  • Local Ecologies: Cultural Currents of Eastern Massachusetts
  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: Office of Faculty Development
  • Description: Facilitators: Rebecca Uchill UMASS Dartmouth Kirsten Swenson UMASS Lowell Office of Faculty Development: Library 213 Local Ecologies: Cultural Currents of Eastern Massachusetts is a publication that convenes interdisciplinary artists, scholars, and activists to explore the layered histories that form the diverse ecosystems of Eastern Massachusetts. This peer-reviewed volume will be published in an open-access format with a number of intermedia digital components. These include a series of video roundtables, downloadable artist books, and other genre-defying content. The exhibition and program series Local Ecologies (2019-2020, occurring on three UMass campuses) had a tremendous local impact, including an artist residencies with the National Park Service, a now-annual "indigenous harbor islands" tour, and a video artwork that toured to the MFA Boston and the Tufts University Art Galleries. The in-process publication documenting this initiative will expand the reach of this work to broader audiences through a free and open-access written book that will be supplemented by a number of media components. Our innovative format, hosted by Amherst College Press via a platform called Fulcrum, expands the field of scholarly publication by forging a presentational platform that can better support the visual and experimental matter of the arts. From the harbors of Boston and New Bedford to the canals of the Merrimack River, the research-driven art projects in this volume offer new methods for exploring the many ecologies that constitute our environment, broadly defined, and offers new vantages for approaching questions of social and environmental justice. Co-editors Kirsten Swenson and Rebecca Uchill teach art history at UMass Lowell and UMass Dartmouth, respectively. Swenson co-edited the volume Critical Landscapes: Art, Space, Politics (California, 2015) and is the author of Irrational Judgments: Eva Hesse, Sol LeWitt, and 1960s New York (Yale, 2015). She is writing a book entitled "Public Works: Land Art and Urban Redevelopment" supported by an ACLS Burkhardt Fellowship and Graham Foundation grant. Uchill has two decades of experience as a curator of contemporary art, having worked for institutions including Mass MoCA, the Indianapolis Museum of Art, and the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts. She has also worked with artists, scientists, and others as co-editor of interdisciplinary volumes including Experience: Culture, Cognition & The Common Sense (MIT Press, 2016) and Being Material (MIT Press, 2019), a recent AIGA competition awardee for its substantive integration of digital and print content. To register, please email Ellen Mandly at emandly@umassd.edu. In-person participation will be limited to the first 10 registrants; virtual participation is available to anyone.

  • Department of Estuarine and Ocean Sciences and Department of Fisheries Oceanography Joint Seminar by Sarah Salois
  • Location: > See description for location

  • Description: The School for Marine Science and Technology Department of Estuarine and Ocean Sciences and Department of Fisheries Oceanography Joint Seminar Announcement "Development of oceanographic indicators for Northern shortfin squid" Sarah L. Salois University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Northeast Fisheries Science Center, NOAA Wednesday, September 22, 2021 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm SMAST East Rooms 101/102 And Via Zoom Abstract: Oceanographic satellite data provide a powerful tool for assessing dynamic marine systems in a changing world. Remotely sensed data are well suited for environmental analysis and ecological forecasting as they provide synoptic, near real-time coverage of oceanographic conditions at high spatial (1-2 km) and temporal (daily) resolutions. These types of data are particularly useful for the assessment and management of commercially important marine species, such as the Northern shortfin squid, Illex illecebrosus. Illex are a fairly data poor species due to their sub annual lifespan and offshore migrations. Recent years have seen above average availability to the US fishery, yet the drivers associated with the high abundance years are unknown. Additionally, multiple studies have documented significant changes in the physical oceanography of the Northwest Atlantic. The variable population dynamics exhibited by Illex are thought to be largely influenced by oceanographic conditions, thus this work aims to identify the oceanographic drivers contributing to the seasonal and inter-annual variability in Illex abundance and distribution. **************************************************************************** Join Zoom Meeting https://umassd.zoom.us/j/97440069270?pwd=L2Z1bDZESTFCKzJYZWduYVhWenYvZz09 Meeting ID: 974 4006 9270 Passcode: 428029 One tap mobile +13017158592,,97440069270#,,,,*428029# US (Washington DC) +13126266799,,97440069270#,,,,*428029# US (Chicago) Dial by your location +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) +1 646 876 9923 US (New York) +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose) Meeting ID: 974 4006 9270 Passcode: 428029 Find your local number: https://umassd.zoom.us/u/adtxYu9NMO Join by SIP 97440069270@zoomcrc.com Join by H.323 162.255.37.11 (US West) 162.255.36.11 (US East) 115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai) 115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad) 213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands) 213.244.140.110 (Germany) 103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney) 103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne) 149.137.40.110 (Singapore) 64.211.144.160 (Brazil) 149.137.68.253 (Mexico) 69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto) 65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver) 207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo) 149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka) Meeting ID: 974 4006 9270 Passcode: 428029 **************************************************************************** For additional information, please contact Sue Silva at s1silva@umassd.edu

