The details for the talk are given below. Best, Mitoo. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Making the Edible Legible: American Restaurants in Print, 1830-2006 Talk by: Dr. Krishnendu Ray Venue: Seminar Room, Sarai-CSDS Date: 8th August Time: 3:30 pm Cuisine happens when cooking leaves the kitchen, in the first instance when it escapes the domestic kitchen, and in the second instance, when it spreads onto the print media to give durability to the talk about taste. Based on detailed archival work and quantitative data this presentation seeks to measure the talk about restaurants in American newspapers from its first appearance in 1830 to the present. The restaurant kitchen is the space of mongrel borderland – an orality of Hispanidad, Bengali, Cantonese, and Hakka – and the dining room a pedigreed and printed Anglophone parlor with Francophile accents. This work looks at taste and toil as a dynamic, dialogic relationship between producers and consumers of commodified cuisine. Krishnendu Ray is Assistant Professor of Nutrition, Food Studies and Public Health at New York University. He is the author of The Migrants' Table (Temple Univ Press, 2004), and has taught for a decade at the Culinary Institute of America.

The idea behind the foundry is to create a vigorous, multi-disciplinary space which works in a hands-on, rigorous way to explore and discover different performance making processes combining different art forms, both traditional and contemporary, trying to achieve an integrated, vertical idiom. The foundry has been envisioned and will be steered by Arka Mukhopadhyay, the artistic director of Logos Theatre. Logos Theatre is embarking on a process of establishing an experimental performance repertory comparable to any benchmark in the world, and the foundry is intended to serve as the basis out of which the repertory will emerge and performance material will be created. We are not looking at becoming yet another amateur English theatre group. We plan to start from scratch, and work with a group of people who bring with them enthusiasm and a clear commitment to exploring intense performance making processes. We do not have the financial muscle, at this point of time, to hire actors on a full-time basis, so what we propose to do is to start a process of training and exploration, which people can join up through auditions and personal discussions, and these people will become equal stakes members of the company. Our areas of focus will be: Physical preparation - breath, voice and speech. The realization of the performer's 'self'. Breath and voice as means of connecting to the inner universe and subsequently tools of outward expression. Breath as a basis for emoting for the actor. Speech rhythms and colours. Hymns and chants - vibrational energies. Finding the physical and psychological centre. The body and movement - Intensive physical work, using existing traditional and contemporary forms of dance and martial arts, as well as free explorations, 'doings' and 'actions'. This is intended to be intense, gruelling work, breaking down the performers outward psycho physical layers, rendering her/him spiritually 'naked', and then to work from that centre. Space - exploration space through movement, through the five senses, through text, and with objects. Improvisations - both in the sense of Improv, i.e. established short and longform improv techniques, as well as dipping into the chaos of the pre-expressive state that lies at the substratum of performance processes. Working with elements of Theatre of the Oppressed and ideas incorporated from Psychodrama, especially theatre as cathartic play. Exploring ritual, myth and magic in performance, by creating and enacting performative rituals, rites of passage, fertility, sacrifice and regeneration, resonant songs, universal and personal myths, etc. Exploring traditional forms of performance, such as oral narrative traditions, story cycles and methods of telling them, movement and improvization in ancient, tribal and folk cultures, such as theyyam, bhoota, mangalkabbyo, australian aboriginal performance traditions, etc.; to name a few Exploring text as an element of performance - Text for us is one of the many elements of performance, and not the central one. Hence, we will work both with and against the word. For now, we plan to stick to Shakespeare (especially Macbeth) as well as contemporary texts by Heiner Muller, Sarah Kane, Roland Schimmelpfennig, etc. While this is the basic outline of the intended programme, in terms of structure, it will aim at a holistic as well as vertical approach to performance. Hence, it will move beyond theatre in the usual sense and absorb elements of performance poetry, storytelling, installation and video art, and performance art. Hence, we are also looking at inviting, from time to time, artists from disciplines such as music, painting, sculpture, installation, movement, etc. to work with us. If this interests you, please consider getting in