SUMMARY:HI Resident Lecture Series: Sabine Doran
DESCRIPTION:\n“The Sugar Babies’ Call: Climate Changes\, or Marooning th
e Color Wheel”\n\nA Faculty Scholar Resident talk by Sabine Doran\, asso
ciate professor of German and Jewish studies.\n\nStagings of “marooners’
calls” in artistic engagements as different as Walker’s A Subtlety\, Ha
ile Gerima’s Sankofa\, and John Akomfrah’s Tropikos revisit the process
of sugar’s crystallization: “Thank you for letting me know that sugar is
not white\,” reads the first intertitle of the “digital sugar baby’s ar
chive” (Walker). This talk will examine sugar’s crystal image as a refle
ction of the cooling of heated matter (molasse) on which the process of
sugar’s crystallization depends. A process that will allow us to address
climate change in terms of what Derrida called (in Cinders) "the holoca
ust’s holocaust\, the blaze reflected and cooled by the glass\, the ice\
, of the mirror.”\n\n \;\n\nFor more details: https://events.la.psu.
