NeuroDiversity in Tech (NDTech) Summer Internship - Project Showcase The Qualcomm Institute 2022-08-18 | NeuroDiversity in Tech (NDTech) Summer Internship - Project ShowcaseAugust 15, 2022 - Atkinson Hall auditorium UC San Diego - La Jolla, CAAutism spectrum disorders (ASDs) affect 1 out of 59 individuals, cost $137 billion per year in the U.S., and result in a staggering unemployment rate for adults who have the cognitive skills to contribute substantially to the technology workforce.Over the course of 8 weeks during the summer, our interns work in teams as programmers, project managers, artists, and designers with the aid of a peer coach to develop an educational or research-based video game. They develop their game from concept to production by fostering a stakeholder relationship with researchers. At the end of the program, interns present their achievements to the community, including industry partners and advocates, during a showcase event.Our goal is to provide comprehensive workplace training in a supportive environment to enable individuals to thrive in tech occupations.https://pong-center.ucsd.edu/internship/
U.S. India Summit May 31, 2006 - His Excellency APJ Abdul Kalam, President of India The Qualcomm Institute 2022-08-17 | On May 31, 2006, an audience of 150 invited officials from industry, academe, government and non-governmental organizations in India and the United States will meet to explore strategic issues in high-tech research and education as they apply to the world’s two largest democracies. The U.S.-India Summit on Education, Research & Technology is organized by the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2), and will take place on the UCSD campus in La Jolla, California. The Indo-U.S. Science and Technology Forum will play an essential role in promoting and facilitating the collaborative research activities arising from the UC-India agreement.The event is part of a wider initiative undertaken by educational institutions in India and the U.S. since the successful completion of the Next Steps in Strategic Partnership agreement between the two countries in July 2005. That same month, representatives from the University of California (UC) and four other universities -- Cornell, Carnegie Mellon, Case Western, and State University of New York at Buffalo -- met with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in Washington, D.C., and signed a memorandum of understanding to support a satellite-delivered engineering education initiative with the Indian Department of Science and Technology, Indian Space Research Organization, and Amrita University. Corporate support for the effort came from QUALCOMM Incorporated, Microsoft Corporation, and Cadence Design Systems, Incorporated.Continued dialogue resulted in an expansion of the universities involved on both the Indian and American sides, and an increase in the scope of the program to include research. In December 2005, a formal signing ceremony took place in New Delhi to welcome 15 new U.S. members to the Indo-U.S. Inter-University Collaborative Network in Higher Education and Research: Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Purdue, Georgia Tech, University of Massachusetts-Amherst, University of Washington, University of Texas-Austin, University of Wisconsin-Madison, University of North Dakota, University of Maryland, University of Michigan, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, as well as UCLA and UC Santa Cruz. Participants also met with Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, President of India (pictured), in New Delhi.Then in March 2006, UC signed a memorandum of understanding with the Government of India to promote joint research projects that leverage synergies between UC researchers, California technology firms and counterparts in India. The first such projects will get underway soon, and organizers see the U.S.-India Summit on Education, Research & Technology, in part, as a forum for broadening areas of engagement to include new research thrusts and a wider range of participating institutions.The summit will be co-chaired by QUALCOMM’s Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, and Dr. Frieder Seible, Dean of UCSD’s Jacobs School of Engineering. Invited participants will come from Indian government and university labs, non-governmental organizations and technology industries, and from similar institutions in the United States. “Our goal is to explore new avenues for Indo-U.S. collaboration on education and research programs designed to improve science and engineering talent for corporations and universities in both countries,” said summit organizer Ramesh Rao, Director of Calit2’s UCSD Division, who will co-host the meeting with UCSD Chancellor Marye Anne Fox.

Gallery QI - Three Echologies: Scene 2: Planetary Echologies The Qualcomm Institute 2022-06-28 | Gallery QI Performance: Three Echologies: Scene 2: Planetary EchologiesMay 19th, 2022Atkinson Hall, UC San DiegoPerformance with Ricardo Dominguez, micha cárdenas, Amy Sara Carroll, Elle Mehrmand, Doreen Rios, Ricardo Sierra, and Brett Stalbaum"Three Echologies: Scene 2: Planetary Echologies," was a performative piece by Unidad de Conciencias Colectivas Terrestres (Terrestrial Collective Consciousness Unit), Electronic Disturbance Theater 2.0 and *particle group* from QI Principal Investigator Ricardo Dominguez.“Scene 2: Planetary Echologies” explores climate borders, environmental degradation and "ecosophy," a philosophy dedicated to studying links between social relations, human subjectivity and the natural world, through the medium of art. The performers find inspiration in the book “The Three Ecologies,” in which the psychoanalyst, philosopher and playwright Félix Guattari defines ecology at three different scales: planet-wide crises like the pandemic and climate change, intermediate-level relations like micro-politics and micro- and molecular scales within the body.Drawing on border cultural theorist-artist-poet Omar Pimienta’s formulation of the “fronterizomático” Bajalta California aesthetic (an argument he develops by way of Guattari and Gilles Deleuze’s rhizomatic), performers in "Scene 2" stage pop-up border drawing and writing clinics, speculative border and science-art exhibitions in an effort to shrink the monumental distance between La Jolla and practices of borderization. The performance draws attention to six degrees of separation between the immaterial labor of bio/tech and military R&D and the material effects of environmental degradation.Note: This event is a follow-up to the premiere of #RetroColectiva, an ongoing exhibit from Dominguez at the Gallery QI.https://galleryqi.ucsd.edu/three-echologies/

