“Hudson River Undercover” explores how working-class recreation and private surveillance collided aboard Hudson River steamboat excursions during the early twentieth century. The talk focuses on an investigation report written mere weeks after the onset of federal wartime alcohol prohibition in July 1919 by an undercover agent working for New York’s Committee of Fourteen, an influential private anti-vice organization backed by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Held in the Manuscripts and Archives Division of the New York Public Library, the investigation report reveals how wage-earning women articulated femininity and sought out individual freedoms, companionship, pleasure, and romance via Hudson River steamboat excursions at a time when authorities were particularly anxious to monitor and control working women’s leisure activities.Presented by Austin Gallas. Austin&nbsp;writes about US history, focusing on urban moral reform&nbsp;efforts, private surveillance, and the politics of leisure culture during the Progressive Era. Austin holds a PhD in Cultural Studies from George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, where he teaches in the School of Integrative Studies. His work has been published in The Journal of the History of Sexuality, Lateral: Journal of the Cultural Studies Association, and Literary Journalism Studies.

Skinner Hall

Featuring Soundpainting Inventor Walter Thompson and Artists from Around the World. In Collaboration with Strike Anywhere Performance Ensemble and Soundpainting Thinktank.
An Evening of Soundpainting is a dynamic, one-night-only performance featuring Soundpainting creator Walter Thompson alongside an international cohort of musicians, actors, dancers, and visual artists. The event marks the culmination of the Soundpainting Thinktank, a week-long gathering of artists from over a dozen countries engaged in intensive collaboration, performance, and research.
The concert will feature a series of live-composed Soundpaintings. Soundpainting is the universal, multidisciplinary sign language for live composition, used by musicians, actors, dancers, and visual artists. With more than 1,500 gestures, the language allows composers to shape work in real time—nothing is pre-planned, and each piece is created in the moment and will never be repeated.
An Evening of Soundpainting tickets are free. Tickets can be reserved beginning on June 11, 2026.
