Quentin's Weeknotes 9/11/22-9/17/22

This Week:

  • In my class, we talked about pottery, with a particular focus on pottery made by Haudenosaunee and Algonkian-speaking peoples of the Northeastern US.
  • I made some plans for future programs and events at the Museum.
  • I bought a copy of Richard Thompson’s 2015 album “Still” which is as gorgeously written and played as anything I’ve ever heard from him.
  • With my family, I travelled to Toronto to celebrate the birthday of my mother in law.
  • I attended a DEI meeting on Indigenous issues at Hartwick.
  • I finished reading “Homuncula” by John Henri Nolette. It was a sprawling horror genre-study with a healthy dollop of early 20th century anarchist politics thrown in. A bit long for my tastes, but a really interesting idea.
