SUMMARY:Thinking Gender 2024: “Dystopian Realities\, Feminist Utopias”
DESCRIPTION:When: Friday\, March 1\, 2024 (In Person)\nWhere: James West Alumni Center\, The Collins Conference Room\, 325 Westwood Plaza\, Los Angeles\, CA 90095 \nJoin us for the 34th Annual Thinking Gender Graduate Student Research Conference “Dystopian Realities\, Feminist Utopias.” Thinking Gender 2024’s conference theme considers what it means to live in the cataclysmic wake of racial capitalism\, settler colonialism\, and neoliberalism.

Guests who have not pre-registered may be admitted if space permits. \n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n \nCosponsors\nAfrican American Studies \nAnthropology \nAsian American Studies Center \nBixby Center on Population and Reproductive Health \nChicana/o and Central American Studies \nComparative Literature \nDisability Studies \nEquity\, Diversity\, and Inclusion \nGender Studies \nGraduate Division \nHumanities Division \nInstitute for Research on Labor & Employment \nInstitute of American Cultures \nInternational Institute \nJustice\, Equity\, Diversity and Inclusion\, David Geffen School of Medicine \nLGBTQ Campus Resource Center \nRalph J.

SUMMARY:Book Talk: Feng-Mei Heberer
DESCRIPTION:Where: Darren Star Theater (Melnitz 1422A) \nWhen: Wednesday\, February 14\, 2 pm-3:50 pm \nJoin CSW|Streisand Center and the School of Theater\, Film and Television for a book talk with author Feng-Mei Heberer\, discussing\, “Undoing Documentation as Racialized State Surveillance: the Moving Image Undocument.” \nThis talk examines visual documentation and the documentary form in their intimate connection with racialized state surveillance and border control in the United States. It discusses the ways that visual documents such as the photograph have been wielded on behalf of U.S. immigration policy to contain border crossings since the Chinese Exclusion Act (1882)\, and highlights the underexamined linkage between official documentation and historical processes of Asian racialization. \nAgainst this backdrop\, Herberer turns to the work of Miko Revereza\, a Philippine-born artist and self-ascribed “undocumented-documentary filmmaker”\, exploring how Revereza advances an aesthetic of the fugitive and ephemeral undocument that both attunes us to documentation’s violent history and mobilizes moving image practices beyond the demand to capture and report.

SUMMARY:Unsettling Landscape: Experimental Films by Southeast Asian Women Filmmakers
DESCRIPTION:When: January 27\, 2024\, 7:30 pm \nWhere: Billy Wilder Theater \nIn-person: Q&A with filmmakers and UCLA Associate Professor Jasmine Nadua Trice. \nAdmission is free. No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come\, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. \nShowcasing a collection of recent experimental works by Southeast Asian women filmmakers\, Unsettling Landscape focuses on short films and videos that critically engage with questions of land\, landscape and the myriad forms of mediation that have been used to capture their image. Like painting and the diorama\, the camera has been a tool of colonial authority\, historical narrative\, and scientific knowledge production\, laying the groundwork for unfettered development projects and extractive capitalism. Capturing an image of land through mediation can be an act of complicity\, binding it and rendering it legible as scenery\, property and territory. Reflexively engaging with such practices of mediation\, these works suggest that the moving image also allows space for refusal. Unearthing the deep time of tectonic shifts and Animist belief systems\, unraveling statist development narratives and unlearning colonial ways of knowing\, these films unsettle the complex relations between lens and land\, offering new possibilities for spatial transformation on screen. \nSeries programmed by CSWAC member and Associate Professor Jasmine Nadua Trice\, UCLA Cinema and Media Studies. \nRelated Media\n\nView PDF of the flier.\nSee Upcoming Events in this Series\nRead Jasmine Trice’s blog post “Unsettling Landscape: Exploring Southeast Asian Women Filmmakers’ Visionary Perspectives.“

Reconsidering Music\, Technology\, and Gender is a one-day symposium that seeks to revisit the many ways in which musicians and listeners utilize technology (through various plug-ins and softwares\, the internet\, hardwares\, instruments\, and platforms) to create\, challenge\, subvert\, and affirm. This symposium calls for renewed and new perspectives on the intersections of music\, technology\, and gender\, enlivened attention to contemporary contexts and practices of music making\, and un- or under-told counter-histories of celebrations and governances of gender in musical life. We welcome proposals that engage the three terms\, but need not otherwise be limited vis-à-vis genre\, geography\, sound\, social milieu\, or disciplinary methodology. Scholars and practitioners are invited to present in a variety of formats\, including but not limited to: conference-style papers\, panels\, musical performances\, and production demonstrations. \nCall for Papers: Submission Guidelines\nPlease submit an abstract (no more than 250 words) of your proposal using the google form linked below.\nPresentations will each be 15 minutes. Panels/roundtables should incorporate 3-4 presenters and last 45\nminutes. The deadline for submissions is November 1\, 2023. Participants will be notified by November 15\,\n2023. If you have questions\, please email Catherine Provenzano or Lily Shababi. \nSubmit Proposal \nView flier \nContact\nCatherine Provenzano (cprovenzano@schoolofmusic.ucla.edu)\nLily Shababi (lilyshababi@ucla.edu) \nThis symposium is presented by the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music in collaboration with the Center for the Musical Humanities and co-organizers Catherine Provenzano and Lily Shababi.

SUMMARY:ELTS 3rd Annual Graduate Student Conference
DESCRIPTION:Where: Royce Hall 308 \nWhen: November 13-14\, 2023 \nJoin the Department of European Languages and Transcultural Studies’ 3rd Annual Graduate Student Conference: “Speculative Futurities\, Past and Present.” \nRegister Here\nView the program (PDF). \nThe graduate students of the Department of European Languages and Transcultural Studies at the University of California\, Los Angeles are inviting submissions to the third annual ELTS Graduate Student Conference. Our keynote speakers will be Prof. Lydie Moudileno (University of Southern California) and Prof. David Bates (University of California\, Berkeley). \nAmir Eshel’s Futurity suggests that literary representations of the past are not only key to understanding our present\, but they also allow us to set the stage for the future\, to improve our understanding of its stakes. Our conference expands on this mode of thinking by reconsidering the ways in which time and space have been and are currently imagined in connection to the European continent and its transnational legacies. What does it mean to speculate on and envision “futurity\,” or the lack thereof? Who holds the keys to imagining\, conceptualizing\, and identifying the future\, and who is seen as even having one?

SUMMARY:Gendered Fortunes Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:When: Thursday\, November 9\, 2-4 pm  \nWhere: UCLA Rolfe Courtyard Scultpure Garden \nRSVP Here.\nAbout \nJoin us for a book talk featuring Professor Zeynep Korkman in discussion Professor Purnima Mankekar. \nIn Gendered Fortunes (Duke University Press)\, Zeynep K. Korkman examines Turkey’s commercial fortunetelling cafés where secular Muslim women and LGBTIQ individuals navigate the precarities of twenty-first-century life. Criminalized by long-standing secularist laws and disdained by contemporary Islamist government\, fortunetelling cafés proliferate in part because they offer shelter from the conservative secularist\, Islamist\, neoliberal\, and gender pressures of the public sphere. Korkman shows how fortunetelling is a form of affective labor through which its participants build intimate feminized publics in which they share and address their hopes and fears. Korkman uses feeling—which is how her interlocutors describe the divination process—as an analytic to view the shifting landscape of gendered vulnerability in Turkey. In so doing\, Korkman foregrounds “feeling” as a feminist lens to explore how those who are pushed to the margins feel their way through oppressive landscapes to create new futures. \nView flier (PDF)
