Anthropogenic emissions have triggering new carbon emission loops. destruction of habitats is leading to species instabilitie s with potential impacts on food production\, globalization & increasing w ealth inequality is leading to economic instabilities\, changing food to a commodity is leading to mental and physical health issues and the massive increase in our capacity to destroy has shrunk the time scales of destruc tion to much less that the time scales required for healing. So what are w e to do? I shall explore 10 simple suggestions:\n 1. Re-establish co ntinuity between generations \n 2. Seek harmony rather th an conflict \n 3. Learn to how live on a fini te planet \n 4. Re-establish food as part of life \n 5. Introduce carbon/water neutral living \n 6. Curb wealth inequity\n 7. Foster mental and physi cal well being\; curb advertising\n 8. Subdue technology\, re-introd uce "Creative Loafing"\n 9. Foster local diversity of job opportunit y\n 10.

It is located in west-central Idaho\, USA\, at approximately 1600 m above sea level\, in an extremely harsh environme nt where winter temperatures regularly reach 30 degrees below zero. The U. S. Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) has historically operated the reservoir for irrigation water supply\, flood control\, and limited hydroelectric power production. More recently\, the reservoir has also been used to augment s tream flows for out-migrating salmon.\n\nIn 2005\, the U.S. Fish and Wildl ife Service completed a Biological Opinion that required BOR to investigat e flexibility in its operation of Deadwood Reservoir to improve conditions for bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) in the Deadwood River and Reservo ir. In response\, a 5-year investigation of reservoir operations flexibili ty for Deadwood River and Reservoir was instituted\, including a holistic watershed assessment\, coupled with adaptive management.\n \nOne of the im portant management tools developed by the investigation was a coupled thre e-dimensional hydrodynamic-ecological model of Deadwood Reservoir (ELCOM-C AEDYM) that was used to simulate changes in reservoir operations in order to assess conformance to the terms and conditions of the Biological Opinio n. The complexity of ELCOM-CAEDYM required collection and evaluation of su bstantial amounts of physical\, chemical\, and biological data from Deadwo od Reservoir and its tributaries. \n\nThis talk will give an overview of t he main physical and ecological characteristics of Deadwood Reservoir unde r historical dam operations and illustrate the environmental changes in re sponse to different operational scenarios simulated with ELCOM-CAEDYM. The results show how reservoir operations can potentially affect habitat cond itions and energy sources for bull trout\, as listed in the Biological Opi nion.\n\nShort Bio\,\n\nDr. Leticia Chamelete de Vilhena is a Research Ass ociate at the Centre for Water Research at the University of Western Austr alia.

Given the US’s separation-of-powers structure\, a grossly malapportioned Senate\, and a powerful Supreme Court\, American pr esidents have often found it difficult to enact their policy agendas or to respond quickly to major policy problems. Stalemate in US politics has b ecome increasingly problematic over the past thirty years. The polarizatio n of party politics is often seen as the major cause of this impasse\, and the post-1980 growth in partisanship has certainly played a significant r ole. At the same time\, interest group scholars argue that the proliferati on of groups and the growth of lobbying has rendered policy-making more di fficult\, especially given the advantages found within the American system that favor those opposed to change.\n\nThis lecture examines the roles pl ayed by parties and organized interests in producing stalemate\, as well a s introducing the idea that American voters may well play an important par t.\n\nCost: Free\, but RSVP essential.

While the first performance of Six Characters in Search of an Author to a Rome audience in May 1921 was almost booed off the stage i t has gone on to have many successful seasons and is still a major part of the theatrical repertoire. The play\, in part\, is Pirandello’s attack on the Italian theatre of the time\, with its actor-managers and star-system s\, its stock characterisations\, and its standard repertoire of romantic melodramas. However\, it is a play on many levels. It raises questions abo ut the nature of reality\, of what constitutes identity\, and how we can g auge what is truth. On another level it is a hysterical romantic melodrama about a warring family who live out their emotions on the skin. And\, it is also a deeply tragic revenge narrative – a tale of betrayal\, adultery\ , suicide and death.

There are literally thousands of references to sharks in poetry\, drama\, novels\, painting and sculpture. Since the twentieth c entury they have been appropriated for film\, TV and advertising campaigns \, but often in ways that have increased the perception of sharks as monst rous man-eaters.\n\nAn unconscious elision of the real shark\, about which we still know relatively little\, and the shark within human culture\, ab out which we all know something\, has generated many misconceptions about real sharks. Those who work with them closely often refer to them with adm iration and affection. They are acutely aware of the fact that it is the c ultural representation of sharks that has facilitated their exploitation\, some species of which are now on the verge of extinction.\n\nThis lecture will draw attention to the distinction between the monster that we have c reated and the real shark. It will explore some of the many representation s of sharks in a variety of artforms as a means of understanding the compl ex role of sharks in culture\, the human emotions that they evoke\, and th e impact of representation on their existence.\n\nVivienne Westbrook is an Associate Professor at National Taiwan University.

