Šobrīd Rīgas Laikmetīgās mākslas telpā skatāma franču izcelsmes komponista, mūziķa, kino režisora un pasaules apceļotāja Zigfrīda Debrebanta (Siegfried Debrebant) jeb Siga izstāde “Kino klejotājs”. Tas ir izstādes veidotāju stāsts par draugu, kurš ar savu azartisko dabu bija viens no iekustinātājiem gan Kaņepes kultūras centra izveidei, gan brīnišķīgiem koncertiem. Saruna arī par fotogrāfijām un filmām, kas savulaik tika novērtētas prestižos kino festivālos, bet tagad skatāmas Vecrīgas pazemē. Izstādes iekārtotājs un kurators ir Artūrs Virtmanis, līdzautors ir Siga labs draugs, Kaņepes kultūras centra vadītājs Dāvis Kaņepe. Zigfrīds pats bija šīs izstādes ierosinātājs, taču flīģelis, ko viņš plānoja spēlēt iepriekš nepieteiktās stundās izstādes “Kino klejotājs” norises laikā, Rīgas Mākslas telpā uz skatuves stāv pustumsā un bez pianista. Pagājušā gada rudenī Sigs jau zināja, ka ir smagi slims, pēc Rīgas apmeklējuma plānoja doties uz Franciju ārstēties. Taču slimība pielavījās klāt ātrāk, un tā nu sanāca, ka tieši Rīga pagājušajā gadā nogalē kļuva par viņa pirmspēdējo pieturas vietu, šeit pulcinot viņa draugus no visas pasaules. Ierastākais ceļš būtu par Sigu stāstīt kā par kultūras personību, kurš laikam jau vislielākos panākumus dzīves laikā bija guvis kā kino režisors. Zigfrīda pirmā pilnmetrāžas filma “Luīze. Otrais dublis” 1998. gadā tika demonstrēta prestižā Kannu kinofestivāla oficiālajā atlasē. Kas pavēra ceļu vēl sešām pilnmetrāžas filmām, kas tika izrādītas Kannu, Roterdamas, Sandensas kino festivālos. Un tieši tā Sigs arī pirmo reizi iepazina Rīgu. Viņa zināmākā filma “Sansa” 2004. gadā tika izrādīta kinofestivālā “Arsenāls”, ieradās arī viņš pats. Viņa izglītība un arī iztikas avots bija mūzika: savos pasaules klejojumos viņš vienmēr sniedza koncertus, pulcējot ap sevi negaidītu mūziķu sastāvu. Latvijā viņa domubiedrs bija brīnišķīgais džeza bundzinieks Artis Orubs. Un tomēr būtiskākais Siga personības atklāsmē man liekas tas otrs stāsts, kura izstāstīšanai grūti atrast jau gatavu matricu. Taču arī manā dzīvē ir bijušas personības, kuru citādākas dzīvošanas piemērs kādā grūti izprotamā veidā tiem cilvēkiem, kas ir ap viņu, izrādījies ļoti, ļoti svarīgs. Par ko īsti ir šī izstāde “Kino klejotājs” Rīgas Laikmetīgās mākslas telpā?  Stāsta tās veidotāji. Vai izstādei “Kino klejotājs” Rīgas Laikmetīgās mākslas telpā būs arī pavadošā programma? Ne Dāvis Kaņepe, ne Artūrs Virtmanis pagaidām nevar nosaukt konkrētus datumus, Bet ir paredzēta gan saruna par Siga kino, gan koncerts. Dāvis Kaņepe izsaka minējumu, ka Sigs pēc gadiem desmit varētu būt daudz atpazīstamāka personība nekā šobrīd. Jo viņš pats, savas dzīves laikā negrozījās sociālajos medijos, neko nedarīja savas mākslas atpazīstamībai. Zigfrīda brālis Francijā, kurš tagad ir Siga mantojuma glabātājs, lolo domu par īpaša fonda izveidi. Kas Rīgā ir darīts viņa atmiņas saglabāšanai? Izstāde “Kino klejotājs”par Sigu – Zigfrīdu Debrebantu Rīgas Laikmetīgās mākslas telpā apskatāma līdz 8. jūnijam. Ar

Attention Theft to Viewer's ChoiceWhat if advertising actually respected you?Mandana and Ian explore how the Bitcoin-powered Nostr protocol is revolutionizing digital advertising by testing ways to pay people viewing ads. They discuss projects like Zapertising, Buzzbot, and SIGs for SATs that are experimenting with paying users directly for their attention, rather than exploiting it. The couple examines how these alternatives contrast with their own project NextBlock and traditional social media platforms like BlueSky. They argue that by changing the financial incentives around attention, we can create a more equitable internet where both creators and audience members receive fair compensation, ultimately concluding that your attention might be worth significantly more than current systems suggest.Interested in advertising on Billboard?Email us at adrevolution@joinnextblock.com Get full access to Flirting With Bitcoin at www.flirtingwithbitcoin.com/subscribe

Synen på depression har förändrats dramatiskt genom århundradena, men upplevelsen av sjukdomen tycks konstant. Mona Masri funderar på det ljus som trots allt finns i det kompakta mörkret. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Essän sändes för första gången i december 2017.Svårt att fatta beslut, och att koncentrera sigSömnsvårigheter, minskad eller ökad aptit.Brist på energi, lätt att få skuldkänslorIngenting är kul längre. Självmordstankar.Det är symptomen för depression, och ändå är det svårt att beskriva hur det känns. Jag tänker att depression, precis som en orgasm, är omöjlig att föreställa sig om man aldrig haft en.En depression förvränger verkligheten. Den kan få småprat att låta som ett förfärligt larm, ett ljust rum att kännas som att stirra rakt in i solen.Tiden går fort och långsamt på samma gång; en dag blir ett ögonblick och ett liv en outhärdlig evighet. Lidandet blir således tidlöst, och det är denna irrationella logik som får självmordet att framstå som en tröst. För att bli av med den sjuka delen, offras hela jaget.Under medeltiden sades det att den deprimerade blivit besatt av en demonIdag anses depression bero på ärftlighet och psykologisk sårbarhet, kemisk obalans i hjärnan och hur livet ser ut i övrigt; arbetslöshet, skilsmässa och ensamhet är riskfaktorer. Men synen på depression har växlat över tid.Aristoteles trodde att det var genierna som drabbades av melankoli; den svarta gallan som det kallades för då. Under medeltiden sades det att den deprimerade blivit besatt av en demon efter att ha syndat, medan det under renässansen sågs som ett uttryck för känslomässigt djup. Inom teatern fick svårmodiga karaktärer ofta rollen som insiktsfulla; den kändaste är kanske Shakespeares Hamlet. Folk ville försätta sig i dystra sinnestillstånd för att nå djupare insikter.I takt med teknologiska