United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Ne uschatz\nDr. Jeffrey Neuschatz \nI am Dr. Jeffrey S. Neuschatz\, a cogniti ve psychologist whose research sits at the intersection of memory\, percep tion\, and the law. I hold a BA in Psychology from Roger Williams Universi ty\, an MA in General Experimental Psychology from SUNY Cortland\, and a P hD in Cognitive Psychology from Binghamton University. Before joining the Applied Psychological Science program at Fielding\, I was a faculty member in the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) Department of Psychology . During my tenure at UAH\, I advanced to become a Distinguished Professor and\, in 2022\, received the King-McDonald Eminent Scholars Professorship in Psychology. \nI’ve published over 75 peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters\, including notable authored volumes such as The Psychol ogy of Eyewitness Identification (2012) and Hugo Münsterberg’s Psycholo gy and Law: A Historical and Contemporary Assessment (2019). In 2022\, my co-author\, Jonathan Golding\, and I published “Jailhouse Informants: Ps ychological and Legal Perspectives\,” addressing how informant testimony can impact verdicts and contribute to wrongful convictions. I also served as the Editor-in-Chief of the international journal Psychology\, Crime & Law. \nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford\nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford \nI am Dr. K aren Dill Shackleford\, a social psychologist who explores how we\, as hum ans\, use stories and media to understand ourselves and the world around u s. My passion lies in studying how fictional narratives—like TV shows\, books\, and games—help shape our identities\, beliefs\, and sense of bel onging. I’m especially interested in fandom\, race and gender representa tion\, and the powerful role of media in promoting (or challenging) social justice. \nI lead the Entertainment Psychology Lab where we actively enga ge in qualitative and quantitative research on  a diversity of topics inc luding why we repeatedly watch the same television show and how it feels w hen a TV theme song takes us on a nostalgic journey. \nMy PhD is from the University of Missouri-Columbia\, where my dissertation on media violence became one of the most cited in the field. Over the years\, I’ve testifi ed before Congress about media violence and misogyny in music\, and I’ve collaborated with the APA to help shape national policy on violence in vi deo games. (Fun fact: the makers of Grand Theft Auto IV even named a car a fter me—the “Karin Dilettante”—a cheeky nod to the media effects d ebate!)

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art. Through educational collaborations and programming\, this exhibition highlights Sherk’s feat ure in the magazine. UCSB students will also offer personalized tours of t he exhibition as a reflection of their learning environment and varied dis ciplinary interests.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 was organ ized by Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco and curated by Tanya Zimbardo.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

From microscopic particles in matter to human minds on the internet\, these interactions can produce remarkable examples of “em ergence”\, or complex behavior that cannot be predicted from individual parts.\nPhysicists remain deeply puzzled by emergence\, as it produces rem arkable properties observed in some materials. The mystery extends beyond physics to the rise of life\, the existence of consciousness\, and even th e spread of internet memes. In this lecture\, Roger Melko will follow comm on threads connecting these phenomena to the most striking recent example of emergence\, artificial intelligence.\nAI may itself offer new tools for unravelling the mysteries of emergence. Melko will describe how we are al ready using it to understand and control complex quantum systems\, includi ng quantum computers. Finally\, he will ask whether a deeper understanding of hierarchies of emergence could allow us to harness it as a scientific and technological resource.\n\nAbout the speaker:\nRoger Melko is a theore tical physicist at the University of Waterloo and the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. He earned his PhD from UCSB\, where he studied co mputational approaches to quantum matter. He then spent two years at Oak R idge National Laboratory developing quantum simulations for some of the la rgest computers in the world\, before returning to Canada to take up his p rofessorship at Waterloo.\nFor the last decade\, his research has explored the emerging relationship between artificial intelligence\, condensed mat ter physics\, and quantum science. His current work aims to bring AI and q uantum computers together\, creating a virtuous cycle in which intelligent machines help accelerate the development of quantum computers\, and new A I/quantum hybrids open entirely new frontiers in complexity and intelligen ce for physicists to explore.\n\n \n\nReception at 5PM\, Talk at 6PM\n\nPa rking will be provided in Lot 10\nIn-Person RSVP: https://lp.constantconta ctpages.com/ev/reg/2cc2tpv\nRegister to watch online (if unable to attend in-person): https://ucsb.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ozZQzMMvRvyCZOGa5jyI_ Q#/registration\n\nPlease contact friends@kitp.ucsb.edu for more informati on LAST-MODIFIED:20260826T180051Z URL:https://www.campuscalendar.ucsb.edu/event/artificial-intelligence-and- the-age-of-emergence X-SOURCE-NAME:UC Santa Barbara Calendar X-SOURCE-URL:https://www.campuscalendar.ucsb.edu/lotte_lehmann_concert_hal l_198 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Vespers: A Meditative Service DTSTART:20260916T010000Z DTEND:20260916T020000Z DTSTAMP:20260902T001438Z UID:6167@ussb.org CATEGORIES:community,music DESCRIPTION:Feeling overwhelmed by the world?

