check out this gem from the 90s, in full on YouTube.

"In 1990, Miller wrote and presented a joint BBC/Canadian production entitled, Born Talking: A Personal Inquiry into Language. The four-part series looked into the acquisition of language, and complexities surrounding language production, with special focus on sign language used by deaf people. This interest was contemporaneous with his friend Oliver Sacks' immersion in, and writing/publishing a book about Deaf Culture and deaf people entitled Seeing Voices. Miller then wrote and presented the television series Madness (1991) and Jonathan Miller on Reflection (1998). The five-part Madness series ran on PBS in 1991. It featured a brief history of madness and interviews with psychiatric researchers, clinical psychiatrists, and patients in therapy sessions. In 1992, Opera Omaha staged the United States premiere of the Gioachino Rossini's 1819 opera Ermione, directed by Miller." (Wikipedia)

Please note that CLIC-GSA has decided to cancel the 26th Annual Conference on Language, Interaction and Culture, which was scheduled to be held April 23-25, 2020 at UCLA. Given the high number of participants traveling both internationally and domestically, and the warnings issued against non-essential travel in light of the outbreak of COVID-19, we feel it necessary to cancel this year’s conference.

We have tried to balance our deep desire to hold an intellectually stimulating and productive student conference with the need to ensure our participants’ safety and health. The organizing team has exerted great effort to make this year’s conference the best one yet, and we are truly sorry to have to cancel.

We truly regret the inconvenience that this has caused. We look forward to seeing you at future conferences.