  • Exploring "Hyflex" Teaching
  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: Office of Faculty Development
  • Description: Facilitator: Kristin McGillicudy, Assistant Dean for Operations, College of Arts and Sciences Office of Faculty Development: Library 213 Join us for an exploration of the "hyflex" modality of teaching. This workshop will explore practical applications of combining in-person and online learning and will focus on ways to incorporate hyflex elements into your current face-to-face course. This workshop will be ideal for those looking for ways to accommodate students (or yourself!) during a semester made uncertain by the pandemic. We will explore the following questions: How do I manage the technology (especially if I only have my laptop and web cam)? How can students work in groups when some are online and others are in the classroom? How can I keep all student engaged no matter how they're attending? How can I ensure an inclusive and equitable environment in a hyflex course? The workshop will include a short demo of a sample class using a laptop and basic web cam. Assistant Dean McGillicudy has designed and taught multiple courses in hyflex, online asynchronous, online synchronous and traditional in-person modalities at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Participants are welcome to bring questions and to share best practices from their own teaching experiences. Please note: This workshop will work most effectively if we have both in-person and virtual participants; thus we encourage those who are able and willing to participate in person to do so. To register, please email Ellen Mandly at emandly@umassd.edu. In-person participation will be limited to the first 10 registrants; virtual participation is available to anyone. Please make your preference known when registering. Lunch is provided for in-person participants.

  • AMANDA MEANS: LIGHT YEARS
  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: > See Description for contact information
  • Description: University of Massachusetts Dartmouth is delighted to host a career survey of the work of renowned U.S. artist Amanda Means at the University Art Gallery in Star Store Campus, Downtown New Bedford. For over forty years, Amanda Means has created a body of work that has pushed the boundaries of the photographic medium with her celebrated Leaf, Flower, Water Glass, and Light Bulb series of images. Means has been a darkroom innovator throughout her career: adapting a 19th century camera for use as an enlarger, photographing objects without the use of negatives, working with a large-format Polaroid camera, and creating a series of remarkable abstracts working only with light and photographic materials. The artist's darkroom alchemy was cited by the Guggenheim Foundation in awarding Means their prestigious Fellowship in 2017 for her contribution to contemporary photography. Our survey exhibition, Means' first retrospective, includes examples of work from all phases of her career. Alongside key pieces from her color Polaroid Light Bulb and silver gelatin Water Glass works, we are excited to be showing some of the artist's early prints and works on paper, as well as important examples of her black and white Flower and Light Bulb works. This affords a unique opportunity to view Means' most celebrated images in the broader context of her overall practice. Amanda Means is a graduate of Cornell University and SUNY Buffalo, and is a 2017 Guggenheim Fellow, awarded for her contribution to contemporary photography. She has exhibited widely in the U.S. and abroad, and her work is included in numerous collections including the Whitney Museum of American Art; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston; the MIT List Visual Arts Center; the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, N.Y.; and the Nicola Erni Collection, Switzerland. The artist is represented by JHB Gallery, New York, and lives and works in Beacon, New York.

  • Norman Ives: Constructions & Reconstructions
  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: > See Description for contact information
  • Description: The College of Visual and Performing Arts (CVPA) at UMass Dartmouth is proud to present Norman Ives: Constructions & Reconstructions, in the CVPA Campus Gallery from September 7 through October 23. This major exhibition of Ives's work as artist and designer showcases some early works that will be on display for the first time. There will be a reception for the exhibition on September 23 from 5 to 7 p.m. featuring exhibition curator John T. Hill. All attendees must wear a mask when inside any building at UMass Dartmouth. The exhibition contains Ives's abstract typographic art, innovative posters and brochures, and elegant symbol designs that have inspired generations of designers and artists. Ives's range of talent became evident in 1967 when his eight-foot square painting, Number 3-L, was selected for the 1967 Whitney Annual Exhibition of American Artists. That same year, the Museum of Modern Art mounted an exhibition titled 3 graphic designers featuring the work of Norman Ives, Massimo Vignelli, and Almir Mavignier. The exhibition is curated by John T. Hill, author, designer, and a former student and faculty colleague of Ives. Ives and Hill were part of Yale University's Department of Graphic Design led by Alvin Eisenman, whose orchestration of groundbreaking faculty reshaped the field of commercial art into a more demanding profession, graphic design. Hill produced the first comprehensive account of Ives's work in his book Norman Ives: Constructions & Reconstructions, in 2020. "In the history of art, there are striking examples of works rising to a level called timeless: Clovis points, Corinthian helmets, Paul Klee's drawings, and Josef Albers's paintings," noted Hill. "Ives's work defines a high point in the teaching and practice of graphic design. His symbols communicate with nuance and clarity, ideas reaching a wide audience. His innovations were grace notes for graphic design. This exhibition marks Ives's passion for letterforms, which became his lyrical strokes, their construction and reconstruction defining his work." Ives's paintings and collages are collected by major museums including the Guggenheim Museum and Yale University Art Gallery. Ives had numerous exhibitions, notably the Chicago Art Institute, Institute of Contemporary Arts, Boston, and the Neuberger Gallery at SUNY Purchase. Jan Fairbairn, who teaches graphic design and typography at UMass Dartmouth, initiated the exhibition after experiencing Ives's work while studying Graphic Design at Yale School of Art where she first met John Hill. "Bringing Ives's work to UMass Dartmouth is like importing Ives's genius and sensibilities. He is recognized as an important early twentieth-century modernist. My students and everyone on campus will have the opportunity to absorb this artwork up close, and learn from Ives's sophisticated abstract compositions," said Fairbairn. Norman Ives: Constructions & Reconstructions will be shown in the CVPA Campus Gallery at 285 Old Westport Road in Dartmouth, Massachusetts from September 7 through October 23.