framsteg talade man alltmer om människan i mekaniska termer och djup nedstämdhet sågs som en defekt i den mänskliga maskinen. Men när romantiken blommade vid slutet av 1700-talet vände det, nu värderades känslorna högt igen och folk ville försätta sig i dystra sinnestillstånd för att nå djupare insikter. De läste sorglig poesi och romaner som ”Den unge Werthers lidande”.Men läkare konstaterade snart det som är vedertaget än idag: att en depression hindrar en person från att blomstra.Därför kallar han depression för en västerländsk etnopsykologisk konstruktion.Men fungerar depression alltid på samma sätt överallt? Den brittisk- indiske läkaren och antropologen Sushrut Jadhav skriver att vi har en västerländsk syn på depression, som i Europa präglas av kyrkan. Tanken att sjukdomen går i arv från förälder till barn kan till exempel ses som metafor för den kristna arvssynden.Därför kallar han depression för en västerländsk etnopsykologisk konstruktion. Läkare pressar in sina indiska patienters symptombeskrivningar i färdiga mallar formade efter engelskan, och bortser då från indiska uttryck som söt smärta, värme i huvudet och så vidare. Resultatet blir vad han kallar för en kulturell rensning av patienters narrativ. Han hävdar alltså inte att sjukdomen inte finns på den indiska landsbygden, men att den kan ta sig olika uttryck.Den som någon gång erfarit den vet att depressionen kommer smygande men arbetar snabbt.Men om vi håller oss till denna västerländska bild så har alltså synen på den förändrats genom historien. Men det som slår mig, när jag läser skildringar från deprimerade själva; vare sig det är en munk på 1300-talet eller anonyma internetskribenter idag, är att de beskriver samma upplevelse.1300-talsmunken skulle säkert kunna läsa Sylvia Plaths roman ”Glaskupan”, om en ung kvinnas mentala förfall, och känna igen sig. I boken skildrar Plath depressionen inifrån; hur verkligheten långsamt förvrängs tills huvudpersonen lägger sig i ett hål i väggen efter en överdos sömntabletter. När hon vaknar upp på sjukhus döljer hon sina ben för att sköterskorna ska slippa se hur motbjudande de är. Borta är den bildningstörstande unga kvinna som längtat efter framtid och frihet, kvar är en person som föraktar både sig själv och andra och som är helt behovslös. Inga begär och heller inga drömmar. Allt på bara ett par månader. För, som den som någon gång erfarit den vet; depressionen kommer smygande men den arbetar snabbt.I ”Harry Potter” gestaltar JK Rowling depressionen som det våldsamma monstret ”Dementor”; ett ord hon skapat genom att sätta ihop de engelska orden för depression och plågoande,”tormentor”. Dementorn suger ut offrets alla lyckliga minnen och ersätter dem med hopplöshet. Första gången Harry Potter möter en dementor förlorar han medvetandet och hör sin mördade mammas röst.När jag knuffade ner Ann-Therese i snön, när jag sårade den jag älskade, när jag blev lämnad. Allt kommer åter.”Det kändes som om jag aldrig skulle kunna bli glad igen” säger Harry Potters vän efter att dementorn attackerat.På tal om demoner. Såhär skriver den tyske filosofen Nietzsche 1882:”Hur skulle du reagera om en vacker dag eller natt en demon nästlade sig in till dig i din ensammaste ensamhet och sade till dig:'Detta liv, sådant du nu lever och har levt det, kommer du att få leva en gång till och otaliga gånger till; och ingenting nytt kommer att fogas till det, utan varje smärta och varje lustkänsla och varje tanke och minsta suck och allt det outsägligt lilla och stora i din tillvaro måste du uppleva på nytt (…)Skulle du inte kasta dig på marken och gnissla med tänderna och förbanna den demon som talade så till dig? Eller har du en gång upplevt det oerhörda ögonblick då ditt svar skulle bli detta: ”Du är en gud och aldrig hörde jag gudomligare tal!”Den allmänna tolkningen av Nietzsches tanke om den eviga återkomsten är ungefär att man ska leva var dag på ett sätt som man gärna skulle återuppleva.Varför vill du ta bort sorgsenheten när du inte vet vilket arbete den utför i dig?Men för mig är det också en beskrivning av den deprimerade hjärnans eviga ältande, som i sin ensammaste ensamhet återupplever all smärta, liten som stor om och om igen.När jag knuffade ner Ann-Therese i snön, när jag sårade den jag älskade, när jag blev lämnad. Allt kommer åter. Skulle inte du kasta dig på marken och gnissla med tänderna och förbanna den demon som talade så till dig?Kvinnor som just fött barn uttrycker ibland förundran efter en förlossning: tänk att min kropp kan föda fram en annan människa. Efter en depression kan man tänka: Tänk att min hjärna kan få mig att vilja förinta mig själv.Det kan vara en upplevelse av att förlora förankring i världen. Golv lutar, väggar buktar inåt och taket hänger tungt. Utan att man märker det börjar ögonen gråta, kroppen läcker. Den du var är du inte längre.Det är kanske inte så som Aristoteles sa att mörkret drabbar de med djupare inre, men däremot tror jag att den som sjunkit ner, kommer rikare tillbaka.I ”Brev till en ung poet” skriver poeten Rilke insiktsfullt att sorgsenheten kommer in i och blir en del av oss, men den passerar alltid och när den lämnar står vi redo för en ny framtid. Varför vill du ta bort sorgsenheten när du inte vet vilket arbete den utför i dig?För dig som är deprimerad kan det kännas som att du är ensam om din upplevelse, i så fall är du ensam tillsammans med 300 miljoner människor som också lider av depression just nu. Det kan vara svårt att tro, men det går verkligen över.För som Rilke skriver: bli inte bestört när ett vemod djupare än något annat du upplevt tar över dig. Du måste tänka att någonting är på väg att hända i dig, att livet inte har glömt bort dig, att livet håller dig i sina händer och kommer inte låta dig falla.Mona Masrimanusförfattare och tidigare medarbetare på kulturredaktionen i P1.

