SUMMARY:Gaining New Minds: The Power of Cross-disciplinary collaboration
DESCRIPTION:Both academia and industry prize specialization\, but what’s lost when our creative world becomes too narrow? In this talk\, Alyse Knorr explores the importance of interdisciplinary artistic collaboration and curiosity\, drawing on her own experiences working with composers\, painters\, and singers that have resulted in a Carnegie Hall premiere\, a public mural at the Harlem Public Library\, and re-creations of 2\,500-year-old archaic Greek songs. Ultimately\, learning from the ways others approach material and method makes any artist become more inventive in their own craft\, more confident in their own practice\, and more holistic in their thinking. \n\n\n\nAlyse Knorr is an associate professor of English at Regis University and co-editor of Switchback Books. She is the author of the poetry collections Wolf Tours (2024); Ardor (2023)\, a Lambda Literary Award finalist; Mega-City Redux (2017); Copper Mother (2016); and Annotated Glass (2013). She also authored the video game history books GoldenEye (2022) and Super Mario Bros. 3 (2016) and four poetry chapbooks. Her work has appeared in The New Republic\, POETRY Magazine\, Alaska Quarterly Review\, Denver Quarterly\, and The Georgia Review\, among others. She received her MFA from George Mason University.

Bolton\, historian\, professor\, and author of the recently published Home Front Battles: World War II Mobilization and Race in the Deep South (Oxford University Press). Bolton’s book explores the role of race in World War II mobilization in the Deep South\, where the needs of wartime industries and bases inflamed tensions around labor\, land\, and military service.

SUMMARY:Sheryl Oring's I Wish to Say National Tour
DESCRIPTION:September 17\, 3-4pm at Taylor Garden Fountain (near EUC) \nTwenty years ago\, artist Sheryl Oring embarked on a mission with a simple yet profound tool: a manual typewriter. Her project\, I Wish to Say\, invited people to express their thoughts directly to the U.S. president. Oring\, dressed as a 1960s secretary\, created a public office where she typed participants’ messages verbatim onto postcards. Each original was sent to the White House\, while a carbon copy was preserved for her archive. \nTo date\, Oring has typed 4\,314 postcards across hundreds of locations in the United States\, from parks and town squares to college campuses and festivals. This fall she is visiting university campuses\, parks\, and libraries across the country to encourage civic participation in this critical election. Oring\, formerly a professor in the UNCG School of Art\, will be on the UNCG campus during Hispanic Heritage Month. Join her in this powerful act of civic engagement\, and make your voice heard!
