Chambers movement based practice are found in collaborative creation, close observation, and the idea of choreography as living archive.

When she was 13, she left home to attend Quinte Ballet School of Canada in Belleville, Ontario, where she undertook her professional training for the next five years. Now an independent contemporary dance artist, she has spent the past 20 or so years in Toronto/Tkaronto and so-called Vancouver (on the unceded Indigenous territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations) wearing almost every "hat" a person can wear in the community, (performer, choreographer, administrator, volunteer, producer, presenter, educator, outside eye, probably a couple other things). She works regularly for local artists Company 605, Justine A. Chambers and Tara Cheyenne Performance, amongst others, as well as being in her eighth season as Associate Artistic Director of four-year post-secondary contemporary dance program Modus Operandi, where she has the responsibility and privilege of teaching a small, dedicated, passionate group of younger dance artists.  Kate has taught Yoga and Pilates mat work in the past.    About Tara:   Tara Cheyenne Friedenberg, is an award winning creator, performer, choreographer, director, writer, and artistic director of Tara Cheyenne Performance, working across disciplines in film, dance, theatre, and experimental performance.

This week on Below the Radar we're joined by Sanem Güvenç, a scholar, psychoanalyst, and university professor, as well as co-president of the Vancouver-based psychoanalytic society Lacan Salon. Together they discuss friendship, authoritarianism, teaching, and how Sanem reads the works of various philosophers, with a focus on how she got into Lacan. Full episode details: https://www.sfu.ca/vancity-office-community-engagement/below-the-radar-podcast/episodes/234-sanem-guvenc.html Read the transcript: https://www.sfu.ca/vancity-office-community-engagement/below-the-radar-podcast/transcripts/234-sanem-guvenc.html Resources: Sanem Güvenç: https://www.sanemguvenc.com/ Lacan Salon: https://lacansalon.com/ ECUAD's Critical and Cultural Studies: https://www.ecuad.ca/academics/all-programs/undergraduate-programs/crcp Bio: Sanem Güvenç is an independent scholar based in Vancouver. Her current practice sits at the intersection of social-political theory and psychoanalysis, and works towards carving and mapping possible instances of echoes, dissonances, knottings and alliances in between those two broad fields. She traces these, on the one hand, in the humanities and social science classes she teaches at ECUAD's Critical and Cultural Studies, where she is positioned as a scholar in residence. On the other hand, these tropes are the founding questions of her book manuscript, tentatively titled, Topologies of the Void, where she employs speculative narration and experimental theorizing. Previously she journeyed through twentieth century its beginning and end through politics of eugenics and diseases in the first half of the twentieth century and neoliberal governmentalities at the tail end of it. At the moment, she is acting as the co-president of the Lacan Salon, the Vancouver-based psychoanalytic society that promotes and transmits analytical discourse.

