Every new laptop, handheld device, and smartphone stresses the flexibility of completely wireless connectivity. In response to this communication evolution, This muhaqqaq script fragment (c. 1400) is one of the Islamic art treasures featured in the Carlos’ “Writing the Word of God” exhibit. University Technology Services (UTS) is in the midst of three significant improvements to Emory’s wireless experience: Emory Mobile, Next Gen Wireless and the Distributed Antenna System. Emory Mobile, a collection of smartphone apps, gives device-toting students, faculty, alumni, and campus visitors access to over 100 sources of data to enhance their Emory experience. UTS and the Office of Communications and Marketing partnered to develop Emory Mobile, which allows users to navigate campus maps, browse news and events, search campus contacts, follow Emory Eagles sports and more. The Emory Mobile platform has been established to provide a common mobile space for future apps to be developed.

The conference included diverse areas of inquiry. For instance, it accepted a paper that addressed the usage of Arabic script as inscription in differentp arts of the world pand rovided an opportunityto lis­ ten to papers that considered inscription as an icon as well as its context, function, and comparative features. Inaddition, the coordinators organized an exhibition of the works of several artists who were invited specifically to talk about their works. This exhibition started with the opening of the conference and continued into May. On display was a unique blend of tra­ ditional and modem uses of Arabic calligraphy--objects from the seventh century as well as those produced via contemporary technology. Habibeh Rahim, who is attached to Hofstra University's departmentof philosophy, and Alexej Ugrinsky of the Cultural Center, were the confer­ ence director and coordinator, respectively. The former initiated the idea and, with a committee of individuals, hosted the conference and exhibited a selection of Islamic art. This exhibition was supported further by perma­ nent displays in New York City at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the Pierpont Morgan Library, and the New York Public Library. The conference opened with prayers from each of the major religious traditions and two brief addresses by Habibeh Rahim and David Christman, the dean of New College and current director of Hofstra Museum.

  • The President and the Calligrapher: Arabic Calligraphy And
    1 AKPIA @ MIT - Studies on ARCHITECTURE, HISTORY & CULTURE The President and the Calligrapher: Arabic Calligraphy and Its Political Use Vlad Atanasiu In September 2000 news agencies reported that Saddam Hussein took delivery of a manuscript Qur’an written with his own blood. Reports con- tinued to come until the very end of his regime about the use of blood as a writing medium: to sign an oath of allegiance to the president, to mark referendum ballots, or to paint the president’s portraits. Horror and violence have long been integral parts of many arts, yet Ara- bic calligraphy is generally perceived as having preserved its grace and innocence, and belonging to a blissful realm away from the realities of this world. That this is not the case is made clear by a closer look at its history, where the relationship between art and power, between artists and the men in power, was a defining characteristic. It still holds true today, as exemplified by Saddam using calligraphy as a propaganda tool—which of course didn’t change the course of Arabic calligraphy, unlike his silencing of a couple of talented Iraqi calligraphers and the exile of others, some of whom ended up in the West founding new calligraphy schools. Compared to the prestige of Arabic calligraphy there is conspicuously little material available on contemporary cultural politics regarding this art form. Documentary limitations, however, should not detract from the need to study a relationship that isn’t obvious and which relies for its ef- fectiveness on the unawareness of the amateurs of calligraphy.

This lecture surveys some of the ways that artists used and embellished script to decorate buildings and objects for both religious and secular purposes. Wherever possible, examples will be drawn from the splendid range of works in the ongoing exhibition Gifts of the Sultan. Monday, August 22, 2011 9–10 am Paper and the Islamic Book Jonathan Bloom Although paper had been invented in China before the Common Era and carried by Buddhist monks and missionaries throughout East Asia, it was introduced to the Islamic lands when Muslims conquered Central Asia in the eighth century. This lecture will show how paper quickly replaced parchment and papyrus as the principal support for writing in the Islamic lands and spurred a burst of literary and artistic activity in the region. It will discuss different techniques of making paper, different types of paper, decorated papers, regional and chronological differences, and how European papers eventually replaced the local product. 10–10:30 Break 10:30–11:30 Pen and Ink: the Development of Islamic Calligraphy Shelia Blair Over the course of 1400 years, calligraphers in the Islamic lands naturally exploited different materials to make the most of different supports.
