Rob Rhee – Tenure + Promotion Talk
As part of the Division of Art’s promotion and tenure process, IVA Assistant Professor Rob Rhee will present his ongoing research on bricolage as a creative practice and its agricultural connections.
Rhee has been working with plant biologists at UW, the Frank Lab at Cornell, and the UW Farm on a project that uses grafting as a sculptural process for creating live plant collage. Inspired by the phenomenon of inosculation, a natural form of grafting in which neighboring trees of different species will sometimes grow into each other, Rhee’s attempts to recreate this phenomenon on the farm attend to the resilience and receptivity of plants, adaptive responses to their essential rootedness (sessile).
Rhee will share this recent project alongside a series of essays and 3D models, Corpus, inspired by recent interpretations of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein in film, literature and performance. This new project focuses on the existential dilemmas around embodiment, cognition, and scientific responsibility embedded i…

WORKSHOP|Dangerous Subjects: Immigration Bureaucracy as a Game
In this work-in-progress, Juan Llamas-Rodriguez (Annenberg School for Communication, University of Pennsylvania) investigates the complexity and opacity of immigration policy and bureaucracy as game-like structures. Llamas-Rodriguez analyzes The Green Card Game, a browser-based game that simulates the avenues available to achieve permanent residence status in the United States, to argue against the reactionary talking point that it is easy or simple for potential migrants to “immigrate the right way.” In contrast to most other migration games, The Green Card Game is not concerned with building sympathy for migrants but with critiquing the purposely obtuse and nearly intractable system of U.S. immigration. What are the affordances and limitations to this approach towards gaming immigration bureaucracy? How do the game’s mechanics and intended rhetoric contend with the mundaneness of paperwork itself? Through a detailed examination of this case study, Llamas-Rodriguez explores what it means to model bureaucrac…

Free and open to the public. Registration required.
In April 2023, fighting broke out in Sudan between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces. In the ongoing conflict, thousands have been killed, millions displaced, and millions more require urgent humanitarian assistance. In the midst of it all, another element has become a focal part of this trauma: the media. In this talk, Dr. Christopher Tounsel (University of Washington) will discuss the war's historical background, address why Western media has been comparatively silent in its coverage, and show how one community’s response to the conflict sheds light on the intersections of race, media, and the African Diaspora.
Christopher Tounsel is Director of African Studies and associate professor of history at the University of Washington. An historian of the Sudan, Tounsel is the author of Chosen Peoples: Christianity and Political Imagination in South Sudan and Bounds of Blackness: African Americans, Sudan, and the Politics of Solidarity.…

Since 2013, more than 5 billion sea stars have perished from “sea star wasting,” a mysterious disease that has devastated the iconic sunflower sea star and triggered cascading ecosystem impacts. With sunflower stars gone, purple sea urchins—unchecked grazers of kelp—exploded in number, leading to 90% declines in kelp forests, a critical temperate-zone habitat. At the University of Washington’s Friday Harbor Labs, Dr. Drew Harvell’s team has led groundbreaking research to uncover the cause of sea star wasting, work highlighted in The New York Times, while Dr. Jason Hodin’s team has successfully reared hundreds of sunflower stars in captivity, efforts featured on NBC’s Wild Kingdom. Together, they raise vital questions: what resources and talent are needed to sustain such research, what is the cost to our marine ecosystems if it falters, and what happens when funding is cut or international collaboration is blocked?

'Reading Law: Legal Knowledge and the Making of Justice in Chosŏn Korea' with Jungwon Kim, Columbia University
This talk examines how legal knowledge shaped the making of justice in Chosŏn Korea, focusing on the pivotal role of legal officers in judicial practice. Unlike Confucian scholar-officials, the state cultivated specialists who passed examinations and were dispatched to assist local governors, marking a distinct form of legal expertise. Drawing on rich archival materials—including law books, trial reports, and state evaluations—the talk shows how the state both relied on specialized expertise and persistently sought to constrain and regulate it within the bounds of justice and political order. Reconstructing how legal specialists trained and operated, it reveals the intricacies of law in Chosŏn society and how evolving expertise and legal literacy shaped judicial decisions at the local level while informing broader conceptions of justice. Jungwon Kim is the King Sejong Assistant Professor of Korean Studies at Columbia University. Her research focuses on the gender and legal history of premodern Korea, with…

