The Challenges of Localization
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | Fiction translation isn't a cut-and-dry science, and conveying the original spirit of the text through the prism of a different language and culture requires creativity and forethought. This talk will explore and discuss some of the challenges Japanese-to-English fiction translation often brings, using examples from both visual and non-visual mediaーand we'll have fun doing it.

Master Class with Douglas Kearney: "All Hooks: Repetition and Revision FTW"
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | In this master class, we will engage elements of repetition: chime, pun, and recursive constraints to engage poems that move even when they seem to stand still, work refrain till it don't stop, and catch you reading twice when you think you're only reading once.
