SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CoderSpace with Yuki Shiraito and Jule Krüger
DESCRIPTION:Do you write code for research or class? Do you sometimes get stuck? Are you just starting to learn how to code? Or\, do you seek a social environment shared with fellow programmers? Writing code\, or “programming\,” can be a fun but also challenging and lonely enterprise. Hosted by members of the U-M community\, our CoderSpaces are there for you to meet other coders\, so you can connect and learn from your coder peers. Participation is open to anyone interested in writing code for computational social science\, data science\, statistics\, social science method\, engineering\, etc.\, be they students\, staff\, or faculty. In our CoderSpaces\, we seek to build a casual\, productive and inclusive environment where everyone is welcome regardless of their skill or level of expertise\, to share experiences and knowledge\, assist each other in data-intensive projects\, and enjoy peer-programming opportunities. We hope that participants will actively help each other as able. To participate\, bring a laptop and some coding work\, or just come and hang out\, socialize\, and assist others. Our hosts look forward to hacking with you!\n\nDr. Shiraito is a Research Faculty with the Center for Political Studies and an Assistant Professor in the Political Science Department. He is available to assist with a variety of topics that include Bayesian statistics\, parallel computing in R\, OpenMP and Rcpp\, web scraping using Python\, working with the University’s high performance computing clusters (Great Lakes and Cavium)\, and other computational methods. \n\nDr. Krüger is the ISR Program Manager for Big Data and Data Science\, based within the Center for Political Studies at the Institute for Social Research. She has more than 10 years of experience in processing\, analyzing and interpreting data for social science research\, and automating workflows for scalable\, auditable and reproducible analysis. Dr. Krüger can assist with R\, Python\, Markdown\, Make\, bash\, LaTeX programming\, and version control in git.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Angela Washko: Tactical Embodiment
DESCRIPTION:Angela Washko is an artist\, writer\, and facilitator devoted to creating new forums for discussions about feminism in spaces frequently hostile toward it. Since 2012\, Washko has operated “The Council on Gender Sensitivity and Behavioral Awareness in World of Warcraft\,” an ongoing intervention inside the most popular online role-playing game of all time. Washko’s most recent project\, The Game: The Game\, is a video game in which professional pickup artists attempt to seduce the player using their signature coercive techniques sourced from their instructional books and video materials. Washko is a recent recipient of the Impact Award at IndieCade\, a Franklin Furnace Performance Fund grant\, and a Frank-Ratchye Fund for Art at the Frontier grant. Her practice has been highlighted in The New Yorker\, Frieze Magazine\, Time Magazine\, The Guardian\, ArtForum\, the Los Angeles Times\, Art in America\, The New York Times\, and more. Her projects have been presented internationally at venues including the Museum of the Moving Image in New York\, Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art in Finland\, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles\, the Milan Triennial\, the Shenzhen Independent Animation Biennale in China\, and the Rotterdam International Film Festival in the Netherlands. Washko is an assistant professor of art at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh\, where she is also a member of the MFA core faculty and the area head of electronic time-based art.\n\nSupported by the U-M Institute for the Humanities and the Center for Ethics\, Society\, and Computing.
