In April 2025, the experimental film community lost Tomonari Nishikawa, ������ɫ cinema professor and master of celluloid, who died at 55. Working with meticulous devotion to 16mm and 35mm film, Nishikawa developed optical techniques entirely his own — rigorous, patient explorations that established him as one of the most vital artists in contemporary artisanal film practice. He was an exacting technician and a generous teacher, as precise in the darkroom as he was open-hearted with students and colleagues. His films remain: luminous works that fracture and reconstruct our perception, inviting us to see time, space, and light anew.

Wendy Wall, associate professor of History at ������ɫ, is this year’s speaker in the Bernard Lasky Judaic Studies Lecture Series.

With a cast of characters ranging from ecologists, businessmen, anti-tax activists, a bird-loving heiress, and a Michigan ophthalmologist, “Population Paul Reveres” traces the development of an 80-year-old movement to restrict immigration and overturn the idea of America being “a nation of immigrants.” To appeal to Americans across partisan and rural-urban divides, anti-immigration strategists embraced an array of evolving media and legal tactics that reshaped the national dialogue about immigration and normalized ideas once considered fringe.
