SUMMARY
 :Film Screening - Girl Inside
DESCRIPTION
 :Together as part of the international documentary screening
 network\n\n\n\nCinema Politica, Gallery 1C03 and the University of
 Winnipeg Students&#146;\n\n\n\nAssociation (UWSA) present the film
 "Girl Inside" in\n\n\n\nEckhardt-Gramatté Hall on Wednesday, February
 15 at 6:30 p.m. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDirected by award-winning film maker
 Maya Gallus, "Girl\n\n\n\nInside" (Canada, 2007) was selected by the
 LGBT* Centre and is\n\n\n\npresented in conjunction with Gender Week
 on campus. The film received\n\n\n\na Gemini Award in 2008 for Best
 Direction in a Documentary Program.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFollowing
 26-year-old Madison during a crucial three years of
 her\n\n\n\ntransition from male to female, "Girl Inside" is a
 beautiful\n\n\n\nfilm that tracks her emotional, intellectual and
 spiritual journey of\n\n\n\nself-discovery that is as important as
 &#150; if not more than &#150; the\n\n\n\nphysical journey of hormones
 and surgery. Sharing the spotlight is\n\n\n\nVivien, Madison&#146;s
 glamorous 80-year-old grandmother, who has taken on\n\n\n\nthe job of
 advising her on all things feminine. While Vivien's\n\n\n\nattempts to
 school Madison in old-fashioned codes of fashion and\n\n\n\nbehavior
 are often hilarious, the juxtaposition of two vastly\n\n\n\ndifferent
 experiences of womanhood, from very different
 generations,\n\n\n\nraises profound issues about the nature of gender,
 femininity and\n\n\n\nsexuality. Sometimes funny, sometimes painful,
 this heartwarming\n\n\n\ncoming of age story is both an intimate
 portrait and a thoughtful\n\n\n\nexploration of what it means to be a
 woman.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom the film&#146;s
 website:\n\n\n\n&#147;Quietly fierce and deeply intelligent, Madison's
 story is\n\n\n\nenlightening without being preachy, and Madison is a
 fantastically\n\n\n\nopen and candid subject.&#148; Now
 Magazine\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n&#147;A subtle and in-depth
 portrayal&#133;Shot over three years in direct\n\n\n\ncinema style and
 beautifully structured.&#148;\n\n\n\nLynn Fernie,
 DOXA\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n&#147;GIRL INSIDE gives a frank glimpse into that
 last bastion of LGBTG-dom\n\n\n\nto be embraced by the mainstream: the
 trans-gendered.&#148; Eye Weekly\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease stay for
 discussion after the film with Wade Nelson, faculty\n\n\n\nmember of
 the Department of Rhetoric, Writing and Communications at\n\n\n\nThe
 University of Winnipeg.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll screenings will be open to
 all audiences &#150; everyone is welcome.\n\n\n\nAdmission is free,
 but donations to offset the costs of screening the\n\n\n\nfilm are
 welcome. Eckhardt-Gramatté Hall is located on the third
 floor\n\n\n\nof Centennial Hall at The University of
 Winnipeg.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGallery 1C03 and the UWSA wish to thank
 Cinema Politica for making it\n\n\n\npossible for us to participate in
 this network. We are grateful to the\n\n\n\nCanada Council for the
 Arts for generously supporting this
 initiative.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

DESCRIPTION
 :Prof. Robert Brandenberger, McGill University\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"Testing
 String Theory with Cosmological Observations?"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf
 superstring theory is the correct theory of the microscopic
 world,\n\n\n\nstring theory will be needed to understand the early
 evolution of the\n\n\n\nuniverse. I will show that string theoretic
 effects may lead to an\n\n\n\nevolution of the very early universe
 which is very different from what\n\n\n\nis obtained using
 particle-based scenarios. I will focus on\n\n\n\n"string gas
 cosmology", one particular stringy picture of\n\n\n\nthe very early
 universe. I will demonstrate that this scenario leads\n\n\n\nto an
 alternative to inflationary cosmology as a mechanism to
 generate\n\n\n\nthe primordial fluctuations which evolve into the
 structures we\n\n\n\nobserve today on cosmological scales. This
 alternative is consistent\n\n\n\nwith current data, and makes
 predictions for future observations by\n\n\n\nmeans of which it can be
 distinguished from the inflationary universe\n\n\n\nscenario.

