Amanda Dawn Christie : Land Lost
"Land Lost is a solo exhibition that attempts a modest lineage of Christie’s art practice: from experimental film, to performance, through to photography and installation. The exhibit looks at the influence of spectacle and performance found in Christie’s work, the implications of nature in the artist’s films, and the personal sometimes self-deprecating world of DIY technology. Here, Land Lost means to negotiate between one’s own site-specific state and the non-narrative space of memory and the mind. Amanda Dawn Christie, recently shortlisted for the IMAA National Media Art Prize, has gained notoriety for her alternative processes and approaches to celluloid, and has brought to life a unique fusion of technology-driven performances, whilst remaining somewhat bound to electronics from our so-called past. For Amanda Dawn Christie: Land Lost, the artist carefully suspends reality, creating a fictional space with subtle streams from her life, but does not shy away from rupturing the dream-state to confront the viewer with the interlinked relationship of the self and the demise of technology.
A bilingual catalogue of the exhibition, containing full colour reproductions and four essays written by Mireille Bourgeois, Scott Birdwise, Pip Chodorov, and Amanda Dawn Christie, are available for purchase . The catalogue was launched on November 19 during the FICFA (Festival international du cinéma francophone en Acadie)." -- Site web de l'artiste
Patterning sensory axon projections in the Drosophila embryonic nervous system
Sensory neurons make specific axonal projections in the CNS according to their position and modality. The genetic specification of position and sensory identity therefore determines where an axon terminates in the CNS. This process is central to the generation of an ordered CNS. The aim of the work presented here was to examine the mechanisms that control the translation of positional information and sensory modality into patterns of central projections. Although many genes involved in determining sense organ type have been identified, little is known regarding the specification of positional values within the sensory nervous system. While the anterior-posterior and dorso-ventral patterning genes are thought to supply the positional information that governs the formation of neural precursors, their activity remains largely uncharacterised in the embryonic PNS.A detailed analysis of the expression of known segmentation genes was conducted to provide a cell by cell identification of expressed genes within the sensory nervous system. Based on this knowledge, selected genes were misexpressed in sensory neurons and embryos examined for defects. In order to determine the role of these genes several methods of targeting gene expression to single neurons were examined: the MARCM technique, which enables mosaic analysis to be conducted in a cell-specific manner, and laser activated gene expression. The MARCM technique was used to characterise the central projections of embryonic-born sensory neurons in larvae. This will provide a framework in which the role of candidate genes in determining the central projections of individual neurons can be analysed.</p
