In her experimental multi-media exhibit “Nostalgic Technologies,” on display in the Transit Gallery of CGIS South until April 10, Boym manipulates technology to reevaluate photographs from her travels throughout Europe and America.

...Allston are intended to be University-wide facilities, and almost all of the new buildings will include space for teaching undergraduates.

...enjoy music. Sometimes I even like to listen to music at an appreciable volume and “rock out.” No, the problem is not the idea of music, but the fact that the songs chosen are, inevitably, the flat-out worst songs possible. Walking to CGIS from the yard and being forced to listen to Punjabi MCs for five straight minutes? What about being forced to listen to “Don’t Break My Heart” while calmly strolling over to Fly-By? Arguments in favor of waterboarding appear far more logical...
