SUMMARY:CAA Lecture: Jovencio de la Paz - CANCELED
DESCRIPTION:*Due to inclement weather reports\, Jovencio de la Paz's visit 
 and lecture are canceled*\n\nJovencio de la Paz explores the interrelated 
 histories of computer programming and hand-weaving by creating specialized
  computer software\, algorithms\, and other computational contexts for the
  Thread Controller 2 (TC2) Digital Jacquard Loom. Trained as a hand-weaver
  but reveling in the complexities and contradictions of digital culture\, 
 de la Paz works to find relationships between concerns of language\, embod
 iment\, pattern\, and code with broad concerns of ancient technology\, sci
 ence fiction\, utopian versus dystopian vision\, speculative futures\, and
  the phenomenon of emergence. This lecture will provide an overview of th
 e artist's work\, as well as explore their research into the history of co
 mputer technology from the standpoint of weaving.\n\nJovencio de la Paz is
  an artist\, weaver\, and educator. Their current work explores the inters
 ecting histories of weaving and modern computers. Rhyming across millenia\
 , the stories of weaving and computation unfold as a space of speculation.
  Trained in traditional processes of weaving\, dye\, and stitch-work\, but

 tive futures\, and the phenomenon of emergence. Jovencio is currently Assi
