SUMMARY:VMCC Talk with Maggie Cao—Sepia: Biotic Media and Ocean Worlds
DESCRIPTION:Sepia is a term used to describe inks of a rich\, brown color\, but few know that this artistic usage is taken from the animal world\, where sepia refers to a genus of cuttlefish—a nod to the long history of extracting melanin fluid from cephalopods for drawing and writing. This talk uses cuttlefish ink as a vehicle for rethinking human-ocean relations in the mid nineteenth century\, tracing flows between Victor Hugo’s maritime drawings made in the Channel Islands to paleontological discoveries and scientific illustrations on nearby coastlines. During the nineteenth century\, the expansion of fisheries and the growth of marine biology fostered public interest in the strangeness of cephalopods\, or “devil fish\,” whose inkiness was associated with artistic creation. Experiments with biotic media\, the talk argues\, were efforts to conceptualize the nonhuman environment of the ocean. \nThis event is presented as part of the Visual & Media Cultures Colloquium (VMCC) Series.\n—\nADMISSION\n– FREE and open to the public\n– Located in Porter College Rm. D245\n—\nPARKING\n– Lot 124 & 125 are the closest parking lots to the event.\n– Parking is by permit or ParkMobile.\n– Refer to TAPS for more parking information.\n—\nThis program is open to all members of the public consistent with state and federal law. \n

SUMMARY:CSE Colloquium - Messages from across the event horizon:  AI Agentic Design for Computer Architecture (and more generalizable learnings)
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Christopher Fletcher\, UC Berkeley \nAbstract: \nIt is difficult to escape the hype of agentic coding.  Is the hype real?  Are we still living in ~Summer 2025 — when AI coding would accomplish little more than upset its human supervisor?  Or has a level shift in technology finally arrived? \nIn this talk I will argue the latter.  I will describe a self-imposed experiment to discover modern AI coding tools’ capabilities (starting mid February 2026).  I will try (my best) to communicate my utter and sheer surprise at where the state of the art actually is.  Then I will do a deep dive and try to relay everything I have learned about this new engineering discipline—based on my attempts to push the technology as hard as I can for the past 1.5 months.  I will conclude by pontificating about the future of computer architecture and academic research more generally. \nBio: \nChristopher Fletcher is an Associate Professor of EECS at UC Berkeley. He is a computer architect whose research spans architecture\, security\, and domain-specific acceleration\, especially at their intersections from cryptography and hardware attacks to algorithm-to-hardware co-design. His work has received 31 paper recognitions and several other honors\, including the NSF CAREER Award\, Intel and Google faculty awards\, UIUC research and promotion awards\, election to DARPA ISAT\, and MIT’s George M. Sprowls Award\, with related work also recognized by Scientific American as one of ten “World Changing Ideas.” \nHosted by: Professor Alvaro Cardenas \nLocation: Engineering 2\, Room E2-180 (Refreshments such as fruit\, pastries\, coffee\, and tea will be provided.) \nZoom Option: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93445911992?pwd=YkJ2TQtF79h0PcNXbEcpZLbpK0coiY.1&jst=3 \n

SUMMARY:AM Seminar:  Flexible Filaments and Swimming Cups: Just Go with the Flow
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Lisa Fauci\, Professor\, Tulane University \nDescription: The motion of waving or rotating filaments in a fluid environment is a common element in many biological and engineered systems. Examples at the microscale include chains of diatoms moving in the ocean\, flagella of individual cells comprising multicellular colonies\, as well as engineered nanorobots designed to deliver drugs to tumors. In this talk we will present mathematical and computational insights into these flows at the microscale. Our modeling approaches will vary from detailed models that capture flagellar material properties and wave geometry to minimal force-dipole models that represent a flagellum by a single point. We will investigate a few intriguing systems\, including the journey of extremely long insect sperm flagella through tortuous female reproductive tracts\, and the hydrodynamic performance of shape-shifting Choanoeca flexa colonies. \nBio: Lisa Fauci received her PhD from the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at New York University\, and directly after that joined the Department of Mathematics at Tulane University in New Orleans\, Louisiana\, USA. Her research focuses on biological fluid dynamics\, with an emphasis on using modeling and simulation to study the basic biophysics of organismal locomotion and reproductive mechanics. Lisa served as president of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) in 2019-2020. She is a fellow of SIAM\, the American Mathematical Society\, the Association for Women in Mathematics\, and the American Physical Society. In 2023\, she was elected to the US National Academy of Sciences. \nHosted by: Applied Mathematics Department

SUMMARY:Digital Accessibility: Canvas LMS
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Rolin Moe – Associate Vice Provost UC Online – UCOP \nAccessibility for the LMS in an Hour is a practical\, design-focused webinar for anyone building or teaching online courses in the UC system. In just sixty minutes\, we’ll cover what it actually means to create an accessible LMS course—without turning you into a legal expert or a developer. You’ll learn how accessibility shows up in everyday decisions like page structure\, documents\, media\, navigation\, and assessments\, and how small\, intentional changes can make a big difference for learners. While accessibility regulations are evolving\, this session focuses on what works now: clear design\, inclusive practices\, and strategies you can apply immediately in the tools you already use. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand the foundations of accessible course structure and why accessibility is both a teaching best practice and a compliance imperative\nBuild accessible LMS pages using proper headings\, descriptive links\, meaningful color\, and logical reading order\nRecognize and resolve common LMS accessibility barriers\, including navigation\, multimedia\, documents\, and interactive elements\nUse LMS accessibility tools strategically to test\, improve\, and maintain inclusive course design over time
