    This podcast of our annual This Whitworth Life: Whitworth\u27s Untold Stories event was recorded on November 21, 2014. The event was a project of EL 347: Creative Nonfiction Workshop. Eight members of our campus community wrote and read stories about significant moments in their lives. Topics include but are not limited to: jigsaw puzzles, introversion, campus tours, grits, comical-only-in-hindsight interactions with law enforcement, martyrs, PTSD, forgiveness. Enjoy these stories by our 2014 cast: Katie Ferris, Amanda Clark, Alan Jacob, Tim Grayson, Henry Stelter, Amy Hendricks, Laura Bloxham, and Helen Higgs. Thanks to our faculty panelists, Fred Johnson and Karin Heller, and to the Fall \u2714 students of EL 347

    Cézanne at the Whitworth

    Accompanies the exhibition, Cézanne at the Whitworth at the Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester (24 August 2019 – 1 March 2020), which marks Karsten Schubert’s bequest.This exhibition celebrates an extraordinary collection of drawings and prints by Paul Cézanne (1839–1906) that has been gifted and placed on long-term loan to the Whitworth by gallerist, collector, author and founder of Ridinghouse, Karsten Schubert.This important act of generosity means that the Whitworth now holds the best collection of Cézanne works on paper in the United Kingdom, including a version of every print produced by the artist.These works will significantly expand the research potential of the Whitworth’s important collection of late nineteenth-century French and Dutch drawings by artists including Van Gogh, Seurat, Gauguin and Pissarro – whose portrait of Cézanne is included in this publication.The exhibition will be the first in the UK since 1973 to focus exclusively on Cézanne’s drawings and prints, and also draws together other artistic copies: Raimondi’s copy of Raphael’s Judgement of Paris and, bringing us to the present day, Michael Landy’s Cézanne Bathers.With a lead essay by renowned Impressionist scholar Richard Thomson on the significance of the bequest to the Whitworth’s collection of nineteenth-century drawings, a biographical essay on Schubert by Richard Shone, an interview of Karsten Schubert by Yuval Etgar on the bequest, and an essay by Christopher Lloyd on how these works relate to Cézanne’s output as a draughtsman.This publication also includes a detailed catalogue section on all works in the exhibitions with contributions by Elizabeth Cowling, Rosalind McKever, Colin Wiggins and Edward Wouk

    23. Lucilia woodi sp. nov. Figs. 13, 33, 34, 61, 62, 85, 86, 120–122, 134, 146, 158, 159, 161 Tables 1, 2 Diagnosis. Gena with dark setae; upper and lower calypters dark in both sexes; basicosta brown; setae below and behind strong postocular row pale and weak; presutural area of thorax usually with a broad band of whitish microtomentum, in some specimens the microtomentum is patchy. This species shares many characters with L. pulverulenta, but the former has pale setae on the gena, while L. woodi has all dark setae on the gena. In lateral view, the surstylus of L. woodi (Fig. 61) is broader than in L. pulverulenta (Fig. 53). Description. Male. Frons narrow, 0.017 (0.01–0.02/5) of head width at narrowest; anterior facets are 2.4x larger than posterior facets (anterior 0.67mm, posterior 0.28mm, Table 1); fronto-orbital plates are silvery-tan, plates converge midway up frons; frontal vitta dark red, extending about one-third up frons to where fronto-orbitals touch, frontal setae end about one-half way up frons; parafacial silvery-tan except anteroventral corner more or less orange; gena silvery with dark setae, postgena silvery with pale setae; pedicel dark orange with base of first flagellomere brighter orange, remainder pale orange; ocellar triangle tiny and black with short setae, ocelli about equal in size; supravibrissal setae ascend about 40% up frontal ridge; intrapostocular area bright silvery, setae below and behind postocular row pale and weak except for a small cluster of dark setae near the lower edge of the eye; upper edge of occiput and a vertical strip in the center shining black, remainder of occiput with whitish microtomentum. Presutural area of thorax with heavy microtomentum, remainder of thorax shining; spiracles brown and fairly large; proepisternal depression with pale setae; upper calypter light tan to brown, lower calypter brown to dark brown; base of wing with cells and veins darkened; basicosta dark brown, tegula black; subcostal sclerite orange with pubescence. T1-3 of abdomen and anterolateral corners of T4 with whitish microtomentum, with the remaining segments polished. Surstylus medium length, digitate, gradually expanding toward distal end, cercus tapers distally and gradually curving forward (Figs. 61, 62). Phallus, hypandrium, pre- and postgonite, ejaculatory sclerite, and sternites as in 85, 86, 120–122, 134 respectively. Female. Characters very similar to male except frons 0.24 (0.22–0.25/5) of head width at narrowest; eye facet size very similar to those in male (anterior 0.59mm, posterior 0.29mm, Table 1).

