Woven fabrics will be the focus of this class: denim (with limited or no stretch), cotton, flannel or linen button-down shirts, lightweight bags or totes. No special sewing skills are needed.

Fabric remnants, scraps, needles, and embroidery floss will be provided.</div><div><br></div><div>Registration required via this Google form: <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdyGeF3xXlz5SI-67J3zW3fGOGIwhhD5pLxbWPtd0FtpU_PVw/viewform" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdyGeF3xXlz5SI-67J3zW3fGOGIwhhD5pLxbWPtd0FtpU_PVw/viewform</a></div><div><br></div><div>This workshop is free and open to the public.</div>

Dunkerley Dialogue with Yvette Molina and Adam Tinkle
Time: 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM
Tang Teaching Museum Payne: Join us Thursday, March 21, at 6 pm, for a Dunkerley Dialogue with artist Yvette Molina, whose work is on view in the exhibition Yvette Molina: A Promise to the Leaves, and Adam Tinkle, Associate Professor of Media and Film Studies and Director of the John B. Moore Documentary Studies Collaborative (MDOCS).<div><br></div><div>Dunkerley Dialogues pair Skidmore professors with artists in a conversation format, which is often a catalyst for new connections and understandings across disciplines, and can spark new ideas for all participants. Dunkerley Dialogues are made possible by a generous gift from Michele Dunkerley ’80.</div><div><br></div><div>This event is free and open to the public. The program will include ASL interpretation by Liz Beauregard.</div><div><br></div><div>About the Speakers</div><div>Yvette Molina is a Mexican-American artist focused on the relationship between justice and care. Her work, often emanating from her community engagement and activism, incorporates processional banners, ritual, storytelling, costumes, collage, painting, and sculpture. Molina has exhibited across the United States and internationally, including at the Stockholm Fringe Festival, the Brattleboro Museum and Art Center, the Visual Arts Center of New Jersey, Arsenal Contemporary Art, SPRING/BREAK Art Show, NADA FAIR, and the Legion of Honor and de Young Museums of California. Molina lives in Oakland, California.</div><div><br></div><div>Adam Tinkle is Associate Professor of Media and Film, and Director of the John B. Moore Documentary Studies Collaborative (MDOCS), and a multidisciplinary artist focused on sound, video, collaborations, and the deployment of technologies of sensation and spectacle in negotiation with bodies and infrastructures. After studies in music with avant-garde legends Anthony Braxton, Alvin Lucier, Anthony Davis, and Pauline Oliveros, Adam’s soundworks have taken disparate forms, from sound sculptures to song cycles to music-theater to the “SoundMind” series of sonic mindfulness workshops he led on the Tang’s mezzanine between 2016 and 2019. His “visual music” practice, which reimagines expressive uses for antique TV equipment, yields glimmering, painterly abstractions and immersive spaces, as in the intimate and vulnerable explorations of screenlight and screenlife featured in his 2022 solo exhibition at the Arts Center of the Capital Region. More recently, Adam’s work has appeared in the form of “Farillon,” a monumental abstract chiming timepiece selected for the inaugural Troy Glow festival, a series of interactive video baths most recently presented at Club SPA Spa and the Flaherty Film Seminar, and new album releases of electroacoutsic experimental improvisations with his duo Sun Dogs and his trio Seven Count.</div>

They are obsessively tracked by a government investigator, played by Kristen Stewart, who becomes increasingly captivated by their work and uncovers what may be the next phase in human evolution.</div><div><br></div><div>This program contains material of a highly sensitive nature including language, nudity, violence, gore, and disturbing content.</div><div><br></div><div>Framing the Flesh</div><div>Framing the Flesh is a four-film series that explores our fascination with and revulsion to the fantasies of unconventional bodily alterations.