Ne uschatz\nDr. Jeffrey Neuschatz \nI am Dr. Jeffrey S. Neuschatz\, a cogniti ve psychologist whose research sits at the intersection of memory\, percep tion\, and the law. I hold a BA in Psychology from Roger Williams Universi ty\, an MA in General Experimental Psychology from SUNY Cortland\, and a P hD in Cognitive Psychology from Binghamton University. Before joining the Applied Psychological Science program at Fielding\, I was a faculty member in the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) Department of Psychology . During my tenure at UAH\, I advanced to become a Distinguished Professor and\, in 2022\, received the King-McDonald Eminent Scholars Professorship in Psychology. \nI’ve published over 75 peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters\, including notable authored volumes such as The Psychol ogy of Eyewitness Identification (2012) and Hugo Münsterberg’s Psycholo gy and Law: A Historical and Contemporary Assessment (2019). In 2022\, my co-author\, Jonathan Golding\, and I published “Jailhouse Informants: Ps ychological and Legal Perspectives\,” addressing how informant testimony can impact verdicts and contribute to wrongful convictions. I also served as the Editor-in-Chief of the international journal Psychology\, Crime & Law. \nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford\nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford \nI am Dr. K aren Dill Shackleford\, a social psychologist who explores how we\, as hum ans\, use stories and media to understand ourselves and the world around u s. My passion lies in studying how fictional narratives—like TV shows\, books\, and games—help shape our identities\, beliefs\, and sense of bel onging. I’m especially interested in fandom\, race and gender representa tion\, and the powerful role of media in promoting (or challenging) social justice. \nI lead the Entertainment Psychology Lab where we actively enga ge in qualitative and quantitative research on  a diversity of topics inc luding why we repeatedly watch the same television show and how it feels w hen a TV theme song takes us on a nostalgic journey. \nMy PhD is from the University of Missouri-Columbia\, where my dissertation on media violence became one of the most cited in the field. Over the years\, I’ve testifi ed before Congress about media violence and misogyny in music\, and I’ve collaborated with the APA to help shape national policy on violence in vi deo games.

