SUMMARY:Archiving Eden: Seed Exchange by Dornith Doherty
DESCRIPTION:Archiving Eden: Exchange presents x-ray images of 5\,000 seeds — the smallest number required to preserve a single plant species. Housed within a vault-like structure\, the installation by artist Dornith Doherty comes to life during seed exchange events\, where visitors are invited to take home an image from the vault’s walls and replace it with a transparent envelope containing a single Canadian seed. Over time\, the installation will change both physically and visually: from representational to actual\, dark to light. \nThe seeds available for exchange are representative of common agricultural crops grown in Canada\, including soy\, corn and beans\, as well as a variety of native wild plant species. The black-and-white x-rays lining the installation’s walls were captured by Doherty in collaboration with scientists at several international seed banks. \nMOCA presents Archiving Eden: Exchange as the fifth installment of Art in Use\, a series devoted to exploring the ways in which museums can be socially and politically useful. With Archiving Eden: Exchange\, viewers are encouraged to examine their collective responsibility to care for the environment while reflecting on the monumental effort required to safeguard biodiversity. At the close of the exhibition\, the 5\,000 seeds will be donated to the Toronto Botanical Garden Seed Library — a collection of vegetable\, herb and flower seeds that growers can borrow from and donate to. \nLearn more \n  \nThe Power of a Single Seed\nWith Sayeh Dastgheib-Beheshti\n \nJoin us for a 15-minute drop-in workshop on how to grow a native Ontario plant from a single seed. Native plants have evolved over millennia to thrive in a specific climate and are an integral part of our environment. They offer food\, shelter and ecosystems for wildlife and humans alike. Each day of the workshop series will feature a different plant variety. You will learn about its characteristics\, its importance to wildlife\, as well as the basics of seed stratification and preparing a seed to grow in its preferred environment. At the end of the workshop\, you will leave with a seed that is already stratified\, or one that you can stratify to grow at home. \nFree\, drop-in\, all ages\, 1-4 pm \n\n\n\n\nDornith Doherty\, Vault: Exchange (detail)\, Installation view at the Ontario Science Centre Toronto\, Canada. April – August 2019.

SUMMARY:Pint-Sized Conversations: Body of Work with Matt Russo
DESCRIPTION:Pint-Sized Conversations with MOCA is a monthly night brought to you by Henderson Brewing Co. MOCA will present Body of Work every second Wednesday of the month.\n\n\n \n\n\nBody of Work talks invite artists and those who have worked across the floors of MOCA Toronto—members of Akin’s Studio Program\, Art Metropole\, the Ontario Science Centre’s studio residency and the Toronto Biennial—to discuss their individual practices. ‘Body’ is a term used to describe the texture and weight of beer\, and the word body in artistic practice often refers to a particular arrangement of artworks. The speakers in this series have been invited to respond to this duality.\n\n\n \n\n\n—\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMusic of the Moon\nMatt Russo \nWhat is the rhythm of asteroid impacts on the Moon? Can the Moon’s surface carry a tune? What does 50 years of lunar exploration sound like? In this talk\, Matt from SYSTEM Sounds will share some of the ways they’ve been able to generate sound and music using lunar data and what it means for the people of Earth. This is also your chance to play the Sonic Orbiter\, an interactive exhibit they created for their MOCA residency that lets you explore the Moon’s surface through sound.  \nMatt Russo is an astrophysicist and musician\, currently teaching physics and developing planetarium shows at the University of Toronto. He completed his PhD and postdoctoral research in theoretical astrophysics and is also a graduate of the University of Toronto’s Jazz Guitar Performance program. In May of 2017 he co-founded SYSTEM Sounds\, a sci-art outreach project that converts astronomical data into music and sound. Their work has been featured in the New York Times and they frequently collaborate with NASA to make astronomy accessible to the visually impaired. Matt’s TED Talk “What does the universe sound like? A Musical Tour” has been viewed over 1.5 million times. \n\n\nThis event is free and all are welcome! If you’d like to reserve a spot\, you can buy a ticket for $5 and enjoy a free pint when you arrive.\n\nLearn more about Pint-Sized Conversations \n\nRegister for tickets\n\nImage courtesy the artist.

SUMMARY:Monday Night Seminars: "HotMessAge" with Skawennati
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open \nJoin us for Call Forward\, where our guest Skawennati will present her current project\, Calico & Camouflage\, currently in production. The project is a fashion collection of ResistanceWear that blends traditional regalia with military clothing. \nThe McLuhan Centre for Culture and Technology’s annual theme\, HotMessAge\, explores how media and technology underlie today’s social\, economic and environmental crises while at the same time offering us tools to address these challenges. \nThis year the McLuhan Centre for Culture and Technology amplifies some of the voices in Media Studies — voices that offer hot takes with cool possibilities of radical social change. \nThis programme is presented in partnership with the McLuhan Centre for Culture and Technology\, University of Toronto. \nSkawennati makes art that addresses history\, the future\, and change from her perspective as an urban Kanien’kehá:ka woman and as a cyberpunk avatar. Her work has been widely presented in both group exhibitions and solo shows and is included in public and private collections\, such as the National Gallery of Canada and the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal. \nBorn in Kahnawà:ke Mohawk Territory\, Skawennati graduated with a BFA from Concordia University in Montreal\, where she is based. She is Co-Director of Aboriginal Territories in Cyberspace (AbTeC)\, a research-creation network of artists and academics who investigate and create Indigenous virtual environments. Their Skins workshops in Aboriginal Storytelling and Experimental Digital Media are aimed at empowering youth. In 2015 they launched IIF\, the Initiative for Indigenous Futures. \nPortrait by Zoe Tennant\, 2018.

