NORTH ADAMS, Mass.—MCLA Assistant Professor of Education Lisa Arrastia will present "Oral History Remix: Disrupting Notions of Difference" at 6 p.m. on March 10, via zoom, as part of The Mind's Eye Spring 2022 Works in Progress Lecture Series.  

 

This event is free and open to the public. To register, visit https://mindseye.mcla.edu/spring2022. 

 

This is the third iteration of The Mind's Eye's Faculty Works-in-Progress Colloquium series, in which MCLA faculty members share their current research or creative projects and benefit from questions and discussion. 

 

During her talk, Arrastia and attendants will try to bring into being "diverse, untidy social dreams" by listening to students engage a new genre of public art, one of duration, one with the intent of disorienting our notions of difference through a love pedagogy, a pedagogy of aesthetic love.