Yet his inter ests were more far reaching and included cognition and language\, dance an d movement\, the biology of music making\, music psychology\, and – perhap s surprisingly – composition. The very existence of Blacking’s composition s raises a number of enticing questions. What was the nature of his musica l language? What might a study of his compositions tell us about his ethno musicology? What might his ethnomusicology tell us about his compositions? These questions give rise to the central focus of this article: the inter section of Blacking’s composition and ethnomusicology. The article conclud es that Blacking’s conceptualisation of music as an expression of social p rocesses and cultural values extended beyond non-Western musics\, infusing the compositions which he himself created within the musical paradigm of his own culture. \n\n\nSpeakers: Professor Victoria Rogers\, UWA School of Music DTSTAMP:20130308T040402Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130311T041228Z LOCATION:Tunley Lecture Theatre\, School of Music\, UWA ORGANIZER;CN=Pip White:MAILTO:pip.white@uwa.edu.au SEQUENCE:2 SUMMARY:School of Music presents: Research Seminar Series - Victoria Roger s URL:http://events.uwa.edu.au/event/20130308T040402Z-1641-4365@events.uwa.e du.au/whatson/publicaffairs END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:P-20130314T073749Z-790-32587@events.uwa.edu.au DTSTART;TZID=/softwarestudio.org/Olson_20010626_2/Australia/Perth:20130528T180000 DTEND;TZID=/softwarestudio.org/Olson_20010626_2/Australia/Perth:20130528T190000 CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20130314T073749Z DESCRIPTION:A public lecture by Professor Lyn Beazley AO FTSE\, Chief Scie ntist of Western Australia.\n\nAustralia has a reputation for scientific d iscoveries and engineering innovations that are amongst the best in the wo rld.

Sensory Trap intends to explore the subjective colour perception of the honeybee in comparison to the human b y attempting to communicate with honeybee workers through ultraviolet pain tings. By overlaying several different perceptual filters\, she aims to i nvestigate the complexities of perception and deception in communication b etween human and non-human animals. Overall this project intends to contri bute to a body of work that aims to redefine our relationship with our env ironment and with non-human animals by turning away from an anthropocentri c view of the world. This project will be carried out in collaboration wi th the Centre for Integrated Bee Research at the University of WA. \n\nAde laide Cohalan is currently undertaking the Master of Biological Arts degre e with SymbioticA at the University of Western Australia. She has previou sly completed a Bachelor of Science (majoring in Zoology) and a Bachelor o f Visual Arts (majoring in Painting) at James Cook University in Townsvill e\, North Queensland.\n\nTalk#2\nThe increasing role of hobbyist and urban beekeepers in the maintenance of honeybee populations.\n\nIn the past sev en years more than a billion honeybees have died as a result of Colony Col lapse Disorder. The health of the honeybee was previously the interest ent omologists\, evolutionary biologists and beekeepers\, but the recent colla pse of colonies has created widespread concern. Artists\, designers\, engi neers\, filmmakers\, popular media and policy makers are increasingly reco gnizing the role of the honeybees within an ecological\, social and cultur al context. As a result of this growing awareness\, the traditional model of maintaining colonies is changing. Hobbyist and urban beekeeping has dra matically increased in developed countries around the world and offers an alternative model of colony maintenance. Rooftop apiaries are an increasin gly popular in cities like London\, Melbourne\, New York City and Paris. I n Switzerland\, hobbyists maintain the majority of honeybee populations.\n \nThis talk examines the existing model of honeybee maintenance – one in w hich a small number of beekeepers maintain the majority of hives – and loo ks at a potential alternative in which a large number of hobbyists and urb an apiarists maintain a small number of hives. This model is termed 'crowd keeping' and takes its cues from Switzerland's success with hobbyist beeke eping. The presentation will also look at potential needs and requirements for hobbyists and urban apiarists. The materials and forms of urban apiar ies need not adhere to the traditions of industrial beekeeping. New hive d esigns have the potential to increase human engagement with bees and emerg ing technologies such as 3D-printing may assist in the production of hives that fulfill the requirements of hobbyists and urban apiarists. \n\nDevon Ward is a designer\, interdisciplinary researcher and a prospective maste r of biological art at SymbioticA within the School of Anatomy\, Physiolog y and Human Biology at the University of Western Australia. He is a graphi c designer for the Centre for Integrated Bee Research (CIBER) and a member of the Australian Graphic Design Association. He obtained his bachelor's of fine arts from the University of Florida and has previously worked as a print and web designer. His current research investigates the interface b etween technology and biology.\n\nSpeakers: Adelaide Cohalan & Devon Ward DTSTAMP:20130527T051122Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130602T125247Z LOCATION:SymbioticA\, Room 228 Anatomy Physiology and Human Biology ORGANIZER;CN=Chris Cobilis:MAILTO:christopher.cobilis@uwa.edu.au SEQUENCE:2 SUMMARY:SymbioticA double feature w/ Adelaide Cohalan and Devon Ward : Sym bioticA presents two talks from the current roster of Master Biological Ar ts students URL:http://events.uwa.edu.au/event/20130527T051122Z-1691-3635@events.uwa.e du.au/whatson/publicaffairs END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:P-20130115T034601Z-2043-16448@events.uwa.edu.au DTSTART;TZID=/softwarestudio.org/Olson_20010626_2/Australia/Perth:20130531T190000 DTEND;TZID=/softwarestudio.org/Olson_20010626_2/Australia/Perth:20130531T200000 CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20130115T034601Z DESCRIPTION:Callaway Series is unreserved and ticketed at the door.

