Join this academic adventure to see how much of Kyushu’s history can be experienced over two and a half weeks. From hiking among 2000-year-old cedar trees along a seventeenth-century logging highway on the off-shore island of Yakushima to visiting a World War Two museum on the edge of a former kamikaze training ground\, traveling on Kyushu offers unexpected experiences with Japan’s culture. \n  URL:/libraries/event/kyushu-in-world-history-or-what-i-did-on-my-summer-vacation/ LOCATION:American Geographical Society Library\, Golda Meir Library\, 2311 E.

Since its debut in 1955 the AI brand has been attached to a rotating cast of technologies with only loose connections to each other or to cognition\, none of which has yet come close to delivering on the promise of creating computer systems with human-like intelligence. One AI insider characterized the story of AI as “the history of failed ideas.” Yet in the process of failing\, early AI researchers made vital but incidental contributions to the development of computer technology and computer science. In this talk\, Thomas Haigh will explore where the AI brand came from\, why it was so attractive to researchers and sponsors\, and how artificial intelligence institutionalized as a subfield of computer science through research labs\, curricula\, textbooks\, and professional associations. Haigh will also document continuities and discontinuities between our own moment and earlier cycles of AI hype and disillusionment.\n\n\nRegister here: /libraries/digital-humanities/dh-lab-events/dh-event-registration-artificial-intelligence-the-history-of-a-brand-2/ URL:/libraries/event/artificial-intelligence-the-history-of-a-brand/ LOCATION:American Geographical Society Library\, Golda Meir Library\, 2311 E.

She will give a visually led talk about her many-year research process\, about her recently published fourth book\, As Ever\, Miriam (2024). This book centers on the relationship and lives of Charlotte Russell Partridge (1882-1975) and Miriam Frink (1892-1978)\, whose papers are housed at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Archives. Through her extensive archival and secondary research involving books\, magazines\, newspapers\, and interviews\, Levine brings readers into the work of connecting archival traces to tell stories about past lives. Frink and Partridge’s impact on Milwaukee’s cultural landscape was unprecedented and remains underrecognized\, and Levine’s lecture will encourage future scholarship and conversations around deeper knowledge of their legacy. \nLevine is currently based in the Hudson Valley in New York. She has been in service to the arts for over twenty years\, many of those during her previous time living in Wisconsin. Her creative labor intersects with curatorial projects\, writing\, documentary film\, and community events. \nDuring the week\, Levine’s day job is the Hauser & Wirth Institute Archivist and Collections Manager for Women’s Studio Workshop\, a residency and artist book publisher that supports women\, trans\, queer\, intersex\, and nonbinary artists. Her position focuses on WSW’s work as a hub for radical thought\, and she manages\, oversees\, and increases public visibility of the archives and special collections through public engagement and exhibitions. \nA related exhibition\, Time is Running Out\, curated by Levine in response to her archival research\, will open at the Lynden Sculpture Garden on November 15\, 2025\, and run through March 14\, 2026. \nBooks can be purchased and signed at the close of the program courtesy of Lion’s Tooth URL:/libraries/event/fact-fiction-and-storytelling-in-the-archive/ LOCATION:American Geographical Society Library\, Golda Meir Library\, 2311 E.
