SUMMARY:Ian McEwan's Atonement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Ian McEwan’s Atonement. \n\n\nThis month’s novel is NATIONAL BESTSELLER Ian McEwan’s Atonement. \nA symphonic novel of love and war\, childhood and class\, guilt and forgiveness that provides all the satisfaction of a brilliant narrative and the provocation we have come to expect from the acclaimed Booker Prize–winning\, international bestselling author Ian McEwan. \nOn a hot summer day in 1935\, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis witnesses a moment’s flirtation between her older sister\, Cecilia\, and Robbie Turner\, the son of a servant and Cecilia’s childhood friend. But Briony’ s incomplete grasp of adult motives—together with her precocious literary gifts—brings about a crime that will change all their lives. \n“A beautiful and majestic fictional panorama.” —John Updike\, The New Yorker \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:The Woods - A mixed-reality\, two-player cooperative game
DESCRIPTION:“The Woods” is a mixed-reality\, two-player cooperative game that addresses the perils of social isolation by promoting connections between people and actively engaging them through play. Using  Augmented Reality (AR) and 4-channel audio spatialization panning\, players choreograph their movement in real-world space while interacting with birds\, clouds\, and other objects in virtual space. In pursuit of a shared goal\, players experience an immersive sonic narrative of rumbling storm clouds and disconnected voices that culminate in stories of hope and reconciliation. The design intent behind “The Woods” is to illuminate human connections to others and to celebrate this through collaborative play. \n4pm – 5pm – Experience The Woods (Demo)\nLocation: IDM (Interactive Digital Media) Research Lab\, Plangere Room 135\nRSVP Required for the demo session ONLY.\nFor more info or to RSVP\, contact Wobbe F.

SUMMARY:Roots of Rock ’n’ Roll\, Part II
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Thursdays – Dec. 1\, Dec. 8 & Dec. 15 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nWhen the Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame nominations occur every year\, the debate resumes: just what is rock? Instead of drawing from one genre\, rock ’n’ roll draws from several\, all combining to create a sumptuous gumbo that rapidly captured the world’s imagination. \nPart two of the Roots of Rock ’n’ Roll course – a three-session virtual course taught by Kit O’Toole – continues exploring the foundations of the genre\, this time exploring country\, folk\, and skiffle. How these art forms influenced both American and British artists will be studied in terms of instrumentation\, singing style\, and composition. In addition to multimedia presentations\, class discussion and activities will enable attendees to identify the essential elements of rock. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Budrus
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a World Cinema Series film screening/discussion illuminating the theme “Wartime Lives: Enduring and Transcending Violence and Occupation” by analyzing the message and impact of the film Budrus (Israeli/Palestinian/American\, 2009). \nBudrus is an award-winning feature documentary film about Palestinian community organizer\, Ayed Morrar\, who unites Palestinian political factions and invites Israeli supporters to join an unarmed movement to save his village of Budrus from destruction by Israel’s Separation Barrier. Success eludes them until his 15-year-old daughter\, Iltezam\, launches a women’s contingent that quickly moves to the front lines. Struggling side by side\, father and daughter unleash an inspiring\, yet little-known\, movement in the Occupied Palestinian Territories that is still gaining ground today. \nIn an action-filled documentary chronicling this movement from its infancy\, Budrus shines a light on people who choose nonviolent strategies to confront a threat. The movie is directed by award-winning filmmaker Julia Bacha (co-writer and editor of Control Room and co-director Encounter Point)\, and produced by Bacha\, Palestinian journalist Rula Salameh\, and filmmaker and human rights advocate Ronit Avni (formerly of WITNESS\, Director of Encounter Point). \nThe discussion of the film will be led by Claude Taylor\, Director For Academic Transition And Inclusion and Saliba Sarsar\, Professor in the department of Political Science and Sociology.

SUMMARY:The Hours
DESCRIPTION:The world-premiere staging of Kevin Puts’s The Hours\, adapted from Michael Cunningham’s acclaimed novel\, which also served as the inspiration for the Oscar-winning film\, arrives in cinemas this December. In her highly anticipated return to the Met\, soprano Renée Fleming joins soprano Kelli O’Hara and mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato to portray three women from different eras who grapple with their inner demons and their roles in society. Phelim McDermott\, who recently created the Met’s acclaimed production of Philip Glass’s Akhnaten\, directs this compelling drama\, and Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium to conduct Puts’s powerful score. \n“The Hours contains themes of suicide. If you or someone you know is considering self-harm or suicide\, help is available from the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline by dialing 988 or visiting 988lifeline.org.”

SUMMARY:Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is NATIONAL BESTSELLER Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven. \n\n\nAn audacious\, darkly glittering novel set in the eerie days of civilization’s collapse—the spellbinding story of a Hollywood star\, his would-be savior\, and a nomadic group of actors roaming the scattered outposts of the Great Lakes region\, risking everything for art and humanity. Now an original series on HBO Max. \nKirsten Raymonde will never forget the night Arthur Leander\, the famous Hollywood actor\, had a heart attack on stage during a production of King Lear. That was the night when a devastating flu pandemic arrived in the city\, and within weeks\, civilization as we know it came to an end. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.
