Greetings, Art & Science Lovers!

What a great session with Lisa Freinkel yesterday. I think each of you took away something of value and interest to your own awareness of self, understanding of the importance of mindfulness, tools for working toward mindfulness, or a way in which to develop your project or understand research bias. I look forward to hearing what you took away as you write Journal 7 (your response to Lisa’s visit). Learn more about upcoming events on the UO campus related to mindfulness at https://blogs.uoregon.edu/aad199artmeetsscience/resources/guest-speaker-resources/professor-lisa-freinkel/

A reminder that this coming Tuesday, January 27, we will hear from Richard Taylor, Physics professor, and tour the CAMCOR labs. Let’s meet in the courtyard between Huestis and Deschutes halls and across from Carson (see map.uoregon.edu). This should be a great session to hear more about fractals, interconnections between the arts and sciences, and Jackson Pollock’s work. To prepare for this session, please read and respond (Journal 8) to the article by deCosta at http://scalar.usc.edu/anvc/feminist-anti-mooc/da-costa-reaching-the-limit

I have attempted to send you a link to a Google Calendar for our course that will outline upcoming due dates/course schedule and how it looks more visually than the textual example on the course site provides. It currently lists activities through next week only. If this the calendar is not working/functioning properly, please let us know.

Finally, we want to let you know about an upcoming event that may be of interest to some of you (or all of you since it offers FREE lunch!). A flyer is attached here (Your Path to an Arts Job flyer) and the basic information is here:

Your Path to an Arts Job
Friday, January 30, 11:30 – 1:00 p.m.
Lawrence Hall 249

Best,
Julie & Robert
