SUMMARY:Talk: Category Accounts: Identity and Normativity in Sequences of Action
DESCRIPTION:This study investigates the sequentially occasioned provision of what I term ‘category accounts’ in interaction. Category accounts tap into and make use of normative assumptions about identities and membership categories in order to explain away moments of what the participants view as category deviance. To introduce this concept\, I focus on sequences in which speakers’ initiations of repair (e.g.\, Huh?) are oriented to as indicative of a problem of understanding. In the cases examined here\, recipients of such initiations of repair treat divergence from some gender/sexuality norm as the source of the misunderstanding\, which is revealed through their attempt to resolve the trouble by providing a category account\, thereby closing the repair sequence and providing for the resumption of progressivity. These and similar accounting sequences are thus a means through which participants collaboratively normalize momentary departures from normativity\, while at the same time reconstituting what exactly constitutes ‘normativity’ and ‘departures therefrom’\, and for whom. \nChase Wesley Raymond holds PhDs in Hispanic Linguistics (2014) and Sociology (2016)\, both from UCLA\, and is currently Assistant Professor of Linguistics at the University of Colorado\, Boulder. His research interests lie at the intersection of language and (different facets of) social identity and normativity\, in both ordinary and institutional interaction. Recent and forthcoming publications include articles in Language\, Research on Language & Social Interaction\, Language in Society\, and the Journal of Sociolinguistics. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Language\, Interaction and Social Organization (LISO) Research Focus Group and Department of Sociology

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: The Raw and the Husky: Vocal Qualia and Gender Politics in Post-Millennium Tamil Cinema
DESCRIPTION:This talk will examine the reorganization of singing voices and vocal aesthetics in the music of Tamil cinema\, contrasting the ideals for male and female voices from the 1960s and 1970s with new ideals that have emerged since the 1990s in the wake of India’s economic and cultural liberalization. Based on ethnographic research among playback singers\, music directors\, and sound engineers in the Tamil film industry\, the talk will show how two now salient aesthetics of vocal sound\, “husky” and “raw\,” index different\, and distinctly gendered\, orientations to Tamil ethnolinguistic belonging and claims to global cosmopolitanism in the post-Liberalization context. In doing so\, the talk will explore the structures of voicing that are afforded by particular ways of cultivating the sonic/material voice. \nAmanda Weidman\, Associate Professor of Anthropology at Bryn Mawr College\, is a cultural anthropologist with interests in music\, sound\, media\, performance\, linguistic anthropology\, semiotics\, and technological mediation. Within South Asia her research focuses on Tamil-speaking South India. Her publications include Singing the Classical\, Voicing the Modern: The Postcolonial Politics of Music in South India. She is currently at work on a second book project on playback singing in Indian cinema\, a system where singers’ voices are first recorded in the studio and then “played back” on the set to be matched with actors’ bodies and visual images in song sequences. \nSponsored by the UCSB Music History and Theory Forum and Ethnomusicology Forum\, Department of Film and Media Studies\, Center for the Interdisciplinary Study of Music\, and IHC South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group

In this two-day interdisciplinary symposium commemorating Cavell’s career\, UCSB faculty from across the campus invite Cavell scholars from Europe and America to join in a discussion of his extraordinary contributions to our understanding of the affective dimensions of democratic life\, particularly as these play out in film\, religion\, and what Cavell terms Emersonian Perfectionism. \nThe first day (Thursday February 14)\, which will focus on Cavell and Film\, will conclude with a screening at UCSB’s Carsey-Wolf Center of the Hollywood classic The Lady Eve and an accompanying Q&A. The second day (Friday February 15) will focus on Cavell and Religion and Philosophy. \nFor conference schedule and details please visit https://hscif.org/democratic-affections/ \nFor the screening event please visit https://www.carseywolf.ucsb.edu/pollock-events/ladyeve/ \nThe Cavell Symposium is co-sponsored by The Center for Humanities & Social Change\, the College of Letters and Science\, the Graduate Center for Literary Research\, the Department of Philosophy\, the Carsey Wolf Center\, the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center\, the Literature and the Mind Program\, the Departments of Religious Studies\, of Political Science\, Film and Media Studies\, French and Italian\, and the Comparative Literature Program.

SUMMARY:Social Securities Talk: Teaching the People: Enlightenment and the American Republic
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, David Marshall will illuminate contemporary debates about the value of the liberal arts and sciences and public investment in higher education by examining Enlightenment arguments for both liberal education and public education in the early American Republic\, and the 19th-century Land Grant movement\, which resulted in the establishment of the University of California as a “public trust” in the California State Constitution. These two Enlightenment moments resonate today as we try to make the case for accessibility\, the liberal arts\, and the public research university in the face of privatization and pressure to focus on vocational and pre-professional training\, and applied research. \nDavid Marshall is Professor of English and Comparative Literature at UC Santa Barbara\, where he serves as Executive Vice Chancellor.  His research focuses on eighteenth-century fiction\, aesthetics\, and moral philosophy. Past President of the National Humanities Alliance\, which advances national humanities policy in the areas of research\, education\, preservation\, and public programs\, David Marshall has lectured widely on issues in higher education and public education. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Social Securities series and the Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment

SUMMARY:Research Focus Group Talk: Photography as Embodiment? Questions of Representation and Duplication in the Cult of Sai Baba of Shirdi
DESCRIPTION:Portraits of Sai Baba of Shirdi (late 1830s–1918) are everywhere to be seen in public space in Mumbai. Are these images sacred? According to the saint himself\, historical exponents of his teachings\, and many ordinary Mumbai residents\, the answer is “Yes.” What does it mean to encounter divine power in a mass-reproduced image? Drawing on material from his just-released book\, The Neighborhood of Gods: The Sacred and the Visible at the Margins of Mumbai (University of Chicago Press\, December 2018)\, William Elison’s talk will trace rival logics in the cult of the saintly icon across three historical junctures. \nWilliam Elison is an Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at UCSB who specializes in modern Indian religious practices and visual culture. In addition to his ethnography of Mumbai\, The Neighborhood of Gods\, he is the coauthor of “Amar Akbar Anthony”: Bollywood\, Brotherhood\, and the Nation. \nSponsored by the IHC’s South Asian Religions and Cultures Research Focus Group and the Department of Religious Studies

SUMMARY:Social Securities Talk: Environmental Justice as Freedom
DESCRIPTION:This talk argues that environmental justice movements are freedom struggles. Beginning with the starting point that unjust environments are rooted in racism\, capitalism\, militarism\, colonialism\, land theft from Native peoples\, and gender violence\, the talk frames environmental justice as particularly significant in the moment of danger that we are currently facing. It is drawn from a forthcoming book that examines activism at Standing Rock\, in Flint and the Central Valley\, and in the wake of Hurricanes Katrina and Maria. \nJulie Sze is Professor of American Studies at UC Davis. She is also the founding director of the Environmental Justice Project for UC Davis’ John Muir Institute for the Environment. Sze’s research investigates environmental justice and environmental inequality; culture and environment; race\, gender and power; and urban/community health and activism. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Social Securities series and the Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment
