SUMMARY:From Rapid Response to a Longitudinal Study of War Experiences
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to attend this lecture by Dr. Natalia Otrishchenko\, visiting scholar from Ukraine\, presented in collaboration with the Department of Sociology Speaker Series. \nIn early 2022\, Ukrainian scholars faced a need to react rapidly\, both personally and professionally\, to the unprecedented reality of a full-scale Russian war of aggression. Natalia will speak about the international documentation initiative “24/02/22\, 5 am: Testimonies from the War”—an interviewing project that the Center for Urban History (privately founded academic NGO in Lviv\, Ukraine) started with research institutions from Poland\, Luxembourg\, Germany\, and the UK. \nIn 2024\, the project entered the second phase: interviewing the same cohort of people whose stories we recorded in 2022. Although the initiative arose under extraordinary circumstances\, it is inspired by many traditions: oral history\, trauma-informed and feminist scholarship\, Indigenous methodologies\, and critical archival studies. Natalia will describe how the rapid response documentation turned into the longitudinal project and emphasise that work within protracted uncertainty should include reflection on future scenarios. \nEvent Contact

SUMMARY:Folklore Lecture Series at the Kule Folklore Centre
DESCRIPTION:“Music & Comics: An intermedia lecture-recital exploring a music-based graphic narrative” \nJoin us on January 23\, 2026\, for the next Kule Folklore Lecture with Illia Pokotylo\, an\nMA graduate in Media and Cultural Studies\, MLCS. \nHow does music influence image and story? In this lecture-recital\, Illia Pokotylo will present Borys Liatoshynsky: A Life in Reflections (2025) — a graphic narrative about the Ukrainian composer that he co-created with visual artist Ihor Tvoronovych. The talk will explore how musical ideas can be reimagined through the visual language of comics\, using A Life in Reflections as a central example. The presentation will conclude with a live performance of excerpts from Liatoshynsky’s piano cycle “Reflections\,” which served as a foundational music piece for the creation of the graphic narrative. \n🗓 January 23\, 2026\n🕙 12 p.m. MDT\n📍 Student Lounge\, Old Arts Building\, University of Alberta\n💳Free admission (please register!) \n🔗 RSVP here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/music-comics-exploring-a-music-based-graphic-narrative-tickets-1980292955538?aff=ebdssbdestsearch \nIllia Pokotylo is a recent graduate of the Master’s program in Media and Cultural Studies at the University of Alberta. Originally from Kyiv\, he completed his Bachelor’s degree in Ethnomusicology at the National Academy of Music of Ukraine. This interdisciplinary program shaped his initial interest in conducting research on how music — in its broad sense — is represented across non-sounding artistic media. During his Master’s program at the University of Alberta\, Illia examined the representation of music in graphic narratives such as comics and graphic novels\, which led to the creation of Borys Liatoshynsky: A Life in Reflections.