No two days are the same for Will Gilmore as part of a team that oversees over 800 athletes across 200 sports at the Red Bull Athlete Performance Center. From surfers to skydivers, the facility provides an elite high-performance ecosystem for traditionally individual sport athletes. Gilmore highlights the need for remote programming and monitoring to support a constantly shifting roster. Together as a team, they navigate uncharted territory in action sports conditioning, guided by physiological demands and underlying energy systems. Gilmore and NSCA Coaching and Sport Science Program Manager Eric McMahon discuss the shift in sport science from ample to actionable data to find, change, and measure what matters most. Gilmore reflects on his “career periodization” and having free time for friends and family while working corporate hours — a stark contrast with his background in Major League Baseball (MLB). The pair also emphasize proactive networking and education for future career opportunities.

You never know what's coming around the next corner. But being a good person, meeting people, forming genuine bonds over strength and conditioning or even things outside of work with people in your field are very important.” 16:05 “Whether the sport demands show that, hey, you need some high-level anaerobic conditioning for this, the mental state of the athlete demands it. So whether that's cliff diving or downhill mountain biking where there's zero pedaling or even pitching in baseball, they've shown that the heart rate gets to 90%, 95% max. Why? Because that guy is stressed out. That is a tough job out there. And so you better prepare him in the gym to handle those demands.” 23:20 “That's really what we're looking for if we're going to be hiring a strength and conditioning coach.

This week on, Defense Unicorns Podcast we welcome Eddie Zaneski, the tech lead for open source here at Defense Unicorns, who takes us through his fascinating career journey from aspiring math teacher to a key player in the tech industry. Eddie shares his experiences transitioning into computer science, his passion for developer relations, and his significant contributions to the Kubernetes project. We dive into the evolution of software deployment, from bare metal servers to virtual machines and containers, and how Kubernetes has become essential in managing large-scale containerized applications. Eddie also reflects on his time at DigitalOcean, Amazon, and ChainGuard, highlighting his work on software supply chain security projects like Protobomb and Sigstore.Our conversation then turns to the security of open-source communities, challenging the misconception that open-source software is less secure than its closed-source counterparts. Eddie discusses the advantages of transparency in open source, using the XZ library's recent security breach as a case study to emphasize the importance of trust and identity verification. We also explore the potential for similar vulnerabilities in closed-source projects and the growing importance of supply chain security measures, including building integrity and software bills of materials (SBOM). The episode concludes with a thought-provoking discussion on the benefits of transparency in open source and whether proprietary software incidents would be as openly shared or understood.Eddie shares his enthusiasm for leveraging government funding to support open-source projects. He expresses his excitement about engaging with soldiers, airmen, and guardians to understand their challenges and explore open-source solutions. We also touch on innovative tools for air-gapped environments, like Zarf, and their applications across various industries. Listen in as Eddie recounts his experiences at Bravo hackathons, the unique challenges faced by developers in constrained environments, and offers valuable career advice for those passionate about open source and software development.Key Quote“There's lots of misconceptions and I'm sure you and I can talk about all of them. One of the big ones is, just. It's less secure, right? that's a massive myth. Open source security is less secure because all the code is in the open and everyone can go find the holes and generally quite the opposite actually, because the code is in the open, everyone can do their own audits and everyone can see what's happening under the covers of the magic box that you usually can't peer into with proprietary software. We have entire teams of like security. So the Kubernetes project is divided up into special interest groups or SIGs. So we have SIGs for security, we have a product security council and committee that is the incident response people for when there is a new CVE or a bug found, and all sorts of different types of things that are just tailored around security.”-Eddie ZaneskiTime Stamps:(00:02) Kubernetes and Open Source Evolution(08:17) Security in Open Source Communities(20:43) Software Bill of Materials for Cybersecurity(24:04) Exploring Defense Unicorns and Open Source(31:43) Navigating Careers in Open Source(42:25) Breaking Barriers in Defense Innovation(46:42) Collaborating for Defense Open SourceLinksConnect with Eddie

In this episode, we talk to three active leaders who have been around since the very beginning of Kubernetes. We explore how Kubernetes has changed since its inception, with a particular focus on current efforts in Open source Kubernetes to support AI/ML style workloads.   Maciej Szulik is currently taking a seat in the Kubernetes Steering Committee. He's also leading Special Interests Groups responsible for kubectl, workload and batch controllers. Maciej has been contributing to Kubernetes since the early days, jumping from one area to another where help was needed. He authored the first version of audit and helped shape its current one, as well as touched multiple other places in apimachinery. He was also responsible for designing and implementing Job and CronJob controllers. In kubectl he was responsible for the plugin mechanism and several major refactors to simplify the code. Since May 2024 he joined the ranks of Production Readiness Review (PRR) approvers helping ensure high production standards for the future of Kubernetes releases.    Clayton Coleman is a long-time Kubernetes contributor, having helped launch Kubernetes as open source, being on the bootstrap steering committee, and working across a number of SIGs to make Kubernetes a reliable and powerful foundation for workloads.  At Red Hat he led OpenShift's pivot onto Kubernetes and its growth across on-premise, edge, and into cloud.  At Google he is now focused on enabling the next generation of key workloads, especially AI/ML in Kubernetes and on GKE.   Dawn Chen has been a Principal Software Engineer at Google cloud since May 2007. Dawn has worked on an open source project called Kubernetes before the project was founded. She has been one of tech leads in both Kubernetes and GKE, and founded SIG Node from scratch. She also led Anthos platform team for the last 4 years, and mainly focuses on the core infrastructure. Prior to Kubernetes, she was the one of the tech leads for Google internal container infrastructure -- Borg for about 7 years. Outside of work, she is a wife, a mother of a 16-year old boy and a good friend. She enjoys reading, cooking, hiking and traveling.   Do you have something cool to share? Some questions?

