<P><B>Hanna Rose Shell</B>, a historian and media artist, is
as Assistant Professor in the Program on Science, Technology
and Society at MIT. In the first part of tomorrow's talk,
Shell introduces “how not to be seen” in terms of the
aspiration for, and actualization of concealment in both
filmic and natural ecologies through mixed-media practices
that simultaneously incorporate and subvert the photographic
media of reconnaissance. In the second part, Shell screens and
discusses her film-in-progress, called<SPAN

the phenomenology of camouflage.<SPAN

blind as in that actively constructed structure intended for
the concealment of a hunter from her game. Shell’s

Studies colloquium series provides an intimate and informal
exchange between a visiting speaker and CMS faculty, students,
visiting scholars and friends. Each week during the term, we
host a figure from academia, industry, or the art world to
speak about their work and its relation to our studies. These
sessions are free, open to the public, and serve as an
excellent introduction to the Comparative Media Studies
program.<BR></TD>
