» Ethics and the Making of Cities

MIT Calendar - Fri, 11/20/2009
The paradox of urbanism is that those who are most capable of shaping cities (i.e. urban designers, architects, landscape architects) are among the least effective at transforming them. Urbanists possess the unique combination of being able to directly address the four- dimensional issues of place, creative thinking skills, interdisciplinary approaches to problem solving, and engagement with city-building processes on a daily basis. However, urbanists also view cities as the production of material objects, and their singular obsession with form and space renders them impotent in the face of powerful decision-making processes and larger power structures. Dr. Aseem Inam has practiced as an architect, urban designer and planner in Los Angeles, Montreal, Mumbai, New Delhi, Paris, St. Louis, and Washington DC. The talk is co-sponsored by the Residential Scholars Program at Simmons Hall and the Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values, and is supported by a generous contribution from the William R. (1956) and Betsy P. Leitch Endowment.

» Tim Gearan Joins WMBR's 3 Ring Circus Program

MIT Calendar - Fri, 11/20/2009
Tim Gearan sings with strains of J.J. Cale, the Band's Levon Helm, and a bit of the alt-country rasp of Steve Earle. At times, there are dark and heavy doses of acoustic blues reminiscent of contemporary bluesmen like James Blood Ulmer and Chris Smither, and at more tender moments, suggestions of a coarser James Taylor (to whose "Lo and Behold" Gearan applies a reverential treatment).
-- Somerville Journal For over 11 years he held down Monday nights at Toad. Lately, he moved his full band rockfest to Friday's at Atwoods, and he sat in with Treat Her Right at their recent reunion shows, but for one afternoon, he stops by 3 Ring Circus to treat us right. Nov. 20 at 5pm.

» Sung Hwan Kim: Summer Days in Keijo--written in 1937

MIT Calendar - Fri, 11/20/2009
Kim often integrates video and performance art, and takes on the role of director, editor, performer, composer, narrator, and writer to create works that are narrative yet dreamlike. His Summer Days in Keijo--written in 1937 is a fictional documentary based on Swedish ethnographer and zoologist Sten Bergman's 1937 travelogue In Korean Wilds and Villages. Keijo was the Japanese colonial name for Gyeongseong or Seoul, and Kim traces Bergman's pre-war path through present-day Seoul, using a Dutch female protagonist in his place. Kim created an elaborate soundtrack to the film in collaboration with the Amsterdam- and New York-based musician David Michael DiGregorio also known as dogr.