INVITADO/A: Luis Suárez, Director Conservación InternacionalLuis Suárez es un biólogo ecuatoriano, graduado en la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Quito en 1985. En 1988 obtuvo una maestría en manejo de vida silvestre en la Universidad de Washington, en Seattle y en 2013 realizó otra maestría en ecología y conservación en la Universidad de Florida, en Gainesville. Ha sido profesor de varias universidades del Ecuador y autor de varios libros y artículos científicos sobre biodiversidad, especies amenazadas y áreas protegidas. Desde julio de 2002, es director ejecutivo de Conservación Internacional (CI) en Ecuador, una ONG reconocida a nivel mundial por su contribución a la conservación de la biodiversidad. En 2007, CI le otorgó el premio “Terry McManus” por la creación de alianzas innovadoras con el sector privado para apoyar programas de conservación, y en 2012 dicha organización le entregó el premio “Guerrero de la conservación” por su trayectoria profesional en favor de la naturaleza y el bienestar humano. En agosto de 2013, Luis fue nombrado Vicepresidente de Conservación Internacional.Datos del tema que tratamosHoy hablamos del Objetivo #14 de los Objetivos de Desarrollo de las Naciones Unidas: Vida Submarina•Los océanos cubren las tres cuartas partes de la superficie de la Tierra, contienen el 97 por ciento del agua del planeta y representan el 99 por ciento de la superficie habitable del planeta en volumen.•Más de tres mil millones de personas dependen de la biodiversidad marina y costera para su sustento.•A nivel mundial, el valor de mercado de los recursos marinos y costeros, y su industria se estima en $ 3 billones por año o alrededor del 5 por ciento del PIB mundial.•Los océanos contienen casi 200,000 especies identificadas, pero las cifras reales pueden ser de millones.•Los océanos sirven como la mayor fuente de proteínas del mundo. Más de 3.000 millones de personas dependen de los océanos como fuente principal de proteínas.•La pesca marina emplea directa o indirectamente más de 200 millones de personas.•Los subsidios a la pesca están contribuyendo al rápido agotamiento de muchas especies y están impidiendo los esfuerzos para salvar y restaurar la pesca mundial y los empleos asociados a esta, causando que la pesca oceánica genere US $ 50 mil millones menos por año de lo que podrían.•Los espacios de mar abierto muestran que los niveles actuales de acidez han aumentado en un 26 por ciento desde el comienzo de la Revolución Industrial.•Aumento de temperatura por calentamiento global genera las siguientes consecuencias:1.Aumento de temperatura en el agua, esto provoca desplazamiento de especies y alteración de patrones de migración2.Al derretirse los polos, hay aumento de de nivel de mar que provoca desparición de habitat de especies como osos polares, morsas, focas. Además manglares, importantes zonas de crianza de especies y ciudades costeras.3.El oceano funciona como un sumidero de carbono, atrapa el 30% de dioxido de carbono que existe pero esto provoca lo que se conoce como acidificación pues al reaccionar con el carbonato cálcico (que disminuye) el PH del oceano se reduce lo que le hace más ácido y las consecuencias son terribles para todas las especies que lo habitan.•Las aguas costeras se están deteriorando debido a la contaminación y la eutrofización (Acumulación de residuos orgánicos en el litoral marino o en un lago, laguna, embalse, etc., que causa la proliferación de ciertas algas.). Sin esfuerzos coordinados, se espera que la eutrofización costera aumente en 20 por ciento de los grandes ecosistemas marinos para el año 2050.

A făcut 12 ani înnot de performanță, fiind o perioadă bună în lotul olimpic. Apoi a jucat în seriale și a participat la show-uri de televiziune, a apărut în zeci de reclame și spoturi îndrăznețe iar în 2012 ajunge în Ecuador, o lună de zile, pentru a face un documentar (‘Ecuad.Or’ ) despre goana după aur. Aventura merge mai departe pentru el și participă anul acesta la primul sezon al emisiunii fenomen „Exatlon”. După un maraton de probe fizice şi psihice, de curaj şi de rezistenţă în condiţii extreme, timp de cinci luni, iese câștigător și primește cecul de 100.000 de euro pe care îi donează către MagiCAMP, o comunitate de oameni minunaţi care organizează tabere pentru copiii cu afecţiuni oncologice şi pentru cei care au suferit arsuri grave. Însă dincolo de atâta aventură și curaj, a scos la iveală și un talent nebănuit. Acela de a scrie poezii. ‘Dragoste n-are plural’ este prima sa carte de poezii, vândută în peste 4000 de exemplare, urmată de ‘Exerciții de dicție pentru inimi bâlbâite’ sold out până să ajungă în librării.

