For alliances with the beaver people features an 11 meter-long embroidered tapestry that illustrates key moments in the history of beaver-human relationships, tracing how rivers evolve through collaborations between these two species. An explicit reference to the 11th-century Bayeux Tapestry that depicted 58 unique scenes of battle, Husky’s work uses this tapestry form to visualize cross-species mutuality and regeneration rather than battle. The exhibition also features a documentary film about the Vermont naturalist Patti Smith, who takes us into her world of beaver friends and teachers. For the exhibition reception on February 12, Husky will be joined by a panel of researchers, writers, and naturalists (including Patti Smith) to discuss beaver ecologies and the future of their watersheds.In collaboration with Picker Art Gallery.

Act II of a new epic, History of Life is a wild, enthralling 6-hour musical event in total — a folk revival, a rock concert, a communal feast, and a meditation on all that has lived and all that has died in this world. More than just a performance, History of Life is a celebration — like a wedding or a wake — that bears witness to the vast, beautiful, violent, manyvoiced history of life on Earth. Through music and words, in story and song, History of Life offers the rare opportunity to abide in wonder and to look upon the world as though seeing it for the first time.

Although syntactic elements of music (notes, scales, etc.) are integral to all pathways of music education, the fundamental question music theory asks is not “what?”, but “why?” Out of an almost limitless palette of possibilities, why these notes? Why these chords? Why these keys? This talk illustrates this “why?” through analysis of three very different pieces—Richard Strauss’ opera Elektra (1909), Florence Price’s Piano Sonata in E minor (ca. 1932), and Stephen Schwartz’ musical Wicked (2003). My analytical interactions with these works intersect with issues of psychology, African American cultural heritage, and dramatic structure, and invite the audience to consider how an in-depth understanding of music and theory can reveal subtle yet meaningful connections between sounds, people, ideas, and societies across eras, genres, and cultural practices.