  • Description: Mechanical Engineering (MNE) SEMINAR DATE: September 24, 2021 TIME: 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. LOCATION: Charlton College of Business (CCB), Room 115 SPEAKER: Dr. Yunxing Su, Postdoc Department of Mechanical Engineering, Brown University TOPIC: Hydrokinetic Renewable Energy Harvesting Using Oscillating Hydrofoils ABSTRACT: Renewable energy is energy that is harvested from renewable resources, which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat. Compared to conventional energy (fossil fuels), renewable energy is clean in consumption. In this talk, we will focus on the tidal energy harvesting, which is essentially extracting hydrokinetic energy from moving fluids (rivers or tides) by using oscillating hydrofoils. Experiments were conducted in a water flume with hydrofoils operating in different configurations and energy harvesting efficiency is evaluated to find the optimal conditions. I will first talk about the prescribed system, in which the hydrofoil motion is predefined by the experimentalist. In such a system, we explored the energy harvesting performance of a single hydrofoil in a confined channel and the interaction of two hydrofoil operating in a tandem configuration (in line). Then I will move to the passive system, which is achieved by using a force-feedback cyber-physical system to realize a spring-mass-damper system. In such a system, we optimized the energy harvesting performance and aeroelastic instability of a single foil under various elastic mountings. In addition, Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) measurements of the flow fields were used to help understand the energy harvesting performance of the hydrofoil. BIO: Dr. Yunxing Su received his Bachelor of Science at University of Science and Technology of China in 2013. Then he moved to Brown University to pursue his PhD degree in School of Engineering under the supervision of Professor Kenny Breuer focusing on renewable energy harvesting using oscillating hydrofoils. After earning his PhD degree in 2019, he joined Professor Roberto Zenit's lab at Brown University as a postdoctoral researcher working on multiphase flow, including viscous filament coiling instability, viscoelastic helical swimming, and bubbly flow in viscoelastic fluids. For more information please contact Dr. Hangjian Ling, MNE Seminar Coordinator (hling1@umassd.edu). All are welcome. Students taking MNE-500 are REQUIRED to attend! All other MNE BS and MS students are encouraged to attend. All EAS students are encouraged to attend. Light refreshments will be served.

  • AMANDA MEANS: LIGHT YEARS
  • Location: > See description for location
  • Contact: > See Description for contact information
  • Description: University of Massachusetts Dartmouth is delighted to host a career survey of the work of renowned U.S. artist Amanda Means at the University Art Gallery in Star Store Campus, Downtown New Bedford. For over forty years, Amanda Means has created a body of work that has pushed the boundaries of the photographic medium with her celebrated Leaf, Flower, Water Glass, and Light Bulb series of images. Means has been a darkroom innovator throughout her career: adapting a 19th century camera for use as an enlarger, photographing objects without the use of negatives, working with a large-format Polaroid camera, and creating a series of remarkable abstracts working only with light and photographic materials. The artist's darkroom alchemy was cited by the Guggenheim Foundation in awarding Means their prestigious Fellowship in 2017 for her contribution to contemporary photography. Our survey exhibition, Means' first retrospective, includes examples of work from all phases of her career. Alongside key pieces from her color Polaroid Light Bulb and silver gelatin Water Glass works, we are excited to be showing some of the artist's early prints and works on paper, as well as important examples of her black and white Flower and Light Bulb works. This affords a unique opportunity to view Means' most celebrated images in the broader context of her overall practice. Amanda Means is a graduate of Cornell University and SUNY Buffalo, and is a 2017 Guggenheim Fellow, awarded for her contribution to contemporary photography. She has exhibited widely in the U.S. and abroad, and her work is included in numerous collections including the Whitney Museum of American Art; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston; the MIT List Visual Arts Center; the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, N.Y.; and the Nicola Erni Collection, Switzerland. The artist is represented by JHB Gallery, New York, and lives and works in Beacon, New York.
