Gen Verde Start Now Workshop A group of 13 USJ students have participated in a three days workshop organized by an international performing art group –GEN VERDE. The GEN VERDE has recently made an Asian tournee in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao with the artists from 13 countries and they have been presenting more than 1400 concerts around the world and published 66 albums. The participants of the workshops were invited to join the START NOW Concert in which more than 900 audiences were present on 20 February 2016.

Below please find the impression of one of our student Christine de Cruz, BCS student.

It was a great and memorable experience meeting the Gen Verde performing group. My first impression about them is they were sociable, friendly and most especially a person who always give their beautiful smiles even though they were very tired. The workshop helps each one of us a lot because it teaches us how to build teamwork in order to make a good performance during the concert. We met and make friends also with local residents of Macao. It was a good moment to cherish for me. Most, especially to my group who are locals of Macao, became our friends and mingle with us during the workshop. The staff and organisers were very well prepared and gave their best to make that event a successful one.

Of course, their performance was amazing and excellent, they give their very best during their concert and their songs were full of lessons. Most of the time if I'm attending a concert I immediately felt bored if they keep on singing but on 20 February I was totally quiet and listen to them. The beauty of the music that they were playing touch me so much because I can feel the meaning of the songs when they sang it. Thank you so much to the Gen Verde we learn a lot from them and of course to the staffs, organisers and to USJ, this workshop will help us as future missionaries in understanding the youth of today.

Drifting between the islands off the Antarctic Peninsula, they collected video and audio recordings that would become inspirational artistic material for their upcoming creations. Through the lens of his camera, Barbosa captured the overwhelming natural beauty of Antarctica and published a book of photographs to share with the public a collection of inspiring images from this artistic expedition. This concert features music pieces selected, improvised and composed by Barbosa, played jointly by the Macanese Pianist Christine Hong and guest musicians José Alberto Gomes and the Hong Kong New Music Ensemble. They will perform experimental electro-acoustic compositions featuring the interactive music device developed and patented by Barbosa (the Radial String Chimes).

Constructed wetlands are an ecotechnology to complement wastewater existing treatment systems or act as main treatment unit enhancing water quality. They are biological systems that intent to mimic biogeochemical processes that occur in natural wetlands in order to promote water depuration. This talk intents to present the constructed wetlands (CW) use and functioning. In particular, a case study will be highlighted where a CW has been implemented at a real scale for a wastewater treatment coming from a tourism facility in a rural area.   About the Speaker Cristina Calheiros holds a PhD in Biotechnology, specialization in Environmental Science and Engineering from Universidade Católica Portuguesa-Escola Superior de Biotecnologia.

Cognitive differences are largely misunderstood by educators because the brain is a complex and hidden organ. This has meant that successful inclusion of learners with cognitive disabilities into community schools has been slow and often challenging. The lecture begins by discussing cognitive diversity affecting all of us. When cognitive differences interfere with our everyday functioning, specific learning disabilities may be diagnosed. When learning disabilities are generalised, intellectual disability is diagnosed. Children with intellectual disability, like their peers, require appropriate cognitive challenges to stay engaged in the classroom. The question of optimal challenge can be tricky. The lecture will explore how teachers might decide when to teach and when to compensate for a learner’s cognitive difficulty. ABOUT THE SPEAKER Dr Donna Couzens is an honorary research fellow in the School of Education at the University of Queensland, Australia. Donna’s research focuses on understanding and supporting diverse learners with a specific focus on cognitive, communication and behaviour differences. One of Donna’s research projects forms part of a longitudinal Down syndrome program hosted at the University of Queensland. This research seeks to understand influences on age-related change in cognitive development for learners with Down syndrome and implications of this development for teaching and learning. Donna has also been involved in research focussed on supporting learners with autism spectrum disorder, physical disabilities and students with specific learning disabilities. Donna is currently working with a team of researchers from Brunei and Singapore seeking to understand perceptions of staff involved in developing more inclusive classrooms."

