SUMMARY:TAJ MAHAL - Livestream
DESCRIPTION:Composer\, multi-instrumentalist\, vocalist\, multi-GRAMMY® winner\, multi-Blues Music Award winner\, Blues Hall of Fame member and Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement award recipient TAJ MAHAL streaming LIVE to the comforts of your own home from the UC Theatre stage in Berkeley\, CA.  This will be Taj’s first ever livestream performance! \nTaj is a towering musical figure — a legend who transcended the blues not by leaving them behind\, but by revealing their magnificent scope to the world. Quantifying the 77- year-old’s significance is impossible\, but people try anyway. A 2017 Grammy win for TajMo\, Taj’s collaboration with Keb’ Mo’\, brought his Grammy tally to three wins and 14 nominations\, and underscored his undiminished relevance more than 50 years after his solo debut. Blues Hall of Fame membership\, a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Americana Music Association\, and other honors punctuate his résumé. Taj appreciates the accolades\, but his motivation lies elsewhere. “I just want to be able to make the music that I’m hearing come to me — and that’s what I did\,” Taj says. “When I say\, ‘I did\,’ I’m not coming from the ego. The music comes from somewhere. You’re just the conduit it comes through. You’re there to receive the gift.”

SUMMARY:The Interface Between Marine Biology and Creative Microscopic Inhabitants of the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Before the advent of microscopic photography\, it fell to the varying artistic skills of scientists to show the world what the invisible plants and animals in our oceans looked like. One of the most prolific and talented was Ernst Haeckel\, an 1800s German zoologist and marine biologist whose groundbreaking sketches of organisms such as zooplankton\, diatoms and copepods continue to capture the imagination of science enthusiasts and artists to this day. Count among them Monmouth University Professor Pat Cresson\, who recently created over 50 works highlighting both microscopic marine organisms and larger sea creatures. \nCresson will present her collection\, The Interface Between Marine Biology and Creative Microscopic Inhabitants of the Sea\, in a free public webinar on Nov. 18. The session is being offered as part of the Department of History & Anthropology’s Research and Teaching Pedagogy Seminar Series \nIn an interesting twist\, Cresson’s focus on the deep sea started with the CDC. In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic\, Cresson was struck by the aesthetic beauty of models showing the virus and began investigating what other infectious diseases looked like. This research eventually shifted to imagery depicting the unicellular and microscopic life forms that are abundant in our waters\, as Haeckel had famously done before. \n“Art and science are very similar in some perspectives\,” Cresson said. “Both science and art are human attempts to understand and describe the world around us. The subjects and methods have different traditions\, and the intended audiences are different\, but I think the motivations and goals are fundamentally the same.” \nCresson’s first works in the collection were detailed black ink drawings on heavy white watercolor paper. She then began creating a series of illustrations on deep wood panels that were covered with glued drawings on paper. Then an epoxy surface was poured over these panels\, sometimes stained blue or green giving the appearance that they were submerged under water. She also created several collages on paper adhered to wood panels depicting ocean scenes. (Scroll to gallery below to view samples of her works.) Materials for the project were purchased through a faculty enrichment grant awarded via the Urban Coast Institute’s Heidi Lynn Sculthorpe Scholars program. \nBuilding upon her work\, Cresson assigned her Advanced Digital Imaging class to create first traditional collages (cut paper and materials) and then digital collages focused on marine ecosystems. Some of the student works will also be presented in the upcoming webinar. \n“I gave them different ideas – the food web\, symbiotic relationships\, the role of light in the ocean\, the health of the ocean and warming oceans\, corals reefs and how they’re being bleached out\,” she said. “They came up with some really interesting imagery. I was very happy with what they came up with.”

SUMMARY:Bhopal: A Prayer for Rain - VIRTUAL PANEL DISCUSSION
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a World Cinema Series zoom discussion illuminating the theme “A Delicate Balance: Global Communities and the Natural World” by analyzing the message and impact of Ravi Kumar’s 2014 docudrama\, Bhopal: A Prayer for Rain. Released on the 30th anniversary of the Union Carbide disaster in Bhopal\, India on December 2-3\, 1984\, the film analyses the causes of the chemical leak and vapor spread that killed as many as 10\,000 people in Bhopal and the responsibility of the Union Carbide corporate leadership\, its local operatives in Bhopal\, and the complicity of local officials in creating the conditions that led to the environmental catastrophe\, their efforts to avoid accountability\, and the legacy of the disaster.

The discussion of the film will be led by Dr. Datta Naik\, Professor of Chemistry\, and Dr. Marina Vujnovic\, Associate Professor of Communication\, and a specialist on global communications. \nThe film is available for streaming on a number of platforms including Vudu\, Amazon Prime Video\, YouTube\, Google Play Movies and TV\, or iTunes (for rent or purchase). \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:History of Motown
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Thursdays –  January 28\, February 4 and February 11 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nIn 1959\, a young songwriter named Berry Gordy started a record company with an $800 loan from his family.
