Volcanoes may or may not have something to do with tonight’s lecture at Main Street Museum. Credit: Courtesy of Main Street Museum
White River Junction’s iconoclastic Main Street Museum continues two traditions this evening. The first is its First Friday lecture series; the second, the overthrow of everything you thought you knew about museums.

The museum is hosting a “lecture/performance” on “Fuckology,” a putative discipline that borrows its unusual name from oft-impenetrable philosopher Gilles Deleuze. Speaking at the event is the scholar/philosopher Robert Craig Baum, who draws on the works of none other than Lady Gaga in his talk about “corporate personhood”; and the pseudonymous Nikolai Adjunctski on the crisis in American higher education.

The lecture also has something to do with volcanoes, we think.
