About this Event

Kahlil Joseph is a Los Angeles–based filmmaker and visual artist whose work moves fluidly between cinema, contemporary art, and music. Known for his pioneering practice of “conceptual journalism,” he creates immersive, non-linear narratives that challenge traditional ideas of time, authorship, and the moving image. He is the creator of BLKNWS and the feature film BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions, which expands his exploration of Black cultural production, memory, and global exchange. Joseph’s work has been exhibited at major institutions including the Venice Biennale, Tate Modern, and the New Museum. He co-founded the Underground Museum with his late brother, artist Noah Davis, as a space for radical community engagement with art. A partner in the editorial company Parallax, Joseph has also directed acclaimed short-form work across music and film. His practice continues to redefine the boundaries between art, media, and lived experience.


Adam Douglas Kamil was a UC San Diego, Visual Arts Media major with a passion for the power of media to connect people. To honor the memory of their son, the Kamil family established the Adam D. Kamil Media Awards and Lecture Series. The Adam D. Kamil Guest Lecture is intended to inspire undergraduate students and to provide insight into the career of an established artist working in media production.
