperial Anglo-European botanists banded together to steady the philosophical and practical tenets of the science under an internationalist banner. Taking as her case study the contrapuntal story of Bagobo weavers and the acceleration of abacá plantations in the Philippines\, Gutierrez demonstrates the disciplinary makings of the science that enabled transformative settler-colonial currents in the Pacific colony’s southern gulf. \nKathleen “Kat” Cruz Gutierrez is Assistant professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Cruz. In 2021 and 2022\, she completed Mellon-funded postdoctoral and interdisciplinary residencies at the Humanities Institute of the New York Botanical Garden and the Oak Spring Garden Foundation. A specialist of the history of science and the plant humanities\, she is the co-editor of the forthcoming special issue “Science and Technology Studies in the Philippines” in Philippine Studies. Since joining UCSC\, she has also served as co-PI on the interdivisional campus-community research initiative\, Watsonville is in the Heart. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \nThe Center for Cultural Studies hosts a weekly Wednesday colloquium featuring work by faculty and visitors. We gather at 12:00 PM\, with presentations beginning at 12:15 PM. \nRSVP by 11 AM on the day of the colloquium\, and you will receive the Zoom link and password at 11:30 AM. \nStaff assistance is provided by The Humanities Institute.

SUMMARY:From Symptom to Story: Understanding an Epidemic of Kidney Disease in Central America
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to construct a “cause” of disease? What is the primary source material we consult as we write the narrative of a new disease? When it comes to public health\, how do we fairly and accurately reflect scientific evidence\, personal experience\, and community knowledge? In this talk\, journalist Anna Maria Barry-Jester will use these questions to chart the history of a particular epidemic of chronic kidney disease that\, since the early aughts\, has been recognized as a leading cause of death in parts of Central America. In the two decades that followed\, the global understanding of this condition has expanded to a growing list of communities\, including war-torn parts of Sri Lanka\, agrarian sectors of India and migrant guest workers from Nepal. Drawing from nearly 20 years of reporting — including interviews\, photography\, video\, and scientific literature — Barry-Jester will explore the shifting narratives of the emergence of a disease and interrogate what becomes evidence and how it informs public understanding of disease and its causes. \nPlease email Jennifer Derr (jderr@ucsc.edu) if you would like to RSVP for this event. \nAnna Barry-Jester is a public health reporter with ProPublica. Previously\, she was a senior correspondent covering public health at Kaiser Health News. Her series “Underfunded and Under Threat\,” with colleagues at KHN and The Associated Press\, investigated how chronically underfunded public health departments buckled under the strain of the coronavirus pandemic. The project won awards from the Online News Association and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Her reporting on harassment and menacing threats endured by public health officials was the basis of an episode of “This American Life\,” and PEN America later awarded its PEN/Benenson Courage Award to the officials who she profiled. Barry-Jester has lived and worked in Latin America and Southeast Asia\, where she has reported\, photographed and filmed stories in more than a dozen countries. She was a writer at FiveThirtyEight and a producer at Univision and ABC News. \nThis event is part of the “Race\, Empire\, and the Environments of Biomedicine” Sawyer Seminar series.

SUMMARY:Anna Barry-Jester Reading Group – Mellon Sawyer Seminar on “Race\, Empire\, and the Environments of Biomedicine”
DESCRIPTION:The Mellon Sawyer Seminar on “Race\, Empire\, and the Environments of Biomedicine” will welcome Anna Barry-Jester\, who will lead a reading group exploring explanations of the causes of drug-resistant tuberculosis and the subsequent policy implications. One article looks at the history of TB control policy\, and how “cost-effective” strategies bred drug resistance. Two recent commentaries debate the deployment of new TB treatments in absence of sufficient diagnostic capacity. A fourth article examines the legality of a policy framework that gave different treatment protocols for resource-poor and resource-rich countries. Barry-Jester hopes we can draw on past and current policy debates and decisions to discuss the narratives surrounding what causes drug-resistant TB in order to think about policies at scale. \nEmail Jennifer Derr at jderr@ucsc.edu for a copy of the readings. \nAnna Barry-Jester is a public health reporter with ProPublica.

SUMMARY:Future Ancestral Technologies Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:Future Ancestral Technologies is an exhibition by Cannupa Hanska Luger with mixed-media sculpture\, regalia\, and video\, all based in myth\, science fiction\, and Indigenous futurism. \nScience fiction has the power to shape collective thinking and serves as a vehicle to imagine the future on a global scale. Cannupa Hanska Luger’s Future Ancestral Technologies is Indigenous science fiction. It is a methodology\, a practice\, a way of future dreaming\, rooted in a continuum. Future Ancestral Technologies is an approach to making art objects\, video\, and land based performance with the intent to influence global consciousness. This Indigenous-centered science fiction uses creative storytelling to radically reimagine the future. Moving sci-fi theory into practice\, this methodology conjures innovative life-based solutions that promote a thriving Indigeneity. \nThis Indigenous science fiction is characterized by regalia\, tools\, shelter\, transportation\, and technology which invite the viewer to experience multiple points of entry into Luger’s sci-fi narrative and myth telling through multiple symbiotic landscapes. The ongoing narrative developed by installation and land based work articulates future spaces in which Indigenous people harness technology to live nomadically\, reclaiming hyper-attunement to land and water. Luger’s Future Ancestral Technologies is a story\, a methodology\, a practice\, a way of futurism\, that suggests alternative approaches to recognizing the future with reverence. \nUsing art practice to adopt science fiction\, Future Ancestral Technologies is a context for dismantling time to imagine the distant future and dream of sustainable approaches to the lived experiences of the generations to come. Using traditional craft and the act of making creates futuristic potential\, the process imagines\, enacts and prototypes experiences and technologies that promote Indigenous cultures to thrive into the future. \nFuture Ancestral Technologies challenges and empowers humans—from individuals to industries—to visualize an Indigenous future and to practice empathy and resourcefulness in epochs to come. \n“Future Ancestral Technologies looks to customs in order to move us forward\, advancing new materials and new modes of thinking by utilizing science fiction theory\, creative storytelling\, Indigenous technology and contemporary materials and the detritus of capitalism to present time bending landscapes of myth. ” –Cannupa Hanska Luger \nThis exhibition will run from May 12-September 3\, 2023 and is co-sponsored by The Humanities Institute. \nFor full exhibition information please visit: https://www.santacruzmah.org/exhibitions/future-ancestral-technologies \nHeader Image: Future Ancestral Technologies ++ a generation of new myth ++ 3 channel video installation\, featuring monster slayer regalia\, mirí aráda + awá ahbáaxi.

DESCRIPTION:Large and small\, visible and hidden\, borders weave in and out of our lives along varied dimensions. Some we can see\, many we cannot. Some we celebrate\, others confine us. Some we are aware of\, many remain undiscovered. There are political borders and national borders; psychological\, social\, scientific\, and biological borders. What are borders? Can anything be conceived as involving a border? Come think with us on the evening of May 13 at the new Institute of the Arts and Sciences building\, designed for vibrant possibility. Choose among rooms with synchronic presentations and performances\, led by poets\, philosophers\, scientists\, and artists. Muse with us\, ponder with us\, and talk with one another\, as together each of us travels across\, within\, and at the borders calling to us on this particular evening. \nThis event is brought to the public by the Center for Public Philosophy and the Institute of the Arts and Sciences\, with support and participation of The Humanities Institute\, Cowell College\, and the Philosophical Slug Society. \nFree and open to the public \nTo read more about this event see The Institute of the Arts and Sciences website.
