Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd (exhibition)
Libraries
“Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd” explores how the typewriter reshaped storytelling, literature, and art over two centuries. The exhibition brings together diverse works – from a draft of “The Wiz” and a first edition of “Dracula” to protest flyers and Tim Youd’s retyped diptychs – showing the typewriter as a force for creativity, cultural change, and political resistance. Drawing on Rose Library archives and Youd’s art, it traces the typewriter’s impact on the 20th century and beyond. Multiple typewriters from different decades will be on display as well. Youd will give live performances at the typewriter from 1–5 p.m. every Sunday-Friday, Sept. 19 – Oct. 17. The exhibition and the performances are free and open to the public. Live musical performances will be added one day a week in the near future as Youd types; calendar entries will be updated when that happens. Exhibitions dates: Aug. 27 – Dec. 20, 2025. Weekend hours vary; closed on holidays. For details, see…

University Events
Talk Title: Extra-Illustrating Othello
In this talk, Dr. Patricia Akhimie examines the politics and impact of illustration in editions of Shakespeare’s Othello. While Shakespeare’s works are often accompanied by illustrations, many editions of Othello have been “extra-illustrated” with images added after publication. Dr. Akhimie explores how these visual choices—through cropping, captioning, and positioning—shape readers’ interpretations and reveal assumptions about race, gender, and audience.
Focusing on images that perpetuate or resist harmful stereotypes, she considers how fantastical and othered depictions of Blackness and women rehearse some of the play’s most damaging messages, including racist caricature, Black pain, and violence against women. Ultimately, the talk asks: how might illustration not only reinforce but also challenge the play’s highly visual and troubling language around race?
University Event Topic: Lectures & Meetings. School: Emory College. Department / Organization: James Weldon Johnson Institute for the Study of Race and Difference. Speaker/Presenter: Patricia Akhimie is Director of the Folger Institute at the Folger Shakespeare Library and Associate Professor of English at Georgetown University. Event Open To: All (Public).

Film Screening of Landfall directed by Cecilia Aldarondo
University Events
Film Screening of Landfall directed by Cecilia Aldarondo
Hosted by Professor Mariya Vlasova
6:30 PM Humanities 202
Through shard-like glimpses of everyday life in post-Hurricane María Puerto Rico, LANDFALL is a cautionary tale for our times. Set against the backdrop of protests that toppled the US colony's governor in 2019, the film offers a prismatic portrait of collective trauma and resistance. While the devastation of María attracted a great deal of media coverage, the world has paid far less attention to the storm that preceded it: a 72-billion-dollar debt crisis crippling Puerto Rico well before the winds and waters hit. LANDFALL examines the kinship of these two storms-one environmental, the other economic-juxtaposing competing utopian visions of recovery. Featuring intimate encounters with Puerto Ricans as well as the newcomers flooding the island, LANDFALL reflects on a question of contemporary global relevance: when the world falls apart, who do we become?

Carlos Reads: I Am Still With You
Michael C. Carlos Museum
After years of living in New York, author Emmanuel Iduma tells the story of his return to Nigeria. He traveled home with an elusive mission: to learn the fate of his uncle Emmanuel, his namesake, who disappeared in the Nigerian Civil War in the late 1960s. A conflict that left so many families broken, the war remains at the margins of the history books, almost taboo to discuss. To find answers, Iduma stopped in city after city reconnecting with relatives dear and distant, to probe their memories, prowling university libraries to furtively photocopy illicit books, and visiting half-abandoned monuments along the highway. Perhaps, he realized, if he could understand how his father grieved the loss of a brother in the war, he might learn how to grieve his late father in turn.
Led by TK Smith, curator of the Arts of Africa and the Africa Diaspora, participants will discuss Iduma’s story of family history and legacy, and all the questions the dead leave unanswered. How much of his identity is wrapped up in this…

“Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd” explores how the typewriter reshaped storytelling, literature, and art over two centuries. The exhibition brings together diverse works – from a draft of “The Wiz” and a first edition of “Dracula” to protest flyers and Tim Youd’s retyped diptychs – showing the typewriter as a force for creativity, cultural change, and political resistance. Drawing on Rose Library archives and Youd’s art, it traces the typewriter’s impact on the 20th century and beyond. Multiple typewriters from different decades will be on display as well. Youd will give live performances at the typewriter from 1–5 p.m. every Sunday-Friday, Sept. 19 – Oct. 17. The exhibition and the performances are free and open to the public. Live musical performances will be added one day a week in the near future as Youd types; calendar entries will be updated when that happens. Exhibitions dates: Aug. 27 – Dec. 20, 2025.

