SUMMARY:Mapping Oral History: How to Create a Free Online Story Atlas with Atlascine
DESCRIPTION:DESCRIPTION\nAtlascine is a free\, online and open-source software developed to map collections of stories. Through the full interaction between media and maps\, Atlascine offers new ways of navigating within and between audiovisual stories. Here\, the map is envisioned not only as a way to reveal places described in stories\, but also to expand the possibilities of listening\, visualizing and making connections between stories. During this workshop participants will learn how to create a free online atlas of stories with Atlascine. More specifically\, they will learn how to connect audiovisual files with transcripts; how to tag these transcripts to generate maps and how to use these maps to visualize\, connect and listen to stories. This workshop will present a live demonstration of the different steps required to set up an online atlas of stories with Atlascine. No particular material is required from the participants: the workshop is geared towards participants who might be interested in developing their own atlas based on stories/interviews they already have or that they plan to collect. \nMore details about the Atlascine project \nCOHDS/ALLAB are grateful to be able to offer our programming on unceded Kanien’kehá:ka territory\, in Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS\nIn English \nWith Sébastien Caquard\, Emory Shaw and Sepideh Shahamati \nOnline \nREGISTRATION\nYou can register via Zoom by clicking here. \nMORE INFORMATION\nIf you have any questions\, contact us at cohds.chorn@concordia.ca.

SUMMARY:Ethical Loneliness: restorative listening after disaster and oppression  (ALLab)
DESCRIPTION:DESCRIPTION\nPeople who listen to stories about trauma and recovery may hear things they never wanted to hear. They may also simply fail to hear stories well due to various presuppositions about how the world works\, what counts as a stable narrative\, or what it is they think they’re listening for. Recovery from violence and oppression involves work on the part of those who have been harmed\, of course. But it also requires that those who have not been harmed learn how to hear stories about trauma and even to listen for their own failures of hearing. This talk will take a philosophical look at the difficulties that reside on all sides of this complicated conversation\, focusing equally on testimony from traumatized survivors of a wide array of harms and on the reasons why even those who have been trained to listen sometimes fail to hear well.   \nJill Stauffer is Associate Professor and Director of Peace\, Justice\, and Human Rights\, Haverford College (USA). She is the author of Ethics Loneliness: The Injustice of Not Being Heard. \nCOHDS/ALLAB are grateful to be able to offer our programming on unceded Kanien’kehá:ka territory\, in Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS\nIn English \nWith Jill Stauffer \nOnline \nREGISTRATION\nYou can register via Zoom by clicking here. \nMORE INFORMATION\nIf you have any questions\, contact us at acts.listeninglab@concordia.ca.

SUMMARY:Conversation: Ethics as a quest
DESCRIPTION:This is an open and non-formal conversation between Dr. Catherine Richardson and Zeina Ismail-Allouche that unsettles the concept of shared authority as a guaranteed pathway towards an ethical approach. The session will take the form of a sharing circle that invites participants to unpack their understanding of ethics while addressing representation and contextualization as proposed main constructs to ethics. We will address Indigenous Methodologies as a relational egalitarian approach that extends the concept of shared authority to include the world views\, the choice of the research question\, and the positionality of the researcher vis-vis the research question. \nREGISTRATION \n\nYou can register via Zoom by clicking here

SUMMARY:Indigenous Healing Knowledges Online Gathering
DESCRIPTION:9:00-12:00: Learning from Indigenous Healers \n13:00-16:00: Youth exploration of Indigenous Healing Knowledges \nCome join us for an online gathering\, as we get to hear from various Elders\, Knowledge Keepers and youth on their experiences and approaches to healing. \nToday\, more than ever\, Indigenous peoples need knowledge of ways to enhance their immune systems\, avoid conditions such as diabetes and high stress\, in order to prevent being vulnerable to conditions such as COVID19. \nIn this context\, this research aims to enhance the understanding of Indigenous worldview and epistemology in relation to healing and well-being\, by presenting the teachings of various healing practitioners including those of the Cree\, Métis\, and Haudenosaunee. These Indigenous Healers referred to as speakers engage in healing practices in the context of social work\, counselling\, talk therapy\, energy work\, and those who heal through modalities of music\, rhythm\, sound\, and song. They will offer teachings in their epistemological and cosmological approaches to their work and will inform an audience in areas of First Peoples Studies\, Counselling\, Social Work\, Health Professionals\, Sociological and Psychological scholars\, and community members. \nREGISTRATION \nIn order to accommodate social distancing\, all of COHDS/ALLab events will be held online.