The unpre cedented nature of the collapse of the Federal seawalls protecting New Orl eans\, and the ensuing human\, social and environmental catastrophe\, burd ened journalists with extraordinary challenges personal\, ethical and prof essional. How does a journalist function when he is both a victim of\, and a witness to\, disaster?\n\nWhat are his or her ethical responsibilities as a human being\, and how do those responsibilities interface with his jo b\, when there are so many people in direct and immediate peril? What is t he role of storytelling in the aftermath of a disaster?\n\nThese questions become even more crucial when one considers the precipitous decline in th e business model of print newspapers\, and leaves open the question of who will provide this critical coverage when there is not a professional clas s of journalists willing to run toward danger? Many of these issues were e xplored in a short 8-minute video culled from more than 10 hours of interv iews with journalists from The Times-Picayune newspaper in New Orleans and the accompanying news website\, NOLA.com. With less than three years to t he 10th anniversary of that devastating storm\, a fuller\, documentary-len gth exploration of the media in Hurricane Katrina is envisioned.\n\nThis l ecture is part of the International Workshop ‘Investigating Catastrophe: C ommemoration\, Accountability and the Public Record of Disaster’ supported by the Institute of Advanced Studies at The University of Western Austral ia and The Australian Research Council.\n\nCost: Free\, but RSVP essential .

He became a member of the Legislative Assembly\, worked to achieve federation\, and with others achieved the creation of The Universi ty of Western Australia. He was knighted in 1911\, by coincidence in the y ear in which an Act of Parliament established this university. After his d eath his estate was ably managed by Alfred Langler\, and in 1926 the sum o f £425\,000 became available to build the Winthrop Hall and associated bui ldings. The architectural features of these buildings are described in the recently published book The Hackett Memorial Buildings at the University of Western Australia\, written by the speaker\, and will be illustrated in this lecture.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nEmeritus Professor John Melville-Jo nes\, a graduate of Cambridge University\, was appointed to a lectureship in Classics and Ancient History at UWA in 1957. In addition to teaching th e regular courses in Classics\, he developed an interest in ancient Greek and Roman art and architecture\, and taught courses in that area until 201 1.

Why\, for example\, can I be prevented from\npunching you or burning yo ur house down? Political and legal thinkers generally agree on the nature of the\nanswer to this question\, even if they disagree on the details. Th e answer focusses on the state and the\ncommunity. But in this talk\, I ar gue that this answer is wrong. What is more\, I will suggest that you alre ady\nknow it is wrong\, or at least that you knew it was wrong before you were programmed to think otherwise. We\nwill also discover that many other people knew this\, though most of them have been dead quite a while. The\ ntalk will suggest a better way to understand the political\, the legal (e specially private law) and our own\nrelations with other people.\n\nAllan Beever is a professor of law at the University of South Australia.