Fragility of Soft Earth Materials
It is all too clear that Earth is fragile, as human disturbances disrupt the natural cycles that sustain a habitable planet. Earth is also fragile matter: apparently solid soil can suddenly lose rigidity when stressed by rainfall or earthquake shaking; and earth materials exhibit creep, aging and hysteresis. In this talk I consider some existential challenges of living sustainably on a fragile (matter) planet, and advocate for the need of Soft Matter Physics to address these challenges.
To first order, we may consider Soft Earth materials -- and their associated geophysical flows -- to be composed of three ingredients: frictional particles (sand/silt), cohesive particles (clay, fine silt, organic material), and water. In this talk I demonstrate how the origins of complex behaviors of Earth materials arise from these ingredients, with surprises for both geologists and physicists. Experiments show that creep hardens hillslope soils and river beds, that landscapes `breathe' in…

Humanities 201
Memories of a Penitent Heart is an American documentary film that premiered at the 2016 Tribeca Film Festival. Written and directed by Cecilia Aldarondo, the film follows her personal journey to learn more about her late uncle, Miguel Dieppa, an aspiring actor and playwright who died of an AIDS-related illness when she was just six years old, having met him only once. The project began when Aldarondo received a box of old family home videos from her mother, which included rare footage of Miguel. Curious about his life and the circumstances surrounding his death, she began a search for his former partner, known only to her as Robert. She ultimately locates him, now a Roman Catholic priest under the name Father Aquin. Through interviews with Aquin, family members, and friends, Aldarondo unravels a deeply emotional story marked by love, secrecy, and religious conflict, particula…

You Were My First Boyfriend directed by Cecilia Aldarondo
Hosted by Professor Vlasova
1:00 PM - Humanities 202
What if you could rewrite your adolescence? In this high school reunion movie turned inside out, filmmaker Aldarondo embarks on a fantastical quest to reconcile her tortured teen years. She revisits some of her most formative -- and at times cringeworthy -- childhood experiences, tracking down old crushes and reenacting visceral memories of youthful humiliation and desire, at times playing the role of her younger self and casting teenagers to play the kids in her life who still haunt her. Oscillating between present and past, humor and heartbreak, YOU WERE MY FIRST BOYFRIEND is a hybrid documentary that takes seriously the power of adolescence and the way time impacts memories, exploring what it means to grow up and make peace with the drama of our teenage trauma.

“Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd” explores how the typewriter reshaped storytelling, literature, and art over two centuries.

Embodied Creative MachinesHuman creativity is directly linked to embodied interaction with the physical environment. At the Robotic Musicianship Group at Georgia Tech, we explore how embodiment effects and enhances both human and artificial creativity. The talk will present a wide range of robotic projects developed at Georgia Tech Center for Music Technology over the last 20 years, from robotic musicians that compose, improvise, and interact with humans in a variety of musical genres, through robotic dancers that respond to human movement, to prosthetic robotic arms that enable amputees to play musical instruments.

Through real-world examples, such as the tragedy of Mexican workers during Hurricane Helene, the discussion illustrates how climate change disasters serve as moments of intensified borders and vulnerability for those already oppressed by the racial and political structures of settler colonial states. The paper calls for a reimagining of eco-security practices that prioritize human dignity and reduce the exclusion and suffering perpetuated by the current system. Through a feminist approach,…

The Departments of Film and Media and Russian and East Asian Languages and Cultures invite you to a book discussion with Dr. Maria Corrigan (Emerson University). On Friday, September 26 at 12 PM in Rich Memorial 104, the author will discuss her new book, Monuments Askew: An Elliptical History of the Factory of the Eccentric Actor. The book presents a cultural history of the Factory of the Eccentric Actor (FEKS), an avant-garde collective of Ukrainian artists whose unique approach to monumental history generated a new kind of cinema for a modernizing Soviet era. Often lost in the shuffle of this period, FEKS’s vibrant and experimental cinematic output initiated a youthful and cheeky overhaul of Soviet revolutionary culture. Monuments Askew reveals the foundational role of this understudied group of artists—including Grigori Kozintsev and Leonid Trauberg—and uses their own th…

Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd (exhibition)
Libraries
“Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd” explores how the typewriter reshaped storytelling, literature, and art over two centuries. The exhibition brings together diverse works – from a draft of “The Wiz” and a first edition of “Dracula” to protest flyers and Tim Youd’s retyped diptychs – showing the typewriter as a force for creativity, cultural change, and political resistance.

