Dispatches from Home and the Field during the COVID-19 Pandemic
This volume, written in a readable and enticing style, is based on a simple premise, which was to have several exceptional ethnographers write about their experiences in an evocative way in real time during the COVID-19 pandemic. Rather than an edited volume with dedicated chapters, this book thus offers a new format wherein authors write several, distinct dispatches, each short and compact, allowing each writer's perspectives and stories to grow, in tandem with the pandemic itself, over the course of the book. Leaving behind the trope of the lonely anthropologist, these authors come together to form a collective of ethnographers to ask important questions, such as: What does it mean to live...

Radical Light
"A superb collection, as exciting, in many ways, as the works it chronicles."--Akira Mizuta Lippit, author of Atomic Light (Shadow Optics)
The Possible
The Possible is an experimental catalog/artist's book created in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name on view at the UC Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive in the spring of 2014. Combining studio, classroom, library, gallery, and stage, The Possible offered a new model of museum exhibition. Rather than bringing together a group of existing artworks, artist/curator David Wilson hosted a convergence of over one hundred artists and collectives--with "artist" understood in the broadest sense. The BAM/PFA galleries were transformed into studios--ceramics, dye, recording, and print--as "platforms for making" that were actively used and reshaped by both guest artists and museum ...
Letters as Films
