SUMMARY:History Associates: Patrick McCray\, "Making Art Work: Artists and Engineers in the Age of Apollo"
DESCRIPTION:Join the History Associates this Sunday for an engaging presentation from UCSB History Professor Patrick McCray. \nArtwork as opposed to experiment? Engineer versus artist? We often see two different cultural realms separated by impervious walls. But some fifty years ago\, the borders between technology and art began to be breached. In this talk UCSB history professor (and former engineer) W. Patrick McCray shows how in this era\, artists eagerly collaborated with engineers and scientists to explore new technologies and create visually and sonically compelling multimedia works. Today\, we are in the midst of a new surge of corporate and academic promotion of projects and programs combining art\, technology\, and science. Making Art Work reveals how artists and technologists have continually constructed new communities in which they exercise imagination\, display creative expertise\, and pursue commercial innovation. \nZoom link: ucsb.zoom.us/j/6855143149

SUMMARY:Interdisciplinary Conference on "Fallout: Chernobyl and the Ecology of Disaster"
DESCRIPTION:The interdisciplinary virtual conference Fallout: Chernobyl and the Ecology of Disaster will take place on Friday\, April 30\, 2021 at 9:00am-4:00pm (Pacific Time\, US & Canada)\, when an international slate of speakers representing a variety of disciplines will share their insights on the 35th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster. \n \nThe day before\, an associated Carsey-Wolf Center virtual discussion of the award-winning documentary “The Babushkas of Chernobyl\,” with Director Holly Morris\, will take place on Thursday\, April 29\, 2021 at 4:00pm (Pacific Time\, US & Canada)\, before which registered participants can pre-screen the film.

Situated at a watershed moment during the Cold War\, Chernobyl has spawned an unprecedented quantity of global responses from scientists\, writers\, filmmakers\, and artists\, and it has become a key moment for the global environmental movement. This conference views the accident and its aftermath in the context of broader global ecologies of disaster and considers how catastrophe is coded and understood — or fails to be understood — through the prism of science\, art\, literature\, and film. How do all these disciplines and discourses confront the disaster\, and where do they converge to produce the fiction\, or the truth\, of what we call “Chernobyl”? The conference brings together scholars and experts in Comparative Literature\, History\, Anthropology\, Environmental Studies\, Nuclear Engineering\, Medicine\, Art\, Film\, and Germanic and Slavic Studies.\n \nSponsored by the Division of Arts and Letters and the T. A. Barron Environmental Fund. Event partners include the Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies\, the\, and the Carsey-Wolf Center. Other sponsors include the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center\, Department of Global Studies\, Comparative Literature Program\, Environmental Studies\, Cold War Studies\, College of Creative Studies\, and History Department. (Rescheduled from April 2020 when it was postponed due to COVID-19.)