Der bekannte Schweizer Schauspieler und Autor legt einen weiteren Band mit Texten aus der und über die Innerschweiz vor. Diesmal quasi dreisprachig: Obwaldner-, Urner- und Hochdeutsch kommen zusammen. Hanspeter Müller-Drossaart kann an vielen Orten als «hiesig» gelten: In Sarnen (OW), wo er geboren ist, in Erstfeld, wo er aufgewachsen ist, oder in Dietikon, wo er heute lebt. Den Wechsel vom Obwaldner- ins Urnerdeutsche in der Kindheit beschreibt er unironisch als Erlernen einer neuen Sprache: Die beiden Dialekte seien sich zwar ähnlich, aber nur schon in ihrer Tonalität für ihn ziemlich verschieden, sagt er. Als Schauspieler bewegt Hanspeter Müller-Drossaart sich mühelos zwischen verschiedenen Mundarten und dem Hochdeutschen hin und her – und genau das tut er auch in seinem neusten Buch mit dem ironisch angehauchten Titel «Hiäsigs». Ironisch deshalb, weil die Quintessenz seiner Texte ist: Alles kann «hiesig» sein, man muss es nur auf die richtige Weise anschauen. Hanspeter Müller-Drossaart vereint längere und kürzere Gedichte in Mundart sowie erzählende oder fast essayistische Texte auf Hochdeutsch in seinem Buch. «Hiäsigs» ist gleichermassen eine Hommage an die Innerschweiz, an die Menschen, die dort Leben und an ihre Sprache. Es sei eine Region, in der man mit ganz wenigen Worten in Mundart viel sagen könne, sagt der Autor. In der Sendung sprechen wir mit Hanspeter Müller-Drossaart über sein neustes Buch, über sein Verhältnis zu den unterschiedlichen Sprachen, die er dafür benutzt hat, und darüber, warum der Begriff «hiesig» mit Vorsicht zu geniessen ist. Ausserdem erklären wir die Wörter «Kapare», «Seygemeinde» und «Feuerstattberechtigte» sowie den Familiennamen Stricker. Buchhinweis: * Hanspeter Müller-Drossaart: Hiäsigs. Bildfluss 2024.

I'm Jessica Van Cleave, the chair of the QR SIG, and I'm happy to be joined today by Alex Panos and Renuka de Silva, our program co-chairs. In this episode, we preview the QR SIG program for the 2023 AERA Annual Meeting, discuss what members can expect from the place-based and virtual components of the conference, and highlight opportunities to connect for QR SIG graduate students and members.   Alexandra Panos is an Assistant Professor of literacy studies and affiliate faculty in measurement and research in the College of Education at the University of South Florida. She earned her doctorate in literacy, language and culture education, with a minor in inquiry methodology at Indiana University Bloomington in 2018. Alex takes a transdisciplinary stance in her work as a critical qualitative methodologist and grounds her theoretical, methodological and empirical work in her substantive field of literacy studies. She has published numerous articles and book chapters that focus on qualitative methodologies and literacy studies. She centers her scholarship on the reality that, to quote Octavia Butler, there is no end to what a living world demands of you. For her, this means prioritizing community engaged and post critical activities that center spatial and ecological justice. Alex is completing her three year term as program co chair at the conclusion of the 2023 Annual Meeting.  Renuka de Silva is an Assistant professor of teaching and leadership in the College of Education and Human Development at the University of North Dakota. She is the director of the Indigenous teacher education program. As a qualitative researcher she examines issues and trends in Indigenous education, diversity, equity, inclusion, and cultural contexts of higher education. Her primary research focuses on indigenous epistemology and the importance of storytelling in native and indigenous cultures. Renuka is an artist and an activist. Her activism centers on creating pathways for scholars from underserved communities to engage in research that is non Eurocentric. As an artist, Renuka's research examines relationships between artists and their works, connecting activism and transnationalism. She hopes to promote and support scholarly work, where embodied experiences are [k]new knowledge that continues to shape people and create identities that are meaningful to themselves. From this space, scholars will interrogate imposed identities with prefabricated borders and limitations placed on everything that is self and the physical body. We are fortunate to have Renuka remain as program co chair for two more years. Thank you both for joining me today for our 2023 AERA Annual Meeting program preview podcast. As we all know, the Annual Meeting can be an overwhelming experience, especially if you're attending for the first time. Hopefully, this episode will orient and help our listeners to understand the conference as well as the QR SIG offerings. So let's start by talking a little bit about the format of the conference this year. The Annual Meeting will take place in two parts with the place based meeting in Chicago, April 13th through 16th, and the virtual component of the meeting May 4th through 5th. How has that impacted the program and what can attendees expect? Alexandra Panos  03:58Thanks, Jessica. It's wonderful to be here today. So the place-based and virtual components are really similar to normal conference experiences. We have 13 sessions in the place based conference taking place in Chicago, and four sessions in the virtual component in May. We're really excited that we received powerful proposals for both parts of the conference. And we wanted to make sure that people realized that if you register for the place based conference, you automatically are able to join virtually in May. And of course we encourage all folks to check out the program this year and reach out to the wonderful presenters about their work, even if they're not able to attend one or both formats of the conference. We tried to make the program really visible in our newsletter that will be coming out in recent weeks and right before the place based conference, and encourage synergies and connectivities over time and space in these place based and virtual components. Jessica Van Cleave  04:57Thank you so much. That's really helpful to conceptualize the two different spaces where we can engage this year. So can you offer us an overview of the program? For example, how many sessions does the QR SIG offer? And what kinds of topics can attendees expect to find? Renuka de Silva  05:55Thank you, Jessica. I would love to answer that question. As we said, we have a total of 17 sessions this year across the place based and virtual conference opportunities. We're excited about all of our sessions. One session that is particularly exciting is one we are co sponsoring with our wonderful colleagues in Division G, social contexts of education, on Monday at 4:10, titled, Educational Research at the Intersection of Contemporary Black Studies and Posthumanism: Risk, Possibilities, and Purpose. We hope that this session brings our two units closer together to consider the important ideas the presenters are