The LRC Speaker Series presents Christopher Lupke (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 13, 2015 - February 13, 2015

Xie Jin and the Conversion of Filiality in Chinese Socialist Cinema Xie Jin’s Stage Sisters 舞台姐妹 (1964) is recognized as one of the best of the leftist films produced during the Maoist Period. Underlying its ostensible message of victory over class conflict is a network of references to the reproductive power of filiality or xiao, the essential mortar in traditional Chinese society that ensured the patriarchal structures of kinship and gendered identity. In this talk, Dr. Lupke examines how Stage Sisters both mimics these structures and contests them to a certain extent.

Philosopy Speakers: Miri Albahari (W. Australia), "Awakening to the Possibility of Nibbāna (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 13, 2015 - February 13, 2015

About the Talk The ultimate goal of Buddhist practice is nibbāna, or ‘awakening’: an extraordinary psychological transformation that is said to be brought about by a profound insight into the nature of reality. The transformative experience most centrally involves a complete release from all psychological desires and attachments, and the sufferings they entail, coupled with an immense joy and compassion. Eliciting this transformation is an insight into reality, that includes, minimally, a direct first-person realisation that the core self – the thinking, desiring thing on behalf of which we feel motivated to act – is a cognitive illusion. So, is nibbāna really possible – indicative of a genuine psychological capacity – or is it just an artefact of tradition? If nibbāna is possible, it could have widespread philosophical implications for the nature of mind and reality. Its possibility will partly depend upon (i) the psychological plausibility of such a remarkable cognitive transformation coming about and (ii) the metaphysical likelihood that the wider content of the transformative insight, which is supposed to underpin the realisation that there is no self, holds true. In this paper, I say more about these conditions in relation to the likelihood of nibbāna. About the Speaker Miri Albahari (PhD UCalgary 2005) is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of Western Australia. Her key research is on the intersection of Metaphysics, Epistemology, Philosophy of Mind, and Eastern/Asian Philosophy. She is attempting to build a metaphysical and epistemological framework for what Aldous Huxley has called the "Perennial Philosophy". Albahari is the author of Analytical Buddhism: The Two-Tiered Illusion of Self (Palgrave Macmillan 2006). Her most recent journal articles include "Insight Knowledge of No Self in Buddhism: An Epistemic Analysis," Philosophers' Imprint (2014) and "Alief or Belief? A Contextual Approach to Belief Ascription," Philosophical Studies (2014).

Selection of Parametric Selection of Parametric Networks in PRRS using ILMs, and Linearization of ILMs for Large-Scale Spatial Infectious Disease Systems (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 13, 2015 - February 13, 2015

Dr. Grace Pui Sze Kwong Biostatistics Consultant Faculty of Veterinary Medicine University of Calgary Abstract: Individual-level models (ILMs) for infectious diseases, fitted in a Bayesian MCMC framework, are an intuitive and flexible class of models that can take into account population heterogeneity via various individual-level covariates. This talk addresses two separate issues. The first part of this talk is to identify relative importance of risk factors for the spread of the genotype 1-18-4 PRRS virus from monitoring data in southern Ontario using ILMs. Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) has a worldwide distribution. This economically important endemic disease causes reproductive failure in breeding stock and respiratory tract illness in young pigs. Here, we explore networks through which resources are obtained or delivered, as well as the ownership structure of herds, and identify factors that may be contributing to high risk of infection. ILMs containing a geometric distance kernel to account for geographic heterogeneity provide a natural way to model the spatial spread of many diseases. However, in even only moderately large populations, the likelihood calculations required can be prohibitively time consuming. It is possible to speed up the computation via a technique which makes use a linearized distance kernel. Here in the second part of the talk, we examine some methods of carrying out this linearization and compare the performances of these methods.

Lorenzo Valla, the Reformers and Free-Will (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 12, 2015 - February 12, 2015

Reflection on free-will and determinism in Early Modern Philosophy (e.g. in the work of Thomas Hobbes and G.W. Leibniz) was precipitated by the claim of the Reformers Luther, Melanchthon, and Calvin that libertarian free-will is inconsistent with the divine attributes of omnipotence and foreknowledge. The Reformers didn’t take this insight to be their own discovery, however. Rather, they pointed to Lorenzo Valla, the great 15th century Italian Renaissance philosopher, as having made this important discovery in his book De libero arbitrio (1439). In modern times, commentators on Valla have by and large rejected the Reformers’ anti-libertarian reading of Valla, holding instead that Valla was a friend of libertarian free-will. In my talk I argue that this is a mistake. I argue that a close reading of Valla’s book makes it clear that Valla is not only concerned with undermining libertarian free-will, but that his line of reasoning anticipates in remarkable detail the sort of arguments that later emerged in the work of the Reformers of the 16th century and were later endorsed by early modern philosophers such as Hobbes and (arguably) Leibniz. Anders Kraal (PhD Uppsala) is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the History of Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy at the University of Calgary. He has papers published or forthcoming in Synthese, Philosophy Compass, History and Philosophy of Logic, Hume Studies, International Philosophical Quarterly, and elsewhere. The present talk is based on his paper “Valla-style determinism and Luther’s De servo arbitrio,” forthcoming in Harvard Theological Review. This event is free and open to the public.