touch. Before you do that, however, please be clear on a few things: 1) As you might guess, we are not terribly interested in conventional fourth-wall realism, so if that's the kind of theatre that interests you, we might not be the right people for you. 2) We will expect a very strong sense of commitment. This does not mean you have to give us all your professional time as we are unable to pay a salary for now and the foreseeable future, though whatever money we make out of performances will of course be shared. So, you can definitely have a primary career, but we'll need clear commitments in terms of what kind of time you can give us. So if you are looking at pursuing theatre as a 'hobby', we may again be the wrong people to approach. We shall also not demand that you work exclusively with us, but first priority will need to be given to the group since we are going to work in a laboratory environment where we shall learn collaboratively. While we do not intend to charge for such training, we definitely expect commitment to the group. *3) While we do not intend to be theatre or art activists and intend to focus firmly on the aesthetic, art at the same time cannot exist without a political consciousness. To that end, we are opposed to art that is created with support from big corporate houses which make money through unethical and often undemocratic practises in collusion with the state; or art created with the support of so called arts foundations which, in turn, are supported by unethical corporate entities. There cannot be any compromise on this, and we intend to remain, as it were, 'un-founded'. Please consider this before approaching us.* If this sounds good to you, please call on 9880966313 or e-mail contact at logostheatreindia.org to set up an appointment, and we will take it from there. -- Logos Theatre In the beginning was the word No. 126, 3rd Main Road, Jayamahal Extension, Bangalore 560046 India www.logostheatreindia.org google group: http://groups.google.com/group/logostheatre (to subscribe by e-mail: logostheatre-subscribe at googlegroups.com) -------------------------------------------------------- If it be now, 'tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be now; if it be not now, yet it will come: the readiness is all.

Thank you. Sincerely, Jayani Bonnerjee Call for papers: Migration, Diaspora and the City, Calcutta Deadline for abstracts: 1st October, 2008 ------------ Migration, Diaspora and the City: Mobility and Dwelling in Calcutta A two-day international conference 12 ? 13th December 2008, Centre for Studies in Social Sciences, Calcutta Convened in collaboration with the Diaspora Cities research team and The City Centre, Queen Mary, University of London This two-day international and inter-disciplinary conference at the Centre for Studies in Social Sciences, Calcutta, will explore the critical relationships between migration, diaspora and the city, focusing on past and present migrations to and from Calcutta. The conference is convened in collaboration with the Diaspora Cities research team, Queen Mary, University of London and the City Centre. It is funded by The Leverhulme Trust (www.geog.qmul.ac.uk/diasporacities/). Although ideas and lived experiences of diasporas are intrinsically transnational, a wide range of research invokes the nation through material and imaginative connections to a past, present or imagined ?homeland.? Other research focuses on the city primarily as a site of diasporic resettlement. Drawing on research on historical and contemporary migrations to and from Calcutta, this conference will focus on the city as a distinctive location within ?diaspora space? (Brah, 1996) and will address the ways in which the city, as a place of origin, travel, sojourn and resettlement, is a site of territorial and emotional mobility and dwelling. Abstracts are invited from researchers working on past and present migrations to and from Calcutta and on wider conceptual themes concerning migration, diaspora and the city. The conference will address migration within Bengal and India as well as on a transnational scale, and will consider the ideas, experiences and emotions of mobility and dwelling for a wide range of communities within Calcutta and across the Calcuttan diaspora. Conference themes are likely to include: ? Histories and geographies of travel and migration to and from Calcutta ? Oral histories, images and written accounts of Calcutta in diaspora ? Diasporic memories, imaginings and experiences of Calcutta ? Transnational practices and the neo-liberal city ? Tales of urban mobility and dwelling in life stories, cultural practices and representations ? The emotional, embodied and sensory geographies of Calcutta in diaspora ? Public and private spaces of diasporic urbanism ? Mobility and dwelling in relation to urban modernities, cosmopolitanism and consumption Please send abstracts of up to 200 words by 1 October 2008 to Dr Noah Hysler Rubin: N.Rubin at qmul.ac.uk Thank you -- Jayani Bonnerjee Research