2026 Dance Alumni Takeover Movement Matters
- Sponsored by:
- Dance, Mahaney Arts Center, and Center for Careers & Internships
“Making Noise” A deep practice of listening informed by Graham Shelor’s ‘23 research for his most recent dance project - NOISE REDUCTION. In this session, participants are guided through somatic listening practices designed to tune their internal awareness of the moving body. We will expand our gaze outward, engaging in group improvisational scores that challenge our understanding of what it means to be in community. Together, we will investigate: How can we communicate through our bodies? How do we make space to speak and share space to listen?

She Who Knows: Resistance to Gendered Racialization in Early-19th-Century Ottoman Tunis and Present-day Reverberations
- Sponsored by:
- Dean of Faculty
This lecture turns to the Ottoman province of Tunis, a terminus for trans-Saharan human trafficking in the late 18th and early 19th century, to center the lives of enslaved women forcibly conveyed to the province. It examines how the violence of slavery intersected with French economic intervention in the region as well as with emerging racial ideologies held by Tunisian and western African elites. This lecture critiques disembodied historical perspectives conventionally preserved in state archives, like those of the chief doctor to the Ottoman governor of Tunis.
