SUMMARY:Human Club: MUD Potluck
DESCRIPTION:Come eat\, share\, and grow with Human Club and the Milwaukee Urban Demo Farms (MUD) Network! \n\n\n\nGuests are invited to bring a potluck-style dish or a recipe to share as we gather for food and conversation.

Today\, the UW-Extension Milwaukee County’s Urban Agriculture Team offers educational programming on sustainable growing practices and provides affordable land access to hundreds of Milwaukee-area farmers and gardeners across 70 acres of community garden space. With a focus on community food security\, climate adaptation\, and soil health\, Extension Milwaukee County Urban Agriculture delivers rigorous instruction on a variety of topics at the intersection of food access and responsible land stewardship. Whether running an ambitious USDA demonstration farm network project\, supporting a longstanding sustainable beekeeping course\, or showcasing innovative techniques in urban agroforestry\, the Extension Milwaukee County Urban Ag team works hard to support the gardening and farming needs of all who call Milwaukee County home. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFree and open to the public. All are welcome. Bring a dish and a friend!

SUMMARY:Gorfinkel Lecture: Sleeping in the Movie Theater
DESCRIPTION:Sleeping in the Movie Theater (After Wanda Goronski) \nNavigating recent interest in nocturnal imaginaries and the valence of sleep for understanding cinematic spectatorship\, this talk takes up the sleeping spectator as it figures in Barbara Loden’s landmark independent film Wanda (1970) to examine the function of night\, weariness\, precarity and itinerancy in the film\, exploring some tensions that inhere in analyses of sleep as a domain of repose or abandon. Following an essayistic and meandering logic that mimes the perambulations of the titular Wanda Goronski herself\, this talk enacts a series of experiments with forms of description\, the unraveling of archival aporias drawn from the film’s shooting script and other historical anecdotes\, and larger theorisations of cinema as medium of exhaustion. The talk emerges as one product of several years of archival research on Barbara Loden\, sketching out a path from one research project (a monograph on Loden’s film Wanda) to another about Barbara Loden as a feminist film historical subject and site of thorny questions about authorship\, biography\, the unfinished\, and feminist film writing. \nBio \nElena Gorfinkel is Reader in Film Studies at King’s College London. Prior to King’s she was Associate Professor of Art History & Film Studies at UW-Milwaukee. Her research interests concern independent\, adult\, & experimental cinemas and women’s film practices. She is the author of Lewd Looks: American Sexploitation Cinema in the 1960s (Minnesota\, 2017)\, and co-editor of Taking Place: Location & the Moving Image (Minnesota\, 2011)\, and Global Cinema Networks (Rutgers\, 2018). Forthcoming in 2024 are two books\, Wanda (BFI Film Classics\, Bloomsbury)\, and The Prop\, with John David Rhodes (Fordham/ Cutaways series). She is at work on two projects\, a book on “cinemas of exhaustion” which was awarded an Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant\, and a history of Barbara Loden’s creative life and feminist legacies. She is a member of the London Film Critics Circle and her criticism appears in Criterion\, Sight & Sound\, Artforum\, among other venues.
