[Sehefac] TWO EVENTS WITH JUSSI PARIKKA: GRAD SEMINAR AND BOOK CONVERSATION

[Gloria Kim]

Dear all,

I write with two exciting announcements! Please take note of two events; a
special graduate seminar, and a book conversation with Dr. Jussi Parikka,
an internationally acclaimed Professor in Digital Aesthetics and Culture at
Aarhus University in Denmark, a curator, and a public intellectual.

Please also help spread the word amongst your Departments and networks.

*Both events take place on January 11, 2025 in INTS 1111, light
refreshments provided.*

*Parikka Graduate Seminar
<https://events.ucr.edu/event/proseminar?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=UC+Riverside&_gl=1*775ni7*_ga*MTc1OTc2OTA3MS4xNjM2NTI3MzA5*_ga_S8BZQKWST2*MTczMzk0NTY1MS40ODYuMS4xNzMzOTQ3OTQ1LjAuMC4w*_ga_Z1RGSBHBF7*MTczMzk0NTY1MS40ODYuMS4xNzMzOTQ3OTQ1LjAuMC4w>
"Ecomedia
and/as Problem Spaces" *
(SEATS ARE LIMITED- REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED)


   - The seminar is aimed at graduate students interested in ecomedia /
   environmental media, broadly construed (encompassing textual, artistic,
   design, and experimental approaches). Graduate students will work with
   Parikka in developing thinking around two themes: *ecomedia* (as an
   approach and a body of theory and critical discourse) and *problem
   spaces* (as a methodological concept of defining a space of a research
   problem). Readings will be distributed to registered participants in
   advance.


*Book Conversation: LIVING SURFACES*

PLANTS, and ENVIRONMENTS OF MEDIA*


   - Living Surfaces examines a range of case studies from
   eighteenth-century experiments with and observations of vegetal matter,
   photosynthesis, and plant physiology to twenty-first-century machine vision
   and AI techniques of calculating agricultural and other landscape
surfaces. Copies
   of the book will be available for sale and signing at the event.



Warmly,
Gloria
