University Events
How can still images appear to move? One-way artists create visual movement in a motionless work is to show figures mid-action, like we see in the statue of Krishna in the Asian Gallery, his lifted leg and outstretched arms capture a sense of celebration.
Visit the galleries and find examples of movement and rhythm through dancing deities, strolling figures, and mischievous animals, then experiment with one of the earliest forms of animation by creating your own zoetrope—a spinning device that makes drawings appear to move. Visitors can design dancing figures, leaping animals, or swirling patterns!
Sunday FUNday is a free drop-in program for all families and includes admission to the galleries. Supplies available on a first come, first served basis.

Scaling quantum hardware with color center photonics,
Color centers have played a pivotal role in the commercialization of quantum networking and sensing hardware. Moreover, they have the potential to impact the full range of quantum technologies, with silicon carbide (SiC) poised to implement a variety of hardware. From the fundamental side, SiC is a host of record-breaking long lived spin-qubits, with demonstrated spin-photon entanglement and strongly coupled emitter-cavity systems. From the applications side, SiC is an industrially mature material with readily available wafer-scale substrates. To explore its full potential for quantum applications, we integrate near infrared color centers in 4H-SiC with photonic devices for applications in quantum light sources, quantum sensors, quantum repeaters and analog quantum simulation at scale. I will discuss new fabrication approaches, a revised understanding of the nanopillar role in polarization-sensitive excitation and collection of color centers, and new…

Art History
In an era of hyper-acceleration, the most radical act we can take is to slow down, listen, and respond through movement from a place of genuine interiority. This series of workshops uses the body to focus and center thoughts, an invitation to step into a sanctuary of time and rediscover the power of presence.
Over three sessions, join Héctor Alvarez, interdisciplinary artist and assistant teaching professor in Theater Studies, to learn how to connect mindfulness and creative expression.
Tuesday, September 1, Session 1: Deep Listening
Inspired by composer Pauline Oliveros's philosophy that "listening is the basis of all culture," this session focuses on expanding our ability to listen in every possible way to everything possible to hear.
Tuesday, September 8, Session 2: Slow Tempo
By decelerating movement to its threshold, we will heighten kinesthetic awareness and let imagery activate the senses.

Introduced by Dr. Beretta Smith-Shomade and Actor/Dancer Kyme Hersi-Sallid
35mm print provided by UCLA Film and Television Archive.
Coming off the success of She’s Gotta Have It, Spike Lee wrote, directed, produced, and starred in the film School Daze in 1988. The film visualizes life at a fictional, historically Black college, Mission College, one modeled after his alma mater Morehouse College and the other schools of the Atlanta University Center. During this homecoming week, Lee’s musical illuminates concerns being grappled with in 1980s Black collegiate culture surrounding class, color stratification, and pledging at an HBCU.
School Daze fosters debates on a multiplicity of fronts. Talking with students at Fisk University, Lee recalls: “The fraternity members were upset about how fraternities were portrayed in the film. We had 90 minutes of heated dialogue” (Los…

With leader Dave Koz incapacitated by a tortured relationship to the word “smooth” the clock is ticking for the movement’s next leader— one who will attract young fans to ensure that the Smooth World lives forever.

Political Change"

Using the Greenwood Rising Museum’s interpretation of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre as a case study, she explores how public history and collective memory influence support for racial reconciliation, deepen awareness of systemic racism, and inspire civic engagement.

University Events
This conversation explores the ethical foundations of voting and political inclusion. Rather than focusing on current controversies or partisan debates over (Georgia’s) election law, we hope to step back and examine the enduring questions that underlie democratic participation. Among the questions we may consider are: When it comes to voting, whose voices matter? What responsibilities accompany the right to vote? How should we think about representation, civic belonging, and the moral purposes of enfranchisement in a pluralistic society? Our goal is to illuminate the principles that have shaped, and continue to shape, America's democratic experiment.

