SUMMARY:MODfest 2025
DESCRIPTION:All MODfest events are free and open to the public. No reservations are necessary unless otherwise noted. Various venues at Vassar College\, 124 Raymond Ave.\, Poughkeepsie\, NY 12604 \nMODfest 2025\, “Discovering Uncertainty\,” explores the loss of certainty that is the legacy of the scientific and artistic developments of the early 20th century. In the realm of physics\, early investigations into the behavior of the electron found that it defied the laws of classical mechanics. Particles appeared to move discontinuously\, in violation of the laws of motion codified by Isaac Newton in the 1680s. The sub-atomic realm uncovered by quantum theorists was one of probability and contingency: of Uncertainty. At the same time\, musicians\, artists and writers of the European and American avant-garde were calling into question many of the artistic values that had held sway for generations: harmonic practice in music\, the use of figure and representation in art\, narrative structure and perspective in fiction. A new age sought new techniques; a creative uncertainty arose that has persisted to this day. MODfest 2025 highlights the presence of indeterminacy and digital technology in the music of the last hundred years and offers platforms for discussion of the widespread adoption throughout our society of technologies made possible by the discoveries of quantum theory. \n  \n—Events: January 31–February 9\, 2025\nDetails at: http://modfest2025.vassar.edu\n—Exhibitions beginning January 16 at the Palmer Gallery (Vassar College Main Building)\, as well as on\nview now at the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center\, Vassar College\, 124 Raymond Ave.\, Poughkeepsie\, NY\n12604. Exhibition closing dates vary. Details at: http://modfest2025.vassar.edu/#exhibits\n—MODfest opens January 31 at 5:30pm with a lecture in Taylor Hall titled “100 Years of Quantum\nUncertainty” by Associate Professor of Physics José Perillán\, and a choral presentation\, Stimmung\, by\nKarlheinz Stockhausen\, a 70-minute work for six singers to be held at Skinner Hall of Music at 7:30 p.m.\n—On Saturday\, February 1\, 7:30pm in Skinner Hall\, Dr. Daniel J. Levitin\, Professor of Psychology and\nNeuroscience\, McGill University\, will deliver a lecture on how music has been used throughout history for\nmedical purposes. Dr. Levitin will uncover the latest findings in this rapidly developing field on how music\ncan be used to treat injury and disease and promote wellness.

SUMMARY:Thrift 2 Fight: Fortifying Night
DESCRIPTION:We make a cozy spot at Thrift 2 Fight. There’s candlelight. There is hot tea and mulled wine. Everyone brings in a book with a quote that has moved them in the past month. What has comforted you? Fortified you? Brought clarity to something you didn’t even realize you had questions about? We want to hear that passage\, AND we want to hear what it has meant to you. It’s like a book group where everyone has read a different book. We can all learn something about each other by what depletes and what fuels us. We can grow stronger through learning. And\, we can add new books to our 2025 reading lists.\n\nWhen: February 7th\, 7-9pm\nWhere: at Thrift 2 Fight\nBring: your book with a chosen quote\, optional candle\, snack or drink to share

SUMMARY:HOMECOMING: A Sound Healing Journey
DESCRIPTION:HOMECOMING: A Sound Healing Journey\nFebruary 8\, 1:00pm\nLocation: GWI Greenhouse\, 65 St James Street\, Kingston \nHOMECOMING is an exploration of early African American music and sound meditation as binding and healing mediums. This sound journey will take participants through the not-so-distant past to the present juncture of time. \nThis offering reflects deep meditation\, an encounter with early prison work songs\, and contemplations on what we are learning about history. As we dive deeper into the music\, we can hear the elders speaking through time\, not to be discarded or ignored. This project is not the experience of all Black people in America but rather a snapshot or dream of forgotten voices made present. \nOne of the paths to finding healing is to be seen and heard. The experience of HOMECOMING allows us to explore the boundaries between sound and healing. We hope to expand on the voices and experiences unacknowledged\, unheard and unseen. \nSpace is limited. We ask that you register in advance and arrive by 12:45 pm\, as we will begin to open the space to others at 1:00 pm. \nINFO + REGISTRATION
