SUMMARY:Laffan\, N. (CM) - Digital Memory Tools and Their Impact On Collective Remembering
DESCRIPTION:Today\, both individual and collective memories are increasingly mediated by digital platforms. Both are fundamentally enmeshed in platform ecosystems that orient around commercial imperatives very much at odds with community cohesion. The digital archive where our mediated memories are stored does not merely store information but actively inscribes it\, often privileging narratives aligned with commercial incentives rather than community cohesion. This invisibility is a problem: as we offload our personal memories onto commercial tools\, we unwittingly subject our shared past to algorithmic curation and “algo-time\,” which raises serious questions about how the use of our personal devices is quietly restructuring the way societies remember. \nDuring this presentation\, I will propose a three-pronged method of investigating and engaging in this conceptual space. All three prongs revolve around a shared question : how do the technologies that extend our personal memories affect what we remember collectively? The research first establishes a conceptual ecology around the question by tracing the lifecycle of a single image from individual capture to platform archive. Second\, it employs Research through Design (RtD) and speculative design methods to prototype tools explicitly built for collective remembrance rather than commercial extraction. Finally\, it utilizes artistic practice to “diffract” these concepts\, creating interactive installations that expose the distortions and contradictions inherent in digital memory. Together\, these projects aim to make visible the hidden dynamics that shape the memories we construct together. \nHost: Nate Laffan\, Ph.D. Student\, Computational Media  \nAdvisor: Nathan Altice  \nZoom- https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93762016105?pwd=RBXDHnuleAECZdVghEaAz9L4KK4p1d.1 \nPasscode- 668969

SUMMARY:Science in the Neighborhood: The End Game: Discovering how telomeres cause disease
DESCRIPTION:Science In the Neighborhood\nA public lecture series hosted quarterly by the UC Santa Cruz Science Division \nThe End Game: Discovering how telomeres cause disease\nPresentation by Carol Greider\, Professor\, UC Santa Cruz\nQ&A with Susan Carpenter\, Professor\, UC Santa Cruz \nTelomeres\, the ends of chromosomes\, play a pivotal role in human disease. Short telomeres cause age-related degenerative disease\, while long telomeres predispose people to cancer. That’s why understanding how telomere length is regulated is so critical. Dr. Greider’s research is uncovering the mechanism of telomere length regulation so that we can devise approaches for disease treatment. By using new DNA-sequencing technology in a novel way\, her team made a surprising discovery: Each chromosome end has a unique telomere-length distribution that is different from other chromosome ends. Dr. Greider will explain how this finding will help us better understand the role of telomeres in disease. \nThe event is in-person only. Register here. \nDecember 11\, 2025 | 6:00–7:30 p.m.\nCoastal Biology Building. Rm. 110\nUC Santa Cruz Coastal Campus\n130 McAllister Way\nSanta Cruz\, CA 95060 \nThe screenshot below shows where to find the entrance of the Coastal Biology Building.

SUMMARY:First Saturday Tour at the Arboretum
DESCRIPTION:First Saturday Tours are a wonderful way to introduce yourself to the Arboretum or to deepen your knowledge of the Arboretum’s plant collections. Each tour is a little different depending on the time of year\, the interests of the tour guide\, and the people who join in. For example\, you might learn about the birds and mammals that make this land their home or about the amazing physical adaptations that plants have evolved to better deal with our extreme weather and climate conditions. Tours are free with paid admission.

SUMMARY:Ecology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World
DESCRIPTION:Norris Center Art + Science Graduate Fellowship Exhibition \nEcology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World brings together the work of ten graduate students supported by the Kenneth S. Norris Center for Natural History Art + Science Fellowship\, a program dedicated to creative research connecting art with the natural world. Across media – including sound\, moving image\, music\, performance\, installation\, comics\, social practice\, photography\, and storytelling – the artists in Ecology of Presence emphasize relationality and careful attention to place as essential to building relationships with environs. As accelerating environmental change and technological dependency threaten ways of belonging\, the works in this exhibition maintain a steadfast commitment to interdisciplinary approaches that propose kinship with the natural world. By coming together\, Art + Science Fellows artworks and social practices suggest ways of imagining human life in relation to the more-than-human world.

SUMMARY:CM Seminar - "How Technology-Mediated Food Interactions Support Family Connection and Routine Reconstruction"
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Aswati Panicker \nDescription: “In this talk\, I draw on work in human-food interaction (HFI) to examine how food can serve as a rich interaction medium for connection and routine reconstruction in long-distance families. I highlight insights from three of my studies that explore this question across different technological forms. First\, I discuss how families navigate shifting meanings of “healthy eating” during life transitions\, and the tensions that arise when disclosing new goals and priorities in health-sharing or tracking tools. Second\, I show how family members expressed hesitations\, value conflicts\, and visions for cultural or playful moments when imagining embodied technology such as a social robot within their domestic spaces. Third\, through a mobile app probe for teaching food knowledge and recipes\, I uncover the subtleties of how family members seek to initiate\, learn\, guide\, or be guided through everyday food practices. Throughout\, I outline design implications and close by reflecting on how technology-mediated food interactions might extend to other contexts and routines beyond family life.” \nBio: Aswati Panicker is a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California\, Santa Cruz\, working with Prof. Christina Chung. Her research is at the intersection of HCI and CSCW\, focusing on how technologies are designed and used in social and health-related contexts. She takes a human-centered\, participatory approach and draws on theories from family studies and sociology in her work. She earned her PhD in Informatics from Indiana University Bloomington in July 2025.

SUMMARY:AM Seminar with Dr. Truong Vu
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Truong Vu\, IPAM and MSU \nDescription: We present a framework for the gradient flow of sharp-interface surface energies that couple to embedded curvature active agents. We use a penalty method to develop families of locally incompressible gradient flows that couple interface stretching or compression to local flux of interfacial mass. We establish the convergence of the penalty method to an incompressible flow both formally for a broad family of surface energies and rigorously for a more narrow class of surface energies. \nBio: Dr. Vu received a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from the Department of Mathematics\, Statistics\, and Computer Science at University of Illinois at Chicago. Dr. Vu is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (UCLA) and a visiting faculty in the Department of Mathematics at Michigan State University. \nHosted by: Applied Mathematics
