 maps made across platforms using QGIS\, CartoDB\, and TileMill/Mapbox\, the

 verages the power of the human visual system to ensure data quality\, detec

 </p><p>Hosted by the School of Arts and Sciences at the New York City Colle
 ge of Technology\, CUNY.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><em>Knowledge is indivisible
 . When people grow wise in one direction\, they are sure to make it easier 
 for themselves to grow wise in other directions as well. On the other hand\
 , when they split up knowledge\, concentrate on their own field\, and scorn
  and ignore other fields\, they grow less wise—even in their own field. How
  often people speak of art and science as though they were two entirely dif
 ferent things\, with no interconnection. . . . That is all wrong. . . . If 
 we go through the history of human advance\, we find that there are many pl
 aces where art and science intermingled and where an advance in one was imp
 ossible without an advance in the other.</em></p><p><em>--Isaac Asimov\, A 
 Roving Mind (1983)</em></p><p> </p><p>Over twenty years after C. P. Snow pu
 blished <em>The Two Cultures</em>\, the unparalleled writer\, scientist\, a
 nd educator Isaac Asimov defends the “interconnection” between the sciences
  and the arts. In fact\, he demonstrates the importance of interdisciplinar
 ity—both within STEM fields as well as between STEM and the humanities—thro
 ugh his unsurpassed 500+ books ranging from Biblical scholarship to biochem
 istry\, and science to science fiction. He shows how disciplines inform and
  strengthen one another to create greater knowledge and wisdom\, which in t
 urn leads to greater understanding and new insights. While significant stri
 des have been made in promoting interdisciplinarity\, Asimov’s defense cont
 inues to echo today.</p><p> </p><p>This symposium explores SF in the spirit
  of Asimov’s defense by exploring interdisciplinarity through the lens of s
 cience fiction—a mediating ‘third culture’ (borrowing Snow’s term) that com
 bines the sciences and the humanities to extrapolate new worlds while refle
 cting on our own. Together\, we aim to uncover science fiction’s interdisci
 plinary roots as a literary form\, lens for research\, and pedagogical appr
 oach.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><stro

 scape over coming decades are important guides for community decision-makin

 ort to represent\, and their effects in the present\, this project asks aft
 er the kinds of data sets and attendant assumptions that go into mapping th

 m Berlin to Beijing\, men are joining seduction communities (charm schools)
  to learn skills in dating women. These communities raise questions of inti
 macy\, consent\, and authenticity as problems for men who learn techniques 
 of social persuasion as they seek to attract women and transform their pers
 onal identities. By displacing sexual inhibitions\, these communities focus
  on developing forms of social capital through “weak ties” (Putnam 2000) th
 at allow men to feel a sense of belonging in impersonal urban environments.
  This project uses digital software for text mining and topic modeling of b
 ig data to find out how men are developing an embodied sense of masculine i
 dentity through standardized training in seduction skills. Conducting stati
 stical analyses and comparisons among prescriptive texts (ebooks and seduct
 ion manuals) with descriptive accounts (digitally published diaries) of use
 rs’ experiences and mishaps in striving to embody so-called “alpha masculin
 ity\,” this project aims to discover what kinds of social intimacies follow
  from the labor of dating consultants\, and what happens to those men who b
 uild social communities—both online and in real life—around their practices
 . For which men do seduction skills come to be thought of as integral to th
 eir self-fashioning? How does rationalizing intimacy create new forms of po
 wer and dependency between men? What do seduction communities reveal about 
 the vulnerabilities and frailties of masculinity today? This research is be
 ing developed for public view using Scalar\, a multimedia storytelling plat
 form. Please visit the <a href="http://scalar.usc.edu/works/swinging-in-the

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <p>This year’s CUNY DHI event\, will feature 
 CUNY students\, faculty\, and staff sharing their projects through short 3-

 vember 6th. </strong></p><p>About “Wearable Interfaces and Feminist Sleeper
  Agents”</p><p>In this talk\, I will argue that one must account for the ma
 teriality of the body in the wearable interface. The wearable interface is 
 a process enacted within an assemblage of dress-body-technology\, with the 
 potential to construct a radical cyborg subject. However\, the current most
  ubiquitous form of wearable technology\, the fitness tracker\, fails to fu
 lfill the cyborg’s promise of kinship and affinity. Instead it facilitates 
 the myth of self-reliant neoliberal subjectivity. I examine alternative lan
 dscapes in which wearables might contribute to counterpublic formation thro
 ugh arts and design\, as well as feminist epistemologies and critical makin
 g in the university classroom.</p><p>About Kim Knight</p><p>Kim Knight is a
  digital media scholar whose research encompasses the fields of media\, lit
 erary\, cultural\, and film studies\, exploring the ways digital culture af
 fects negotiations of power and the formation of identity. Relationships be
 tween media\, technologies\, and subjects\, how they interact in “real life
 ” and in the manner in which cultural texts represent them\, are of special
  interest to her.</p><p>Knight teaches courses in digital media theory\, th
 e shift from analog to digital textuality\, viral media\, wearable technolo
 gy\, and race\, class\, gender\, and sexuality in digital environments\, ut
 ilizing both theory and practice methodologies. As such\, her work uniquely
  blends traditional modes of scholarship with the production of theoretical
 ly informed media objects. Knight is the editor-in-chief of the blog\, The 
 Spiral Dance\, and serves as project lead for the Fashioning Circuits Lab\,
  addressing the social and cultural implications of the intersection betwee
 n fashion and technology. She earned her PhD from the University of Califor
 nia Santa Barbara and received her Master’s with distinction from Californi
 a State University Northridge.</p>