Film & Media
The Emory Cinematheque Presents: Do the Right Thing
September 16 at 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208
1989 | Run Time: 120 min | DCP
Directed by Spike Lee
Introduced by Dr. Miriam Petty (Northwestern University)
Do the Right Thing is one of Spike Lee’s most powerful films and addresses the lasting impact of racist ideology on African-American and larger U.S. communities, especially within communities where many people must live together. Lee battled with Paramount over the budget and script—issues that were not resolved. He finally ended up getting a deal with Universal Studios along with final cut approval—something he felt committed to having based on the marketing fiasco with School Daze. Do the Right Thing is Lee’s first union film—meaning, the first time he would use a union crew. With some wrangling, he secured a number of African-Americans into the International Brotherhood of Teamsters union, most who had been formerly excluded.
Do the Right Thing, in many people’s minds, is the film that launched Lee…

University Events
Fairness is something we all care about - professionally and personally. Research shows that even when we set out with the best intentions, people sometimes make decisions influenced by patterns they didn't choose and may not notice. This training takes a candid, judgment-free look at how those patterns develop, where they show up at work, and what we can do about them. Participants leave with a clearer understanding of how bias operates in the workplace — and practical tools to make more intentional, fair decisions in their everyday work.

University Events
While you may know that Tableau is a powerful data visualization tool, you may not realize that it also has extensive abilities to reshape, blend, split, join, and run calculations on your original data set. We will explore Tableau’s vocabulary and logic for structuring and processing data, as well as the options for importing single and multiple datasets. We will also look at the different ways to edit and create individual variables thru things like sets, groups, parameters, bins, and calculated fields.
This course assumes some prior Tableau experience. If you are new to the tool, we recommend first viewing our “Intro to Tableau” workshop here: https://scholarblogs.emory.edu/ecds-workshops-content/2024/11/14/intro-to-data-visualization-with-tableau-2/.

Stochastic thermodynamics of active matter: Designing single-particle engines
Stochastic thermodynamics describes the behavior of small systems coupled to
a heat bath, where fluctuations are not only significant but easily observable.
One of the applications is the description of single colloidal-particle
engines - microscopic analogues of classical heat engines. Recently, the
ideas of stochastic thermodynamics have been extended to active matter:
particles that consume energy to produce directed motion. Their inherent
non-equilibrium nature allows for the design of novel microscopic engines
that cannot be realized with thermal particles. In this talk, I will
introduce the foundations of stochastic thermodynamics, microscopic engines, and
standard models for active particles. Then, I will present an active-particle-based
information engine that extracts work from a single particle using measurement
feedback. I will show that optimal work-extraction protocols can be determined by
training a neural…

CMBC
Attention Studies: Configuring a New 'Interdisciplinary Discipline'
Distraction is experienced as one of the key challenges of our time. Digital distractions have been blamed for everything up to and including the destruction of democracy. How can universities rise to the challenge of providing a research base for exploring the concept of attention? Every discipline studies attention in some form or another. Psychology, neurobiology and psychiatry study systems of attention within the brain and the person. Social science, and humanities disciplines study the politics, sociologies and cultural workings of attention. The arts explore how different art forms manipulate attention differently and for different ends. All of these disciplines use radically different methodologies in their exploration of attention and all explore different facets of the same attention system. So, what happens if we try to bring all of this together to articulate a new 'interdisciplinary discipline' of Attention Studies, capable of…

The Art of Presence: A Workshop Series in Contemplative Performance
Art History
In an era of hyper-acceleration, the most radical act we can take is to slow down, listen, and respond through movement from a place of genuine interiority. This series of workshops uses the body to focus and center thoughts, an invitation to step into a sanctuary of time and rediscover the power of presence.
Over three sessions, join Héctor Alvarez, interdisciplinary artist and assistant teaching professor in Theater Studies, to learn how to connect mindfulness and creative expression.
Tuesday, September 1, Session 1: Deep Listening
Inspired by composer Pauline Oliveros's philosophy that "listening is the basis of all culture," this session focuses on expanding our ability to listen in every possible way to everything possible to hear.
Tuesday, September 8, Session 2: Slow Tempo
By decelerating movement to its threshold, we will heighten kinesthetic awareness and let imagery activate the senses.