As opposed to the classical top-down, checking-boxes, fixed-systems; we need to REread and REform the process of sharing and acquiring information. Both in their practice and in the educational pursuits the notion of RE:Learning the City is conceived of as a spatial and co-creational knowledge exchange, where professionals|citizens, foreigners|locals, lecturers|students, and craftsmen|researchers crash together in a free flowing information exchange – creating a multi-layered learning and doing process across disciplines, for all.   About the Speaker Jason Hilgefort studied urban planning and design at The University of Cincinnati and architecture at The University of British Columbia. His work experience ranges from New York (Ehrenkrantz Eckstut and Kuhn), to Los Angeles (Behnisch Architects) to Mumbai (Rahul Mehrotra of GSD). From 2000 to 2004 he worked with renowned New Urbanist and Sustainable innovator Peter Calthorpe. He joined Maxwan A+U in 2007, he was involved in the ongoing projects Moscow A101 and lead the projects for Central District Rotterdam and Barking Riverside in London. He was in charge of Maxwan’s numerous competition victories – including Helsinki, Basel, Kiev, Brussels, Antwerp, Ostrava, Hannover, Magdeburg, and Kaunas. Jason won Europan 11 in Vienna. In 2012 he founded Land+Civilization Compositions for investigating issues of the built environment, ranging from daily objects, to infrastructures, to cultural research. Recently, Jason is part of FUR [Future Urban Regions] and through it is researching/working with Tilburg Academie and the City of Eindhoven to envision how it can leverage 21st century water needs to form innovative urban spaces. Also, he is a contributor to uncube magazine - writing on ‘architecture and beyond’. Currently, Jason is the director of the Shenzhen Architecture Biennale’s educational program – the Aformal.Academy: RE:learning the City.   Flickr Album here" ["post_title"]=> string(33) "Public Lecture: Aformal Armatures" ["post_excerpt"]=> string(0) "" ["post_status"]=> string(7) "publish" ["comment_status"]=> string(6) "closed" ["ping_status"]=> string(6) "closed" ["post_password"]=> string(0) "" ["post_name"]=> string(32) "public-lecture-aformal-armatures" ["to_ping"]=> string(0) "" ["pinged"]=> string(0) "" ["post_modified"]=> string(19) "2016-03-04 15:33:13" ["post_modified_gmt"]=> string(19) "2016-03-04 07:33:13" ["post_content_filtered"]=> string(0) "" ["post_parent"]=> int(0) ["guid"]=> string(51) "http://www.usj.edu.mo/?post_type=events&p=8622" ["menu_order"]=> int(0) ["post_type"]=> string(5) "event" ["post_mime_type"]=> string(0) "" ["comment_count"]=> string(1) "0" ["filter"]=> string(3) "raw" } [14]=> object(WP_Post)#3774 (24) { ["ID"]=> int(8611) ["post_author"]=> string(2) "10" ["post_date"]=> string(19) "2016-02-26 12:29:35" ["post_date_gmt"]=> string(19) "2016-02-26 04:29:35" ["post_content"]=> string(2348) "   Organized by the Institute of European Studies of Macau, the Department of Architecture and Design in the Faculty of Creative Industries at the University of Saint Joseph, the Politecnico di Milano, and Albergue SCM, the “Ephemerality” symposium gathers a select group of leading designers and educators from Asia, Europe, and America to discuss innovative ideas in temporary architecture, and crossovers with the fields of art and design.   Date Saturday, 5 March 2016, 9:00–17:00   Venue Speakers Hall University of Saint Joseph 16 Rua de Londres Macau   Organizers Thomas Daniell (University of Saint Joseph, Macau) Marco Imperadori (Politecnico di Milano, Italy) José Luís de Sales Marques (Institute of European Studies of Macau) Carlos Marreiros (Marreiros Architectural Atelier, Macau)   Supporters A.C.E.

In his presentation Prof. Kaltenbrunner will introduce the basics of tangible interaction design and briefly discuss the relation of human computer interaction and electronic music. This is motivated by the intention to overcome the limitations of the laptop as primary tool for contemporary electronic music practice, leading to the development of novel instruments and tangible musical artefacts. Furthermore this presentation will also provide a personal perspective on the history of the Reactable and the development of its fundamental design concepts. Short bio: Martin Kaltenbrunner is Professor at the Interface Culture Lab at the University of Art and Design in Linz. Before his return to Austria he worked as researcher and lecturer at the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona, at the MIT Medialab Europe in Dublin, and further European universities. As co-founder of Reactable Systems he had been mainly responsible for the interaction design concepts behind the Reactable, a tangible modular synthesizer. The instrument has been shown at several international media art and music festivals, and was awarded with the Prix Ars Electronica Golden Nica for Digital Music.

Our understanding of the scale of metal pollution as well as the impact on estuarine ecosystem is still limited, largely due to the lack of recognition of persistence of metal pollution. In this lecture, I will discuss metal pollution in Southern China Estuaries, and their impact on local organisms. About the Speaker Prof. Wen-Xiong Wang is the Chair Professor in the Division of Life Science, HKUST. Prof. Wang’s major research interest is to understand the biogeochemistry, bioavailability and toxicity of metals to aquatic organisms. Prof. Wang has authored in excess of 360 peer-reviewed publications on subjects related to metal ecotoxicology (geochemistry, bioaccumulation and toxicity) and biogeochemistry (biologically-mediated cycling of metals). He is the corresponding or first author for the majority of his publications. He is the Editor of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, and Aquatic Biology, and the Associate Editors of Environmental Pollution and Estuaries and Coasts, and serves in the Editorial Boards of many other international journals in environmental sciences. His work is widely cited, with a current H-index of 46. He received the prestigious Overseas Distinguished Young Scientist Award from the Chinese National Science Foundation in 2002, the Biwako Prize for Ecology in Japan for his work on metals in aquatic systems, and the first Prize in Natural Science (as a sole PI) from the Ministry of Education in China for his work on the trophic transfer of metals.