Youd will give live performances at the typewriter from 1–5 p.m. every Sunday-Friday, Sept. 19 – Oct. 17. The exhibition and the performances are free and open to the public.

In this talk, Dr. Khalil Johnson Jr. draws from his forthcoming book Schooled: An Unsettling History of American Education, which traces three centuries of intertwined Indigenous and Afro-diasporic history. Demonstrating how schoolhouses and college campuses became tools of social reproduction for empires and nation-states, Dr. Johnson shows how classical notions of “primitive” Indigeneity shaped European colonization and the transatlantic slave trade, establishing co-constitutive Black and Indigenous histories through schooling.
From the 18th-century founding of Yale College to the Indian Reorganization Act and Brown v. Board of Education, this work examines how schooling institutionalized ruling ideologies while also providing space for contestation and resistance. By centering the experiences of Black and Indigenous people—and highlighting figures such as W.E.B. Du Bois and Zitkala-Ša—Schooled reveals how education played a paradoxical r…

University Events
The good news is Artificial intelligence (AI) won’t replace humans in marketing — the opposite. The digital marketing industry will be worth $1.5 trillion by 2030 and will continue an 8% job growth by 2033 — faster than the average for all occupations. Fueled by new marketing technologies, this is a strong sign that AI will not render humans obsolete but instead complement them. 75% of companies investing in AI plan to create synergistic collaborations known as 'centaur teams.' These teams are already unleashing marketers to focus on creativity, critical thinking, and decision-making, while AI handles tasks like data processing and pattern recognition. Marketers who add AI skills can capitalize on these career opportunities, potentially earning 25% more. AI has reshaped marketing — improving collaboration, enhancing workflows, personalizing customer experiences, yielding better data insights, and increasing ROI. This free webinar will focus on key strategies to help position marketers to become indispensable…

Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd (exhibition)

“Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd” explores how the typewriter reshaped storytelling, literature, and art over two centuries.

Drawing on Rose Library archives and Youd’s art, it traces the typewriter’s impact on the 20th century and beyond. Multiple typewriters from different decades will be on display as well. Youd will give live performances at the typewriter from 1–5 p.m. every Sunday-Friday, Sept. 19 – Oct. 17. The exhibition and the performances are free and open to the public.

University Events
Cholera is a severe diarrheal disease caused by V. cholerae, estimated to cause up to 143,000 deaths each year. The transmission of Cholera is known to be impacted by seasonal dynamics and has been highlighted as a climate-sensitive disease by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Populations in informal settlements are experiencing high growth rates and are highly vulnerable to Cholera. We examined the variation in Cholera exposure to two populations in informal settlements in Nairobi, Kenya, using a combination of environmental microbiology to quantify V. cholerae presence across environmental pathways, and surveys to quantify human-environment contact rates. We quantify the change in pathogen exposure and the change in dominant pathways as the season changes. In doing so, we provide a holistic assessment of seasonal change in the environmental exposure to V. cholerae in these vulnerable populations.

JWJI Colloquium featuring Mayukh Sen
University Events
Talk Title: Becoming Hollywood’s First South Asian Star: Merle Oberon and the Legal Fiction of Race in 20th Century America
In this talk, Mayukh Sen examines the life and career of Merle Oberon (1911–1979), the first South Asian performer to receive an Academy Award nomination. Oberon, born to a Sri Lankan mother and white father in India, navigated Hollywood by “passing” as white at the urging of her publicists and under the constraints of Hollywood’s racial prescriptions. This performance of identity enabled her iconic role in Wuthering Heights (1939) but also revealed the structural barriers that South Asian immigrants faced in the United States, including immigration laws and citizenship restrictions based on race.
Drawing from his forthcoming biography Love, Queenie (W.W. Norton & Company, 2025), Sen situates Oberon’s story within the broader context of immigration, race, gender, and power in 20th-century America. Through archival research and interviews with Oberon’s family, he uncovers a counter-na…

Lecture by Dr. Madhavi Menon- Love in the Moonlight: Sufism, Sexuality, Shakespeare
University Events
October 8, 4:30-6 pm, White Hall 102 | Lecture by Dr. Madhavi Menon
"Love in the Moonlight: Sufism, Sexuality, Shakespeare"
There would be no Shakespeare without Sufism. The radical ideas about desire and sexuality that we encounter in his work emerge out of a conversation, not with Renaissance humanism, but with Sufism. Indeed, many of these ideas are not to be found anywhere other than in Sufi poetry. Both sets of texts operate under the sign of the moon – aroused in the dark, changing shape. And while a “Sufi Shakespeare” is not a historically verifiable fact – Shakespeare probably did not read Sufi texts before writing about the enmity of two clans in Romeo and Juliet – both Sufi and Shakespearean texts explore strikingly similar questions about poetry and desire. These ideas – from friendship to cross-dressing, and from desire to the death drive – come from realms other than Renaissance England and anticipate much of what passes now as queer theory. Ranging across questions of sexual orientation and gend…