This year, we distill the best moments from 76 holiday greeting videos that were published by colleges and universities across Canada in December 2015, and select a few as “Best in Class” for their categories. Please “take twenty” with us, and enjoy! If you’re creating your own holiday greeting video, be sure to animate your logo with snowflakes and sleighbells. Your task is to convey best wishes on behalf of the campus community, most often featuring the president as spokesperson. A snowy Canadian winter is a natural, non-denominational symbol of winter break, and so many holiday greeting videos feature footage of campus wrapped in a blanket of snow. Perhaps last year was particularly green, since quite a few videos faked the snow – from Royal Roads to Western (which got Best in Class for this category.) The simplest way to incorporate the many voices on campus is to feature a collage of photographs, either taken throughout the year, or staged using holiday props. More popular is the “Holiday Shout-Out”, a compilation of many staff and students sharing their holiday wishes, often in a range of languages and reflecting a variety of traditions. (Humber College gets Best in Class for this category, although there are plenty of other great examples. VIU deserves honorable mention for involving their “Extreme Science” team. uWindsor produced a very slick multilingual video, but Queen’s ultimately got Best in Class for the sheer range of voices and their enthusiasm.) A variation on the “shout-out” is the “on-the-street Q&A”, and again there are plenty of great examples. Many ask students and staff what the holidays mean to them, or what they are looking forward to about the holidays. (SFU gets Best in Class for this category, for a polished and energetic video asking staff and students about their gift to the world.) Many institutions showcase the skills and talents of their students and alumni in their holiday greetings. Sheridan has a tradition of animated videos, and Mohawk of very polished musical greetings. Last year we saw alumni talents featured by NSCC, ECUAD, Ryerson, and Georgian as well. (We awarded Mohawk Best in Class for their musical videos, and even behind-the-scenes video.) Special mention goes to MSVU's recruiters, who clowned around while demonstrating their gift-wrapping skills. We saw tree-trimming parties at King’s and CBU, among others, but uVic took it to a new level with their best-in-class approach to symbolic ornaments and student sound bytes. A close runner-up was George Brown, which created a strong example as well. Santa Claus made an appearance at Douglas, posing for photos with all the good little girls and boys. At Niagara, gifts were delivered by Basil, the greenhouse cat. Brock staged a "parking miracle". A staffer named Lori played Secret Santa at Durham, while Lassonde tackled intergenerational peace and understanding with a defense of Millennials. UNB created an emotional thank-you from scholarship recipients to donors. But our favourite in this category was a wordless music video from uLeth, featuring gorgeous cinematography and Tyrone Wells’ song “Christmas at Home.” (Unfortunately UofL has just recently deleted their upload.) Some institutions promote professional, accomplished singers of Christmas Carols, while many publish videos of enthusiastic amateurs. Some try to stay in key, while others focus on having fun. NSCC shared a sign language caroling performance. Waterloo's Faculty of Environment rewrote “Winter Wonderland” with a “green” focus. Algoma staff participated in a collective reading of “The Grinch”. Bow Valley “put a bow on it.” Fleming produced their own version of Jimmy Fallon’s “Thank You Notes.” RDC parodied “The Night Before Christmas.” Definitely Best in Class for the parody category, however, was a version of the “12 Days of Christmas” by the Film & Video students at CNA. (Of course I can’t resist including uMich Engineering's Star Wars parody, “The Holiday Jedi Rap.”) You can watch the original, unedited versions of these holiday videos in our 2015 Holiday Videos playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLodJ8ParJmYULq5f-_JsusgbW1V8BNfSd On behalf of everyone here at Eduvation, and from my family to yours, I want to wish you a truly peaceful holiday season, and a happy and prosperous 2017!

As they used to say in the days of radio, this week we’re on a live remote from The Centre for Digital Media in Vancouver. We chat with the students about the unique program and school. These talented individuals share their experience in the amazing Master program, their ridiculously cool projects and future aspirations. Listening to the altruistic men & women in this Master’s program will give you hope for the future. We’re joined by Arushi Nagar, Gandhar Tannu and Armin Mortazavi. More information on this digital media graduate program is available here. The MDM at the CDM is made possible through a partnership with The University of British Columbia (UBC), Simon Fraser University (SFU), Emily Carr University of Art + Design (ECUAD) and the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT). Gandhar briefly describes the courses & semesters. Gandhar also shares that the school encourages entrepreneurship so students can pitch their own projects to real world investors like on Dragon’s Den or Shark Tank. Arushi mentioned that one of the keys to the school’s success is the diversity of the students. They are from different cultures & different professional disciplines. They are Agile. Our guests really enjoy their approachable and fun professors. They love the staff as well. How are you greeted at the school? By “a giant Pac-Man” Armin tells us. There’s a lot of game development happening at the school, so naturally they have game systems from Intellivision and Atari 2600 to the current generation of XBox One and PS4. Even if game design is not their focus, each of our guests enjoyed the game design class taught by Dr. Kimberly Voll. Gandhar was part of the Out of the Box team during the semester. The client he was working with was founded by former CDM students. When Chris watched the demo of the Magic Box he was reminded of Sega’s Time Traveler Hologame from the 90s. There are past graduates at EA, Microsoft, Google, CapCom, Apple, and many others. 12 companies have come out of the school in 6 years! Project team Eagle Eye included our guest Arushi and they were working on a marketing automation campaign for the ad agency Elevator Strategy. Armin was on a team called The Six. Their goal was to create a brain training game. Without breaking the non-disclosure agreement, he describes the project as “similar to Lumosity.” Finding a common interest is a key to a successful team. For example, get off the phone it’s beer Friday! Gandhar was mostly acting as a project manager for the project, but he does write on his site, gandharwrites.com. While Arushi hopes to find work at an augmented reality agency and Gandhar wants to create his own startup, Armin would like to teach science through his art. Special thanks to Mark, Josh, Jeannette, Director Dr. Richard Smith and the entire staff at the CDM for making this remote show possible. Support Montreal Sauce on Patreon
