Please join us to meet Maura, learn about her past in Punk Rock Arobics, and discuss her new project, Weather You Remember, a collection of video "weather reports" delivered by senior citizens as they recall and comment on weather for the location they most identify as "home". Relying only on personal experience and memory, participants in this project are asked to consider the cultural, climate, economic and other changes they have witnessed as indicators of present and future conditions.

Maura Jasper

Maura Jasper is a conceptual multimedia artist whose work investigates how pop cultures and histories shape and inform identity. She has exhibited and screened work widely in the United States and overseas, including at Artist’s Space, Threadwaxing Space, the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, and the Centre for Contemporary Images in Geneva. She is probably best known for her work as a co-founder of Punk Rock Aerobics, the DIY workout. Currently she is a resident in the Artist in Research Program at the Berwick Research Institute and a graduate student at Massachusetts College of Art's Studio for Interrelated Media.

Video Sharing: Screening of Upgrade! Scotland and Upgrade! Vancouver Reels

The goal of Upgrade! International's Video Sharing in Physical Space project is to create low-tech video-sharing communities in physical spaces. Videos are circulated between cities so that programs can be screened locally and internationally. Flyers with individual contact information for the artists whose work is shown are handed out to encourage people who are seeing the work in each of the cities to develop individual connections and relationships. This is essentially a "social software" aspect that picks up on digital social networking strategies--such as YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Friendster, etc.--and attempts to extend them into new spaces in order to reach new communities. Participating nodes are Amsterdam, Belgrade, Boston, Chicago, Istanbul, Montreal, Paris, Scotland, Seattle, Skopje and Vancouver.
