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:VMCC Series: Yiman Wang
DESCRIPTION:In a lecture delivered by UC Santa Cruz Professor Yiman Wang\, this talk delves into Mao-era moving image culture that featured experimentation with public health\, horticulture\, and animal husbandry to unpack what cinematic experiments were developed\, how scientific experiments were conducted\, and in what ways they were intended to intertwine with the nation-wide experiment with rebuilding the new socialist human’s psyche and a new socio-political world. The talk also explores why such conjoined experiments often fell apart\, what one might gain by recentering the unruly human and more-than-human “raw material” that were experimented on\, and ultimately\, how the environmental turn in media studies could benefit from a study of socialist trifold cinematic-scientific-socio-political experimentations.\n—\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nYiman Wang (Ph.D.\, Graduate Program in Literature\, Duke University) is Professor and Chair of Film & Digital Media at University of California\, Santa Cruz. She is author of Remaking Chinese Cinema: Through the Prism of Shanghai\, Hong Kong and Hollywood (University of Hawaii Press 2013)\, and To Be an Actress: Labor and Performance in Anna May Wong’s Cross-Media World (University of California Press 2024). She has published numerous articles in journals and edited volumes on topics of socialist environmental media\, feminist media histories\, ethnic border-crossing stardom\, eco-cinema\, Chinese cinema\, independent documentary\, film remakes and adaptations. She is editor of a special issue of Feminist Media Histories on Asian Feminist Media (2019)\, co-editor of an InFocus Dossier on Queering Asian Media in Journal of Cinema and Media Studies (2023)\, co-editor of Chinese Animation: Multiplicities in Motion (2025)\, associate editor of Journal of Chinese Cinemas\, and co-editor of the Global East Asian Screen Cultures book series published by Bloomsbury.\n—\nADMISSION\n– FREE and open to the public\n– Located in Porter College Rm.

SUMMARY:Kraw Lecture: Learning Earth's Biodiversity via Space and eDNA
DESCRIPTION:The California DNA Program (CALeDNA)\, launched from the University of California in 2017\, has been tackling the massive disconnection in scales of measuring nature from satellite-based sensing down to DNA in a gram of soil or water. Through dozens of collaborative projects around the world\, CALeDNA lab scientists have harmonized different ways of observing biodiversity from microbes to plants and mammals. UC Santa Cruz’s Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, where CALeDNA is headquartered\, now houses over 50\,000 CALeDNA environmental sample collections\, a thriving startup partnership\, and an eDNA service and R&D lab that serves most national and CA state agencies that monitor nature. In this presentation\, Rachel Meyer will demonstrate the challenges of connecting the microscopic to regional scales across all kingdoms of life for two central purposes: monitoring sensitive habitat change and estimating habitat ‘health’.\n \n\n\nIn-Person Reception: 5:30 p.m.\nLecture: 6–7 p.m.\n\nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Johnstone\, J. (AM) - The Effects of Asymmetry on Overshooting and Magnetic Pumping from Compressible Convection Zones
DESCRIPTION:We present a comprehensive numerical investigation examining how vertical asymmetry in compressible convection affects overshooting and the transport of large-scale magnetic fields from convective to stably stratified regions. Using three-dimensional direct numerical simulations\, we systematically vary the superadiabaticity and stratification of a convective layer to control the vertical asymmetry of the flow and analyze its influence on overshooting depth and magnetic pumping efficiency. We extend previous work by Tobias et al. (2001) and draw guidance from the asymmetry regimes identified by John & Schumacher (2023)\, investigating whether similar asymmetric convecting regimes emerge in our overshooting model that incorporates a stably stratified region below. We find that vertical asymmetry increases significantly with stratification at a moderate\, fixed Rayleigh number\, while superadiabaticity contributes primarily through enhanced downflow velocities\, with both combined leading to increasing overshooting depths reaching approximately 0.46 − 0.7 pressure scale heights. Magnetic pumping efficiency initially increases with stratification but unexpectedly decreases at higher stratification\, despite increasing overshooting depths. We find that this behavior arises from the increasing thermal and magnetic diffusivities that result from increasing stratification at fixed Ra. When instead either holding these diffusivities constant or increasing Ra sufficiently\, we find that then both overshooting and magnetic pumping depths both decrease with increasing stratification. This behavior is explained by a change of dynamical state from one of laminar downflows to one of turbulent downflowing plumes leading to a high degree of turbulent mixing and entrainment. We thus find two distinct regimes that might be described as a microscopically diffusive regime and a turbulently diffusive one. These results suggest that\, in the highly turbulent regime expected in the Sun\, magnetic pumping efficiency may decrease with increasing stratification due to enhanced turbulent entrainment\, with important implications for solar dynamo theory and the transport of large-scale magnetic fields in the solar interior. \n  \nEvent Host: Jason Johnstone\, Ph.D. Student\, Applied Mathematics \nAdvisor: Nic Brummell \nZoom- https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/5428987373?pwd=JSmNz3ZZby5ZnVBYbSoakjjQb2qQj6.1&omn=98571815542 \nPasscode- 778899

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:Yang\, J. (CSE) - Towards Controllable and Compositional Generative Vision
DESCRIPTION:Diffusion-based text-to-image models can generate impressive images\, but they largely treat an image as a single\, flat output\, which makes precise editing of individual elements difficult. This proposal studies layered generative representations that align with professional editing workflows\, enabling users to manipulate foreground objects while preserving the rest of the scene. A central focus is visual effects such as shadows and reflections\, which are essential for realistic composition yet are often missing or inconsistent in current generative pipelines. This proposal outlines a research program toward controllable\, compositional image generation that supports practical\, edit-ready content creation. \nEvent Host: Jinrui Yang\, Ph.D. Student\, Computer Science and Engineering \nAdvisor: Yuyin Zhou \nZoom- https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/91510964517?pwd=NG5Urv2li9HxlcUKrybg6Z5ZtYj9e6.1 \nPasscode- 544143