The program will feature Ch ris Ragland\, founder and executive director of Sea League\, for a thought -provoking talk on ocean access\, stewardship\, and the importance of buil ding meaningful connections between coastal communities and the marine env ironments that surround them on Thursday\, September 17\, 2026\, at 7:00 p .m. at the museum. SBMM members are invited to a pre-lecture reception fro m 6:15–6:45 p.m. \nTickets: Free for Navigators Circle members\, $10 for SBMM members\, $20 for the general public\, and $5 for students and educa tors with valid school ID or email. For reservations\, visit sbmm.org\, em ail reservations@sbmm.org\, or call (805) 456-8750. \nRegister Today \nIn his presentation\, Ragland will explore the idea that nature connection sh ould be treated not simply as a charitable cause\, but as essential public infrastructure. Drawing on Sea League’s work creating immersive ocean e xperiences that cross economic lines and bridge neighborhoods\, he will ex amine how direct connection to the sea can cultivate future stewards\, sci entists\, entrepreneurs\, and the workforce needed for a thriving blue eco nomy. \nThe talk will focus on the Santa Barbara Channel as one of the mos t ecologically significant marine environments on the planet\, while also highlighting the reality that many people living along the surrounding coa stline have never meaningfully experienced it. Ragland will discuss what i s possible when ocean fluency is built at scale and how that vision could strengthen marine conservation\, workforce development\, community resilie nce\, and the long-term health of the coastlines on which society depends. \n“There is no institutional infrastructure that normalizes ocean immer sion for coastal communities\,” said Ragland. “This fragmented familia rity produces fragmented stewardship. You can’t build a coalition broad enough to protect something that most of your community has never had the chance to experience.” \nChris Ragland is the founder and executive dire ctor of Sea League\, a Santa Barbara organization innovating how youth con nect to the ocean. A waterman-turned-social entrepreneur\, he brings toget her a decade of experience as a surf coach\, lifeguard\, and kayak guide i n Channel Islands National Park with leadership in environmental advocacy and public engagement. As Creative Director at FinalStraw\, he helped adva nce efforts that eliminated 300 million single-use straws. He has also col laborated with NOAA and California’s Ocean Protection Council on public engagement and served on the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary Adv isory Council. \n“Chris Ragland brings an inspiring and necessary perspe ctive to the conversation about the future of our coast\,” said SBMM Exe cutive Director Dean Noble. “His work challenges us to think differently about who has access to the ocean\, why that matters\, and how those conn ections shape the next generation of marine stewards.” \nThrough the Mar itime Distinguished Speaker Series\, SBMM continues to bring leading voice s in ocean science\, maritime history\, conservation\, and coastal culture to the Santa Barbara community\, reinforcing the museum’s mission to il luminate our rich connections with the sea through education and storytell ing.