(BMNH); 1 female, Pacora, May 14, 1953 (USNM); 1 female, San Blas Prov., Cuadi River, April 3, 1967, no collector (FSCA). Distribution. Costa Rica, Honduras, and Panama (Fig. 159). Discussion. About 20% of the specimens that keyed to this species had patchy microtomentum on the presutural area of the thorax, not a solid band (similar to Fig. 14), all from Costa Rica. Originally, this was thought to be a separate species, but other characters for both sexes appeared to be very similar. For now, this condition is considered intraspecific variation. A few specimens of Lucilia, primarily from southeastern Brazil keyed to this species, but clearly are not, based on male genitalia. Not enough good material was available to determine if these specimens belong to an undescribed species, or if they are aberrant examples of an existing species. Two specimens that keyed to this species produced barcodes that were widely separated. This is either a vaiable species, or possibly a species complex. Further study is needed to explain the variation observed (Fig. 161). Etymology. The species name was chosen to honor D. Monty Wood who encouraged me to work on the taxonomy of this difficult genus in the Neotropics and has been a dedicated student of Diptera for over half a century. Erratum In the Whitworth publication on calliphorids of the West Indies (2010: 10, 11), the author mistakenly labeled the proepimeral seta which is present or absent in some Chrysomya as “proepisternal seta”.Published as part of Whitworth, Terry, 2014, A revision of the Neotropical species of Lucilia Robineau-Desvoidy (Diptera: Calliphoridae), pp. 1-76 in Zootaxa 3810 (1) on pages 50-52, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3810.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/491852

    From Wunderkammern to Kinect: The Creation of 'Shadow Worlds'

    No full text
    This paper focuses on two projects, Still Life No. 1 and Shadow Worlds | Writers' Rooms [Brontë Parsonage], to reveal the creative approaches the authors take to site, technology, and the self in their production of shadow worlds as sites of wonder. Informed by the uncanny (re-animation and the double) and an interest in the limen (thresholds in the real and virtual realms), the projects explore white light and infrared digital 3D scanning technologies as tools for capture and transformation. The authors will discuss how they suture the past with the present and ways that light slips secretly between us, revealing other realms

    Harlem\u27s Superhero: Social Interaction, Heterogeneity of Thought, and the Superhero Mission in Marvel\u27s Luke Cage

    No full text
    The essay extends previous Luke Cage scholarship by analyzing him through a discipline rarely utilized in superhero scholarship: developmental psychology. Using the Luke Cage television series, the author centers Luke Cage\u27s relationship to Harlem. In doing so, the author explores how the relationship can elucidate both the conceptual foundations of morally-relevant decision-making and the ways these concepts may be applied in varied and complex social interactions -- features of social life relevant to everyday persons as well as superheroes working within a fictionalized neighborhood

    Fractals: Using Math to Understand Depression

    No full text
    This presentation will feature a reading of Denin Koch\u27s creative non-fiction work Fractals. A Q-and-A session with the author will follow. The essay combines research on the mathematical concept of fractals with a personal narrative on depression to create a multi-disciplinary piece of art. The work is structured around five distinct episodes or occurences, with facts on fractals preceding each section of narrative, creating a meta-layered piece. The presentation will show the value of academic research to the artistic disciplines and how empirical data can have a beautiful relationship with our personal lives

    Why the Proliferation of Amateur Photography is Good for Self-Representation

    No full text
    This paper examines how mobile technologies are impacting the practice of photography. Social media sites such as Instagram and Facebook have become normal platforms for editing and sharing pictures, and camera-equipped cell phones have changed the experience of taking photos, creating access to an unprecedented number of photographers. While some professional and amateur photographers disparage these media for devaluing photos, anthropologists see it as a tool for self-expression. The author will focus on amateur photography as self-ethnography, especially in marginalized populations, to demonstrate the value of this proliferation
