SUMMARY:Black Sound Symposium at Indexical
DESCRIPTION:The Black Sound Symposium at Indexical is a 4-day event full of concerts\, talks\, workshops\, screenings\, and interdisciplinary dialogue rooted in Black sound and Black sonic space. The symposium aims to create and sustain community; to celebrate curiosity\, wonder\, disobedience\, collaboration\, and play in artistic work; to expand anti-racist and activist pedagogy and methodologies in and outside of our institutions; and to honor the long and rich lineages of Black virtuosity that have been diminished and erased from artistic canons and social consciousness. \n“Black studies and anticolonial thought offer methodological practices wherein we read\, live\, hear\, groove\, create\, and write across a range of temporalities\, places\, texts\, and ideas that build on existing liberatory practices and pursue ways of living in the world that are uncomfortably generous and provisional and practical and\, as well\, imprecise and unrealized. The method is rigorous\, too. Wonder is study. Curiosity is attentive.”\n-Katherine McKittrick\, Dear Science and Other Stories \nThe Black Sound Symposium is partially sponsored by The Humanities Institute at UC Santa Cruz & the Visualizing Abolition public scholarship initiative at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences\, UC Santa Cruz. Please visit the Black Sound Symposium website for the full symposium schedule and details.

SUMMARY:Christopher Silver – Recording History: Jews\, Muslims\, and Music across Twentieth-Century North Africa
DESCRIPTION:In Recording History\, Christopher Silver provides the first history of the music scene and recording industry across twentieth century Morocco\, Algeria\, and Tunisia. In doing so\, he offers striking insights into Jewish-Muslim relations through the rhythms that animated them. For more than six decades\, thousands of phonograph records flowed across North African borders. The sounds embedded in their grooves were shaped in large part by Jewish musicians\, who gave voice to a changing world around them. Their popular songs broadcast on radio\, performed in concert\, and circulated on disc carried with them the power to delight audiences\, stir national sentiments\, and frustrate French colonial authorities. In asking what North Africa once sounded like\, Silver will introduce the UCSC community to a world of many voices\, whose music defined their era and still resonates into our present. \nChristopher Silver is the Segal Family Assistant Professor in Jewish History and Culture in the Department of Jewish Studies at McGill University. He earned his PhD in History from UCLA. Recipient of grants from the Posen Foundation\, the American Academy of Jewish Research\, the American Institute for Maghrib Studies\, and the Association for Recorded Sound Collections\, Silver is the author of numerous articles on North African history and music\, including in the International Journal of Middle East Studies\, Jewish Social Studies\, and Hespéris-Tamuda. He is also the founder and curator of the website Gharamophone.com\, a digital archive of North African records from the first half of the twentieth century. His first book Recording History: Jews\, Muslims\, and Music Across Twentieth Century North Africa was published in June 2022 with Stanford University Press. \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.
