SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:DSI Lecture Series | Data Heresy: A Queer Incomputable Tale with Elisa Giardina Papa and Lisa Nakamura
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Elisa Giardina Papa will outline the theoretical and archival research which informs two of her experimental video installations\, Cleaning Emotional Data and “U Scantu”: A Disorderly Tale. Presenting images she collected while working as a “data cleaner” for various AI systems\, she will address the ways in which machines are disciplined and trained to see. Tracing\, bounding-boxing\, and labeling are key operations used to teach machines to separate Data from data\, signal from noise\, and orderly things from disorderly ones. They are also\, Giardina Papa argues\, the onto-epistemological operations of modern imperial and colonial conquest. To address AI’s normative impulse to divide and classify\, create hierarchies and produce difference\, we need to understand machine vision not only as a “new” tool of extractive capitalism but also\, more importantly\, as one of the many tools of a recursive hegemonic ordering of the world. Ultimately\, this talk will be an invitation to reflect on modes of seeing otherwise which remain radically unruly\, irreducible\, and incomputable.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student CA Seminar - Cohen Structure Theorem
DESCRIPTION:The Cohen Structure Theorem classifies all Noetherian\ncomplete local rings as quotients of power series rings. The statement is most\nconcise in equicharacteristic\, but can be stated in mixed characteristic as well\,\nand in both cases the proof hinges on the existence of a “coefficient ring”. In\nthis talk we introduce coefficient rings\, discuss their existence\, and then\nstate the Cohen Structure theorem in both equi- and mixed characteristics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Webinar: Community Building through Collaborative Science: Evolution of the Mangrove Coast Collaborative
DESCRIPTION:The Mangrove Coast Collaborative (MCC) project (2020 – 2024) began in the aftermath of Hurricanes Irma and Maria (September 2017). Jobos Bay and Rookery Bay NERRs jointly recognized the need to understand and enhance the resilience of their mangrove ecosystems and the surrounding communities in southeastern Puerto Rico and southwest Florida\, respectively. Through a multi-disciplinary approach spanning four research themes – time-series mapping\, ecosystem assessment\, ecosystem services modeling\, and management options – the MCC investigated the loss and recovery of mangroves\, the relationships between drivers of hurricane impact and recovery\, the effects to ecosystem services\, and the ways that managers have made information-based decisions. Using co-production methods\, the project team developed and shared products at a recent regional Mangrove and Management Forum that brought together a newly coalescing community of mangrove scientists and managers in the southeastern US and Caribbean.\nIn this webinar\, the project team will describe how the mangrove science-to-management community developed as an integral part of the MCC and will share an overview of how the ongoing results of the MCC have responded to the needs of this growing community.