The Lester W Strock Geosciences Lecture
Time: 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM
Palamountain Hall Davis Auditorium: <p>Earthquake or explosion? History and future of geophysical nuclear explosion monitoring</p><p>When the earth shakes anywhere in the world, scientists are interested in what happened. Was it an earthquake? A chemical explosion? A collapsing mine? Or, was it a nuclear explosion? Scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory are particularly interested in the answer to the last question. Making sure the world is safe from nuclear proliferation means monitoring the globe for nefarious activity. As you can imagine, a bad actor who wants to hide a nuclear test isn’t going to volunteer a lot of information. That’s where nuclear explosion signatures come in. A signature can come from seismic, acoustic or chemical signals—or all the above. As a geophysicist at Los Alamos, Dr. Michael Cleveland (Skidmore, class of 2006) is interested in understanding how explosions produce seismic waves, how those waves travel through the earth, and how they differ from waves produced by earthquakes. In this talk, Dr. Cleveland will discuss the history and future of geophysical nuclear explosion monitoring. Attend the talk to learn about a side of Los Alamos not portrayed in Christopher Nolan’s "Oppenheimer"</p>
Framing the Flesh: Body Horror on Film Double Feature
Time: 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM
Tang Teaching Museum Somers: Join us Thursday, April 4 at 6 pm, for a screening of Georges Franju’s Eyes Without a Face (1960) and Shinya Tsukamoto’s Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989). This double feature of critically acclaimed and classic films is the second screening in the Framing the Flesh series, organized by Piper Ingels ’24, which explores our fascination with and revulsion to the fantasies of unconventional bodily alterations.<div><br></div><div>About the films</div><div>Eyes Without a Face (dir. Georges Franju, France/Italy, 1960, 90 min., digital)</div><div>Georges Franju’s iconic French arthouse horror film has been a major influence on the genre in the decades since its release. Simultaneously ghastly and lyrical, the film is a chilling expression of our ancient preoccupation with the nature of identity. Examining obsession, guilt, and the lengths a parent will go to for their child, the film’s images—of terror, of gore, of inexplicable beauty—are not easily forgotten.</div><div><br></div><div>Tetsuo: The Iron Man (dir. Shinya Tsukamoto, Japan, 1989, 92 min., digital)</div><div>Shinya Tsukamoto’s unconventional perspective on humanity’s enduring struggle with technology has elevated his film to cult classic status. Twisting traditional elements of body horror into a frenetically paced cyberpunk concoction, the movie thrives on techno-erotic energy and a blend of wrought-iron perversions. The outcome is an attempt to intertwine pain with pleasure, fuse the realms of man and metal, and, via the film’s distinctive style, unify the realms of new media and old.</div><div><br></div><div>These films contains material of a highly sensitive nature including language, nudity, violence, gore, and disturbing content.</div><div><br></div><div>Framing the Flesh</div><div>Framing the Flesh is a four-film series that explores our fascination with and revulsion to the fantasies of unconventional bodily alterations. The films meet at the intersection of pain and gratification linked to body modifications, cyborg enhancements, and plastic surgery, examining how these practices serve as sources of stimulation, empowerment, and avenues for sexual satisfaction.</div><div><br></div><div>Framing the Flesh is organized by Piper Ingels ’24, as the capstone project for her 2023-24 Meg Reitman Jacobs ’63 Endowed Internship.

Framing the Flesh: Body Horror on Film
Time: 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM
Tang Teaching Museum Somers: Join us Thursday, April 18, at 6 pm, for a screening of Laura Moss’s birth/rebirth (US, 2023, 101 min., digital), a modern, feminist take on the classic Frankenstein story. This screening concludes the Framing the Flesh series, organized by Piper Ingels ’24, which explores our fascination with and revulsion to the fantasies of unconventional bodily alterations.About birth/rebirth (2023)A reimagining of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Laura Moss’s directorial debut offers a contemporary perspective, becoming a thrilling, chilling, and entirely fresh experience as it delves into the themes of motherhood and creation. Marin Ireland takes on the role of a pathologist fixated on reanimating the dead. She establishes an unexpected bond with a maternity nurse, and the two women enter a dark path that forces them to confront how far they are willing to go to protect what they hold most dear.This film contains material of a highly sensitive nature including language, nudity, violence, gore, and disturbing content.Framing the FleshFraming the Flesh is a four-film series that explores our fascination with and revulsion to the fantasies of unconventional bodily alterations. The films meet at the intersection of pain and gratification linked to body modifications, cyborg enhancements, and plastic surgery, examining how these practices serve as sources of stimulation, empowerment, and avenues for sexual satisfaction.Framing the Flesh is organized by Piper Ingels ’24, as the capstone project for her 2023-24 Meg Reitman Jacobs ’63 Endowed Internship. The series is programmed in conjunction with the student-curated exhibition Abject Anatomy, on view at the Tang from February 9 through April 21, 2024.Framing the Flesh ScreeningsMarch 28, 7:30 pm: Crimes of the Future (2022)April 4, 6 pm: Eyes Without a Face (1960) and Tetsuo: The Iron Man 1989)April 18, 6 pm: birth/rebirth (2023)