sharing. We are grateful for the broad range of expertise being shared this year with topics addressing innovative applied methods, critical engagement with qualitative methodologies, and creative and thoughtful sessions designed to bring many ideas together from many perspectives, to other place based sessions that are bringing big groups of folks together, to think broadly are Writing and Articulation of Qualitative Research on Monday at 2:50pm and Postfoundational Qualitative Inquiry on Tuesday at 9:50am. And we want to give a shout out to our virtual symposium Interrogating Consequential Education Research in Pursuit of Truth in Living Theory, which will be Thursday, May 4, at 8am CST. Jessica Van Cleave  06:09Wonderful! It sounds like there really are some exciting offerings this year. I'm looking forward to this. So there is a long process that gets us to this place of building such an interesting and exciting program. So can you talk to us a little bit about what is the process for reviewing and accepting submissions and what kinds of things are taken into account in that process? Alexandra Panos  09:05Definitely. It's the biggest part of our work as program co chairs and one that we believe is exceptionally important and something we take very seriously. So we would like to start by saying that we rely heavily on the expertise of our volunteers who share valuable insights about each submission. This is not something we do in isolation. We rely on the volunteers in our in our community here in the QR SIG. To support this process. We together as program co chairs assign each submission for reviewers with one of those being a graduate student who's getting experience in this process and practice. While supported by outside folks, as a team, then we individually and collaboratively consider each submission and its reviews to make a final decision of acceptance or rejection. And one thing I'd like to point out is that when we initially match reviewers with a submission, we prioritize matching reviewers with submissions in their areas of expertise, in particular, for work that's being proposed that has been historically in prejudice presently marginalized in the academy. So for folks who submit proposals that might have keywords or topics related to critical race theory, queer theory, feminist methodologies, or disability studies, just to name a few, certainly others, we do our absolute best to ensure, in particular for those that they have reviewers with background in those areas. We also want to note that while we certainly love having submissions that address the conference theme, we welcome all submissions, addressing qualitative methodologies, and that that's the center point. For our review process, centering methodology, qualitative methodologies, the most important part of a proposal and what we're looking for, in the QR SIG. But as a whole, the review process, we tried to make it as holistic as possible, informed by the experts that make up this wonderful community. Jessica Van Cleave  11:09It's still in the context of AERA, which is enormous. So how can members locate the sessions that they are interested in from the QR SIG for the place based meeting.  Renuka de Silva  11:42Definitely check out the online program through AERA. There's a great feature that you can map out your own schedule by favoriting, or liking, your sessions. And you can search by unit to find the session for your SIG. Additionally, our newsletter will be out by the conference and includes an overview of the program. So that should be helpful.  Jessica Van Cleave  12:07Fantastic. Yeah, there are some great tools out there and, and do look out for the information coming out via the listserv as we get closer to the play space annual conference. So how can members access the virtual sessions. Alexandra Panos  12:24So very similarly, you'll get login information from AERA for accessing the virtual platform, and then you'll also be able to access the sessions through AERA web page, but look for info from AERA directly, not just from us for accessing that virtual space. But in terms of our program, you can see the sessions in the program the same way you would for the placed based session. So the online program this year, while we have two components, the place based and the virtual, you can find everything within our more traditionally understood AERA online program. So star are SIG sessions, favorite, like them, whatever word we want to use for that, review the newsletter, and that includes the virtual component as well as the place based. Jessica Van Cleave  13:14Wonderful, thank you so much for helping us understand some of the tools that are available to us for finding those QR SIG sessions. So aside from those regular sessions, what other opportunities are there for QR SIG members to connect with our SIG? Renuka de Silva  13:29Well, yes, please come hang out with us. We have two opportunities together as a SIG with all members, the business meeting, which will be Friday morning, bright and early at at 8am. And then reception will be on Friday evening at 7:30pm. A whole day of SIG events. Beyond these events, there are some closed sessions that are fantastic. And that if you haven't, if you aren't involved this year, please check out for, for it for next year. The mentoring session is on Saturday. And we'll bring together groups of scholars to problem solve and explore their stuck places. We also have what we call office hours, both in person and virtual, so that folks can sign up for to get to know, one on one opportunities to talk through a specific issue with a leading scholar in our field. So those are some of the ways.  Jessica Van Cleave  14:30Wonderful. Thank you so much. And you also hopefully saw that those office hours are were available for signing up through March 24. And if you didn't get that opportunity, as Alex and Randa mentioned, make sure to keep your eyes open for next year's opportunities. So you mentioned the business meeting and the reception. So can you talk to us about what members who attend the business meeting can expect at those events or at the reception? Alexandra Panos  14:59Yeah, definitely. So this year, we have a new format for gathering as a SIG. Typically in the past, we've had one evening business meeting and reception combined event. So everything took place at one time. But this year, we have been asked by AERA to separate those events. So we have a business meeting in the morning and the reception in the evening. As Renuka mentioned, we will have food at both so bright and early on Friday morning, when you join us for our business meeting, we'll have breakfast items, and coffee and tea. And at that event, we will be going over SIG business, getting program updates from our executive committee officers, we will also be sharing and giving out our awards to the exceptional work in the field that's being honored by our awards committees, including