WESTERN FRONT – Scrivener’s Monthly: Charles Mudede Presents “The Cinema of Human Morality”

Description:

This iteration of Scrivener’s Monthly featured an evening with writer, critic, and filmmaker Charles Mudede. Part lecture, part filmic journey, Mudede presented a forty-minute narrated tour through poetry, politics, and the environment to examine how questions of morality continue to riddle the human condition.

Scrivener’s Monthly was a series of public presentations that explored the space between material practices and spoken words. Set alongside exhibitions at Western Front, this experiment in “not publishing” involved readings, performances, and other articulations.

Video documentation of this event is available upon request.
