The Centre for Humanities Research (UWC) and the Encounters South African International Documentary Film Festival cordially invite you to the opening session of ENGAGE/REFLECT/CREATE: The CHR-Encounters Documentary Series, a monthly screening programme which will run from now until December 2025.The newly formed Proof of Life Trio, featuring CHR post-doctoral fellow Reza Khota on guitar, Asher Gamedze on drums and Sean Sanby on bass, will be improvising live to Charlie Chaplin’s 1936 silent film MODERN TIMES.The trio “attempts to bring together the composed idea that is at the same time endlessly malleable. Taking the phrase as a springboard into the unknown, or perhaps shared collective archive of grooves and affects. The only certainty is that every performance will be unrepeatable. The ensemble is also an offshoot of a collaboration between Khota and Gamedze in Free Music, Free Palestine. The name of the ensemble reflects on the imperative to improvise and think in the moment, as an antithesis to the new forms of techno-fascism, mechanisation and assimilation of the sensorium into the neoliberal order.” For more info link on bio : ...

Dear all,On Thursday 21 August, Maurits van Bever Donker will be in conversation (in person and online) with the University of Stellenbosch's Department of English about his monograph, Texturing Difference: “Black Consciousness Philosophy "and the “Script of Man”. Texturing Difference (2024), is available through Polity Press in the series Critical South with a Preface by Yala Kisukidi. It is located at the intersection of postcolonial and critical theory, literature and philosophy. In it, he situates the nuanced intervention of the Black Consciousness Movement in South Africa within the international conjuncture of anti-colonial thought and decolonisation. He makes the argument that the Black Consciousness Movement, in addition to its urgent political focus, should also be read as a philosophical intervention on the problem of Man that haunts the idea of race. ...