There are ma ny pitfalls that most non-profits have no idea exist. Most do not have ded icated HR full-time professionals\, and even if they do\, there are still issues that slip through the cracks. \nIn this interactive session\, we wi ll explore some of the blind spots and common supervisory mistakes that ca n create liability for your nonprofit organization and the steps you can t ake to address them. Among the items we will examine: \nHas your nonprofit properly categorized its workers as salaried exempt or hourly nonexempt? You may be surprised at the rules.\nWhen you want to revise employee job d escriptions and roles\, how much can a role change before it becomes a new position? How should you be documenting it?\nIs your organization observi ng meals and rest breaks correctly with proper documentation?\nIf employee s are using their personal equipment (cell phone\, tablet\, computer\, hom e Internet\, home electricity) on behalf of the organization\, are you pro perly reimbursing them?\nDo your pay stubs comply with very specific Calif ornia law? (Don’t rely exclusively on your payroll service)\nAre you rou nding time for your hourly people?\nWhen you have a big event\, do you let your hourly people take time off at different times?\nHow are you managin g paid time off (PTO)\, vacation and sick time\, which tend to be more gen erous in the nonprofit world?\nThese and many other questions will be answ ered during this seminar targeted expressly for nonprofit organizations\, large and small. Come with your real-world questions\, as we will create a mple time for Q&A. \nFacilitated by: Jon Light\nAs the managing partner at LightGabler LLP\, Jon and his team consult with over 6\,000 companies acr oss California on their day-to-day employment law needs.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art. Through educational collaborations and programming\, this exhibition highlights Sherk’s feat ure in the magazine. UCSB students will also offer personalized tours of t he exhibition as a reflection of their learning environment and varied dis ciplinary interests.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 was organ ized by Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco and curated by Tanya Zimbardo.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art. Through educational collaborations and programming\, this exhibition highlights Sherk’s feat ure in the magazine. UCSB students will also offer personalized tours of t he exhibition as a reflection of their learning environment and varied dis ciplinary interests.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 was organ ized by Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco and curated by Tanya Zimbardo.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Prien Professor and Chair of the Department of Bioengineering and Therapeutic Sciences\, UCSF.\n\nDescription\nIn 2020\, AlphaFold transform ed the field of structural biology by using artificial intelligence (AI) t o solve a problem researchers had worked on for over fifty years: predicti ng the three-dimensional structure of proteins. Its success was made possi ble in part by the extensive collection of protein structures that biologi sts have openly shared in the Protein Data Bank since 1971. AlphaFold demo nstrates how research shared today can enable discoveries that its creator s may never have anticipated.\n\nDrawing on his experiences as a structura l biologist\, Dr. Fraser will explore what it means to practice open scien ce as new technologies reshape how research is conducted and shared. He wi ll discuss how data increasingly have both human and machine audiences\, a s well as the debate over the missing AlphaFold3 code. Dr. Fraser will als o reflect on the research questions he chooses to tackle because AI still cannot solve them\, and why reviewing the work of others is one of the bes t ways to learn how to become a scientist.\n\nSpeaker Bio\nDr. James Frase r is the Ernest L. Prien Professor and Chair of the Department of Bioengin eering and Therapeutic Sciences at UC San Francisco (UCSF). He received hi s PhD in Molecular and Cell Biology from UC Berkeley and was an EMBO Short -Term Fellow at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel before beginni ng his independent research career at UCSF.\n\nDr. Fraser’s research exp lores how proteins move and change shape — and how these dynamics influe nce their biological functions. His lab combines experimental and computat ional approaches to reveal the different structures proteins can adopt and to understand how they respond to chemical\, genetic\, and physical chang es. This work bridges structural biology\, biophysics\, protein engineerin g\, and drug discovery\, with implications across a range of therapeutic a reas. Dr. Fraser’s contributions have been recognized with numerous awar ds and honors\, including the Carl Brändén Award from the Protein Societ y (2025)\, the inaugural W.H. & W.L. Bragg Prize from the International Un ion of Crystallography (2020)\, and an NIH Director’s Early Independence Award (2011). He was also named to Forbes magazine’s “30 Under 30” list of rising stars in science and innovation (2011).\n\nAs a leader and active practitioner of open science\, Dr. Fraser has worked to advance mor e open\, transparent\, and collaborative approaches to conducting and comm unicating research. His lab puts these principles into practice by openly sharing research outputs\, including preprints\, protocols\, data\, and co de. For 7 years\, Dr. Fraser served on the board of ASAPbio\, a nonprofit working to promote innovation and transparency in life science communicati on. He is also a proponent for open peer review\, including collaborativel y reviewing preprints with his trainees and sharing those reviews publicly through PREreview. His commitment to open science extends to how research and researchers are evaluated\, including advocating for hiring and promo tion practices aligned with the principles of the Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA).\n\nEvent logistics\nThis event may be photographed or r ecorded.\nAdvance registration is recommended as space is limited (Registe r Now!)

