  • "What Can Digital Composition Provide for Historical Narration?” Talk by Shahzad Bashir of Brown University

    Sponsored by:
    Religion
    “This talk will focus on the ideas and processes that went into creation of the multimodal digital monograph A New Vision for Islamic Pasts and Futures (MIT Press, 2022). I will emphasize that successful digital composition requires a close connection between the argument one wishes to make regarding one’s topic (in my case the relationship between Islam and time) and possibilities available in digital representation. I will also expand beyond my own published work to share examples of how projects of various historical scales can put digital tools to use for quite different ends.”

    Catherine Grant: Videographic Criticism as Cryptographic Film and Moving Image Studies

    Sponsored by:
    Film & Media Culture
    Making video essays can often feel as much of a mysterious process as a scholarly or critical one. Weird things can often happen in the process of editing together sequences from films, television and audiovisual media; curious coincidences, felicitous discoveries, and striking disclosures can often happen because of the technical affordances of the editing platforms we use, or because of the the formal or aesthetic devices, dispositifs or audiovisual interfaces we construct.

    Sorrow, Tears and Blood: The Enduring Legacy of the Afrobeat Prophet

    Music
    Fela Anikulapo Kuti remains the most critical politically focused artist in African music history. This presentation will examine Kuti’s 1977 album, Sorrow, Tears and Blood, which serves as a focal point for his musical and political development. With Nigeria on the verge of a historic presidential election, this presentation takes stock of the conditions under which everyday Nigerians live through the soundscape and messages of the album. 

    This event is immediately followed by “The Huddle and The Higher Ground” (see separate listing).
