+ Until the End of the World by Wim Wenders.
When: Scotiabank Nuit Blanche, September 29, 2012
Location: Toronto City Hall – Council Chambers
Facebook Event Page
Nuit Blanche Project Page
Three world renowned philosophers consider the profound ecological and economic issues that confront the planet in 2012. The symposium is inspired by the Wim Wenders film of the same title, Until the End of the World. The director’s cut will be screened after the last talk. The symposium is organized by Christine Davis, Janine Marchessault and Scott MacKenzie (Symposium host) for the journal PUBLIC: Art/Culture/Ideas. This intense symposium explores a shift from global consciousness to planetary awareness in a world of radical interdependencies where ecology must win out over political economy, where a history of the world must become a history of the Earth. The symposium explores the very concept and reality (ecology and economy) of end times. What does it mean to say that the world is ending? Has capitalism come to an end? What is left behind?
Scott MacKenzie, the Symposium Host is a Visiting Research Fellow at the Robarts Centre of Canadian Studies, York University. He is co-editor of Cinema and Nation (2000), Purity and Provocation: Dogma ’95 (2003) and The Perils of Pedagogy: The Works of John Greyson (2013), author of Screening Québec: Québécois Moving Images, National Identity and the Public Sphere (2004) and Guy Debord(forthcoming). He is currently completing Film Manifestoes and Global Cinema Cultures, an anthology of over 150 film manifestoes from 1898 to the present.
Panel 1 – Techne – 7:30 – 8:45 PM
Presenter: Arthur Kroker, Moderator: Susan Ruddick
Techne speaks to the circular and dynamic presentation of knowledge. How do we know of end times and the end? Is the end always present, yet never reached? This panel explores the question of how we know of the end.
Arthur Kroker is a Canada Research Chair in Technology, Culture and Theory, Professor of Political Science, and the Director of the Pacific Centre for Technology and Culture (PACTAC) at the University of Victoria. His recent publications include The Will to Technology and the Culture of Nihilism: Heidegger, Nietzsche, and Marx (University of Toronto Press) and Born Again Ideology: Religion, Technology and Terrorism.
Susan Ruddick is Associate Professor in the Geography Department at the University of Toronto. Her areas of research include social policy, identity and reproduction within the urban political economy with a focus on youth, children and marginalized groups. Her translation of Hegel or Spinoza by Pierre Macherey is forthcoming.
Panel 2 – Bios – 9:15 – 10:45 PM
Presenter: Brenda Longfellow, Moderator: Kenneth Rogers
The notion of the end is central to any concept of bios. All biology ends, but will all of biology end at the same time? This panel explores biological and ecological end times.
Brenda Longfellow is Associate Professor of Film Studies and Production at York University. She is co-editor of Gendering the Nation: Canadian Women Filmmakers (1999) and The Perils of Pedagogy: The Works of John Greyson (2013).

Panel 3 – Capital – 11:00 PM – 12:30 AM
Presenter: Slavoj Žižek, Moderator: Matthew Flisfeder
Capital is, in essence, the engine that drives end times, pushing biology, ecology, and the planet to the brink. This last panel explores these issues: are we heading towards the end of capital or is capital heading us toward the end of the world?

Film Screening – Until the End of the World, Wim Wenders – 1:00 AM
Until The End of the World is an odyssey for the modern age. As with Homer’s Odyssey, the purpose of the journey is to restore sight — a spiritual reconciliation between an obsessed father and a deserted son. Dr. Farber, in trying to find a cure for his wife’s blindness, has created a device that allows the user to send images directly to the brain, enabling the blind to see. The creation and operation of such a machine is in stark contrast to a deteriorating global situation, where the continued existence of mankind is under threat from a nuclear powered satellite that is falling toward earth.