the Dissertation Award, the Book Award and the Egon G Guba Award. And then in the evening, that evening, Friday evening at 7:30pm. We will have our reception and the Guba lecture this year by Dr. Kakali Bhattacharya. So, please come and check that out. We also have a short speaker event related to the passing of Dr. Brigitte Smit. So if you would like to pay your respects to her with our, with our community, we'll be doing that in the evening. And at the evening reception, we'll have drinks and food and time to connect with one another. Jessica Van Cleave  16:46Wonderful. So it's great that there are all these opportunities to be together as a community in addition to sharing our work and scholarship. So what suggestions given all of these opportunities, what suggestions do you have for members to navigate the AERA program and take advantage of what the QR SIG has to offer? Renuka de Silva  17:08So we mentioned earlier the program options to create your own schedule to do this, AERA is so big searching by unit, and then selecting QR SIG is super helpful, too. Jessica Van Cleave  17:23Wonderful. So really thinking about taking those tools into account and using what is at our fingertips already is really, really helpful. So thank you for that reminder. So let's say you're interested in the QR SIG offerings, but you're not yet a member. How can you become a member of the qualitative research SIG? And what are some of the benefits of membership? Alexandra Panos  17:45Yeah, please become a member. But when you join AERA and become a member of the bigger community, the bigger AERA community, you have the opportunity to select and join divisions and SIGs. And what you can do is if you select the qualitative research SIG, you are a member. It's as simple as that. Benefits from joining the SIG include receiving emails specifically for our membership, which include many opportunities for connecting with other members, mentorship workshops, calls for special issues related to qualitative research, and our personal favorite opportunities to review for the conference and get that service in support of our community. I think just a final note that I wanted to share about AERA and navigating it is that it's the most important thing is to have fun. There is an overwhelming amount of things to do at AERA. It's really possible to overdo it. Jessica and I spoke earlier today about how at both of our first annual meetings, we tried to attend a session in like every slot and be at every single thing and couldn't say no to anything and it was just too much. It's completely overwhelming, not worth it to burn yourself out. So from that experience, I know I've learned to build in time to process after sessions that I attend that I'm incredibly interested in. I take time to write, even chat with colleagues, who had also attended the work like the connections are the most important part in many ways. And I think sometimes those in between spaces are where conference experiences happen. So if you get invited to lunch or coffee, or drinks or a reception at AERA, go. So just final plug for joining the business meeting in particular if you want to get involved in the SIG and learn more about it and joining our reception for time to think with one of the leading scholars in our field and have a drink with colleagues. Jessica Van Cleave  19:56Thank you so much. Plus AERA is really expensive. It's always in an expensive city. So find those opportunities for free meals. It definitely can help. Thank you both so much for being on this episode of the podcast to help us preview the 2023 annual meeting. Really appreciate your time. Renuka de Silva  20:18Thank you, Jessica. Alexandra Panos  20:20Thank you, Jessica. I can't wait to see everyone in Chicago. Jessica Van Cleave  20:24All right, coming right up y'all: April 13 through 16

In this episode, Jessica Van Cleave (QR SIG Chair),  Alexandra Panos (Program Co-chair), and Cassie Quigley (Program Co-Chair) preview the Qualitative Research SIG's program for the AERA 2022 conference. They share about the business meeting, the conference hybrid format, tips for having a successful conference, and much more. Below are helpful conference links and the transcript of the conversation.  QR SIG AERA 2022 Program in Google Doc form: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tP3sxCO91cc-qGYpw876t8adf1L_K1fy0cA2WsrP0DA/editAERA video training for presenters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKfPWsLcI0cJessica Van Cleave  0:20  Welcome to qualitative conversations the podcast of the qualitative research Special Interest Group at AERA. I'm Jessica Van Cleave, the chair of the QR SIG, and I'm happy to be joined today by Cassie Quigley and Alex Panos, our program co-chairs. In this episode, we preview the QR SIG's program for the 2022 AERA annual meeting, discuss what members can expect from the hybrid format, and highlight opportunities to connect for QRC graduate students and members. Dr. Cassie Quigley is an associate professor of science education and Chair in the Department of teaching, learning and leading at the School of Education at the University of Pittsburgh. She received her doctorate doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction at Indiana University in 2010. Dr. Quigley's his expertise in qualitative research is focused on methodologies that center the participants such as community based methodologies, using data collection methods such as photo methods. In the past 11 years, she has published over 50 articles and book chapters focused on these methods, including in journals such as the International Journal of qualitative studies and education, qualitative inquiry, the Journal of mixed methods research. She also co authored a book on STEAM education titled An educators guide to STEAM education, which is published by teachers college press. She has presented her qualitative work at numerous conferences both nationally and internationally. Additionally, she serves as a program co chair of the American Educational Research Association's Qualitative Research Special Interest Group. She teaches qualitative research methodology courses on topics such as participatory action, research, validity and reliability for qualitative work and ethics around educational research. Cassie is completing her three year term as program co chair this year, and she's done an incredible job during this unusual and ever changing time for eight era and the annual meeting. I'm so grateful for her service and dedication and putting together meaningful programs over the past three years and she will be missed on the executive committee. Alexandra Panos is an assistant professor of literacy studies and affiliate faculty and measurement and research in the College of Education at the University of South Florida. She earned her doctorate in literacy, language and culture education with a minor in inquiry methodology at Indiana University