Non-Event: Sonic Section Perspectives (For Paul Rudolph)
- Location: CVPA Auditorium
, CVPA-153
- Contact: Art History Department
- Description: Sonic Section Perspectives (For Paul Rudolph) presented by Non-Event
When: Friday, April 27, 2018 3-5pm,
Where: Atrium, CVPA Building, UMass Dartmouth
Sonic Section Perspectives (For Paul Rudolph) is an environmental sound performance conceived by Jose Rivera and Michael Rosenstein for six participant-collaborators. The one-hour composition draws on field recordings made within architectural spaces designed by Paul Rudolph throughout the Boston region. For its premiere performance, presented by Non-Event, Sonic Section Perspectives will be performed on multiple levels of the UMassD Dartmouth College of Visual and Performing Arts central atrium, with an introduction by Chris Grimley.
Performance participants:
Jose Rivera (aka Proxemia) is an architecturally trained multimedia artist who creates electroacoustic and experimental sound works. He explores the intersections of aural and spatial experience through multi-channel installation and performance, aural cartography, architectural design, and environmental sound recording. He studied sound and art in MIT's program of Art, Culture, and Technology. http://www.proxemiasound.net/
Michael Rosenstein explores the interaction of acoustic and electronic sounds in collectively improvised settings. In his music, he uses amplified surfaces, oscillators and home-made electronics, distressed field recordings, harmonics and overtones, exploiting and feeding off of the resultant unstable sonic events. http://www.variantstate.com/michael-rosenstein/
Matthew Azevedo (aka Retribution Body) is a musician, audio engineer, teacher, and acoustician currently based in Boston whose performance practice is centered on creating unique, immersive sound environments. His primary solo project Retribution Body uses analog electronics, high amplification, and a custom speaker array capable of reproducing subsonic energy to explore the mental and emotional states which arise in Zen meditation. https://retributionbody.bandcamp.com
Rachel Devorah is a Boston-based sonic artist, technologist, and social ontologist whose works for performance and installation engage the poetics of their specific context. She studied at the City University of New York (BMus), Mills College (MA), and the University of Virginia (PhD - in progress); is currently informationist at the Berklee College of Music; and will be the 2018-2019 MultiDisciplinary Fellow at the Adrian Piper Foundation, Berlin. http://racheldevorah.studio/
Nicole L'Huillier is a transdisciplinary artist, musician and architect based in Boston. She is currently working as a PhD researcher at the MIT Media Lab in the Opera of The Future group. Her work explores spatial experience, perception and the relationship between sound & space. http://nicolelhuillier.com
Nika Nika (aka Nika) a sonic artist. She earned her PhD in electrical engineering at MIT and is currently a postdoctoral researcher at MIT, interested in the practice of energy, nature, sound, and nanotechnology. Her octophonic works, including original music for the play Einstein's Dreams, have been heard at MIT, Dreamscapes, and Arisia. Analog synthesizers, such as a vintage multi-panel Serge that she restored, feature prominently in many of her works.
PRESENTER:
Non-Event (Susanna Bolle, Executive & Artistic Director) is an independent experimental sound and music series, based in Boston, Massachusetts. Founded in 2001, members have presented over 360 concerts by local, national, and international artists in traditional and non-traditional spaces in and around the city. In recent years, Non-Event has organized large site-specific and site-responsive performances for iconic buildings, such as the Metropolitan Waterworks Museum and the giant interior mezzanine of Boston's brutalist City Hall.

Introduction:
Chris Grimley is a partner at the firm over,under, an interdisciplinary practice that creates built environments and designed experiences through the lens of advocacy. His co-authored book, Heroic: Concrete Architecture and the New Boston has been awarded honors by Docomomo and the Boston Preservation Alliance. In addition, he curates the pinkcomma gallery, is a co-founder of Design Biennial Boston, and released the Boston Brutalist Map, published by Blue Crow Media, in 2017.
This performance is part of the spring 2018 series "Playing the Campus," during which the UMass Dartmouth College of Visual and Performing Arts (CVPA) celebrates its brutalist residential campus with public events dedicated to Paul Rudolph and his legacy. This series will include art installations, live performances, lectures, film screenings, community forums, tours, and an exhibition in the CVPA Campus Gallery, "A Visionary Campus: Paul Rudolph and UMass Dartmouth." All events are free and open to the public. https://www.umassd.edu/cvpa/galleries/

The UMass Dartmouth College of Visual and Performing Arts proudly presents its 2018 Thesis Exhibition in two locations in Downtown New Bedford from March 31 through May 12. Fourteen graduating students representing a wide range of media including painting, printmaking, sculpture, photography and design are exhibiting their work for the first time, not only at the Star Store Campus, but also at the New Bedford Art Museum/Artworks!
The presented work, according to Viera Levitt, exhibition co-curator and University Art Gallery director, is driven by compelling and engaging themes such as vulnerability, feminism, cultural differences, spatial explorations, and the disappearing life of the American farm.
The Museum will feature works in ceramics, sculpture, fiber, digital art, prints, drawings, paintings, and a virtual reality experience within their Fiber Optic Center New Media Gallery. The exhibition co-curator, Jamie Uretsky, New Bedford Art Museum/ArtWorks!, says, she is "always looking for compelling emerging talent and this year's batch of CVPA graduates are just that!"
The exhibition catalog, designed by UMass Dartmouth Graphic Design students, will be available during the reception on April 7. Artist talks will take place in both spaces during AHA! Night on May 12 (6 pm Star Store Campus, 7 pm Museum). In June, selections from this exhibition will be on display at Soprafina Gallery in the urban arts district, South of Washington (SoWa), in Boston (Opening Reception Friday, June 1st).

ECE Seminar* Speaker: Dr. Krishna Venkatasubramanian, Assistant Professor, Worcester Polytechnic Institute
- Location: > See description for location
- Cost: Free
- Contact: ECE: Electrical & Computer Engineering Department
- Description: Topic: INFORMATION SECURITY IN THE WEARABLE INTERNET OF THINGS
Location: College of Engineering Conference Room, Textiles Building (TXT), Room 101E
Abstract:
Recent years have seen the emergence of the wearable IoT (Internet of Things). The WIoT is composed of sensor-based systems that go beyond existing fitness trackers and have the capability to monitor a user's vital signs and other physiological markers (e.g., ECG, glucose, and blood pressure). Such WIoT systems hold great promise for a variety of applications, from enabling novel biometrics to wellness, and even fashion.
In this talk I present two of my projects related to maintaining information-security properties for these WIoT systems. In the first part of my talk I will present a data-driven approach that can detect data-manipulation attacks (i.e., adversaries try to introduce bad patient-state information into the system) on medical WIoT systems in real-time. The second part of my talk is about a novel authentication solution for Smart Eyewear WIoT devices that use the wearer's blinking pattern and subtle head movements as a biometric.
