Palamountain Hall Palamountain 231: Alec MertinVisiting Assistant ProfessorMathematics and Statistics DepartmentSkidmore College Rowmotion and HomomesySimple rules can sometimes give rise to unexpectedly rich and structured behavior. In this talk, I will discuss one such example from dynamical algebraic combinatorics, a growing area that studies what happens when combinatorial objects are repeatedly transformed. A central idea in this field is homomesy, introduced by Propp and Roby, which relays a simple truth: although a system may evolve in a complicated way, certain quantities can exhibit the same average value over time.I will focus on rowmotion, an operation on order ideals of a partially ordered set, and show how homomesy appears in this setting through concrete examples. I will show a variety of results, open questions, and future directions.The talk will be accessible to students who have taken Linear Algebra.

Tang Teaching Museum Somers: Join us Tuesday, February 10, at 6 pm, for a Whole Grain: Experiments in Film & Video screening of two short video works by artist Jess T. Dugan: Letter to My Father (US, 2017, video, 14 min., 54 sec.) and Letter to My Daughter (US, 2023, video, 16 min.). This screening is a public program of the exhibition Family Forms, which celebrates multiple modes of living and relationships and challenges visitors to reflect on their own definitions of “family.” Corinne Moss-Racusin, Professor of Psychology at Skidmore and co-curator of the exhibition, will introduce the screening.About the VideosLetter to My Father is an autobiographical video exploring Dugan’s estranged relationship with their father. In the video, they read an undelivered letter to their father, in which they try to come to terms with their difficult and distant relationship. The video is comprised of snapshots of the artist, family, and friends, pulled entirely from Dugan’s personal albums. The open letter weaves together their childhood, early gender nonconformity, parents’ divorce, queer identity, personal relationships, spouse, desire to create a family and become a parent, and – ultimately – their father’s inability to accept them and their eventual estrangement. Through the telling of a highly personal story, the video grapples with two fundamental desires, often placed in direct opposition to one another: the need to live authentically and the desire for acceptance from others.Letter to My Daughter is an autobiographical video directed to the artist’s five-year-old daughter, Elinor, that centers around their experience with parenthood throughout the first five years of her life. The audio soundtrack is a voice reading a letter to Elinor, and the images are from their personal archive and include snapshots, ultrasound images, and photographs from Family Pictures. The letter is highly personal and addresses a variety of topics, including Dugan’s expectations around parenthood, the long and circuitous journey of trying to have a child with both known and anonymous sperm donors, the experiences of miscarriage and loss, and their adjustment to parenthood as a queer and nonbinary person. Perhaps most importantly, it tries to put into words the intensity of love between a parent and child as well as the significant personal growth parenthood both inspires and requires.About Whole GrainThe Tang Museum’s Whole Grain series explores classic and contemporary work in experimental film and video. Whole Grain is programmed by Assistant Director for Engagement Tom Yoshikami. All events are free and open to the public.

Zankel Music Center Helen Filene Ladd Concert Hall: In the span of a decades-long career, Peruvian born guitarist and composer Jorge Caballero has accrued wide recognition as one of the most important guitarists in history, being the recipient of several international awards, and performing in recitals, chamber music and as a soloist around the world. Critics from international newspapers and guitar publications have praised Mr. Caballero’s depth of musicality, as well as his technical mastery when tackling the unique difficulties of his concert repertoire. Aside from the standard guitar literature he performs –which spans centuries of music from the Renaissance until the present, Mr. Caballero is notorious for adapting and performing masterworks originally written for piano or orchestra, among which we find Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition, Dvorak’s New World Symphony, Debussy’s Children’s Corner Suite and Alban Berg’s Piano Sonata Op. 1 to name a few. One critic in Italy referred to Mr. Caballero as “standing on top of the repertoire’s Mount Everest,” while the New York Times called him “a masterly guitarist” with “chameleonic timbres.” Presented by the Skidmore Department of Music.

Tang Teaching Museum Somers: Join us Thursday, March 19, at 6 pm, for a Whole Grain: Experiments in Film & Video screening of 100 Sunset (Canada, 2025, video, 99 min.), Tibetan-Canadian filmmaker Kunsang Kyirong’s thrilling debut feature set in a Tibetan immigrant community outside of Toronto. Kyirong will introduce the film and answer questions following.This screening is co-presented by the Department of Asian Studies, Media & Film Studies, and the Tang.About the FilmKunsel (Tenzin Kunsel) is an introverted young woman living in the Tibetan immigrant community of west Toronto, where she commits petty theft and spies on her neighbors through a camcorder. However, when newcomer Passang (Sonam Choekyi) moves into the neighborhood with her much older husband, Kunsel is gradually drawn out of her solitary, watchful existence. The presence of a dhikuti—a communal lending practice in which participants contribute a fixed monthly sum to be redistributed back to community members—adds a $200,000 payout to an already volatile mix of intrigue and betrayal.Titled after the apartment complex address around which the film is set, Kunsang Kyirong’s auspicious debut feature is a richly detailed portrait of Toronto’s Tibetan Canadian community, as well as a fascinating character study of two women alienated in more ways than one. Reminiscent of the icy post-Hitchcockian thrillers of Claude Chabrol, this is the rare film whose enigmas only deepen as it unfolds. (Description from the Vancouver International Film Festival.)“At once precise and suggestive, 100 Sunset vibrates on dual frequencies of intimacy and unease that make it one of the most accomplished Canadian debuts in recent memory” (Toronto Star).Kunsang KyirongKunsang Kyirong is a Tibetan-Canadian filmmaker. Her debut feature 100 Sunset premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, where it was the recipient of the Best Canadian Discovery Award-Honorable Mention. Her work has exhibited at The Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art, The Museum of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia, and elsewhere. She lives in Montreal.About Whole GrainThe Tang Museum’s Whole Grain series explores classic and contemporary work in experimental film and video.
