A simple, gracefully bold set-up to allow Loïc to trace connections: of comments upon comments upon comments, of sounds next to sounds next to sounds.
A landmark film on black life – a poetic filmic constellation of meditations, fragments and interviews on what it means to be black in America in the 21st century, from one of its great cinematographers.
Jean-Luc Guionnet will be giving a talk as part of the music department’s ongoing series of colloquia.
4 days of workshops, discussions and artists presentations exploring the radical act of caring for each other while working to change the world.