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

I hold a BA in Psychology from Roger Williams Universi ty\, an MA in General Experimental Psychology from SUNY Cortland\, and a P hD in Cognitive Psychology from Binghamton University. Before joining the Applied Psychological Science program at Fielding\, I was a faculty member in the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) Department of Psychology . During my tenure at UAH\, I advanced to become a Distinguished Professor and\, in 2022\, received the King-McDonald Eminent Scholars Professorship in Psychology. \nI’ve published over 75 peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters\, including notable authored volumes such as The Psychol ogy of Eyewitness Identification (2012) and Hugo Münsterberg’s Psycholo gy and Law: A Historical and Contemporary Assessment (2019). In 2022\, my co-author\, Jonathan Golding\, and I published “Jailhouse Informants: Ps ychological and Legal Perspectives\,” addressing how informant testimony can impact verdicts and contribute to wrongful convictions. I also served as the Editor-in-Chief of the international journal Psychology\, Crime & Law. \nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford\nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford \nI am Dr. K aren Dill Shackleford\, a social psychologist who explores how we\, as hum ans\, use stories and media to understand ourselves and the world around u s. My passion lies in studying how fictional narratives—like TV shows\, books\, and games—help shape our identities\, beliefs\, and sense of bel onging. I’m especially interested in fandom\, race and gender representa tion\, and the powerful role of media in promoting (or challenging) social justice. \nI lead the Entertainment Psychology Lab where we actively enga ge in qualitative and quantitative research on  a diversity of topics inc luding why we repeatedly watch the same television show and how it feels w hen a TV theme song takes us on a nostalgic journey. \nMy PhD is from the University of Missouri-Columbia\, where my dissertation on media violence became one of the most cited in the field. Over the years\, I’ve testifi ed before Congress about media violence and misogyny in music\, and I’ve collaborated with the APA to help shape national policy on violence in vi deo games. (Fun fact: the makers of Grand Theft Auto IV even named a car a fter me—the “Karin Dilettante”—a cheeky nod to the media effects d ebate!)

Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art. Through educational collaborations and programming\, this exhibition highlights Sherk’s feat ure in the magazine. UCSB students will also offer personalized tours of t he exhibition as a reflection of their learning environment and varied dis ciplinary interests.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 was organ ized by Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco and curated by Tanya Zimbardo. The presentation at the Art\, Design & Architecture Mus eum at UC Santa Barbara is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Dir ector and Curator of Exhibitions.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions. The exhibition is made possible thanks to the genero us support of the AD&A Museum Council.

The network of se ven protected wildlands serves as a living laboratory where scientists\, s tudents\, and conservation partners study the natural world and develop ne w approaches to understanding and protecting it. \nDuring the presentation \, Philson will offer an inside look at the Natural Reserve System—what it is\, how it developed\, and why its protected sites\, research programs \, and educational opportunities are increasingly important. \nDrawing fro m a portfolio of more than 270 active research projects\, Philson will hig hlight discoveries spanning ecology\, evolution\, climate science\, marine biology\, and related fields. Topics will include rare species recovery\, long-term climate monitoring\, and collaborative research that helps scie ntists better understand the ecosystems supporting clean air\, water\, foo d\, wildlife\, and human communities. \nThe program will also explore the reserves’ vital role as classrooms without walls. Through field-based\, experiential learning\, students gain direct exposure to ecosystems and sc ientific methods in ways that cannot be replicated in a traditional lectur e hall. \n“Conner brings a leading perspective on what it means to condu ct research and learn in California’s wildest and most distinctive ecosy stems\,” said Executive Director of SBMM Dean Noble. “His work directi ng the UCSB Natural Reserve System reflects the kind of partnership among science\, education\, and land stewardship that is essential to understand ing and conserving the ecosystems on which we all depend.” \nPhilson is driven by advancing discovery and connection in the natural world through protected wild places and field-based science and education. As Executive Director of the Natural Reserve System at UC Santa Barbara\, he oversees a network of protected lands and field laboratories supporting research\, t eaching\, and conservation across California’s diverse ecosystems. \nHe earned his PhD in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from UCLA\, where he st udied the social behavior of wild mammals at field sites around the world. Philson also serves as President of the Organization of Biological Field Stations\, a global network of field research laboratories. \nWhether atte ndees are longtime Santa Barbara residents\, students\, educators\, or sim ply curious about the natural world\, the presentation will offer a deeper appreciation for the wild spaces and living laboratories advancing scienc e\, education\, and conservation throughout the region. \nEvent Details\nD ate: October 15\, 2026\nTime: 7:00 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.\nLocation: Santa Bar bara Maritime Museum\, 113 Harbor Way\, Santa Barbara\nTickets: Free for N avigators Circle members\, $10 for SBMM members\, $20 for the general publ ic\, and $5 for students and educators with valid school ID or email.

Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Since 2006\ , the mission of Naked Shakes has been to present energetic\, exciting\, r aw\, vibrant Shakespeare using the power of the actors and the language. D on't miss this unforgettable performance that will transport you to the wo rld of Verona!\n\n \n\n \n\nAbout UC Santa Barbara's Naked Shakes:\n\nNake d Shakes believes in the transformation of the actor and the space\, along with the imaginative ability of the audience. Each play is presented cle arly and directly so that the audience inhabits the imaginative world of t he play through Shakespeare’s language. The barren physical theater spa ce is very important to the Naked Shakes concept\; it takes on the identit y of whatever locale or particular piece of poetic language is described\, and yet always reminds the audience they are in a theater. When Prospero in The Tempest describes “the great Globe itself\,” he is not only re ferring to the entire Earth\, but also the “Globe” Theater – Shakesp eare’s theater. That duality is what Naked Shakes is all about. \n\nThe critically acclaimed\, award-winning Naked Shakes has performed at UCSB a nd transported productions to Southwest Shakespeare Company at Taliesin We st in Scottsdale\, AZ\, the Shakespeare Center of Los Angeles\, Westmont College and Center Stage in downtown Santa Barbara. Past Naked Shakes pro ductions include: the premiere of The Death of Kings\, a two-part adaptat ion of Shakespeare’s history plays\, Hamlet\, King Lear\, Much Ado about Nothing\, A Midsummer Night’s Dream\, Macbeth\, The Winter’s Tale\, T welfth Night\, Romeo and Juliet\, Measure for Measure\, The Merchant of Ve nice\, and The Tempest.

Throughout the winter and spring quarters \, the Library sponsors a variety of free learning\, experiential\, and so cial events to explore the book’s themes. The selected book is also inco rporated into the university curriculum for winter and spring\, allowing s tudents to explore its themes in an academic context. UCSB Reads is genero usly supported by many individuals\, university departments\, and organiza tions. \n\nThis exhibition highlights the history of UCSB Reads since its inception\, featuring promotional posters\, selected books\, custom bookma rks along with testimonials and images of participants engaging with progr amming throughout the years.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art. Through educational collaborations and programming\, this exhibition highlights Sherk’s feat ure in the magazine. UCSB students will also offer personalized tours of t he exhibition as a reflection of their learning environment and varied dis ciplinary interests.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 was organ ized by Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco and curated by Tanya Zimbardo. The presentation at the Art\, Design & Architecture Mus eum at UC Santa Barbara is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Dir ector and Curator of Exhibitions. The exhibition at Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture was generously supported by San Francisco Grants for The Ar ts\, the FMCAC Board of Directors\, and individual contributions to the Fo rt Mason Fund.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Since 2006\ , the mission of Naked Shakes has been to present energetic\, exciting\, r aw\, vibrant Shakespeare using the power of the actors and the language. D on't miss this unforgettable performance that will transport you to the wo rld of Verona!\n\n \n\n \n\nAbout UC Santa Barbara's Naked Shakes:\n\nNake d Shakes believes in the transformation of the actor and the space\, along with the imaginative ability of the audience. Each play is presented cle arly and directly so that the audience inhabits the imaginative world of t he play through Shakespeare’s language. The barren physical theater spa ce is very important to the Naked Shakes concept\; it takes on the identit y of whatever locale or particular piece of poetic language is described\, and yet always reminds the audience they are in a theater. When Prospero in The Tempest describes “the great Globe itself\,” he is not only re ferring to the entire Earth\, but also the “Globe” Theater – Shakesp eare’s theater. That duality is what Naked Shakes is all about. \n\nThe critically acclaimed\, award-winning Naked Shakes has performed at UCSB a nd transported productions to Southwest Shakespeare Company at Taliesin We st in Scottsdale\, AZ\, the Shakespeare Center of Los Angeles\, Westmont College and Center Stage in downtown Santa Barbara. Past Naked Shakes pro ductions include: the premiere of The Death of Kings\, a two-part adaptat ion of Shakespeare’s history plays\, Hamlet\, King Lear\, Much Ado about Nothing\, A Midsummer Night’s Dream\, Macbeth\, The Winter’s Tale\, T welfth Night\, Romeo and Juliet\, Measure for Measure\, The Merchant of Ve nice\, and The Tempest.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art. Through educational collaborations and programming\, this exhibition highlights Sherk’s feat ure in the magazine. UCSB students will also offer personalized tours of t he exhibition as a reflection of their learning environment and varied dis ciplinary interests.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 was organ ized by Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco and curated by Tanya Zimbardo.

Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation.

Since 2006\ , the mission of Naked Shakes has been to present energetic\, exciting\, r aw\, vibrant Shakespeare using the power of the actors and the language. D on't miss this unforgettable performance that will transport you to the wo rld of Verona!\n\n \n\n \n\nAbout UC Santa Barbara's Naked Shakes:\n\nNake d Shakes believes in the transformation of the actor and the space\, along with the imaginative ability of the audience. Each play is presented cle arly and directly so that the audience inhabits the imaginative world of t he play through Shakespeare’s language. The barren physical theater spa ce is very important to the Naked Shakes concept\; it takes on the identit y of whatever locale or particular piece of poetic language is described\, and yet always reminds the audience they are in a theater. When Prospero in The Tempest describes “the great Globe itself\,” he is not only re ferring to the entire Earth\, but also the “Globe” Theater – Shakesp eare’s theater. That duality is what Naked Shakes is all about. \n\nThe critically acclaimed\, award-winning Naked Shakes has performed at UCSB a nd transported productions to Southwest Shakespeare Company at Taliesin We st in Scottsdale\, AZ\, the Shakespeare Center of Los Angeles\, Westmont College and Center Stage in downtown Santa Barbara. Past Naked Shakes pro ductions include: the premiere of The Death of Kings\, a two-part adaptat ion of Shakespeare’s history plays\, Hamlet\, King Lear\, Much Ado about Nothing\, A Midsummer Night’s Dream\, Macbeth\, The Winter’s Tale\, T welfth Night\, Romeo and Juliet\, Measure for Measure\, The Merchant of Ve nice\, and The Tempest.

Algorithms amplify false\, misleading\, or emotionally activating content\, leading to echo chambers and increased polarization. \nWhile in theory\, the democratization of inf ormation could expand citizens’ knowledge and insight\, in practice\, we live in an era of “information disorder” that could upend global poli tics.

Morse is Associate Professor of Polit ical Science at UCSB and the author of The Bankers’ Blacklist (Cornell U niversity Press\, 2022).

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era. It showcases newly t ransferred film and video alongside rarely seen photographs\, collages\, w orks on paper\, artist books\, printed matter\, and ephemera documenting S herk’s early performances and site-specific interventions of the 1970s a nd 1980s.\n\nThe AD&A Museum is an educational partner of the multi-year i nitiative High Performance: A 2-Year Conference (2025–2027)\, which cele brates and historicizes High Performance (1978–97)\, the first internati onal magazine devoted exclusively to performance art.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions.