Lecture: "Reclaiming the Heart and Method of Methodism"
University Events
What if the heart of Methodist identity is not found primarily in doctrine, polity, or tradition, but in a way of living the gospel that is both deeply rooted and boldly engaged?
This lecture explores the relationship between Wesleyan Vile-tality—the courageous willingness to go wherever God calls for the sake of the gospel—and the Wesleyan Practical Quadrilateral, a framework that emphasizes field preaching, micro-communities, social engagement, and leadership activation as the enduring practices of Methodist renewal.
Drawing from the lives of John Wesley and generations of Methodist witnesses, participants will discover how these complementary concepts offer a practical roadmap for revitalizing the church in the twenty-first century. Rather than preserving Methodism as a historical tradition, this session invites the church to reclaim it as a living movement.

1991 | Run Time: 132 min. | DCP
Directed by Spike Lee
Introduced by Dr. Mikal Gaines (Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences)
Spike Lee’s Jungle Fever explores interracial coupling (specifically the black-white version of it), the devastation of drug use in Black communities, class status both within and outside of race, and gender roles. The film opens with a tribute to Yusef Hawkins, a young Black teen murdered in 1989.
On August 23, 1989, 16-year-old Hawkins went to look for a used car in the Bensonhurst area of Brooklyn, New York with three of his friends. A mob of about 30 youths approached them, most of them carrying bats. However, one was carrying a gun. This mob of mostly white Italian-Americans were angry because one of their girlfriends invited a Black boy to her eighteenth birthday party. Thinking Hawkins and his friends were there for the party, they beat them with bats and shot Hawkins dead.…

Directed by Spike Lee
Introduced by Dr. Charlene Regester (University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill)
Spike Lee’s Malcolm X comes out in 1992 with Warner Bros.

The Emory Cinematheque Presents: Crooklyn
October 7 at 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208
1994 | 115 min. | DCP
Introduced by Dr. Nsenga Burton (Virginia State University) and Professor Dehanza Rogers (Emory University)
“Imagine sitting on the stoop of your Brooklyn brownstone, gossiping with the neighbors while kids play hop-scotch in the street and jump rope on the sidewalk. That's the urban community Spike Lee recreates in Crooklyn, a funny, high-energy movie about Carolyn and Woody Carmichael, and their five kids.” (Network Journal)
Crooklyn is a presumed semi-autobiographical tale of Shelton ‘Spike’ Lee’s family as told through a young girl, presumably his sister Joie Lee who co-wrote it with him along with their brother Cinque Lee. This is the second film in which Lee centers a female protagonist, the first being She’s Gotta Have It. Cinematographer Arthur Jaffa lenses this beautiful film that moves from the idyllic summer days of 1970s Brooklyn to the heat of the Black Virginia south.

Rethinking Stewardship Symposium: Ethics and Creative Problem Solving in Museum Deaccessioning
Art History
The ethics of deaccessioning objects from art museum collections has gained increasing urgency as museums confront tight finances, burgeoning collections, changing collecting priorities and evolving institutional missions that extend beyond collection-centered stewardship to broader community engagement.
Should museums be permitted to deaccession objects? What purpose does deaccessioning serve, and does it strengthen or undermine the long-term value of museums? Should proceeds from the sale of deaccessioned objects be allowed to fund new buildings, support staff or acquire new works? When donor intent conflicts with an institution’s most pressing needs, which should take precedence? How does deaccessioning objects impact the reputations of living artists?
Organized by the Michael C. Carlos Museum and Emory University’s Center for Ethics, this symposium brings together professionals, artists, donors and the public to consider how museums can evolve responsibly while remaining true to their missions and…
