SUMMARY:Scope Lab Workshops
DESCRIPTION:Scope Lab is a workshop series focused on exploring code as a creative medium with which to understand and represent diverse perspectives. These studies are framed by the questions: “Whose perspectives are represented?”\, “Who has access to the tools to learn and express themselves?”\, and “How do we design tools and projects that are more inclusive?”. Each workshop will consist of hands-on programming exercises\, a lecture and discussion\, and projects developed collaboratively. We will be using a software platform called p5.js\, which is an open source JavaScript framework that makes creating visual media with code on the web accessible to artists\, designers\, educators\, and beginners. For questions or to sign up\, please write to scopelab@p5js.org.\n\nWHO IS SCOPE LAB?\nScope lab workshops are free and open for all UCLA students. Workshops may be attended on a drop-in basis\, but we do encourage students to come to the entire series. No prior coding knowledge is necessary\, all levels of experience are welcomed and encouraged. \nScope Lab is led by Lauren McCarthy\, Assistant Professor in the Design Media Arts Department and Miriam Posner\, Director of the Digital Humanities Program\, with Graduate Researchers Stalgia Grigg and Christina Yglesias. Collaborating groups and departments include UCLA Computer Science\, VoidLab (a feminist student collective in the Design Media Arts Department)\, UCLA Arts Software Studio\, and the NYU Ability Project. \n\n\nThe workshops will occur biweekly on Monday evenings\, from 5:30-7:30pm at the Broad Art Center\, room 3261A (New Mars). \nApril 10 | Uncertainty and Experimental Data Visualisation\nMiriam Posner (Digital Humanities) and Lauren McCarthy (Design Media Arts) \nApril 24 | Experimental Language Design\nAlessandro Warth (Computer Science) \nMay 8 | Feminist Artistic Strategies in Online Spaces\nVoidLab \nMay 22 | Multiperspectival Experimental Data Visualisation\nMiriam Posner (Digital Humanities) and Lauren McCarthy (Design Media Arts) \nJune 5 | Designing for Accessibility and Disability \nClaire Kearney-Volpe (NYU Ability Project) \n\n\nFURTHER READING\nCatherine D’Ignazio\, Lauren Klein\, Feminist Data Visualization\nShaka McGlotten\, Black Data\nJohanna Drucker\, 3DH Visualizations\nJohanna Drucker\, Humanities Approaches to Graphical Display\nMimi Onuoha\, Missing Data Sets\nMushon Zer-Aviv\, If Everything is a Network\, Nothing is a Network\nMelissa Gregg\, Inside the Data Spectacle\nKim Gallon\, Making a Case for the Black Digital Humanities  \n\n\nScope Lab is supported by a grant from the UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture and the UCLA Center for the Study of Women.

SUMMARY:CSW Research Affiliate Brown Bag: "Polar Environmental Discourses: Film\, Politics\, and Oil in the Anthropocene\," Lisa Bloom
DESCRIPTION:Polar Environmental Discourses:  Film\, Politics\, and Oil in the Anthropocene \nBring your lunch and join CSW Research Affiliates for a brown bag research presentation! \nRSVP ONLINE \nTaken from a book project titled Polar Aesthetics in the Anthropocene: Imagining Climate\, Lisa Bloom brings together issues in critical climate change scholarship to examine aspects of feminist and environmentalist polar art in the work of Brenda Longfellow. Focusing on oil drilling in the Alaskan Arctic\, this paper invites us to think about how conventional narratives about oil production and consumption\, science\, gender\, and race\, as well as attitudes towards nature\, technology\, and the wilderness are being reimagined through interactive documentaries in the early 21st century. \nLisa Bloom is the author of Gender on Ice: American Ideologies of Polar Expeditions (University of Minnesota Press\, 1993)\, the first critical book on the Arctic and Antarctic in the US written from a feminist and postcolonial perspective. Her other books include an edited anthology titled With Other Eyes: Looking at Race and Gender in Visual Culture (University of Minnesota Press\,1999) and Jewish Identities in U.S. Feminist Art: Ghosts of Ethnicity. (Routledge\, London\, 2006). She is currently a Research Affiliate at the Center for the Study of Women at UCLA. Her forthcoming book is titled: Imagining Climate: Art and Visual Culture of the Polar Regions in the Anthropocene.
