SUMMARY:Manufactured Ecosystems
DESCRIPTION:Manufactured Ecosystems is an immersive exhibition that invites visitors to step into speculative futures where art\, technology\, and nature converge to address the climate crisis. \nThe exhibition will run at the University of Guelph’s Zavitz Gallery from June 23 to Aug. 7. The gallery is open Monday and Tuesday\, 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.\, and Wednesday and Thursday\, 1 to 4 p.m. Admission is free and all are welcome. \nCurated by a global team of artists\, scientists\, engineers\, and writers\, Manufactured Ecosystems features interactive installations\, speculative prototypes\, and imaginative storytelling that forecast how humanity might adapt to ecological collapse using nature-inspired technologies. \nWith contributions from researchers and creators across Canada\, Germany\, the U.S.\, Greece\, Mexico\, and Trinidad & Tobago\, the exhibition reflects the diverse expertise of a team committed to rethinking climate innovation. From speculative design to biomimicry and posthuman ethics\, Manufactured Ecosystems explores the cultural\, scientific\, and aesthetic dimensions of survival in a radically altered world. \nThe exhibition is the public-facing centrepiece of an international research initiative supported by the Government of Canada’s New Frontiers in Research Fund. \nFor more information\, visit manufacturedecosystems.com.

SUMMARY:Gaelic in Scotland\, Gaelic in Canada: Challenges\, Prospects\, Connections
DESCRIPTION:Inaugural Lecture: Scotland-Canada Academic Partnership\, delivered by Professor Robert Dunbar\, University of Edinburgh \nGaelic has been spoken for perhaps 1\,500 years or more in Scotland\, and for over 250 years in what is now Canada. Many Scots are not aware of how widely spoken Gaelic once was in Scotland\, and most Canadians are unaware of the fact that at the time of Confederation\, Gaelic was likely the third most widely-spoken language in Canada. It is now a highly vulnerable minority language in Scotland\, and is in an even more precarious position in Canada. Many factors help to explain the decline\, but neglect by\, and sometimes hostility of governments played an important part in the story. Over the last fifty years in Scotland\, and more recently in Canada—specifically\, in Nova Scotia—things have changed. In this presentation\, in addition to tracing the historical trajectory of the language in both Scotland and Canada\, Professor Robert Dunbar will explore efforts by individual activists\, communities and governments to support the language and its speakers in both countries. Prof. Dunbar will also explore the ongoing links between these two sea-divided language communities\, and what they can learn from each other\, and we can learn from them.