LIVE - Gallery QI - #RETROCOLECTIVA - Opening The Qualcomm Institute 2022-04-29 | #RETROCOLECTIVARICARDO DOMINGUEZCURATED BY DOREEN RIOSGallery QI exhibition openingThursday, April 28, 2022Host: Ricardo DominguezTime: 5:00pm-8:00pmAll machines are time travel machines.The current social condition exists in a liquid state. The markers of stability of past centuries have fallen into the black hole of scepticism, dissolving the situated identication of subject or object. Meaning flows simultaneously through a process of proliferation and condensation, while slipping into the contradictions of apocalypse and utopia.The place of power - and that of resistance - rests in an ambiguous, borderless zone. How could it be otherwise when power ows in the transition between nomadic dynamics and sedentary structures, between hypervelocity and hyperinertia?The last decades have been characterised by the imminent digitalisation (and instrumentalisation) of life. And it is precisely in this virtual architecture that a new geography of power relations has been created: people reduced to data, hyper-surveillance on a global scale, minds fused into a screen reality and authoritarianism emerging from the cracks of fake news. Digital media are simultaneously:social devices + pervasive communication tools + strategic infrastructure + mediators of behavioural conditioning.However, this is also where a space has opened up for resistance guided by transversal thinking that does/thinks/acts with others.I first heard about tactical media around 2015 in Monoskop. And, later on, I remember reading about it while browsing Rhizome's Net Art Anthology and, until then, the idea that it was possible to merge art with activism, the internet, poetry, performance and hacking in one space had never crossed my mind.As I made my way through the subject I discovered the work of Electronic Disturbance Theater and, with it, the work of Ricardo Domínguez.Domínguez's body of work, besides being housed in diverse spaces of reality, is a continuous back and forth between:body / collectivity poetry / codeinside the screen / outside the screen useful art / non-utilitarian arton-street demonstrations / sit-ins protest / performanceThis curatorial exercise explores the in-between spaces of these layers to connect them to their historical and aesthetic context while borrowing Monica Mayer's idea of the retro-collective gesture, connecting the nodes back to a situated practice, always from within radical collectiveness. Here we invoke Critical Art Ensemble, Electronic Disturbance Theater, The Thing, *particle group*, b.a.n.g.lab, Fakeshop, among(many) others to trace various points of departure.By simultaneously inhabiting the internet and the space away from the keyboard, this exhibition is a timeline, a path that forks innumerable times, an expedition to the ruins of various websites, an open letter to the new generations of internet users, and a navigable desktop for this network that is all of us.

LIVE - Gallery QI - ANTIBODIES - Opening The Qualcomm Institute 2022-02-25 | Gallery QI - ANTIBODIESMichael Trigilio, Bobby McElver, Trish Stone, and Shahrokh YadegariThursday, February 24, 2022Gallery QI, Qualcomm InstituteUC San Diegohttps://galleryqi.ucsd.edu The antibody resists the pathogen, the virus, the infection. What we describe as viral, as pathological, can include living organisms, language, dogma, and minds. What defines a body? The body of the planet, the body of the nation-state, the body-politic, the human body, the viral body, the body of evidence, the data body, the wrong body, the perfect body. The ANTIBODIES exhibit brings together explorations in sound, image, and science that obliquely orbit questions of the body, the virus, and the resistance.Trigilio and McElver, collaborating for the first time, have designed a video and sound installation for the QI Gallery. The installation consists of a large video projection by Trigilio, an 8-minute single-channel video, Verse One for the Ten Grounded Stacks, from his recent body of work (Unmake the Uncosmos, Ecstatic). Working with sound-design and original music from Trigilio, McElver is mixing and spatializing the sound in the gallery, utilizing his own 64-channel wave field synthesis technology.Stone and QI Learning Academy 2019 students Sijie Liu, Yixing Wang, Hainan Xion created Anti-Plague, a game made in Unity, as a critical response to the popular game Plague, the goal of which was to spread a virus worldwide. The project is based on scientific data and simulates the effectiveness of social distancing, stay at home orders, and mask wearing at varying populations and timeframes. The game will be displayed in the front hallway of QI as well as playable online: pongcenter.itch.io/anti-plagueAs part of the gallery event on February 24, Yadegari presents his musical performance Music for Courtyard, an original work designed for the courtyard in front of Atkinson Hall.
