When:
Tuesday, June 7, 2022
3:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Where:
Agnes Etherington Art Centre
Room: Etherington House
Find on Campus Map
Description:

Roots & routes is a durational performance by Kama La Mackerel, where they bring together ritual, chant, movement, poetry and storytelling to explore the roots and the routes of Black people who have spread across the global diaspora, often through forced displacement. Inspired by conversations Kama La Mackerel has sustained over months with chef and culinary artist Marissa Leon-John, this performance-in-installation brings the queer/trans Black body in relationship to the earth in what becomes a pilgrimage, where limbs, skin and muscles map new cartographies into the tastes, smells and textures of the soil. Drop into this free performance.

Overview: Psychological safety (PS) is ’the degree to which people view their environment as conducive to interpersonal risky behaviours like speaking up or asking for help’ (Edmondson 2016).  When present, individuals feel valued and team performance is optimized, but when absent, individual and team health and performance suffer.  Psychological safety is key to a nurturing learning environment, allowing learners, faculty and other healthcare workers to thrive. Application of a conceptual framework for PS enables recognition of existing barriers and potential interventions for improvement, ultimately leading to better health and wellbeing for patients/families, learners and providers.

Exhibition opening, Textus-Texts-Textiles: fabric bookworks of Lise Melhorn-Boe

When:
Friday, May 27, 2022
1:00 PM – 2:00 PM
Where:
Douglas Library
Room: W.D. Jordan Rare Books and Special Collections
Find on Campus Map
Description:

We invite you to the official opening of our new exhibition, Textus-Texts-Textiles: Fabric Bookworks by Lise Melhorn-Boe, at W.D. Jordan Rare Books and Special Collections, Queen’s University Library, on Friday, May 27, 2022, 1:00-2:00 pm

Textus-Texts-Textiles explores the relationship between texts and textiles, through a feminist lens, via the fabric bookworks of Kingston artist, Lise Melhorn-Boe, supplemented by books as cultural texts and technological artifacts from the collections of W. D. Jordan Rare Books and Special Collections at Queen’s University Library. The exhibition runs from May 6 to September 9, 2022.

The sewn bookworks of Lise Melhorn-Boe encapsulate the relationship between tangible objects and the written word through the medium of book art.  The bookworks featured in this exhibition were inspired by the poetry of Lorna Crozier, Terry Ann Carter, Hazel Hall, Alice Moore Dunbar-Nelson, Diane Dawber, Alexandra Cussons, and Bronwen Wallace. In imagining and crafting material representations of feminist poetry, Melhorn-Boe reminds us that handmade books, in their plethora of forms, are vessels of humanized content. 

The exhibition was co-curated by Brendan Edwards, Curator of Rare Books and Special Collections at Queen’s University Library, and Ella Heiss, undergraduate student in HIST212 (Experiential Learning in Historical Perspectives).

Ingenuity Labs Invited Guest Lecture: Graeme Moffat: Neurotech at scale in the Metaverse

Friday, May 27, 2022
1:30 PM – 2:30 PM

Room: 395

Description:

Neurotech at scale in the Metaverse

Abstract: Recent rapid growth in the neurotechnology sector and in brain-computer interface research could create wonders. It may also presage pitfalls, not only for end users of these technologies, but for many scientists and startups whose efforts risk running down blind alleys and into dead ends. In this talk I will survey the landscape of emerging brain-machine interfaces, with an emphasis on building and proving out consumer scale technologies and how these might (and do) interact with virtual worlds and robotics.

Bio: Dr. Graeme Moffat is a co-founder and scientist with System2 Neurotechnology. Prior to this, he served as Chief Scientist and VP of Regulatory Affairs at Interaxon, makers of the world’s bestselling electroencephalography platform, Muse, as Chief Scientist with Sciencescape (later Chan-Zuckerberg Meta), and as Managing Editor of Frontiers in Neuroscience. He is a Senior Fellow at the Munk School of Public Policy (at the University of Toronto), a member of the board of the Ontario Centre of Innovation, and an advisor to the OECD’s neurotechnology policy initiative.