ANARKY Talks Presents: Bioarchaeological Analysis of an Elite Burial Tomb with Possible Human Sacrifices at Paquimé, Chihuahua, Mexico (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 11, 2015 - February 11, 2015

ANARKY Talks is a weekly lecture series by the Department of Anthropology and Archaeology. Bioarchaeological Analysis of an Elite Burial Tomb with Possible Human Sacrifices at Paquimé, Chihuahua, Mexico This analysis focuses on the most complex burial discovered at Paquimé, a subfloor tomb containing the remains of at least 12 individuals. The goal of this study is to evaluate the hypothesis that the upper level of disarticulated and fragmentary human remains represents a sacred offering to the elite individuals below through a comparative analysis of health indicators, trauma, postmortem processing, pathology, and taphonomy. The results suggest that there are significant differences between the two burial layers, particularly in terms of post-mortem processing (e.g., cutmarks), age-at-death structure, and overall health of the individuals. Not only do these findings support the research hypothesis, they also provide an additional line of evidence for increasing social differentiation during the Medio period at Paquimé. Free to Attend and Open to the Public Sponsored by Chacmool & Kula Ring.

Language Research Centre Speaker Series presents Sophia Van HeesPsychology (U of C) (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 6, 2015 - February 6, 2015

Please join us on February 6 for the next talk in our speaker series “Language Acquisition and Learning.” Sophia Thon (Psychology) will give a talk entitled “Mapping the brain mechanisms of naming-treatment post-stroke”. Please see the LRC website (http://arts.ucalgary.ca/lrc/) for the abstract. Mapping the Brain Mechanisms of Naming-Treatment Post-Stroke Impaired naming is one of the most common difficulties in people with aphasia, and is therefore a major focus of therapy in the rehabilitation of language post-stroke. Such therapy typically employs tasks that focus on word meaning (semantics) and/or word form (phonology), in order to target the major cognitive components involved in word retrieval. However, the relationship between an individual’s locus of breakdown in word retrieval and their response to different treatment tasks remains unclear. Neuroimaging techniques may aid in understanding the neural and linguistic mechanisms underlying treatment-induced recovery and provide improved predictors of treatment success. This talk will outline the results of a series of studies investigating the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying anomia treatment, and discuss potential future directions of this research. Please consider bringing your own mug for a greener cup of coffee!

Family: Career Friend or Foe? (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 6, 2015 - February 6, 2015

For early-career scholars and clinicians, conversations about life at work and life outside of it are often had in hushed voices or behind closed doors. This is in large part due to the precarious employment status of advanced trainees and the delay between completing professional training and ensuring job security. This event is an invitation to bring together early-career scholars, clinicians, and their allies for a safe conversation around the healthy balance of family and career commitments. The guided nature of the dialogue refers to the participation of senior mentors to share knowledge on workplace norms and expectations related to issues such as family health, child care, and parental leaves. The event is intended to, if relevant, kick start a series of conversations towards promoting life balance and wellbeing among early-career scholars and clinicians. It is a gender inclusive event, so all are welcome. To register, please go to the AWA website: http://www.ucalgary.ca/awa/ This event has been made possible with the support of the following collaborators: Postdoctoral Program Office of the Vice President (Research), University of Calgary Population Health Inequities Research Centre (PHIRC), O’Brien Institute for Public Health Office of Equity & Professionalism, Cumming School of Medicine Office of Faculty Development, Cumming School of Medicine

Philosophy Speakers: Kathrin Koslicki (Alberta), "Form, Matter, Substance" (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 6, 2015 - February 6, 2015

Social Sciences Building, Room 1253 About the Talk The following three central tenets are popular among neo-Aristotelians: (i) hylomorphism, viz., the doctrine that structured wholes are best analyzed as hylomorphic compounds, i.e., compounds of matter (hylē) and form (morphē or eidos); (ii) independence criteria of substancehood; and (iii) the desire to assign substance status to at least some hylomorphic compounds (e.g., living organisms). These three commitments, when taken together, appear to lead to the following conflict. Given the metaphysical complexity of hylomorphic compounds, one wonders whether these entities will not turn out to be ontologically dependent on, and hence potentially less fundamental than, other entities numerically distinct from them, viz., their form and possibly their matter as well. Such an outcome, however, would seem to jeopardize the inclusion of hylomorphic compounds among the substances. The question of how best to resolve the apparent conflict which arises from these commitments would certainly be of central interest to neo-Aristotelians who find themselves attracted to the three tenets identified above. In this paper, I will present what I take to be the most promising strategy for neo-Aristotelians who wish to resolve the apparent tension just noted in a way that is maximally consistent with their other commitments About the Speaker Kathrin Koslicki is Professor of Philosophy and Canada Research Chair in Epistemology and Metaphysics at the University of Alberta. She specializes in metaphysics, philosophy of language, and ancient philosophy. The author of numerous chapters and journal articles, her 2008 bookThe Structure of Objects (Oxford University Press) became available in paperback in 2010.