Bloomington in 2018. Dr. Panos takes an interdisciplinary stance in her work as a critical qualitative methodologist and grounds her theoretical methodological and empirical work. In her substantive field of literacy studies. She has published numerous articles and book chapters that focus on the critical environmental and spatial dimensions of qualitative methodologies of literacy studies. Most recently, she has served as senior guest editor on a special issue focusing on the spatial dimensions have taken for granted qualitative research practices related to masking and anonymization published in the International Journal of qualitative studies and education. We are fortunate to have Alex remain as a program co chair one more year to complete her three year term after the 2023 annual meeting. So what we wanted to start by talking about is the fact that the annual meeting this year is hybrid. And this is the first time that AERA has has held the meeting in hybrid format. So how has that impacted the program? And what can attendees expect? Um, overall, that means that some of our sessions are going to be in person, and some of them are going to be virtual. And the virtual sessions are going to be accessible through Passable, which is the platform that Ara has hired this year and contracted with to provide the virtual conference experience. The in person sessions are going to look just like in person sessions have always looked at AERA. And so members can anticipate either attending sessions if they have registered for the in person or place based meeting, or I'm logging on to the Passable platform and attending via zoom, kind of similar platform. It's kind of zoom embedded within passable in order to access the virtual sessions. And then as happened last year, poster presentations are going to be provided in the virtual gallery that will be accessible both through the passable platform and the eight year website in our virtual gallery. Alexandra Panos  4:41  One thing to add to that, Jessica, sorry, I cut you off. I was just going to add that the play space participants can access the virtual platform space so for them it really is hybrid. But if you're a virtual, you can't access all playspace sessions. There are some that will be made available and streamed live through passable as well.Jessica Van Cleave  5:08  That's right, Alex. Yeah. So So depending on how you register, you're going to have access to different types of sessions. If you are in the playspace session, you'll have access to all of the various sessions. So I'm Cassie, can you give us an overview of the QR sync program? How many sessions there are and what kind of topics that attendees can expect to find?Cassie Quigley  5:30  Yeah, absolutely. We're really excited. And thank you all for your, you know, your work in the QR SIG. We will have seven in person paper or symposium sessions, we will have four virtual sessions that are paper or symposium sessions, one virtual business meeting, so hope to see you there and one in person mentoring session. So for the mentoring session, a folks who are participating have already received that information. And this is a closed session. But if you're interested in learning more, or joining this session next year, this is an annual event and you can contact them mentoring committee chair, Kelly Guyette. We have other exciting opportunities for mentorship as well, including mentor mentee office hours, we're so fortunate to have so many committed mentors, we thank them for their time and service to the QR SIG. And, Alex, do you want to just talk to us a little bit about the process for reviewing and accepting submissions? And what kind of things we tend to take into account as we're doing this work?Alexandra Panos  6:38  Yeah, definitely. Cuz he, um, so every year, the call goes out after after the conference. And then as program coaches, we wait for submissions, and look forward to receiving them. When we get submissions through the platform. We review each submission to be sure that they're complete, that they are a good fit for our SIG that there aren't any anonymization issues with those. And then we go on to invite reviewers who have expertise in the area of each proposal. So we've read each proposal, we invite reviewers to join us and thinking about those and give us their expert feedback. This is one of the reasons why we so value our SIG member reviewers, you are so essential to this process. I don't think Cassie and I could explain that enough. If you want to review in the future. Just a quick note, it's really helpful to indicate your areas of expertise using the keyword feature when you sign up to review. Because after we get the submissions when we review them, we make matches based on folks expertise. And once those reviews are returned, after a lot of hard work by reviewers, we carefully go through them looking at both the quantitative and qualitative feedback that each reviewer provides to determine which papers to accept. This year, we had fewer places, fewer allocated sessions and papers than we have in past year. So we definitely had to make a lot of difficult decisions. But as we process all the information we have available, we really take into account the reviews of these of the experts we invite to join us in this process, which includes three reviewers and one graduate student reviewer. And another thing about the system: how we access things. So we work on that back end system of AERA, which please sign up to review next year using that system. But it's a little different than the actual access to the conference system. So Jessica, I know you've been attending a lot of trainings on this. I wonder if you can share a little bit about how members can access the sessions that they want to attend through the political platform.Jessica Van Cleave  8:57  Yeah, absolutely. Alex, thank you. So if you are in San Diego, then the way that you attend sessions that are placed based in San Diego is you just go to them. So that is the easy part. Right? That's what we're used to doing. That is what's familiar back in the olden days of 2019. That is how we used to attend AERA, that option is still available and it's fantastic. So, if you have registered for the place based session, then that is how you will attend in person sessions. Now if you are a virtual registrant, you cannot attend to those playspace sessions. AERA is not planning to stream or record place-based sessions except for a select few as Alex mentioned earlier, like the Presidential sessions and things like that. Otherwise, the in person face to face playspace sessions are only accessible by those who are in San Diego attending the conference. If you are in San Diego, you can also attend the virtual sessions are obviously if you're a virtual registered, then you'll be attending those virtual sessions as well or presenting in that platform. And the way that you will access those sessions is through