Mipsterz, in partnership with Colorado College, Duke University, University of Miami, Columbia University, and the Center for Afrofuturist Studies,  announces a landmark virtual conference that includes an impressive roster of over 30 Muslim thought leaders, artists, and creatives who will lead conversations, panels, and individual talks.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The Muslim Futurism: Definitions, Explorations, and Future Directions conference attempts to define Muslim Futurism as an idea, aesthetic, and framework. Inspired by and building upon Afrofuturism, organizers hope to create conversations centered on five themes: imagination, identity, community, resistance, and liberation. Showcasing the work and ideas of prominent scholars and creators, the conference will explore issues in the present and how they could manifest in multiple alternative futures where Muslims are at the center of the narrative.<\/span><\/div>\n

What does your job entail?  <\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m the video producer at CC, which means I portray CC stories and experiences through video with a team of student interns.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

Where did you work before CC and what were you doing?<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

I lived in Chicago for many years, shooting, editing, and crewing on narrative and documentary films. I was the director of photography and editor for a political media company and the video producer at Lincoln Park Zoo. I also have experience in community media, most recently teaching at After School Matters in Chicago.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

Tell us a little about your background.<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m originally from Oakland, California, and have a B.A. in cognitive psychology from Barnard College and an MFA in film and media arts from Temple University. Some of my film influences include Chantal Akerman, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Lucrecia Martel, and Jan \u0160vankmajer. My short films have screened both nationally and internationally at festivals, conferences, and in curricula.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

What do you like to do when not working?  <\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

When not at CC, I enjoy exploring new places, hiking, taking care of plants, celebrating, thinking about learning to draw, and eating the amazing food that my partner cooks.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

Wild card: When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

As a kid, I wanted to be a vet, but the death and neutering would not have worked for me.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

Assistant Professor of Acting and Directing Lisa Marie Rollins<\/a> has been awarded a $7,500 grant from the Zellerbach Family Foundation to support the continued development of her new play, \u201cLove Is Another Country,\u201d which follows three women as they navigate living in a country that claims to love Black women. That country would be the United States of America. \u201cLove Is Another Country\u201d focuses on three members of the Chapman family \u2014 two sisters and their great-grandmother. \u201cIt features an ensemble of diasporic Black women who bring to life this story about all the forms of violence against these Black women that they must learn how to navigate, and it holds space for the hard work of their collective healing,\u201d says Rollins.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n