Artist Talk: Gonçalo Mabunda
Art History
Join artist Gonçalo Mabunda (Mozambique) for an artist talk about his work that explores the collective memory of his country and its transition from war to the absence of violence and ultimately to peace. Gonçalo was commissioned to transform weapons of war such as AK47s, rocket launchers, and pistols into objects of beauty which were used in Mozambique’s truth and reconciliation journey. His method of choice was and remains anthropomorphization of weapons to channel the multiplicity of human feelings released by the peace process. Gonçalo’s thrones and sculptures are held in many major museums and institutions across the globe.
This talk is presented in conjunction with the exhibition Peace, Reconciliation and the Potential for Transformation, at aKAZ!ATL opening October 5, 2025, and Insistent Presence: Contemporary African Art from the Chazen Collection at the Carlos Museum, on view September 13 - December 14, 2025.

Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd (exhibition)

“Striking Characters: Typewriters, Literary Worlds, and the Art of Tim Youd” explores how the typewriter reshaped storytelling, literature, and art over two centuries. The exhibition brings together diverse works – from a draft of “The Wiz” and a first edition of “Dracula” to protest flyers and Tim Youd’s retyped diptychs – showing the typewriter as a force for creativity, cultural change, and political resistance. Drawing on Rose Library archives and Youd’s art, it traces the typewriter’s impact on the 20th century and beyond. Multiple typewriters from different decades will be on display as well. Youd will give live performances at the typewriter from 1–5 p.m. every Sunday-Friday, Sept. 19 – Oct. 17. The exhibition and the performances are free and open to the public.

Workshop on "Thinking Across Borders: Scholarship as Means of Public Engagement"
This workshop with Professors Madhavi Menon and Jonathan Gil Harris, moderated by WGSS graduate student, Shiv Datt Sharma, will follow an interactive discussion on the importance of comparative scholarly work, as well as of writing for a generalist audience. What does it mean to bring high-literary texts (such as Shakespeare’s) from ‘the West’ in conversation with popular cultural forms in India, such as Bollywood cinema? What happens when western scholarly frameworks (such as queer theory) travels outside of its context to, say, South Asia? How to think about scholarship as a publicly engaged practice? How can we communicate complex theoretical ideas to a generalist audience? Conversational in format, the workshop will address questions such as these that are pertinent to thinking about the creative and cultural role of academics, drawing upon rich experi…

Lecture by Dr. Jonathan Gil Harris- The Jewish Silk Roads: How to Weave a Central Asian Carpet
University Events
October 9, 4:00-5:30 pm, Atwood 360 | Lecture by Dr. Jonathan Gil Harris
"The Jewish Silk Roads: How to Weave a Central Asian Carpet"
Professor Harris' mother was a life-long devotee of the colorful “Persian rugs” she encountered in the bazaar of Uzgen, where she lived for five years during World War II. Later in life, she would twice buy carpets that emulated their shades. But she never realized that the Turkic and Persian names of their distinctive patterns pointed to a cultural confluence that was typical of the region– or that Jews were part of that confluence. Languages too might be seen as carpets; the intricately woven base upon which we conduct our everyday business, they interlink diverse elements from multiple places and makers.
Drawing upon personal narrative and cultural history, this talk thinks about how we recline comfortably on our languages as much as we do on our carpets, often oblivious to the surprisingly diverse hands– and tongues– that have contributed to their making. Professor Harris'…

Visual Arts
The Emory Visual Arts Gallery is pleased to present Quick Split, an exhibition of paintings by Brooklyn-based artist Lindsay Burke.
Free exhibit, open to public
Burke’s paintings approach the human body as both image and structure, a ground where personal, cultural, and formal questions converge. Her work moves between the poetic and the schematic, presenting the figure as something at once familiar and estranged.
Referencing art history, industrial design, and architectural drawing, Burke places the body in a constant state of negotiation. Forms slip between abstraction and representation, echoing the ways identity is assembled, performed, and dissolved. Figures often appear on the edge of transformation—mechanical and organic, vulnerable and resilient—framing the body as a site of emotional intensity, political tension, and imaginative possibility.
Surface and structure hold equal weight in her practice. Expansive painterly passages give way to exacting line, underscoring the instability of perception. Fe…
