SUMMARY:ReView
DESCRIPTION:Mary Porter Sesnon Art Gallery\nAugust 13-September 19\, 2026 \nOpening celebration and Artist Talk\nSaturday\, August 15\, 2-4:30 p.m\nLight refreshments will be served. \nSummer Gallery Hours: Thursday-Saturday\, 1-5pm \nReView: UC Santa Cruz Arts Alumni Exhibition features Arts Division alumni from the Monterey and San Francisco Bay Areas. Curated by Valéria Miranda\, the Sesnon’s Director\, ReView includes a wide variety of media and techniques highlighting the diversity of contemporary practice of alumni who graduated from 1972 to 2025. The exhibition title alludes to the portfolio critique process and suggests ideas of reflection and reevaluation—whether revisiting past work\, rethinking materials\, or tracing how a practice evolves over time. \nThis exhibition celebrates the creative path of artists who began their journeys at UC Santa Cruz. United by shared roots yet defined by distinct paths\, the participating alumni reflect the lasting influence of the Arts Division programs. Their works speak to the spirit of inquiry\, experimentation\, and perseverance that has long shaped the university’s artistic community. \nReView presents an opportunity for the campus and larger community to see the professional practice of these artists who continue to build on the creative foundation that they received at UCSC and to inspire our current students\, offering visualization of their own future artistic journeys after graduation. \nReView offers a unique opportunity for returning alumni to celebrate their creative expressions while reconnecting with classmates and the university community. \nAdmission is free and open to the public.  \nMore Information

SUMMARY:Sowing Sovereignty: Growing Seeds and Cultivating Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Join the Ecological Farming Association (EcoFarm) at the Hay Barn and UCSC Farm for a focused conversation on organic seeds — from seed economics and profitability to hands-on care and stewardship practices. We’ll explore varietal selection\, storage\, germination\, and seed saving\, along with a practical discussion on the role and legitimacy of community seed libraries in strengthening regional seed security. Perfect for farmers\, gardeners\, and anyone interested in resilient\, locally adapted seed systems. Come walk the fields and dig into the future of organic seed. \nREGISTER \nScholarships available. Apply by September 4 at midnight: https://lnkd.in/gSedVe3n

SUMMARY:Tornoe\, S. (ECE) - Improving the UV optical response and suppressing surface plasmon resonance in aluminum and silver base telescope mirrors
DESCRIPTION:Aluminum and silver are excellent metal-bases for astronomical telescopes designed for broadband spectral measurements. In particular silver excels in the violet to infrared spectral range range with over 95% reflectance. In turn aluminum excels deep ultra-violet to infrared with over 90% reflectance across the bulk of its spectral range. In astronomical telescope optics\, each percent reflectance is extremely valuable\, meaning each mirror type has place. However\, both metal-bases suffer from unwanted oxidation necessitating protective coatings. Unfortunately\, even a few nanometers of traditional coatings like AlOx\, can completely eliminate the far and deep UV response. These dielectric protective coatings can also induce surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in the mirrors. SPR occurs when light propagates in a dielectric protective coating along a metal-dielectric interface exciting electrons in the metal as it propagates. The plasmonic response in the metal-base alters how light reflects from the mirror creating an oscillation in the UV spectral range. This research will focus on improving the UV response and diminishing the detrimental effects of SPR for two cases: aluminum mirrors and silver mirrors. \nEvent Host: Soren Tornoe\, Ph.D. Student\, Electrical & Computer Engineering  \nAdvisor: Nobuhiko Kobayashi \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93650451146?pwd=IFEbCOKZQAyDdoYMO5b19JqGZbX07m.1 \nPasscode: 657292
