Art of the Demo: Activity Mapping By Juan Francisco Saldarriaga

Event: Columbia University Libraries' Data Visualization Week: The Art of Data Visualization
Foursquare check-ins? Citibike rides? Open data can tell us a lot about our cities and how we use them: what we think of them, how we feel about them and how we live in them. In this talk we will present two research projects that use this data to explore and understand how people live in New York. We will analyze check-in data from Foursquare and Facebook to examine how social media activity relates to socio-economic factors and what this kind of data can tell us about how people feel about the modern city. We will also analyze Citibike ride data visualizing the imbalance problems the system faces. All of this, while also exploring multiple ways of representing spatial data.

Summer Science Exhibition 2016: Diamond - more than just a gemstone


source: The Royal Society    2016年6月9日
The unique material with a glittering future.
Imagine a diamond. What do you see? Many people will think of a glittering gemstone on jewellery. But the amazing properties of diamond make it ideal for a host of cutting edge applications in electronics, computing, sensing, measuring and more. Our exhibit will highlight the extreme properties and enormous potential of this material, revealing diamond as so much more than just a gemstone.
Our free, week-long festival (Monday 4 July - Sunday 10 July) features 22 curated exhibits and a series of inspiring talks and activities for all ages.

本課程是由交通大學通識教育中心提供。
 對數位資訊熟練的新世代而言,動漫畫往往是在日常娛樂當中淺移默化影響我們最深刻的大眾流行媒介。我們從小對電玩、卡通、繪本、­漫畫這些流行媒介的閱聽產生了習慣,到了青少年時期,更由於對「性」產生好奇,而去下載色情動漫、玩戀愛模擬遊戲、看愛情漫畫、­「萌」美少女美少男等等。我們從這些動漫電玩的內容,學會了各種社會文化規範,包括如何認識自我、學習性別差異、了解對性別的社­會期待、遵從主流的戀愛與婚姻模式等等,而情慾滿足正是粉絲們會對動漫電玩感興趣的主要動機之一。因此,這堂課試圖透過深入探討­在動漫作品當中所重現的性別面貌,讓同學們了解大眾媒介對當代人類生活,特別是性別觀念的影響,例如傳統父權社會的意識形態如何­透過動漫作品再製男女的不平等關係和性別刻板印象等等。
 此外,動漫作品的分類有:少年、少女、青年、淑女和成人漫畫等,這些分類很明顯地有性別與年齡的區隔,此課程將分析這些類別所分­別呈現出來的性別差異以及其社會意涵,而又例如色情動漫、BL、百合、蘿莉塔、萌系美少女、偽娘等,這些或多或少代表著各種性少­數、異色文化、具爭議性的動漫文化現象,事實上也正反映著當代社會的多元性別面貌。
因此,此課程的目的為:

1.透過對多元動漫的介紹,讓同學們了解到在動漫中如何複製傳統父權關係,獲得足以獨立思考與批判不平等性別關係的能力;
2.期望同學藉此擴展對當代社會中多元性別的了解與尊重;
3.並提升個人對於社會中性別弱勢者、性少數族群、性邊緣者的人文關懷

Richard Barker: "Multiple Monitors of the Mind" | Talks at Google


source: Talks at Google     2016年6月15日
Hypnotherapist and comedian Richard Barker came by the Google NYC office to deliver a program called "Multiple Monitors of the Mind," which demonstrates a laser focus through Self Hypnosis Mastery and multi-tasking explained through the subconscious mind.

High achievers all have one thing in common -- guided focus. During the event, Richard will talk about multi and micro subconscious tasking and having multiple monitors in the mind. It has been proven that each thought and task becomes degraded with multiple focus -- so how do we laser focus on individual achievement?

Hypnosis is the continuous stream of focus that creates the clear visualization of the end product. Staying internally focused on a given suggestion is more powerful than knowledge. Therefore, the instant you think of something else, the task in hand diminishes. You will learn how to self-hypnotize and may even realize some of you are doing it already.

Jessica Herrin: "Find Your Extraordinary" | Talks at Google

Jessica Herrin, CEO & Founder of Stella & Dot, joins Talks at Google for a Q&A as she discusses her book "Find Your Extraordinary: Dream Bigger, Live Happier, and Achieve Success on Your Own Terms".

ABOUT THE BOOK
What if you could, with a little effort, live an extraordinary life? A life in which you felt deep passion for everything you did, and always had time for what matters most? A life in which you had the power, the daring, and the will to make your boldest dreams come true, all while you happily left feelings of inadequacy or guilt behind?
In FIND YOUR EXTRAORDINARY: DREAM BIGGER, LIVE HAPPIER, AND ACHIEVE SUCCESS ON YOUR OWN TERMS Jessica DiLullo Herrin, serial entrepreneur and founder and CEO of Stella & Dot Family Brands, shows how the classic traits of a successful entrepreneur are ones each of us can develop to live an extraordinary life, whether we work a corporate job, run a family, or run our own business. Offering realistic and attainable steps to achieve success on our own terms, Herrin inspires and empowers us to dial up the sound of our own voices and make our authentic dreams a reality.

Nancy Hachisu: "Preserving the Japanese Way" | Talks at Google


source: Talks at Google     2016年5月16日
Nancy's latest book, Preserving the Japanese Way: Traditions of Salting, Fermenting, and Pickling for the Modern Kitchen offers a clear road map for preserving fruits, vegetables, and fish through a nonscientific, farm- or fisherman-centric approach. Recipe methods range from the ultratraditional— Umeboshi (Salted Sour Plums), Takuan (Half-Dried Daikon Pickled in Rice Bran), and Hakusai (Fermented Napa Cabbage) — to the modern: Zucchini Pickled in Shoyu Koji, Turnips Pickled with Sour Plums, and Small Melons in Sake Lees. Preserving the Japanese Way also introduces and demystifies one of the most fascinating ingredients to hit the food scene in a decade: koji. Koji is neither new nor unusual in the landscape of Japan fermentation, but it has become a cult favorite for quick pickling or marinades. Preserving the Japanese Way is a book about community, seasonality as the root of preserved food, and ultimately about why both are relevant in our lives today.
