Artist Talk: A Conversation about Blindness and ArtMonday March 27, 2023 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm; Finley Hall room Finley Gallery, Room 118
A Conversation about Blindness and Art Featuring special guests: Dr. Georgina Kleege and artist Emilie Louise Gossiaux Most discourse about “disability and the arts” focuses on access, and much less about participation and inclusion. In the field of blindness, the main tool for access accommodations is the use of “audio description” (AD). In this unique conversation between two visually impaired artists/consumers of art, we hope to go beyond using AD as *simply* an accommodation, and seek to push the boundaries around interactive and subjective/creative description. When blind people participate in the creation of audio descriptions, can we create new genres of art? Can their haptic insights be broadly useful to all museum patrons? Come join us for this exciting conversation!

“How Does Science Progress?” • Philosophy for LunchThursday March 30, 2023 11:30 am - 12:30 pm; Schmitt Hall room 104
Most people place a great amount of trust in science—more accurately, in the technology that science makes possible. But how does science manage this, and is it really worthy of that trust? Thomas Kuhn had his doubts about the objectivity and rationality of science that "went viral" in the 1970s and haven't left public consciousness since. Join us as we read some of the arguments that made "paradigms" a word we all still recognize today. (Image of Kuhn by Arte IQC) • This is an in-person event, but there is a Zoom option; use this link: https://montclair.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIqcuqsqzgpHdfjjf3m9lJRFHwz0l6mezTD • What is P4L? Students, professors, and other philosophy enthusiasts close-read and discuss a few great passages of philosophy. • Who’s invited? No preparation or previous knowledge of philosophy is needed. Everyone is welcome! • Should I bring anything? Bring a beverage, and if you're hungry, bring your actual lunch.
