The Arts Research Center at UC Berkeley has organized Temporal Shifts as part of the yearlong Time Zones event series, in conjunction with a residency at the Arts Research Center by renowned Taiwanese playwright/director/filmmaker Stan Lai. This daylong interdisciplinary symposium brings together scholars, artists, and curators to discuss questions of temporality as they are articulated in time-based art forms such as cinema, sound, dance, and performance across China and Taiwan. Featured speakers include cutting-edge artists from China and Taiwan, as well as distinguished scholars from UC Berkeley, Stanford, USC, Duke, and Zhejiang University. A full roster of participants and a detailed symposium schedule is available at http://arts.berkeley.edu/events/temporalshifts.html.
