I greatly enjoyed moderating the panel Frames that Cut at the NEMG Symposium, Emerson College, Boston in early April. Frames that Cut zeroed in on work exploring strangeness and othering. Thanks to co-moderator Graham Yeager and artists and researchers Cliff Notez, Jessica Myers, Maria Servillon and Shannon VanGyzen for a stimulating dialogue discussing artistic strategies for the formation of new political consciousness that makes visible and challenges the multiple violences of our racist capitalist society.
