SUMMARY:The Sea Within Us: Caring for the Deep
DESCRIPTION:Co-presented with the UCLA Department of Media Arts and the UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability. \nTo celebrate the 75th anniversary of Rachel Carson’s award-winning and widely influential book\, The Sea Around Us\, an interdisciplinary group of Indigenous culture bearers\, scientists\, artists\, and ocean storytellers will address the legacy of DDT+\, industrial\, and radioactive waste dumping off the southern California coast. As a visionary marine biologist\, Carson represented the science of the ocean alongside an ethic of accountability to what she termed our “mother sea.” To Carson\, the ocean was a teacher\, agent\, and ancestor carried in our briny veins. \nThis panel will engage a wide range of perspectives about the cultures of ocean knowledge including Indigenous stewardship\, the history and science behind the contamination\, its impact on ocean ecosystems and marine mammals\, and how collectively we might chart a path toward healing and accountability through diverse practices of caring for the deep. \nPresenters \nLihini Aluwihare\, Professor\, UCSD Scripps Institution of Oceanography\nTina Orduno Calderon\, Culture bearer of the Tongva\, Chumash and Yoeme Indigenous People\nElizabeth DeLoughrey\, Professor\, UCLA Department of English and Institute of the Environment and Sustainability\nAlissa C.

SUMMARY:Out of Plain Sight
DESCRIPTION:Post-screening conversation with UCLA English Professor Elizabeth DeLoughrey\, UCLA Design Media Arts Professor Rebeca Méndez\, and the film’s co-director\, investigative journalist Rosanna Xia. \nCo-presented with the UCLA Department of Media Arts and the UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability. \nFrom the Los Angeles Times and Pulitzer Prize-finalist Rosanna Xia\, Out of Plain Sight is a cinematic exposé of an environmental disaster lurking just off the coast of Southern California. \nNot far from Catalina Island\, aboard one of the most-advanced research ships in the world\, David Valentine discovers a corroded barrel on the seafloor that gave him chills. The full environmental horror sharpens into greater clarity once he calls Xia\, who pieces together a shocking revelation: In the years after World War II\, as many as half a million barrels of toxic waste had been quietly dumped into the ocean—and the consequences continue to haunt the world today. \n2024\, Dir. Daniel Straub\, Rosanna Xia\, DCP\, color\, 94 min. \n \nQuestions about the event?\nVisit the Hammer Museum for full details.
