SUMMARY:Active Color Perception; name a color\, blind the eye
DESCRIPTION:We have boxes of brightly colored pencils\, marking pens\, hex codes\, and seasonal fashions.  All of these give us access to color. But could it be that we are not seeing the whole picture in the color choices that are offered to us? The way many of us identify individual colors actually closes us off from the protean nature of color and from our abilities to interact with our color vision.  Color is not a thing; it is a relationship between. In this talk\, artist Rosy Lamb shares her research into color as a responsive language we all can learn to speak by listening\, and by attending to what our eyes see all around us.  Her reserach includes a prototype of a digital tool she is developing\, which allows users to intuitively build relational colors using a similar methodology to pigment mixing.

SUMMARY:Fresh\, Fly\, Fabulous: 50 Years of Hip Hop Style
DESCRIPTION:Over the last half century\, hip hop has taken over the world. Its beginning is marked by Cindy and Clive Campbell’s (aka DJ Kool Herc) legendary back-to-school party held in the Bronx on August 11\, 1973. Since that time\, hip hop has spread around the globe\, lending its influence to innumerable spaces. Style is one of the most pervasive and visible manifestations of the culture\, and twenty- first century fashion\, from luxury labels to everyday dress\, owes a debt to hip hop. Join Associate Curator Elizabeth Way to discuss her recent exhibition celebrating hip hop style at the Museum of the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT). Ms. Way will also discuss her curatorial specializations\, impactful Black designers in American fashion and the historical evolution of fashion systems rooted in American slavery.

SUMMARY:Faculty Research Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Miranda Yaver\, Assistant Professor of Political Science n for an upcoming Faculty Research Talk\, Damages Denied: The Impact of ERISA’s Statutory Design on Patients’ Access to Health Care. \nPresenters will begin by discussing their topic\, and each session will close with a question and answer segment. All presentations are virtual and free and the Zoom link will be sent the day before this discussion. \nDespite being written primarily as a pension law\, the Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974 has come to apply to the majority of employer-sponsored health plans in the United States. However\, despite its health care salience\, it has a key statutory design feature that limits patients’ ability to access their prescribed care: it precludes damages recovery for those who have been denied health coverage\, an insurance practice that is pervasive and increasing. The absence of litigation incentives creates perverse incentives for insurers because it makes it all the more unlikely that patients will be able to obtain legal representation\, such that insurers may deny with impunity. Drawing on extant literature on path dependence and on ERISA’s history and implementation\, legislative history\, and interviews with key congressional staffers\, this paper evaluates this statutory design’s persistence across moments of health care reform including the Patients’ Bill of Rights and the Affordable Care Act\, and the ways in which this can not only limit patients’ rights upon a coverage denial but exacerbates inequities in the American health care system and reduces health insurer accountability in a manner that can perpetuate the denials themselves. \nRegister
