Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
Nina’s going to talk about November, by Hito Steyerl: what and how the film thinks, or about what and how it might makes us think (which is connected, but not the same thing), by watching, and it discussing (with you?).
