DearĀ Space, Time and Orange County,

In addition to our regular programming this coming Saturday, I would like to strongly encourage you to attend the following specific session at the joint Wellek Lecture and Creativity, Cognition, Critique event this Friday.

2:00: Keynote 2: Teddy Cruz: Creativity and Critique in / as Urban Space
HG1030

Teddy Cruz, architect and urbanist (Professor of Visual Art, UCSD)
Introduced by Jesse Colin Jackson, Assistant Professor of Art, UCI and Amy Sanchez, MFA Candidate in Art, UCI
Teddy Cruz is recognized internationally for his urban research of the Tijuana-San Diego border, advancing border immigrant neighborhoods as sites of cultural production, from which to rethink urban policy, affordable housing and civic infrastructure.

You are of course encouraged to attend the entire Wellek Lecture and all of the CCC events — with the exception of those we conflict with on Saturday — but this session is of particular interest to our Seminar.

-Jesse
