ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

As part of the celebrations of Africa Day, to be held on 25 May, Fashion Designer Patrícia Vasco (Maputo, Mozambique) will hold a workshop where she will demonstrate innovative techniques to create and upcycle garments with traditional African fabrics. Amorambique, her brand, was founded in 2013, meaning “love Mozambique”.

Initially only a collection to be presented at the Mozambique Fashion Week, it evolved into a bigger project. Emphasising the concept of social responsibility, Amorambique uses traditional African fabrics, like the “capulana”, to give new life to garments.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER

Born in Maputo, Mozambique, Patrícia’s passion for fashion started early in life as her mother, in addition to working at the Central Bank, did sewing work to make ends meet.

As her mother was always her biggest reference, Patrícia graduated in Banking Management and concluded a Master’s degree in Business Management. She worked in banking for five years and, in her last year, had the opportunity of working with credit analysis for SMEs, where she acquired enough experience to succeed in her latest role as business owner.

Because of her background in dance, in which she is also trained, she closely dealt with designers at the Mozambique Fashion Week, where the idea of creating a collection for children to be presented at the Mozambique Fashion Week Kids originated, with the intention of donating the garments after the show.

Students with Special Education Needs(SEN) refer to those who need special educational support due to learning or adjustment difficulties, including specific learning difficulties, speech and language impairment, intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. It is important to support their individual differences in order to create an inclusive society. Mr. Fritz Pang, an experienced registered Educational Psychologist, has been working in this field for over 35 years. In 2005, he successfully developedthe“9 Strategies of Holistic Development 9S®”, an integrateddiagnosis andtreatment for those in need. In 2009, the “9S®” was awarded the first prize for outstanding thesis by the 2^ndChinese Maternal and Child Health Conference. Since then, “9S®” has been widely used in the educational and social welfare field in Hong Kong.In 2016, Mr. Pang established New Horizons Life Planningunder the support of the Social Innovation and Entrepreneurship Development Fund (SIE Fund) provided by the HKSAR Government. With the application of “9S®” and multiple teaching strategies, the presentation willanalyze measureswhichcan be used to cater for the needs of SEN students while exploring their potential future pathways.

特殊教育需要學生包括：特殊學習障礙、言語障礙、智力障礙及自閉症譜系障礙。要創造一個共融社會，認識和支援他們的個別差異尤其重要。資深註冊教育心理學家彭智華先生從事特殊教育工作逾35年，對有特殊教育需要的學生及其老師、家長的需要有深入了解。彭先生於2005年研發《全腦開發九攻略®》簡稱9S，揉合多種治療方法，有效制定並提供全方位及多元化的治療計劃。2009年，《全腦開發九攻略®》論文獲第二屆中華婦幼健康大會評為優秀論文一等獎。9S策略現時廣為香港教育界及社會福利界所採用，幫助有特殊教育需要的學生得到最適切的支援。2016年，彭先生在香港政府社會創新及創業發展基金(社創基金)的支持下創立新領域生涯規劃，積極協助特殊需要學童及人士開展生涯規劃。講座將會透過9S以及加減乘除的教學策略，全面解讀特殊需要學生的學習需要以及未來路向，從而尋找及探索能更有效地支援他們的各種方法。   About the Speaker 關於講者

The Faculty of Creative Industries has collaborated with the Macao Museum of Art and the British Museum for the exhibition “Italian Renaissance Drawings from the British Museum” that officially opened on Thursday, the 11th of April, and will run until the 30th of June.

The University of Saint Joseph was thrilled with this opportunity to be part of this innovative and ambitious project, as well as, honoured to work “alongside” artists such as Leonardo Da Vinci, Raffaello or Michelangelo to list just a few of them! Our collaboration work is not comparable with the work of The Italian Masters, and we merely hope to open new perspectives on art in museums and offer a different experience to its visitors.

An experience that disrupts the traditional way of visiting a museum. An experience that immerses and permits the visitor a tangible and accessible involvement with part of the exhibition.

Museums around the world have always been open to new technological experimentations and avid of new ways to enrich and showcase their artworks and collections to a new public. It is often an opportunity to look with a different eye, to discover new artistic connections and to experience an artwork like never before.

We see our work presented as the first step in a new type of experimentation, that will teach us and lead us further to new possibles, particularly in the area of universal access and accessibility. Indeed, like any other social organisation, museums have a significant challenge to transform themselves to be more inclusive, and we hope to participate in discussion with this experiment and research.

From the very beginning, we agreed on a few rules that we have been trying to respect along with our work:

1. we selected 16 drawings from the British Museum exhibition and we worked on representing them as a physical and tangible object;
2. we wanted, as much as possible, visitors to be able to touch the exhibits, as a symbol, to make the exhibits accessible and;
3. allow universal accessibility, mainly by trying to give a new experience of the exhibition to visually impaired visitors;
4. all exhibits would be produced in Macao with technologies that are currently available in our Digital Fabrication Laboratory of our Faculty of Creative Industries and the support of some of our students.