October 10: 9am - 3pm
October 11: 10:30am - 1pm
Literary modernity did not always appear in book form, but as a periodical! Throughout the 20th century, literary and cultural production across much of Central, Western, and South Asia reached readers through the pages of periodicals. These periodicals–newspapers, magazines, and journals–housed a variety of literary forms ranging from serialized novels, to poetry, to short stories, alongside advertisements, comics, and photography. This symposium features emerging literary scholarship that investigates short form fiction as it appears in the rhizomatic 20th century periodical, and its intersections with translation and gender. How does fiction move across and between languages in 20th century periodical cultures of Eurasia? What does an explicit and intentional consideration of gender in these translingual (and frequently transnational, or transhistorical) literary movements illuminate? In exploring such questions, this symposium foregrounds gender,…

Film Screening | Farming the Revolution

Please join the South Asia Center and Tasveer Film Festival for a screening and discussion of Farming the Revolution (1hr 45min, India, 2024, Nishtha Jain).
In November 2020, Gurbaz Sangha, a young farmer from Punjab, embarked on a remarkable journey. Riding his tractor for 400 kilometres to Delhi, he joined forces with thousands, and later more than half a million, men and women from diverse backgrounds. Their united mission: to stand against the newly enacted Farm Laws, despite widespread opposition. Amid a COVID lockdown, these farmers-representing over half of India's workforce-vowed to remain at the borders until the laws were repealed. In this parallel world, they redefined co-existence, with women emerging as equal political partners rather than mere supporting characters. Day after day, the protesters showcased India's pluralistic, defiant and resilient spirit-often overlooked by the media. As the movement gained momentum, farmers across the country…

Hyp J. Dauben, Jr. Endowed Lecture in Organic Chemistry
"Genome Mining for New Chemistry"
Professor Wilfred A. van der Donk - Department of Chemistry and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
Host: Lauren Rajakovich
The genome sequencing efforts of the past 20 years have revealed that ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) constitute a large class of peptide natural products. These molecules are produced in all three domains of life, their biosynthetic genes are ubiquitous in the currently sequenced genomes, and their structural diversity is vast. Furthermore, they are increasingly recognized for their involvement in fighting or causing human disease. This lecture will discuss the use of genome mining and synthetic biology for the discovery of new RiPPs that has also proven to be an excellent platform to discover new chemistry involved in their biosynthesis.1-3

Please join the Stroum Center for Jewish Studies as we celebrate the recent publication of Hazel D. Cole Fellow Gilah Kletenik’s new book, "Sovereignty Disrupted: Spinoza and the Disparity of Reality."
In it, Kletenik takes a dazzlingly fresh reading of Spinoza’s Ethics, thinking with Spinoza to present an alternative to dominant “Western” theories about the nature of reality, the promise of reason, and the status of humans.
Kletenik will be joined by Stroum Center Director Noam Pianko to discuss the book, share how Jewish philosophy can be applied in this moment, and answer questions. Light refreshments will be provided before the talk and the book will be available for purchase.
"It is rare to find a thorough and compelling reading of a great philosophical classic, Spinoza's Ethics, that upends some of the central presumptions about sovereignty that have populated standard readings for many years. Kletenik shows that sovereign rule functions neither as a political form nor as a model of conceptual maste…

This event brings together colleagues and students for a collective celebration of the ghazal, a poetic form that has flourished in Arabic, Persian, Turkish, Urdu, and many other languages.

By foregrounding oral recitation and the experience of listening across languages, the gathering highlights the ghazal’s role as a transregional and transhistorical form of poetic expression. Together, we will reflect on the pleasures of sound, the challenges of translation, and the enduring vitality of the ghazal across literary traditions.

From a distance nearly all of us misunderstand pilgrimage. Influenced by movies, memoirs, and travel influencers we tend to think of the practice as a personal reboot, a self-imposed extended, sweaty therapy session that leads to the authentic and better self. Alternatively, we conjure notions of stoic devotees preserving ancient traditions. But in Mexico a small subset of Catholics numbering the millions embrace pilgrimage as a lifelong practice knit into the complexities of their hectic modern lives. Why and how do they sustain this mode to religious devotion at considerable cost and effort? Why does pilgrimage endure, and why is it experiencing something of a renaissance? Edward Wright-Rios (Professor of History, Vanderbilt University) will explore these questions in his talk.