Therefore\, mo vement is relative\, means ever changing and is perceived as visceral and “alive”. The Symposium will include invited speakers from diverse discipl ines (art\, performance\, biology\, biophysics\, biomechanics\, and philos ophy) who will explore and interrogate the conceptual and technical relati ons between life (biological or artificial)\, movement and perceptions of "vitality”\, with the hope that some interesting meeting points and/or neg ations will emerge.\n\nThe symposium stems from an Australian Research Cou ncil project exploring the use of skeletal muscle tissue which is grown\, stimulated and activated in a techno-scientific surrogate “body”. This mov ing twitching (semi) living material evokes\, makes unease\, and asks\, in sensorial and theoretical means about issues of aliveness and agency. The project is concerned with onto-ethico-epistemological (Barad 2010) questi ons about life and the affect created through the phenomenon of movement.\ n\nWe will be probing into the (sometimes) uneasy and undefined areas of s hifting perceptions of life\, heralded by developments in the life science s and applied technologies\, coupled with the introduction of engineering principles into life sciences. In the light of ‘new materialism’\, ‘agenti al realism’ and when life is becoming a raw material to be engineered\, we will examine the position and role of movement as agency.\n\nSpeakers inc lude:\nMonika Bakke\, a philosopher who interrogates cross species and non -human communication at Adam Mickiewicz University\, Poznan\, Poland.\; An drew Pelling leads the Laboratory for Biophysical Manipulation at the Univ ersity of Ottawa\, which experiment with in vitro muscle cells and with ar tists.

The study of people’s beliefs about language\, including evaluations an d discriminations of language variety\, falls in the area of sociolinguist ics known as folk linguistics (Preston 2002).\n\nThis talk explores folk l inguistic accounts by speakers of Anglo-Celtic Australian English\, Argent inian River Plate Spanish and foreign language learners of Spanish in Aust ralia. The different attitudinal positions noted in the data are discussed vis-à-vis Preston’s (2002: 64) notions of ‘correctness’\, ‘ordinary langu age’\, ‘dialects’ and ‘errors’. Understanding language attitudes can help us make sense of who we are and how we are evaluated by others. This semin ar seeks to make a contribution to this understanding.\n\nAbout Dr Celeste Rodriguez Louro\n\nCeleste Rodriguez Louro joined UWA Linguistics as Assi stant Professor in 2011\, after completing a PhD in Linguistics at Melbour ne University in December 2009. Trained in Argentina\, the USA and Austral ia\, she specialises in language variation and change in English and Spani sh. Dr Rodriguez Louro’s research has been consistently funded internally and externally since 2002. This support has resulted in a growing publicat ion record\, including two recent publications on discourse-pragmatic aspe cts of Perth English–a variety previously undocumented in the sociolinguis tics literature–and the first-ever Corpus of English in Australia.\n\nShe has been invited to contribute her innovative research to international vo lumes\, has presented her work at more than 30 peer-reviewed conferences\, and has been invited to present her research to audiences in Argentina\, Austria\, Australia\, Canada\, France\, Spain and the USA. Dr Rodriguez Lo uro has a strong record of international collaborations and has led severa l panels and workshops on language variation and change.\n\nSolidly linked to her teaching\, Dr Rodriguez Louro’s research program has been enriched by contributions from Honours students\, research assistants\, and PhD ca ndidates. She has received nominations for her Honours supervision and und ergraduate teaching and has been nominated for a 2012 Young Investigator A ward. Dr Rodriguez Louro has acted as reviewer to several world- renowned journals and publishing houses\, has developed a strong record of media ap pearances\, and is committed to foregrounding to the general public the im portance of understanding language in society.\n\n\nPS* This seminar is fr ee and open to the public & no RSVP required.\n\n****All Welcome****\n\n\n \nSpeakers: Celeste Louro\, Assistant Professor of Linguistics\, Disciplin e Group of Linguistics \,Faculty of Arts\, The University of Western Austr alia DTSTAMP:20130521T031404Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130527T023119Z LOCATION:Blakers Lecture Room\, Ground Floor\, Mathematics Building\, The University of Western Australia ORGANIZER;CN=Askale Abebe:MAILTO:abebe@cwr.uwa.edu.au SEQUENCE:2 SUMMARY:CWR Presents : Language attitudes and us URL:http://events.uwa.edu.au/event/20130521T031404Z-1502-8234@events.uwa.e du.au/whatson/publicaffairs END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:P-20130605T024310Z-1502-27933@events.uwa.edu.au DTSTART;TZID=/softwarestudio.org/Olson_20010626_2/Australia/Perth:20130703T160000 DTEND;TZID=/softwarestudio.org/Olson_20010626_2/Australia/Perth:20130703T170000 CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20130605T024310Z DESCRIPTION:Lake Baikal has a unique natural heritage.