SUMMARY:Digital Justice Lab Workshop: Imagining Feminist Interfaces
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to imagine a feminist digital voice interface? Through a series of speculative design exercises\, we will prototype and discuss what voice technologies might look like if we designed them in line with the central commitments of feminism: participation\, agency\, embodiment\, equity\, empowerment\, plurality and justice. Participants will learn the basics of designing a conversational UI but no prior coding skills are needed. \nImagining Feminist Interfaces is presented in partnership with Digital Justice Lab and Trinity Square Video. \ntendernet is a collective of female-identifying technologists\, writers\, educators\, designers and activists whose work explores speculative design\, networked devices and privacy through an intersectional feminist framework. Most recently\, the collective has led workshops aimed at developing radical feminist interventions to emerging technologies\, with a focus on voice interfaces. Becca Ricks and Zoe Bachman are co-founders of tendernet. tendernet.us \nThe Digital Justice Lab’s (DJL) mission is to focus on building a more just and equitable digital future.

SUMMARY:"Age of You" Drop-in Activity: Defying Facial Recognition
DESCRIPTION:Think you can outsmart facial recognition? In this workshop\, participants will design and construct masks and headpieces inspired by CV Dazzle\, a project by artist Adam Harvey that provides information and tips for creating “looks” that can camouflage the face from face detection technology. Using elements such as asymmetry\, tonal inverse and the concealment of certain facial features\, you will be able to learn and test which design combinations are most effective in hiding from facial recognition technology. \nFree. No tickets or registration required. Drop-in and stay as long as you would like. \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Artists on Artists: Hannah Epstein on "Age of You"
DESCRIPTION:Hannah Epstein works at the cross-section of textiles\, experimental games and video art to reimagine the iconography of popular culture\, highlighting the cultural negotiation between bottom-up (folk) and top-down (institutional) storytelling. By blurring the lines between traditional craft\, popular culture and contemporary art\, she aims to isolate and eliminate notions of hierarchy as archaic relics. Epstein will lead a tour and discussion of Age of You\, with refreshments to follow. \nMOCA’s Artists on Artists series is a programme where local artists are invited to discuss MOCA’s current exhibitions\, or a single artwork\, in any format or direction of their choosing. \n\n  \n\n \nHannah Epstein\, You’re Tearing Me Apart\, 2019.\n

SUMMARY:Pint-Sized Conversations: Body of Work with Cason Sharpe (Art Metropole)
DESCRIPTION:Pint-Sized Conversations a weekly Wednesday night brought to you by Henderson Brewing Co. MOCA will present “Body of Work” every second Wednesday of the month.\n\n\n \n\n\n“Body of Work” talk invites artists and those who have worked across the floors of MOCA Toronto—members of Akin’s Studio Program\, Art Metropole\, the Ontario Science Centre’s studio residency and the Toronto Biennial—to discuss their individual practices. ‘Body’ is a term used to describe the texture and weight of beer\, and the word body in artistic practice often refers to a particular arrangement of artworks. The speakers in this series have been invited to respond to this duality.\n\n\n \n\n\n—\n\n\n \n\n\nCason Sharpe will give an introduction to the world of arts publishing by providing micro-reviews of three titles available from the Art Metropole catalogue. By dissecting these three books\, Cason will distinguish the artist book as a unique form that exists in conversation with but separately from the more traditional worlds of visual art or literary publishing. \n\n\n\n\n\nCason Sharpe is a writer currently based in Toronto. His fiction and criticism has appeared in Canadian Art\, C Magazine\, PRISM International\, The Hart House Review\, and GUTS Canadian Feminist Magazine\, among others. His first collection of short stories\, Our Lady of Perpetual Realness\, was released by Metatron Press in 2017. He has worked as the Manager of Art Metropole since 2018. \n\n\n\n\n\nArt Metropole is a not-for-profit organization with a focus on the production\, dissemination and contextualization of artist-initiated publication in any media\, especially those formats and practices predisposed to sharing and circulation. Found in 1974 by the artist collective General Idea\, Art Metropole now operates a retail storefront in the Museum of Contemporary Art in Toronto\, as well as its own publishing program\, and an extensive archive at the National Gallery of Canada.\n\n\nLearn more about Pint-Sized Conversations\n\nPhoto by Ben Rahn Photography Inc.
