DESCRIPTION:Cultivated: Plants\, Hair and the Aesthetic of Control\n\nJeffr
 ey Hoelle\, Professor of Anthropology\, University of California\, Santa B
 arbara\n\nIn this talk\, Jeffrey Hoelle traces the imprint of cultivation 
 across the naturally growing covers of the land and body—plants and hair. 
 The presentation builds directly from research in agricultural fields and 
 cattle pastures at the edge of the Amazon rainforest to domestic landscape
 s and hair salons in frontier Brazilian cities and beyond. Where tangled f
 orest once stood\, clean pastures and ordered crops now sit on properties 
 with geometric edges. This imprint leads directly to the human body\, wher
 e hair\, like plant growth\, is cut\, trimmed\, and otherwise managed. See
 mingly separate domains of agriculture\, landscaping\, and personal groomi
 ng are shown to be governed by a similar aesthetic of control. This unique
  pairing of land and body expands our understanding of cultivation as a pr
 actice and an ideology that operates in frontier Amazonia and closer to ho
 me. It influences how we conceptualize the covers that grow on and around 
 us\, and our imagined relations with nature in the future. Hoelle argues t
 hat we must understand this system of thought and its role in environmenta
 l destruction and social inequality.\n