Ne uschatz\nDr. Jeffrey Neuschatz \nI am Dr. Jeffrey S. Neuschatz\, a cogniti ve psychologist whose research sits at the intersection of memory\, percep tion\, and the law. I hold a BA in Psychology from Roger Williams Universi ty\, an MA in General Experimental Psychology from SUNY Cortland\, and a P hD in Cognitive Psychology from Binghamton University. Before joining the Applied Psychological Science program at Fielding\, I was a faculty member in the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) Department of Psychology . During my tenure at UAH\, I advanced to become a Distinguished Professor and\, in 2022\, received the King-McDonald Eminent Scholars Professorship in Psychology. \nI’ve published over 75 peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters\, including notable authored volumes such as The Psychol ogy of Eyewitness Identification (2012) and Hugo Münsterberg’s Psycholo gy and Law: A Historical and Contemporary Assessment (2019). In 2022\, my co-author\, Jonathan Golding\, and I published “Jailhouse Informants: Ps ychological and Legal Perspectives\,” addressing how informant testimony can impact verdicts and contribute to wrongful convictions. I also served as the Editor-in-Chief of the international journal Psychology\, Crime & Law. \nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford\nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford \nI am Dr. K aren Dill Shackleford\, a social psychologist who explores how we\, as hum ans\, use stories and media to understand ourselves and the world around u s. My passion lies in studying how fictional narratives—like TV shows\, books\, and games—help shape our identities\, beliefs\, and sense of bel onging. I’m especially interested in fandom\, race and gender representa tion\, and the powerful role of media in promoting (or challenging) social justice. \nI lead the Entertainment Psychology Lab where we actively enga ge in qualitative and quantitative research on  a diversity of topics inc luding why we repeatedly watch the same television show and how it feels w hen a TV theme song takes us on a nostalgic journey. \nMy PhD is from the University of Missouri-Columbia\, where my dissertation on media violence became one of the most cited in the field. Over the years\, I’ve testifi ed before Congress about media violence and misogyny in music\, and I’ve collaborated with the APA to help shape national policy on violence in vi deo games. (Fun fact: the makers of Grand Theft Auto IV even named a car a fter me—the “Karin Dilettante”—a cheeky nod to the media effects d ebate!)

Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions. The exhibition is made possible thanks to the genero us support of the AD&A Museum Council.

I hold a BA in Psychology from Roger Williams Universi ty\, an MA in General Experimental Psychology from SUNY Cortland\, and a P hD in Cognitive Psychology from Binghamton University. Before joining the Applied Psychological Science program at Fielding\, I was a faculty member in the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) Department of Psychology . During my tenure at UAH\, I advanced to become a Distinguished Professor and\, in 2022\, received the King-McDonald Eminent Scholars Professorship in Psychology. \nI’ve published over 75 peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters\, including notable authored volumes such as The Psychol ogy of Eyewitness Identification (2012) and Hugo Münsterberg’s Psycholo gy and Law: A Historical and Contemporary Assessment (2019). In 2022\, my co-author\, Jonathan Golding\, and I published “Jailhouse Informants: Ps ychological and Legal Perspectives\,” addressing how informant testimony can impact verdicts and contribute to wrongful convictions. I also served as the Editor-in-Chief of the international journal Psychology\, Crime & Law. \nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford\nDr. Karen Dill Shackleford \nI am Dr. K aren Dill Shackleford\, a social psychologist who explores how we\, as hum ans\, use stories and media to understand ourselves and the world around u s. My passion lies in studying how fictional narratives—like TV shows\, books\, and games—help shape our identities\, beliefs\, and sense of bel onging. I’m especially interested in fandom\, race and gender representa tion\, and the powerful role of media in promoting (or challenging) social justice. \nI lead the Entertainment Psychology Lab where we actively enga ge in qualitative and quantitative research on  a diversity of topics inc luding why we repeatedly watch the same television show and how it feels w hen a TV theme song takes us on a nostalgic journey. \nMy PhD is from the University of Missouri-Columbia\, where my dissertation on media violence became one of the most cited in the field. Over the years\, I’ve testifi ed before Congress about media violence and misogyny in music\, and I’ve collaborated with the APA to help shape national policy on violence in vi deo games.

Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time.

Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems.