the passable platform. So, invitations we have been told should be going out the week of March 28. Once you get an invitation to the passable platform, you will create a profile. And from that platform, you'll be able to view your own presentations, add items to your schedule and create your your serve AERA personalized experience through that platform. You must register for the meeting to gain access either as a presenter or as a participant, we've been told that there are some things in place that make it so that those virtual sessions can only be accessed through the platform. And then within the platform, they host a zoom. So that will look familiar. Accessing virtual sessions will look like the kinds of virtual sessions we've been accessing and hosting ourselves for the last couple of years. So all of the the interfaces interactions, and what it looks like will be very familiar to us. And that same opportunity to share your screen and use presentation tools and software that you can use in zoom will be available through passable. So AERA has a lot of additional information, as well as specific trainings both for presenters and exhibitors and chairs that can be found on their website. And we'll include some links in the description to the podcast so that you can access those directly. If you have some, some specific questions, or you want to go through the process and see what it looks like prior to getting your invitation. AERA has also told us that based on those trainings and the questions that were asked during the sessions, they're putting together an FAQ to support members in accessing. And again, virtual sessions can be accessed by registrants who are placed based or virtual. And except for key sessions in person sessions can only be accessed for members who are registered for the in person meeting and they won't be streamed. So that's that's sort of how we can get there. We'll be finding out more information. And once the platform launches, and we receive those invitations, we'll be working on putting together some some access and information for our members to that we'll be sending out through the listserv. So I'm one of the things that we do at the annual meeting, in addition to our content sessions, is our business meeting. Cassie, can you talk to us a little bit about what members can expect if they attend the business meeting?Amy Stich  12:42  Yeah, we're really excited for the business meeting. And that business meetings on Saturday, April 23, and it will begin at 6pm. Pacific Time, the agenda will include a welcome from our president and then moving on to acknowledgement for for the work. And then we move into some committee and activity reports from our various committees, which is just a really nice way to kind of learn more about the QR SIG. And also here, what we've been doing over the last year. Then we have the Outstanding Dissertation reward award. And then the Egon G Guba. Award, we will announce as well. And we will end right around seven just after 7pm Pacific Time, you do not need to register for the business meeting. It is open to all members. And this will be a virtual event which so then it's open to both people who are in person in San Diego and have registered for the virtual events. So we're really looking forward to seeing you all there. It's a wonderful event to learn ways to get involved. And also just learn more about the work that we've been doing over the last year. So we're really looking forward to seeing you all there. Um, Alex, what suggestions do you have for members who might be curious about ways to navigate AERA program and take advantage of our exciting sessions and I'm thinking particularly if I'm a new member to the QR SIG, or this is the first time I'm attending AERA can be a little overwhelming.Unknown Speaker  14:22  Oh my goodness. Yes, Ara is a very large space with more sessions than it's possible to imagine sometimes it feels like so one of the ways that's really helpful, and why I love being a member of the QR SIG or other units in AERA is that it can create. If you take a lens of a sig or a division as a unit. To navigate AERA you have an ability to create a more personalized program based on your areas of interest and expertise. The kinds of scholarly conversations you want to be a part of. So when you're in the, the program itself, when you log into all academic or into the patible program, there should be searchable tools for you. So you can search by someone's name, like you really want to see a specific scholar and you want to talk to that person. But you can also search by unit. And when you search by unit, you have opportunities to search by SIG or by division. And so we of course, recommend that you go check out the QR SIG, and its program but you can also search and other units. So for us qualitative, folks, division D is another wonderful place to look because those are also all methodology conversations over there. And they have lots of qualitative conversations to be had there. So I just always recommend that you really think about the scholarly conversations you want to be a part of, and you find ways to streamline your exploration in in that way. But I think becoming a member of a SIG means that you are already like kind of like aware of things that are happening and you are trying to be a part of that scholarly conversation in a particular area, such as our area of qualitative research. So Jessica, will you share a little bit about how folks might join us in the QR SIG? Jessica Van Cleave  16:29  Absolutely, yeah. So to become a member of the QR SIG, and obviously, we hope all of our listeners are either existing members or will soon join us. When you get your Ara member membership or renew, you have the opportunity to select divisions and sigs that you want to be a part of. So if you go to that very, very, very long listing of SIGs and scroll down to Q and select qualitative research special interest group, you're a member. So you add that at the time of your initial membership or at the time of your renewal. And you can actually go back and add memberships to divisions and SIGs. If later on you decide that this is really a community of scholars that you want to be a part of, you don't have to wait until the next year you can join the QR SIG or any SIG at any time. For us and the QR SIG. We have an active listserv. So one of the member, one of the benefits of becoming a member is that you will receive emails periodic periodically that are specific to our membership. Those kinds of emails to the listserv include opportunities for connecting with other members. They include mentorship opportunities, publication opportunities, workshop, workshops, ideas, or invitations to submit to our newsletter and other kinds of things, calls for special issues related to qualitative research. We often have job opportunities, and interesting ways to connect and really become part of our community to join le
