SUMMARY:Joe Goodkin | The Blues of Achilles
DESCRIPTION:This Saturday Joe Goodkin will perform “The Blues of Achilles” at UCLA. Undergrads\, postbaccs & grads from across Southern CA are welcome to attend this inaugural event of the SoCal Classics Collective\, beginning at 2:30 pm at the Fowler Amphitheater. The performance will be followed by light refreshments and Q & A with Joe Goodkin. \nPrior to the performance (2pm) students will have the opportunity to meet with UCLA faculty and graduate students for an informal discussion about life after the BA. \nJoe Goodkin is a Chicago-based singer/songwriter. He tours the country performing his one-man folk-opera interpretation of Homer’s Odyssey (over 350 performances in 46 US states\, Canada\, Greece\, Italy\, and The Netherlands) and for years released music under the name Paper Arrows (five records total). In 2020\, he premiered a new classically-inspired work\, The Blues of Achilles\, a 17 song reimagining of Homer’s Iliad\, and performed both classically-inspired works extensively during the pandemic in the Zoom environment. From 2015 through 2017 he released a trio of EPs entitled Record of Life/Loss/Love and in 2019 a collection of live recordings entitled (somewhat confusingly) Paper Arrows. Throughout 2020 (yes\, even during the pandemic) he released a new song a month. In 2022 he released a recording of The Blues of Achilles tracked by Steve Albini at Electrical Audio Studios. \n

SUMMARY:Elemental Readings I: Air
DESCRIPTION:[gravityform id=”3″ title=”true” description=”true”]A Luskin Endowment for Thought Leadership Conference\, co-sponsored by the Departments of Classics and English\, UCLA.

This conference brings together scholars from a variety of disciplines who are seeking to redefine the role of air\, atmosphere\, and the weather in traditionally non-scientific media (predominantly poetry\, writing\, music\, photography\, and film). The topic invites discussion of the mutability of weather as an invisible ontology (and marker of climate change) as well as discussions of atmosphere (whose porous and unfinished nature embraces a broad range of entities\, from modes of knowing and feeling\, to the stuff we breathe\, to outer space). In each of these cases\, air’s mediating possibilities across fields\, materials\, and periods are especially rich for collaboration and the exchange of ideas. \nOur conference seeks fruitful points of contact between two colleagues in English and Classics at UCLA\, who both work on air and the elements\, joining with scholars from media studies\, art history\, and environmental humanities\, for a multifaceted discussion of a common object. \nPlease send any inquiries to purves@g.ucla.edu \nPlease note that the conference will be on-site only. \nSchedule \nFriday\, May 19th \n1:20 Opening Remarks \nLouise Hornby & Alex Purves\, UCLA \n1:30-3:30 Panel 1: Sentient Air \nHsuan Hsu\, University of California\, Davis\, “Smellscape as Distributed Memory” \nVictoria Wohl\, University of Toronto\, “Intelligent Air” \nResponse: Dora Zhang\, University of California\, Berkeley \n3:30 Coffee Break   \n4-5:30  Keynote \nJohn Durham Peters\, María Rosa Menocal Professor of English and of Film & Media Studies\, Yale University \n“On Sensing and not Sensing the Air and the Weather” \n  \nSaturday\, May 20th \n8:00 am  coffee\, tea & light refreshments \n8:30-10:45 Panel 2: Meteorologies \nVerity Platt\, Cornell University\, “Air in Unexpected Places: Foam\, Breath\, and Philostratus’ Truth in Painting” \nLouise Hornby\, UCLA\, “Outside Air: Cloud Forms in the Work of Tacita Dean and Ali Smith” \nJustine Pizzo\, University of Southampton\, “Character Studies and the Changing Climate of Victorian Realist Fiction” \nResponse: Karla Nielson\, the Huntington Library \n10:45 Coffee break \n11-12.45  Panel 3: Violence in the Air \nBen Tran\, Vanderbilt University\, “Unburied Sound and the Atmosphere” \nMario Telò\, University of California\, Berkeley\, “Achrony and Aeropolitics in Aulis” \nResponse: Liz DeLoughrey\, UCLA \n1-2 Lunch break \n2- 4:15 Panel 4: Ambience \nEleanor Kaufman\, UCLA\, “Mudimbe’s Air in French Philosophy” \nKatharine Earnshaw\, University of Exeter\, “Thought Bubbles and Feeling Blue (or\, Micromeditations on affective Chromacities)” \nShane Butler\, Johns Hopkins University\, “First Atmosphere: Ashes” \nResponse: Jim Porter\, University of California\, Berkeley \n4:30-5 Closing Remarks \nLouise Hornby & Alex Purves\, UCLA \n
