  • New School Histories
    New School Histories ULEC2800, Fall 2019 Tuesday, 4:00-5:15pm Julia Foulkes, [email protected], 66 W. 12th St., Rm 908 Rm. 104, Univ. Center Mark Larrimore, [email protected], 65 W.11th St., Rm 454 When the New School for Social Research opened its doors a hundred years ago, it offered courses in the social sciences and public affairs – and a new vision of higher education. It was not a university; it did not offer degrees. The founders thought that people would come to the school for “no other purpose than to learn.” A century later, the New School has changed in almost every way. Design, the arts, a spirit of activism, and degree programs dominate. But the school continues to strive to offer disciplinary experimentation, political involvement, and a global lens that offers a critical perspective on higher education. In what ways have these values been realized (or not), and how? We construct answers to these questions by assembling a history of the school from scrapbooks of newspaper articles, memoirs, artwork, and interviews. The basis of the course are the academic and artistic works of The New School’s faculty and students since its establishment. We will also participate in university centenary activities throughout the semester. Learning Objectives ● Learn about archives, how to navigate them and build historical interpretations from sources in them. ● Learn various research methods, including archival investigation and interviews. ● Understand central issues of higher education over the last century and into the future. ● Write papers that convey analytical thinking, a command of readings, original ideas, and accurate acknowledgement of sources.

    Art Architecture Design New Titles The MIT Press Picturing Science and Engineering Felice C. Frankel “As we create ever more sophisticated tools to explore the micro and macro universe, it’s easy to become detached from agape understanding and appreciation of what we can’t see, feel, and sense. Felice Frankel’s work brings those worlds within reach, so that we can appreciate not only the technical marvels but also the enormous beauty and infinite variety of creation, both natural and manmade.”—Yo-Yo Ma “With the clarity of an expert and the passion of a true aficionado, Frankel once again proves to be crucial in bridging scientific discovery and public consciousness.” —Paola Antonelli, Senior Curator, Architecture & Design, Director, Research & Development, The Museum of Modern Art One of the most powerful ways for scientists to document and communicate their work is through photography. In this book, celebrated science photographer Felice Frankel offers a guide for creating science images that are both accurate and visually stunning. Picturing Science and Engineering provides detailed instructions for making science photographs using the DSLR camera, the flatbed scanner, and the phone camera. The book includes a series of step-by-step case studies, describing how final images were designed for cover submissions and other kinds of visualizations. Lavishly illustrated in color throughout, the book encourages the reader to learn by doing, following Frankel as she recreates the stages of discovery that lead to a good science visual. Felice C. Frankel is an award-winning science photographer whose photographs have appeared in many publications. A research scientist in the Department of Chemical Engineering at MIT, she is the author of Envisioning Science (MIT Press), No Small Matter (with G.

Toward an Ecology of Gaming Katie Salen Institute of Play; Parsons the New School for Design, Design and Technology A time is marked not so much by ideas that are argued about as by ideas that are taken for granted. —Jonathan Letham1 1954. West Germany gains an unexpected 3-2 victory over Hungary in the World Cup, known from then on as The Miracle of Bern. Officials announce that an American hydrogen bomb test had been conducted on Bikini Atoll in the Pacific Ocean. Marilyn Monroe weds Joe DiMaggio. The Geneva Conference partitions Vietnam into North Vietnam and South Vietnam. Mathematician Alan Turing commits suicide. “Gaming as a Technique of Analysis” is released, praising games as designed models with which to think. When viewed from this perspective, 1954 looks a lot like 2007: a year of instability and transformation on the world stage, a year shadowed by the promise and threat of competing ideologies, a year colored by fear, hope, and the advent of new technology. 1954 was also a year, like this year, when games entered the popular lexicon and man the player was seized upon as a harbinger of change.