Food also marks religion\, where it f unctions as symbol\, as subject of petition\, and as a form of communion. \n\nGiven the significance of food in religious practice and identity\, wh at impact does conversion have on an individual’s foodways? What changes a ccompany\, or are expected to accompany\, conversion?

Pitman\, Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science\, University of New South Wales.\n\nThe report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change\, in 2007\, stated that there is “considerable confidence that climate models provide credible quantitative estimates of future climate change\, particu larly at continental scales and above.” Climate models really are extremel y useful tools for informing policy makes of how large and how fast climat e is likely to change in the next 50-100 years at continental scales and a bove. However\, most decision making to address vulnerability to climate c hange requires much more detailed information than provided at the contine ntal scale and requires temporal information around extremes that needs da ily\, and sometimes hourly information.\n\nThis talk will explain how rese archers in the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate System Science are wor king to resolve the scale challenge that confronts us. Professor Pitman wi ll highlight research that is now resolving ocean eddies\, convection proc esses\, and land surface processes at previously unprecedented spatial and temporal scales. He will also highlight where the limits remain in provid ing fine-scale climate projections – limits that are link science challeng es with high performance computing\, high-volume data and a worrying lack of quantitative and technologically capable graduate students.\n\nCost: Fr ee\, but registration required.

After trial\, he was photographed at the Ci ty Watchhouse. According to a local newspaper account\, his confusion was such that ‘when confronted by the camera he appeared to think that it was some awful instrument of the white man’s vengeance’. A print of this photo graph was sent by an Adelaide resident\, John Bagot\, in November of that year\, to the Curator of the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford. Some years late r the Curator mounted the print with a number of others from South Austral ia\, and added the information that Wanamuchoo had been ‘hanged for the mu rder of a shepherd’. However\, it is clear from contemporary reports that he was in fact considered insane at trial and sent to the City Asylum\, wh ere he seems to have survived a further eleven years\, dying there in Marc h 1903. The case of Wanamuchoo caused a lively debate in the press of the day on the topic of the applicability of English law to Aboriginal cases s uch as this\, and its themes of dislocation\, mistranslation and separatio n continue to resonate for many Aboriginal people to this day. This lectur e will show how the current international research project Globalisation\, Photography and Race: the Circulation and Return of Aboriginal Photograph s in Europe\, led by Jane Lydon at UWA\, has been exploring visual histori es held in remote photograph collections such as Oxford\, the ways in whic h it has attempted to reconnect the images to relevant indigenous communit ies today\, and the research and curatorial issues that have emerged.\n\nC ost: free\, but registration required.

As in other colonial societies where indigenous peoples were captured by the camera\, photographs of Maor i were collected and traded\, entering into the private collections\, albu ms and scrapbooks of soldiers\, colonial officials\, scientists and travel lers\, some of which were lodged in the collections of British museums. Ra ther than focus on the history of racial science\, photography and museums in the metropole\, this presentation turns away from the imperial centre to examine the photographic collections of museums in the colonies.\n\nPho tographic scholars in New Zealand have studied Maori as the subject of the camera\, concerned themselves with the trade in such photographs\, looked at the operation of commercial enterprises in the colony\, and sketched t he biographies of pioneer photographers. Institutional photograph collecti ons\, however\, have gained little critical attention. Images of Maori fea ture heavily in these collections\, with ethnographic motives often claime d as the reason for their creation. But does the scholarly emphasis on eth nographic photography in New Zealand marginalise alternative interpretatio ns of indigenous peoples and their relationship with photography? Drawing upon historic photographs\, as well as the work of contemporary Maori arti sts and photographers\, this talk surveys the Maori presence in institutio nal photographic collections in order to fashion a history of colonial pho tography through the everyday encounters of indigenous peoples with the me dium.\n\nCost: free\, but RSVP required.

However\, the world no w faces a global fishing crisis. According to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)\, 70% of all commercially important marine fish stocks are fully fished\, overexploited\, or depleted. The harvesting of marine f ish can have genetic effects that threaten the sustainability and potentia l recovery of this valuable resource. For example\, recent genomics work w ith Atlantic cod has shown that the observed reduction in size and earlier age at sexual maturity is at least partially caused by a genetic response to fishing pressure. To sustain the productivity of harvested marine fish eries populations\, it is crucial to incorporate genetic considerations in to management. Management plans should be developed by applying basic gene tic principles combined with molecular genetic monitoring to minimize harm ful genetic change.