Design Matters with Sujit Nair (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 4, 2015 - February 4, 2015

Cities and habitats in India are marked by contrasts – in culture, politics, technology...paradoxically, it is this lack of consistency that creates opportunities for differentiated responses, and dialogue. Nair will analyze the many unique conditions that these contexts pose: the links with history, modernism and other relevant passages in time that have shaped and continue to impact neo-Indian ideologues. The shift into the present coincides with a time of openness (in thought) debate, and many references. SDeG is interested in design that connects in several ways with its circumstances, the moments of difference, the many reactions that their work might trigger. Join EVDS at 6:00pm at the Downtown Campus (906 8 Avenue SW) as Nair explores how design operates at the intersection of extreme contextual contrasts. Admission is free for students, $10 for non-students. Public welcome. Date: Wednesday, February 4 Time: 6:00pm-7:30pm Location: University of Calgary Downtown Campus, 906 8 Avenue SW

Location:

Downtown campus

Speaker:

Sujit Nair is principal designer and founder of SDeG. In the past, he has worked as an architect at Zaha Hadid Architects, London in project teams that won several international design competitions (including the ‘Aquatic Centre’ - 2012 London Olympics).

In a constant of engagement - Design Matters with Sujit Nair (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 4, 2015 - February 4, 2015

Join EVDS at the Downtown Campus for Design Matters with Sujit Nair, principal designer and founder of SDeG in Bangalore, India. Summary Our cities (in India) and habitats are marked by contrasts – in culture, politics, technology...paradoxically, it is this lack of consistency that creates opportunities for differentiated responses, and dialogue. Can design operate at the intersection of extreme contextual contrasts? “The ‘initial story’ is what we’re really interested in” – We take inspiration from what’s both immediate and uncertain, to create themes, drafts and diagrams that drive our design methodologies. Our work emerges from a continuous dialogue between process and outcome - a series of encounters with personalities, program, terrain and technology. We will also look to analyze the many unique conditions that our contexts pose, the links with history, modernism and other relevant passages in time that have shaped and continue to impact neo-Indian ideologues. The shift into the present coincides with a time of openness (in thought) debate, and many references. We’re interested in design that connects in several ways with its circumstances, the moments of difference, the many reactions that our work might trigger.

Barcelona Travel Emergency: Toward an Architecture of Tourism (University of Calgary)

Category: Other Event
Dates: February 2, 2015 - February 2, 2015

EVDS welcomes Rafael Gómez-Moriana to campus for a guest lecture exploring architecture's fundamental value-shift from production to consumption, from the everyday to tourism, and from mass-culture to élite culture using recently built works as examples. Summary: Barcelona is now the fourth most visited city in Western Europe after London, Paris, and Rome, even though it's significantly smaller than these capital cities. Two decades of spectacular tourism growth, mainly visitors to built works by Gaudí and other Modernistas but also recent and contemporary works, is provoking important changes in the urban ecology of that city. Heritage has become such a tourist attraction in Barcelona that many buildings are today designed effectively as tourist attractions, such that the city is essentially shifting from 'a tourism of architecture' to 'an architecture of tourism'. Barcelona is not alone, of course, its shift reflecting what is in fact a larger cultural transformation occurring in many cities throughout the world. Once mostly sites of production, cities are increasingly becoming places of consumption. Barcelona is a good example: in the 19th century, its many textile mills garnered it the sobriquet "Manchester of the South", but today it is seen as one of the foremost destinations for consumers of gastronomy, art, fashion and design.

Location:

Professional Faculties building - Room 2160

Speaker:

Rafael Gómez-Moriana is a Barcelona-based architect, writer and educator locally managing the EVDS Barcelona term-Abroad Program. He is a graduate of the University of Waterloo as well as the Berlage Institute, and has taught at University of Manitoba, Carleton University, and the Metropolis Master Program on Architecture and Urban Studies of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. His writings have been published in magazines such as OnSite Review, Canadian Architect, Lotus, Log, and Mark Magazine, to which he contributes regularly, as well as in several books, most recently the collection of essays Critical Juncture. His blog can be read at criticalista.com.