 www.womenartrevolution.com\n\n\n\n____________________________________
 ________________________\n\n\n\nAbout the Film:\n\n\n\nFor over forty
 years, Director Lynn Hershman Leeson has collected\n\n\n\nhundreds of
 hours of interviews with visionary artists,
 historians,\n\n\n\ncurators and critics who shaped the beliefs and
 values of the Feminist\n\n\n\nArt Movement and reveal previously
 undocumented strategies used to\n\n\n\npoliticize female artists and
 integrate women into art structures.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n!Women Art
 Revolution elaborates the relationship of the Feminist
 Art\n\n\n\nMovement to the 1960s anti-war and civil rights movements
 and explains\n\n\n\nhow historical events, such as the all-male
 protest exhibition against\n\n\n\nthe invasion of Cambodia, sparked
 the first of many feminist actions\n\n\n\nagainst major cultural
 institutions. The film details major\n\n\n\ndevelopments in
 women&#146;s art of the 1970s, including the first feminist\n\n\n\nart
 education programs, political organizations and
 protests,\n\n\n\nalternative art spaces such as the A.I.R. Gallery and
 Franklin Furnace\n\n\n\nin New York and the Los Angeles Women&#146;s
 Building, publications such as\n\n\n\nChrysalis and Heresies, and
 landmark exhibitions, performances, and\n\n\n\ninstallations of public
 art that changed the entire direction of art.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNew ways
 of thinking about the complexities of gender, race, class,\n\n\n\nand
 sexuality evolved. The Guerrilla Girls emerged as the
 conscience\n\n\n\nof the art world and held academic institutions,
 galleries, and\n\n\n\nmuseums accountable for discrimination
 practices. Over time, the\n\n\n\ntenacity and courage of these
 pioneering women artists resulted in\n\n\n\nwhat many historians now
 feel is the most significant art movement of\n\n\n\nthe late 20th
 century.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCarrie Brownstein composed an original score
 to accompany the film.\n\n\n\nLaurie Anderson, Janis Joplin,
 Sleater-Kinney, The Gossip, Erase\n\n\n\nErrata and Tribe 8 are some
 of the gifted musicians who contributed to\n\n\n\nour soundtrack.

 of new work\n\n\n\nby Brandon-based artist Chris Reid. "I like to

 drawings, quirky\n\n\n\nre-interpretations of Ukrainian Easter eggs,
 and a multi-media\n\n\n\nsculptural installation. Reid's lush visual

 compelling.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    &#147;Let&#146;s Talk Land Use:
 Perspectives, Practice and Relationship&#148; &#150;\n\n\n\nLinda
 Murphy and Cherie Burns, Moon Voices Peer
 Mentors.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere has been a lot of attention and much
 conflict in relation to the\n\n\n\nissue of Land.  With the intention
 to raise awareness and shift\n\n\n\nperspectives, &#147;Let&#146;s
 Talk Land Use: Perspectives, Practice, and\n\n\n\nRelationship&#148;
 is a highly engaging and interactive Learning Circle\n\n\n\nthat will
 explore practical and experiential practices that
 support\n\n\n\nethical and positive solutions to land-based issues by
 building\n\n\n\nmutually respectful collaborative
 relationships.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    &#147;Power in Story: Reclaiming
 Power One Block at a Time&#148; &#150; Moon\n\n\n\nVoices
 Participants\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWomen&#146;s craft work has always been a
 vehicle for story-telling. \n\n\n\nQuilts have always been much more
 than simply a blanket, and through\n\n\n\neach block or pattern, each
 quilt tells a story about the quilters.\n\n\n\nThe Moon Voices Story
 Quilt weaves together messages of hope,\n\n\n\nresilience, wisdom and
 courage as each block shares a story of\n\n\n\nreclamation of power
 despite the challenges that each woman has faced\n\n\n\nin her
 journey.  Join the circle to experience the power of story,
 and\n\n\n\nthe lessons each stitch brings in learning to build
 community by\n\n\n\nimagining a collective future while honouring the
 individual\n\n\n\ncontributions. (We encourage participants to bring a
 piece of sewing,\n\n\n\nknitting, or quilting to work on while they
 join in the discussion!)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    &#147;Exploring the Good
 Life: Bridging Two Worlds&#148; - Moon
 Voices\n\n\n\nGrandmothers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin the Grandmothers for
 teachings and discussion on the many\n\n\n\nchallenges Indigenous
 people face in learning to walk in two worlds:\n\n\n\nhonouring
 connection to culture and tradition while living in a\n\n\n\nsociety
 that embraces a value system that is very different. 
 Explore\n\n\n\nways of coping, share life lessons, and learn how to
 incorporate a\n\n\n\nspiritual way of being into each day that fosters
 resiliency and\n\n\n\ncreates a supportive bridge that brings the best
 of two worlds\n\n\n\ntogether in order to live a good
 life.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSunday March

 Forward Together: A Community\n\n\n\nArt Project with Lita Fontaine,
 Artist&#148;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGiving voice to the knowledge and
 experience all people carry, while\n\n\n\nreflecting on the raised
 consciousness we have gained through Moon\n\n\n\nVoices in ACTion,
 together we will embark on a creative journey under\n\n\n\nLita
 Fontaine&#146;s artistic guidance.  Through imagery and
 symbols,\n\n\n\ntogether we will visually create a path forward that
 honours\n\n\n\nIndigenous women, embraces the strength in difference,
 and values the\n\n\n\ncomplexity of inter-connection. As the legacy of
 Moon Voices:\n\n\n\nAboriginal Women Reclaiming Our Power, this
 community art project will\n\n\n\nspeak to the importance of healing,
 Indigenous knowledge and culture,\n\n\n\nreconciliation and
 collaboration.  Each of us has a responsibility and\n\n\n\nability to
 respond to injustice and racism, and to create change\n\n\n\nthrough
 learning, growing and mindful action &#150; by joining together
 we\n\n\n\ntruly can change the world!  (note: please wear clothes you
 are\n\n\n\ncomfortable working with paint and other art supplies
 in).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4-5 pm: Closing Teachings and Drum Circle.\n\n\n\n