Student Department of Geography Queen Mary, University of London Mile End Road London E1 4NS j.bonnerjee at qmul.ac.uk From mitoo at sarai.net Wed Aug 20 13:11:45 2008 From: mitoo at sarai.net (Mitoo Das) Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2008 13:11:45 +0530 Subject: [Announcements] Positions Available Message-ID: <48ABCAB9.7040906@sarai.net> *POSTITIONS AVAILABLE* The Cultural and Material life of Media Piracy is a three year project carried out by the Sarai programme of the CSDS in collaboration with the Alternative Law Forum Bangalore. We begin with the premise that piracy is widespread in places where a media-saturated modernity meets severe inequalities of purchasing power for books, software, recordings, videos and other knowledge products. One of the key aims of this research project will be to understand this media environment as it unfolds itself in diverse contexts. The main research node is in India with comparative work in China and Pakistan. The Sarai-ALF teams of researchers work in tandem with an international project on media piracy with fellow researchers in Brazil, South Africa and Russia. The larger study is coordinated by the SSRC (New York). The project seeks to open different debates on piracy other than simply that of enforcement and criminality. Through research, we hope to generate discussions of cultural needs, community practices of sharing and circulation in societies of high inequality. We will also look at media industry approaches to piracy and enforcement strategies. In addition, there will be ethnographic and quantitative work on media use in neighbourhoods. The study of piracy offers a unique vantage point to study the media environment, through the sites of media and its movement across limits set by law, the complexity of user-bases, and the diversity of cultural delivery platforms. We are looking for bright, energetic and qualified researchers who can work in collaboration with a regional and international team. Applicants must demonstrate abilities to research and write on the subject. A familiarity with the debate on piracy and the creative commons is preferable. *Social science and Humanities applicants should have completed post graduate degrees and law students- a four year programme. * *Researcher One: Delhi* The researcher will be looking at fieldwork material on media piracy in the Sarai archive, as well as conduct neighbourhood surveys slate to begin in 2009. Work will include research papers presentations and collaborative work with the team. *Researcher Two: Mumbai* The researcher will be looking at the range of piracy strategies pursued by media industries in the film and music sectors.

While the literate and formal discourse is dominated by power and hierarchy, the oral often expresses, counter-hegemonic tendencies subverting the asymmetric social norms. Although the oral culture does not necessarily preclude knowledge of literacy, it manifests itself primarily through the channels of oral performance. Oral discourses have wide circulation in many communities whereby alternate belief and knowledge systems are constructed and communicated. In a multilingual and multivocal country like India, the oral often crosses language borders. It is necessary to bridge the cultural difference between orality and literacy and highlight the oral as indigenous epistemology informing the multifarious cultural practices. With this in view a two week Autumn School is proposed to be held at the Indian Institute of Advanced Study, Shimla, from 3 November to 16 November 2008, The Autumn School will be conducted by eminent scholars from several disciplines who will explore the various aspects of oral culture such as oral narratives, ethnography of popular lore, oral as symbolic form of solidarity and resistance, folk wisdom communicated through the oral, social function of proverbs, rumours and gossip, oral/written interface, the use of oral in literature, katha-vachana, oral history, partition memoirs, oral testimony and narratives of riot victims and survivors, etc. Applications are invited from young college/university teachers from the Humanities and Social Sciences that make use of the 'oral' as a pedagogical tool. A batch of 25 participants will be selected from amongst the applicants. Those interested may send their bio-data (that should include their academic qualifications, experience, research interests and areas of specialisation) along with a note of 200-250 words regarding the nature of their proposed participation and how they could contribute to the understanding of the 'oral' as a resource. All expenses will be borne by the IIAS. This is the first Autumn School and is planned to become a regular annual academic activity. Applications For the above programme must reach the IIAS by 15 September 2008. Those selected will be informed by 30 September 2008. Applications may be sent by e-mail to scaikant at rediffmail.com and proiias at gmail.com or by post to: Professor Satish C.