To give a few numbers to represent the work, we spend more than 2,000 hours of machine time and more than 600 working hours.

For all exhibits, we have been using two essential techniques, namely 3D Printing and Laser cutting and we follow a similar workflow for each piece:

1. cleaning the original image of the drawing (removing the background, outlining, enhancing, etc...);
2. transforming the drawing into a new image or a 3D model that can be processed by our machines;
3. multiple tests usually take place before producing the final exhibits with the machine;
4. post-processing the exhibits: we mainly use standard woodworking post-processing such as sanding, priming, painting and varnishing.

The University of Saint Joseph (USJ) held its annual "USJ Career Day 2019" on April 11th 2019 (Thursday) at USJ’s Ilha Verde Campus. Around 50 companies and organisations from public and private sectors joined the event and exhibited. This year, in alignment with the role of Macao in the Framework Agreement on Deepening Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Cooperation in the Development of the Greater Bay Area, Mr. Tai Kin Ip, Director of Macao Economic Bureau, was invited to be the keynote speaker, presenting the topic "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and Macao’s Economic Diversification” with the hope that university students are able to seize opportunities in the further development of the Greater Bay Area.

In addition, a Hengin InnoValley representative was invited to introduce the Policies and Incubator Services in Hengqin to prepare our students for the starting up of their own businesses. Besides focusing on the Greater Bay Area, talks on local opportunities and career advice were provided.

The Career Day is a significant institutional event that brings to USJ representatives from the Government and different organisations, helping our students deepen their understanding of the working world. Exhibitors included, among others, government departments, public corporations, large enterprises and international brands. A wide array of positions, for junior staff, middle and top management, were offered in varied industries, like education, gaming, hotels, insurance, banking, communications, telecommunications and information technology, human resources, social services, and entertainment production.

“Paper Conservation - The Application of Manual Dripping Method with Paper Pulp”

The manual dripping method with paper pulp is a kind of filling technique for conserving paper objects. Compared with the traditional paper repair method, this method is more suitable for conserving objects which have been seriously damaged and/or with lots of insect holes. Efficiency, flatness and reduced use of paste are part of this method’s benefits.

This lecture will introduce the development and application of the pulp repair technique in Mainland China and foreign countries. Additionally, the lecture will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of four different repair methods, namely, traditional paper repair method, paper pulp manual dripping method, semi-mechanical pulp repair method and leaf-casting method.

 

“Introduction to Heritage Conservation Science”

 We hear words like culture, heritage, conservation, restoration, etc., every day, but do we fully understand their meaning? An explanation of these terms is shared with the audience throughout this lecture. The lecture mainly outlines what culture, cultural heritage, and tangible and intangible cultural heritage are; how to preserve them; and introduces the types of conservation in different museums. Finally, the daily workload of an object conservator will be discussed. 

The purpose is to provide Macao citizens with a preliminary understanding of the conservation and restoration of cultural heritage, hopefully increasing the public’s awareness and interest in cultural heritage as a means to achieve sustainable development.

 

“Paper Splitting - Its Development, Technique and Application”

Paper splitting involves splitting the paper into two layers and adding a thin piece of acid-free paper in between to create a “sandwich” structure. This method is especially suitable for severely deteriorated paper. The advantage of using this method is that it does not affect the object’s appearance and fragile paper objects can be well conserved. Paper splitting is often used to conserve and reinforce archives and rare books that are severely embrittled, such as old newspapers.  

There are two types of paper splitting methods: machine splitting and manual splitting. The principle of these two methods are similar and the only difference is that manual splitting must be done by a skilled person. Because of a high risk of irreversible damaging the original paper object, conservation ethics of the paper splitting will be discussed.

In past years, students and professors have been invited by the Macao Institute of Financial Services to participate in the annual Global Money Week. This year, on March 28, students of School of Business and Law were invited to visit the Monetary Authority of Macao (AMCM).

Students of the Bachelor of Business Administration and Bachelor of Government Studies had learned about the monetary system and the role of the central bank in Prof. Florence Lei’s Macroeconomics class. Thus, the presentation given by AMCM staff and their interaction with the students during the Q&A session broadened and deepened students’ financial knowledge.

On March 20th, 2019, to further experiment the local culture, the Public and International Relations Office took the Spring Semester International Exchange Students for dinner at the “Estabelecimento de Comidas Si Fu Chai (Ilha Verde)”, located near USJ's Ilha Verde Campus. A representative of the Office for Student and Alumni Affairs, that closely comes into contact with the students, also joined the dinner.

Students had the opportunity to try traditional dishes like “deep-fried Bombay duck with peppercorn salt”, “sweet and sour pork” and “deep-fried crab meat box”, while experiencing dining like a local.

The dinner was kindly sponsored by the Macao Foundation.