SUMMARY:Cartographier l'histoire orale de Kigali à Montréal / festival d’histoire de Montréal
DESCRIPTION:Avec Sébastien Caquard & Lisa Ndejuru \nCentre d’Histoire Orale et de Récits Numérisés // Université Concordia \nLe projet de cartographie des récits de vie d’exilés Rwandais mené à l’université Concordia – en collaboration avec l’université Carleton et l’association Page-Rwanda – combine l’histoire orale et la cartographie numérique pour nous emmener de Kigali à Montréal en passant par Bujumbura\, Bukavu\, Louvain ou Ottawa. Plus qu’un voyage géographique\, ces cartes originales et interactives nous invitent à écouter ces récits riches et inspirants dans lesquels se mêlent des souvenirs d’enfance\, de famille\, d’amitié\, d’exile et de génocide. Ces cartes nous laissent entrevoir la manière dont ces exilés parlent des lieux qu’ils ont quittés et le regard qu’ils portent sur ceux où ils vivent désormais. \nRegister in advance for this meeting: https://concordia-ca.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcrf-2rqzssE9X9Jjkh9hQRFbME7l5icloj

SUMMARY:Storytelling Soundwalks and AR Audio (ALLab)
DESCRIPTION:The workshop will cover the use of Augmented Reality technology\, focusing on sound and geotrack mediums to enhance oral storytelling as an interactive tool. The AR workshop will make use of the online app Echoes\, which is a friendly user software to produce audio walks in a site-specific context \nAmanda Gutiérrez (b. 1978\, Mexico City) explores the experience of home\, belonging\, and cultural identity by bringing into focus details of everyday practices whose ordinary status makes it particularly hard for us to notice their key role in defining who we are. Trained and graduated initially as a stage designer from The National School of Theater\, Gutiérrez uses a range of media such as sound art and performance art to investigate how these conditions of everyday life set the stage for our experiences and in doing so shape our individual and collective identities. Gutiérrez has held numerous art residencies at FACT\, Liverpool in the UK\, ZKM in Germany\, TAV in Taiwan\, Bolit Art Center in Spain\, and her work has been exhibited internationally in venues such as The Liverpool Biennale in 2012\, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council. A recipient of a grant from the National System of Art Creators\, in Mexico\, Gutiérrez recently was the recipient of residencies at the New York Camera Club\, Harvestworks\, and MISE-EN_PLACE Bushwick. \nFree\, online \nIn order to accommodate social distancing\, all of COHDS/ALLab events will be held online. \nRegister in advance for this meeting \nPlease note that this event will be recorded.

SUMMARY:Transformative Memory and Listening (ALLab)
DESCRIPTION:Transformative Memory and Listening \nAlejandra Gaviria-Serna\, Luis C. Sotelo Castro and Pilar Riaño-Alcalá dialogue about memory\, listening and transformation in contexts of political violence and atrocity. Drawing on their current projects and work in Colombia and Canada\, they will discuss: \n1. In what ways can memory and listening become transformative (or not) of the legacies of violence and violent conflicts? \n2. What are the context(s) in which questions on memory\, listening and transformation should be considered? \n3. Under what conditions might memory and listening processes become transformative? \nBios \nAlejandra Gaviria-Serna works at the intersections of activism\, art\, scholarship\, and policy\, related to society’s rights to truth and memory and the Colombian conflict. Since 2006 she is a founder and member of the Colombian Movement H.I.J.O.S (Daughters and Sons for Identity and Justice against Forgetting and Silence) and MOVICE (Movement of Victims of State Crimes\, a movement that brings together 200 organizations in Colombia working for the rights of victims).

His creative work has been commissioned by civil society and academic organizations such as the International Association for the Study of Forced Migration. In 2018 he founded at Concordia the Acts of Listening Lab\, a hub for research-creation on the transformative power of listening to painful narratives\, with particular reference to testimonies by exiles from sites of conflict. His latest publications explore listening in the context of post-conflict performances of memory. For instance\, see his article ‘Not being able to speak is torture: performing listening to painful narratives’. International Journal of Transitional Justice\, Special Issue Creative Approaches to Transitional Justice: Contributions of Arts and Culture. (March\, 2020) \nPilar Riaño-Alcalá is a professor at the Social Justice Institute and co-lead of the Memory and Justice Research Stream and the Transformative Memory Network. Her research interests are on historical memory and the lived experience of violence in the lives and afterlives of mass violence\, the ethnography of living traces of memory and social repair; oralities and sound memory\, and social practice art. Pilar also is interested in exploring the politics of knowledge and epistemic justice through the use of emplaced and creative research methodologies that draw on other knowledges and centrally locate action and change in knowledge production.

SUMMARY:Listening
DESCRIPTION:In this conversation\, two mapmakers and friends will reflect on how stories figure in their work\, in particular\, stories that are difficult to tell and difficult to hear. \nAnne Kelly Knowles is an historical geographer long engaged in finding methods to answer historical questions and visualize past geographies. She co-founded the Holocaust Geographies Collaborative in 2007\, and currently teaches at the University of Maine. \nMargaret Wickens Pearce is a Citizen Potawatomi Nation tribal member.  She grew up on Seneca territory at Ga’shgöhsagöh (Rochester\, NY) and now lives on Penobscot territory at Catawamkeag (Rockland\, ME).

These conversations will involve students\, researchers\, mapmakers\, artists\, and activists working at the intersection between maps and stories\, and will aim to address two broad questions: What are the most pressing methodological\, theoretical\, technological\, ethical and design challenges raised by the relationship between maps and stories? What might be the impacts of these relationships within the social\, cultural and political spheres? This series of conversations will take place online and will be freely accessible. \nFree\, Registration required \nIn order to accommodate social distancing\, all of COHDS/ALLab events will be held online. \nFind the official poster here.
