Description
Using legal archives and material traces of law in social science research
A symposium in conversation with historians and a follow on student workshop
7 and 8 March 2019
It is mesmerising the world of crystals that lurks in surprising places around us. Have you ever asked yourself, where can I find them? How do they form and what is actually going on? Come and create your own microscopic crystalline compositions under the guidance of molecular biologist and crystallography artist Waad Albawardi. Learn more from soft matter physicist, Carmen Morcillo Perez about the physics behind the different crystals that emerge.
Explore what we know about why bacteria and viruses are difficult to kill, otherwise known as Anti Microbial Resistance (AMR). Through discussion and exploration of these microbes, discover resistance for yourself and how it relates to our world today. Led by medical anthropologist Iona Walker of the BEYOND RESISTANCE Network, architect Nikoletta Karastathi and clinician and researcher Dr Tandogdu.
Join Intermedia and Performance artist Ayshia during the Festival of Creative Learning for a workshop exploring the beauty and benefits of sympathetic (maternal/safe) touch and vocal release.
How do we make our home in an ever-changing world, teeming with living and non-living things? Join us in a hands-on exploration of thousands-of-years-old archaeological sediments that embody histories of long-inhabited landscapes, and of the unseen, often forgotten microorganisms that mediate landscape processes and keep our ecosystem healthy and happy.
This event is currently fully booked, but please add your name to the waiting list on the Eventbrite page via the waiting list button. If a place becomes available we will contact you, but this will also help us gauge interest in running the event again.
The School of Scottish Studies Archive is a public archive and is open Tuesday to Friday, between 10am and 4pm.
At this event, you'll have the opportunity to explore a live-coding environment called Supercollider. This language, though quite technical, enables performers to write software in real-time and to share what they're creating with audiences as it happens. You can find out more about Joanne's work here: https://joannnne.github.io/, or you may prefer to attend her concert as part of the Algobabez at ECA's West Court the evening after her workshop where she will work closely with her band partner Shelly Knots. That concert starts at 8pm.
The moment you leave your home, you enter into a dialogue with the urban fabric. Have you ever asked yourself, how much your moods are influenced by the city?
In this session, we want to change our relationship with the city, in a way that it turns into the narrative of happiness in our everyday lives.
Does that sound good to you?! Then come along for deep discussions, interactive debate and hands-on activities! Don’t forget to tell your friends and share this page!
Who should attend?
Shelly is hosting a workshop on live-coding visuals using Hydra - https://hydra-editor-v1.glitch.me/ -
Hydra is a platform for live coding visuals in Javascript, in which each connected browser window can be used as a node of a modular and distributed video synthesizer.
Inspired by analog modular synthesizers, these tools are an exploration into using streaming over the web for routing video sources and outputs in realtime.
