We are delighted to invite you to a slow seminar discussion of Cynthia Fowler’s Biosocial synchrony on Sumba: multispecies relationships and environmental variations in Indonesia. We are fortunate to have SEACoast Postdoctoral Fellow, Dr. Joseph Klein open the discussion with a few thoughts and questions. Dr. Klein’s dissertation looked at the Indonesian live coral trade supplying the global aquarium industry–focused on divers working in the coastal hinterlands around Kendari and across Southeast Sulawesi; he has also looked at land reclamation, bomb fishing, nickel mining, and other processes of coastal transformation, and is interested in the histories of war and commerce that have shaped movement patterns around maritime Eastern Indonesia.
Due to overwhelming registration for virtual participation, this event will be hosted entirely on zoom.
Please register here for the zoom link, and contact seacoast@ucsc.edu if you have any questions.
If this is your first time hearing about a Slow Seminar, we invite you to read our explainer and check out past seminars.
