Reciprocity & Redistribution in Social Movement-Led Research | Humanities Without Walls (HWW) - University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

A couple of weeks ago I had the privilege of sitting down with Dr. Nadine Naber and asking her a few questions about her Humanities Without Walls research project. It was so encouraging to hear about her workβ€”I wish I could have shared our whole conversation, but these are the highlights!

Der IGEL!

Lothar Meggendorfer really knew how to evoke lifelike movement! This book from the Olin Library special collections at Wash U is only one spectacular example! #movablebooksociety

Indiana public colleges cut almost 20% of degrees Public Indiana colleges and universities have eliminated 19 percent of their degree programs to meet requirements added to the state’s budget, according to the Commission for Higher Education.

So, here it is. Thanks to a new state law that was NEVER DEBATED, Indiana University has committed itself to abolishing majors in African-American/African Diaspora Studies: American Studies; Art History; French; Italian; Religious Studies etc. DOZENS of majors. www.ipm.org/news-section...

My Tony opinions are based only on the short clips that have made it to insta/tik tok but I’m so thrilled to see big wins for Maybe Happy Ending (and maybe one day I’ll see it person)

A poster for the economic blackout on February 28. It is a big red Jack rabbit on an aqua blue back ground. It says economic blackout in hand done black type. There are two black speech bubbles. One says β€œdon’t buy stuff Friday February 28th. The other says we have power. Below it says No Amazon, Walmart, target, gas food, gas. Below that it says OK small business, use cash. Designed by Martha Rich.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

OUR MISSING HEARTS is not a dystopia, example #976. (When I wrote it, I worried that making up a law called "Protecting American Culture and Traditions" would be unbelievable. I don't worry that anymore.)

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

A fragmentary clay tablet with broken lines of text preserved. At the bottom is a multicoloured ruler showing that it is about 7cm wide. On a blank portion is written in ink upside down β€œK. 5968” and right-side up β€œk 9334”, meaning that these are two different fragments joined together to make a fragmentary whole.

I’ve spent most of my life steeped in anxiety, and one thing that made me feel less alone was knowing how unsurprisingly not new anxiety and related experiences are.

It’s in fragments, but this is one of many clay texts from ancient Mesopotamia that describes anxiety (possibly depression)

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, β€œI’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

Wish more people realised that for most art businesses, there's only one person doing all the work. Creating, shipping, admin, promotion, starting feuds with other artists, painting unflattering portraits of them into historical scenes, trying to poison them, it's all one person.

Maybe it’s because I grew up in the south but I think everything should be cancelled when it snows (mostly because I become incapable of doing anything but sitting by a window and watching it fall) (also because I can’t drive in it)

Grant writing! Art history skills like attention to detail, writing for super specific audiences, and working collaboratively are all really valuable here

I was on a run and some man stopped me to say he liked my Elon University shirt and at first he was so excited to learn it’s a real placeβ€”until he found out it’s a small liberal arts school and not a β€œuniversity celebrating Elon Musk” like he was hoping

The series follows a self-aware AI who hacked itself and has to learn to deal with the unfortunate reality of caring about things and having emotions. Its favorite coping mechanisms are snark, musicals, and consuming media that can only be described as unrealistic and inaccurate. Like, same.

I’ve been reading the Murderbot series by Martha Wells and omg 10/10 writing (imagine if Holst’s The Planets were books) and 12/10 in relatabilityβ€”on both personal and general stage of the world in an age of disinformation and late stage capitalism levels
