| Call for Participation: The Assignment Book Posted: 06 Oct 2011 02:56 PM PDT CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS The Assignment Book - http://www.theassignmentbook.org/ Participate in the The Assignment Book blog! The blog accompanies the exhibition of Luis Camnitzer's project The Assignment Book, currently shown in the Arnold and Sheila Aronson Galleries galleries of the New School (see info below). Check out the assignments on the blog, post your responses, visit the show, follow us on Twitter: Blog: http://www.theassignmentbook.org/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/#!/_AssignmentBook The Assignment Book A project by LUIS CAMNITZER Curated by Christiane Paul and Trebor Scholz Digital Media Coordinator: Christine Zenyi Lu Wednesday, September 21, through Sunday, October 16, 2011 Arnold and Sheila Aronson Galleries, Sheila C. Johnson Design Center, Parsons The New School for Design 66 Fifth Avenue at 13th Street, NY, NY "In The Assignment Book I am trying to bridge the distance between artist and viewer, and start a dialogue and collective research instead of merely communicating by way of a monologue. I would like to share unresolved and sometimes ridiculous conundrums and questions that hopefully lead to critical inter- and multidisciplinary thinking, and unleash similar but collectively generated stimuli. Not unlike the blog format, answers and suggestions should enter the exhibition space so that the stage is shared with the visitors, leading to deinsitutionalized learning: Learning Without a School. In this I abandon the traditional declarative stance of the artist/teacher. Being accountable for how I deal with the assignments I become an unprotected artist/learner." - Luis Camnitzer The Assignment Book is organized as part of the Mobility Shifts International Future of Learning Summit (The New School, October 10-16,2011). A Conversation with the Artist & Curator Tuesday, October 11, 6:30-8:30 pm Sponsored by the Vera List Center for Art and Politics Wollman Hall 65 West 11th St, 5th Floor, NY, NY Luis Camnitzer is an Uruguayan artist residing in the U.S. since 1964.

His work has been exhibited in several international exhibitions, among them the Venice Biennale (1988 when he represented Uruguay with a one-person show), the Whitney Biennial (2000), and Documenta XI (2002). His work is in over thirty museum collections, among them the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Tate Modern, London; and the Museo de Bellas Artes, Havana, Cuba. He presently is the pedagogical advisor for the Patricia Phelps de Cisneros Collection. Among his books are New Art of Cuba, Conceptualism in Latin American Art: Didactics of Liberation and On Art, Artists, Latin America and Other Utopias, all published by University of Texas Press.

| MIT Media Lab Open House for Prospective students Posted: 06 Oct 2011 09:18 AM PDT Announcing the First Annual Open House for Prospective Students at the MIT Media Lab Join us on Monday, October 31, 2011 to learn more about the MIT Media Lab's graduate degree programs. This open house will give prospective students the opportunity to meet Media Lab faculty and students and learn about Media Lab research. The MIT Media Lab offers a graduate experience like no other, allowing students to shape the future of technology by conducting creative, cutting-edge, and interdisciplinary research. It is one of the few places in the world where leading scientists, designers, and engineers — in fields as diverse as robotics, art, neuroscience, and education — work together to revolutionize how humans experience, and can be aided by, technology. Each graduate student works in one of the Media Lab's 25 research groups under the guidance of a primary research advisor (see http://admissions.media.mit.edu/admissions/research). Students come from a wide variety of backgrounds including, but not limited to: computer science, psychology, electrical engineering, music, mechanical engineering, graphic design, and architecture. All Media Lab graduate students receive full financial support (tuition, medical insurance, and a stipend) in the form of Research Assistantships and must apply to the Media Arts and Sciences (MAS) Department at MIT. For more information about the open house and to register, visit the registration page: http://openhouse.media.mit.edu/index.php/rsvp. | ||
| Posted: 06 Oct 2011 07:51 AM PDT + 40:CALL FOR CULTURAL RESISTANCE is a project developed by QUACK2012.ORG with the aim to disseminate the message and the spirit of the iconic guerilla book How to Read Donald Duck: Imperialist Ideology in the Disney Comic (Dorfman & Mattelart), published in 1971 in Chile. "How to Read Donald Duck" constitutes a fascinating model of how a work of cultural resistance can successfully reach millions of readers from around the world and from every possible social background. Written in 1971, in the middle of a Chilean revolutionary process, which advanced not just the social and economic emancipation of its citizens but also its cultural liberation from imported forms of mass entertainment, the book was an insolent manifesto that appropriated copyrighted images without consent; the first of its kind to offer a radical interpretation of the neo-liberal values that were being transmitted through the (apparently) not so innocent comic strip characters of the world of Disney. Burned in Chile on September 11, 1973, the book then spread like wildfire around the world with more than a millions copies in print in a dozen languages. The book became a cornerstone in the field of cultural studies and communication. John Berger aptly called it a "manual for decolonization". In 1975, the US government seized 3,500 copies of the book for copyright violations. Even though they lost the case, no one has dares to publish it in the USA. Download the Apendix about this fascinating case. The call is for electronic art, graphic design (posters, logos, comic strips, stencils), collective action (performance, happenings, flash mobs, etc…) and video (short and animated clips). The pieces selected will be part of a virtual and physical-site exhibit, interactive and urban installations, video screenings, and a web-conference that will be launched on May 1rst, 2012. Deadline: March 16, 2012 | ||
| The Nonhuman Turn in 21st Century Studies Posted: 05 Oct 2011 09:32 AM PDT The Nonhuman Turn in 21st Century Studies May 3-5, 2012 This conference takes up the "nonhuman turn" that has been emerging in the arts, humanities, and social sciences over the past few decades. Intensifying in the 21st century, this nonhuman turn can be traced to a variety of different intellectual and theoretical developments from the last decades of the 20th century: actor-network theory, particularly Bruno Latour's career-long project to articulate technical mediation, nonhuman agency, and the politics of things; affect theory, both in its philosophical and psychological manifestations and as it has been mobilized by queer theory; animal studies, as developed in the work of Donna Haraway, projects for animal rights, and a more general critique of speciesism; the assemblage theory of Gilles Deleuze, Manuel DeLanda, Latour, and others; new brain sciences like neuroscience, cognitive science, and artificial intelligence; new media theory, especially as it has paid close attention to technical networks, material interfaces, and computational analysis; the new materialism in feminism, philosophy, and Marxism; varieties of speculative realism like object-oriented philosophy, vitalism, and panpsychism; and systems theory in its social, technical, and ecological manifestations. Such varied analytical and theoretical formations obviously diverge and disagree in many of their aims, objects, and methodologies. But they are all of a piece in taking up aspects of the nonhuman as critical to the future of 21st century studies in the arts, humanities, and social sciences. The conference is meant to address the future of 21st century studies by exploring how the nonhuman turn might provide a way forward for the arts, humanities, and social sciences in light of the difficult challenges of the 21st century. Speakers include: Jane Bennett(Political Science, Johns Hopkins); Ian Bogost (Literature, Communication, Culture, Georgia Tech); Bill Brown (English, Chicago); Wendy Chun (Media and Modern Culture, Brown); Mark Hansen (Literature, Duke); Erin Manning (Philosophy/Dance, Concordia University, Montreal); Brian Massumi (Philosophy, University of Montreal); Tim Morton (English, UC-Davis). Please send abstracts of up to 400 words by Monday, December 19, 2011, to Richard Grusin, Director, Center for 21st Century Studies c21@uwm.edu. Acceptances will be sent by Monday, January 23, 2012.