 ><p>200 Years of Interdisciplinarity Beginning with Mary Shelley’s <i>Frank
 enstein</i>: The Third Annual City Tech Symposium on Science Fiction</p><p>
 Date and Time: Tuesday\, November 27\, 2018. 9:00am-5:00pm</p><p>Location: 
 New York City College of Technology\, 300 Jay St.\, Namm N119\, Brooklyn\, 
 NY</p><p>“So much has been done\, exclaimed the soul of Frankenstein—more\,
  far more\, will I achieve\; treading in the steps already marked\, I will 
 pioneer a new way\, explore unknown powers\, and unfold to the world the de
 epest mysteries of creation.”</p><p>--Mary Shelley\, <i>Frankenstein</i> (1
 831 edition)</p><p>“Yeah\, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whe
 ther or not they could that they didn’t stop to think if they should.”</p><
 p>--Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum)\, <i>Jurassic Park</i> (1993)</p><p>Ian Mal
 colm’s admonition above is as much a rebuke to the lasting echo of Victor F
 rankenstein’s ambition to accomplish “more\, far more” as it is to park own
 er John Hammond’s explaining\, “Our scientists have done things no one coul
 d ever do before.” Films like <i>Jurassic Park</i> and the kind of literatu
 re that came to be known as Science Fiction (SF) owe a tremendous debt to M
 ary Shelley’s <i>Frankenstein\, or The Modern Prometheus</i> (1818). In add
 ition to being an (if not the) inaugural work of SF\, Mary Shelley builds h
 er cautionary tale around interdisciplinary approaches to science\, and she
  takes this innovation further by applying the humanities to question the n
 ature of being in the world\, the effects of science on society\, and the e
 thical responsibilities of scientists. These are only some of <i>Frankenste
 in</i>’s groundbreaking insights\, which as Brian Aldiss and David Wingrove
  observe in <i>Trillion Year Spree</i> (1986)\, “is marvellously good and i
 nexhaustible in its interest” (20). The many dimensions of interdisciplinar
 ity in <i>Frankenstein</i> and the SF that followed are the focus of the Th
 ird Annual City Tech Science Fiction Symposium.</p><p>In this special anniv
 ersary year of Mary Shelley’s <i>Frankenstein</i>\, join us for a one-day s
 ymposium discussing interdisciplinarity and SF. Continuing conversations be
 gan in the earlier symposia\, we seek to investigate SF’s power as an extra
 polating art form with interdisciplinarity at its core\, including interdis
 ciplinarity within STEM fields and the interdisciplinary synergy of STEM an
 d the humanities.</p><p>We invite presentations of 15-20 minutes on SF and 
 interdisciplinarity. Papers on or connected to <i>Frankenstein</i> are part
 icularly encouraged. Possible presentation topics include\, but are not lim
 ited to:</p><ul><li>Mary Shelley’s <i>Frankenstein</i> and interdisciplinar
 ity (focusing on research questions or teaching approaches)</li><li>Explora
 tions of interdisciplinary ideas\, approaches\, and themes in SF (or what d
 isciplinary boundaries does SF bridge)</li><li>SF as an interdisciplinary t
 eaching tool (or what SF have you used or want to use in your classes to ac
 hieve interdisciplinary outcomes)</li><li>SF’s interdisciplinary imaginativ
 e functions (or Gedankenexperiment\, considering ethical issues\, unintende
 d consequences\, or unexpected breakthroughs)</li><li>Studying SF through a
 n interdisciplinary lens (or combining otherwise discipline-bound approache
 s to uncover new meanings)</li><li>Bridging STEM and the humanities via SF 
 (or SF as an interdisciplinary cultural work that embraces STEAM—Science\, 
 Technology\, Engineering\, the Arts\, and Mathematics)</li><li>SF and ident
 ity (or how interdisciplinarity in SF reveals\, supports\, or explores issu
 es of identity\, culture\, sex\, gender\, and race)</li><li>SF and place (o
 r how SF’s settings are interdisciplinary\, or where it is written fosters 
 its interdisciplinarity)</li><li>Interdisciplinarity and archival work in S

 faculty\, students\, and researchers across disciplines)</li></ul><p>Please

 /p><p>“People who say change is impossible are usually pretty happy with th

 iction\, on a fundamental level\, is always about the here-and-now in which
  it is produced\, because it is from that point the author extrapolates an 
 imagined future or alternate reality. The long and hard fight for civil rig
 hts and the latest unfolding of that struggle in the Black Lives Matter mov
 ement and its alliances calls on us to recognize the powerful possibilities
  within Science Fiction to imagine change\, especially those promoting soci
 al justice and equality by writers of color and Afrofuturists\, as well as 
 reckon with the field’s patterns of racism\, resistance to inclusion\, and 
 lack of representation.</p><p>The Fifth Annual City Tech Science Fiction Sy
 mposium aims to explore the possibilities for change through the myriad con
 nections between Race and Science Fiction with scholarly presentations\, re
 adings by authors\, and engaging discussion. It is our goal to foster conve
 rsations that question\, critique\, or discuss SF as it relates to Race.</p
 ><p>We invite proposals for 10-20 minute scholarly paper presentations\, pa
 nel discussions\, or author readings related to the topic of race and Scien
 ce Fiction. Please send a 250-word abstract with title\, brief professional
  bio\, and contact information to Jason Ellis (jellis@citytech.cuny.edu) by
  September 30\, 2020. Topics with a connection to race and Science Fiction 
 might include but are certainly not limited to:</p><p>- Histories of race a
 nd Science Fiction.<br />- Representation of race in Science Fiction.<br />
 - Representation of writers of color in the Science Fiction field.<br />- I
 nclusion or exclusion of readers and fans due to race.<br />- Issues of ide
