SUMMARY:Politics of the Digital: Poetry\, Technology\, and the University
DESCRIPTION:This two-day event includes a poetry reading and an interdisciplinary symposium featuring graduate students\, faculty\, and a keynote from Johanna Drucker. \nFriday\, January 31\, 2014: Poetry reading at 6 p.m. at the Felix Kulpa Gallery \nFeaturing Johanna Drucker with Eireene Nealand\, Margaret Rhee\, and Tsering Wangmo \nSaturday\, February 1\, 2014: Interdisciplinary symposium at Humanities 1\, room 210 \nPanel One: Textual and Visual Technologies—Pre-Histories of a Digital Era \nPanel Two: Digital Practice and Database Aesthetics \nPanel Three: Neoliberalism and the Digital Future \nKeynote from Johanna Drucker: Towards a New Humanism \nThe activities associated with the term “digital humanities” have gained much attention recently in academic and mainstream venues. But have core values of humanism been discounted as a result? Do the techniques of analytic processing or other engagements with large data displace or devalue those of more traditional method and even\, perhaps\, traffic in the worst kind of concessions to administered culture? Might these digital approaches be at odds with the tenets of humanistic inquiry? What are the ways out of a binaristic opposition between a retro-oriented\, possibly conservative\, defense of “the humanities” and a techno-digital approach that seems to some to dehumanize cultural materials by treating them as “data”? The answer might be in recovering the methods of humanism\, rather than just its objects. Engagement with the materiality of texts and artifacts crosses many disciplinary lines—from traditional critical studies\, bibliography\, and law to current studies of media archaeology\, new materialism\, and digital interpretation. This talk addresses ways in which the cultural authority of the humanities might be formulated as a new humanism whose methods and values extend traditional interpretative work while taking up some of the potential offered by data-driven and algorithm-based approaches to the study of human culture. \nReception at the Kresge Provost House \nMore info and full agenda available at http://www.ucscpoetrypolitics.com/upcoming-events.html

SUMMARY:Radical Reading Practices\, A Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Radical Reading Practices\, A Symposium\, April 18-19\, 2013\nPresented by UCSC’s Poetry and Politics Research Cluster. Sponsored by the Porter Hitchcock Poetry Fund and the UC Humanities Network\, with staff support provided by the Institute for Humanities Research. \nThis symposium attends to the work that readers perform when reading and reconstructing poetry. We focus on the particular ways poetry makes historically and politically significant demands on readers. We hope to foster a conversation about assumptions that structure the way we approach poetry and the larger aesthetic\, historical and theoretical categories that are implicated by our approach. Is poetry\, for example\, a more radical category than prose? Is there a revolutionary way to read it? Is close reading necessary when reading poetry? Is close reading a more radical mode of engaging with texts than other practices? What might those other practices look like? \nSymposium Schedule:\nThursday\, April 18th\, at the Felix Kulpa Gallery (107 Elm Street\, Santa Cruz) \n5:30-7:00pm An evening of poetry with readings:\nChristopher Nealon\nJoshua Anderson\nEmily Carr\nDavid de La Rocha\nGrace Emilie\nDavid Lau\nEireene Nealand\nRob Wilson\nStephanie Young\nFriday\, April 19th at UC Santa Cruz (Humanities 1\, room 210) \n8:30-9:00am Light Breakfast \n9:00-9:30am Opening remarks\nwith Keegan Finberg and Juliana Leslie \n9:30-10:45am Radical Reading Practices: An Undergraduate Roundtable \nMatthew Strebe\, “‘Boots Shining and Gleaming’: Poetry and State Violence”\nGrace Emilie\, “The Unknown Heart Speaks: Embodied Reading Practices and You”\nAnnie Hill\, “Faust Ubersetzt”\nMichael Moreno\, “Technology and Me: A Look at the Effects of Integrating Technology with Poetry”\nGrace Williams\, “Reproduction through Interpretation: Exploring Critical Reading”\nModerator and respondent: Tim Willcutts \n11:00-12:30pm Panel One: Commons\, Collectivity\, Community: From Ancient to Contemporary\nStephanie Young\, “Precarious Reading”\nEmily Carr\, “A\,B\,C: Reading Cultural Jams in Contemporary Poetry”\nKendra Dority\, “Figuring Letters: A Politics of Comparative Reading in Athenaeus’ Deipnosophistae”\nModerator and respondent: Christopher Nealon \n12:30-1:30pm Lunch—bring your own or eat on campus restaurants \n1:30-3:00pm Panel Two: Historicizing Revolutionary Reading Practices \nDaniel Benjamin\, “Searching for the Human and Searching for the Ghost in George Oppen’s “Of Being Numerous”\nDavid de la Rocha\, “Nicaraguan Poetry and Reading Revolution”\nDavid Lau\, “Poetry as Superstructure: Comments on Chris Nealon’s The Matter of Capital”\nModerator and respondent: Dion Farquhar \n3:15-4:45pm Panel Three: Models of Reception/Questions of Audience \nWhitney De Vos\, “Artificial Memory & the Fate of Crystallized Intelligence: Reading Poetry as a Means of Retrieval”\nEireene Nealand\, “Why Should We Listen to Criminals?: The Death of the Reader and the Rise of the Trace”\nJoshua Anderson\, “Implications of the Surface: A Critique of Surface Reading”\nModerator and respondent: Chris Chen \n5:00-6:00pm Keynote by Christopher Nealon\, “Poetry without Modernity” \n6:00pm Reception at the Cowell Provost’s House
