Mission
THE OREGON INSTITUTE FOR CREATIVE RESEARCH: E4 IS A NONPROFIT CORPORATION WHOSE PRIMARY PURPOSE IS TO OPERATE A HIGHER LEARNING AND RESEARCH INSTITUTION THAT ADVANCES WORK AT THE INTERSECTION OF ETHICS, STHETICS, ECOLOGY, AND EDUCATION, GIVEN THE FACT THAT THE CHALLENGES OF THE 21ST CENTURY ARE SO GREAT THAT NO SINGLE DOMAIN IN AND OF ITSELF IS CAPABLE OF ADEQUATELY ADDRESSING THEM. TOWARDS THIS END, OICR FOSTERS THINKERS AND MAKERS DEVOTED TO ADDRESSING SOCIAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, AND ECOLOGICAL PROBLEMS IN NEW AND INNOVATIVE WAYS-SCHOLARS, THEORISTS, RESEARCHERS, JOURNALISTS, DOCUMENTARIANS, SOCIAL-JUSTICE ADVOCATES, ARTISTS, WRITERS, AND POETS. THE INSTITUTE PROVIDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESEARCH, EDUCATION, CONFERENCES, ROUNDTABLES, COLLOQUIA, ARTIST RESIDENCIES, PUBLIC OUTREACH, AND SPECIAL PROJECTS.
Program accomplishments
- THE MAJOR SERVICE PROVIDED BY OICR IS TEACHING. HERE IS A REPRESENTATIVE SEMINAR: IN THE CRITICAL THEORY SEMINAR, STUDENTS ANALYZE NOTIONS OF CRITIQUE IN THE WORK AND LIFE OF MAJOR THINKERS, PAYING PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF THEORY AND PRACTICE, THOUGHT AND ACTION, FORM AND FEELING, MEDIUM AND MESSAGE, MATTER AND MEMORY, TIME AND EXPERIENCE, INTELLIGENCE AND THE SENSES, AESTHETICS AND REPRESENTATION IN RELATION TO TECHNOLOGICAL PROCEDURES, SOCIOLOGICAL CATEGORIZATION, POLITICAL PHENOMENA, AND THE CAPTURE AND CREATION OF LIVED REALITIES. WE BEGIN BY EXPANDING THE MEANING OF CONTEMPORANEITY AND GO ON TO EXAMINE HOW MEANING, INDIVIDUAL AND COLLECTIVE, IS MADE OR, CONVERSELY, UNMADE UNDER VARIOUS CONDITIONS. WE ARE INTERESTED PARTICULARLY IN GENERATING NEW MODES OF CRITIQUE AND JUDGMENT THAT WILL ALLOW US TO EVALUATE ANY NUMBER OF CONTEMPORARY PHENOMENA, INCLUDING THE NOTION OF JUDGMENT ITSELF, THE SUBJECT TO WHICH ARENDT DEVOTED THE LAST YEARS OF HER LIFE AND ABOUT WHICH SHE WAS WRITING AND THINKING SHORTLY BEFORE HER DEATH. STUDENTS CAN EXPECT TO READ AGAMBEN, ARENDT, BACHELARD, BAUDRILLARD, BENJAMIN, BERGSON, FLUSSER, FOUCAULT, LEVINAS, MCLUHAN, MERLEAU-PONTY, RANCIRE, AND SIMMEL.Expenses $66,902
