The concept of pattern in the arts provides artists with tools that can limit creativity or suggest new avenues for exploration. They can offer a maker innovative options to explore with their accustomed materials and techniques; at times present a designer a means of control; advance a range of new ornaments and motifs to work with; and impart a new understanding of the relation between functional and decorative form. This exhibition will look at the impact of pattern in the arts using the University Art Galleries collections.

In analyzing thePatriotMovement fostered by John Wilkes, Inot only contendthat these fears merit seriousconsideration, butargue that this movement's'Scotophobia'would be better understood as anti-Jacobitismgrounded in living memory.Revealing importantperceptionsabout Scottish imperial officials,Wilkitepropagandacentered not on Scotland, but on Highlanders who were blamed by both Scots andtheEnglish for theJacobite Rebellion of 1745.Thisresearchnot only contributes to scholarship on the origins of the American Revolution,itargues that the Jacobite Rising was a formative moment for the BritishEmpire, andrevealsanimportantstrain of 'highlandization'.Kattari I settled onto the floor as the first notes of the Drone Not Drones event wafted to my ears from the strike of a gamelan gong. From tambura to synthesizer, drum to accordion, Bulgarian chorus to powwow song, a musical drone was sustained for 28 continuous hours over the course of more than 45 performing groups. Drawing on my ethnographic research, I'll consider how the long-form event facilitated transformative experiences that allowed participants to reflect on the destruction caused by military drones and imagine a world at peace. This presentation offers new ways of thinking about drone-based music as a vehicle for exploring dystopia and utopia, a sonic medium for personal healing, and a catalyst for activist engagement.   Chair: Juan Alonzo  Please note that this is not a lecture, and thus, is not suited for class attendance. The Colloquium Series is intended to provide the presenter with a forum to discuss their research and receive feedback from colleagues and peers.
