This show was curated through Rhodes College's Curation in Context course and funded graciously by the Clough Hanson Gallery. The show featured Lauren Blair of Memphis College of Art. This show focused on the connection between medically transitioning and mental health. The "TEXT | subtext |" exhibition was held on Sunday, April 22nd at 5:30. Live music began at 7:30, and the Blair's first solo exhibition ended at 8:30.Clough-Hanson Galler
Spring Beginning Painting Project 1: Environment
No full textThis painting was digitized and uploaded to DLynx by the Visual Resources Center in Spring 2018.This is a painting created by Elizabeth Sommerkamp. It was submitted as part of the first project assigned to the Beginning Painting class of Spring 2018 taught by Carl Moore. This assignment, titled "Environment," required students to complete 20 paintings on a 9 x 12 inch cold press illustration board and two color charts. The "Environment" subject could reference objects from everyday life or a still life that was set up in the studio

The Myth of Nixon's Opening of China
No full textPresentation by Nick DeMaris ('18) delivered at the Rhodes College Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity Symposium (URCAS).On February 21, 1972 the international political environment was forever changed when President Richard Nixon arrived in Beijing in the first public display of diplomatic relations between communist China and the United States since the end of the Chinese Civil War in 1950. However, the significance of Nixon's actions in the opening of China has been systematically mischaracterized within the historical conversation at large. This presentation seeks to reevaluate the traditional historical narrative by placing Nixon's willingness to engage with a revolutionary communist regime within the broader context of the evolving nature of post-War bipolarity, US containment policy, and the perpetual impetus to project American influence globally. In reconsidering these actions, the opening of China can now be viewed in a different light; one that does not represent a complete break with United States foreign policy during the Cold War

Conceptual size ensembles cannot be predicted by individual item size representations
No full textPresentation by Sneha Suresh ('19) delivered at the Rhodes College Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity Symposium (URCAS).The visual system compresses redundant information into efficient, ensemble representations by
averaging features across items. Ensemble perception operates with remarkable flexibility, even
integrating object information at a conceptual level. For example, given a sufficiently strong
depth cue, the visual system represents the perceived size of a set of triangles as opposed to their
physical size (i.e., it accounts for size constancy; Suresh, Thomasson, & Haberman, VSS, 2017).
In the current set of experiments, we explored whether conceptual ensemble size representation may be predicted by the size representation of the individual items composing the group. In
every trial, observers viewed an individual triangle with and without linear perspective cues and
judged whether a subsequently presented test triangle was larger or smaller than the preceding
triangle. Whereas observers were biased to perceive the average size of multiple triangles as
larger when presented in the context of linear perspective cues (i.e., conceptual size averaging),
they did not take those cues into account when estimating the size of a single triangle. That is,
observers perceived a single triangle in the context of linear perspective cues as the same size as
a single triangle without linear perspective cues. These results suggest the generation of a
conceptual size ensemble cannot be predicted by the individual item representations, which
points to an emergent calculus that depends on judgments at the group level
