Jason vs GIJOE
No full textThesis (Master's)--University of Washington, 2019Jason vs GI JOE is partly an exercise in autobiography, an experiment in relational aesthetics, and an interdisciplinary artist project at the intersection of comic books, creative writing and performance art. This comic book, Jason vs. GIJOE, is a postmodern double erasure, based on the comic book GIJOE: Cobra II (Issue 1). The original pictures from the comic book have been removed, and replaced by a series of short narratives, describing autobiographical events from the life of the author: me, Jason. Speech bubbles from the original have been left to comment back over top of the stories, obscuring meaning but creating moments of unplanned dialogue. The comic is a readymade, twice erased: once to replace the drawings of the initial comic, and again when using the original dialogue bubbles to speak back to the narrative
Oral history interview with Jason Poudrier
No full textJason Poudrier, author, discusses growing up in a military family and living in Alaska, North Dakota, Oregon, and finally Oklahoma. He describes what it was like enlisting in the Army after high school in 2001 and how his military service affected him. A recipient of the Purple Heart, he shares his experiences getting injured by shrapnel in Iraq. He later talks about how he uses poetry and writing to cope with his memories of war, and how he hopes to help others do the same.The Deep Roots: Oklahoma Authors Collection is a series of interviews with authors who discuss their lives, work, and creative processes

The people behind the papers – Jason Ko and Daniel Lobo
No full textPlanarians grow when they are fed and shrink during periods of starvation. However, it is unclear how they maintain appropriate body proportions as their size changes. A new paper in Development investigates the differences between growth and shrinkage dynamics and builds a mathematical model to explore the mechanisms underpinning these two processes. To learn more about the story behind the paper, we caught up with first author, Jason Ko, and corresponding author, Daniel Lobo, Associate Professor at the University of Maryland.https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.20298
Uptake and impact of carbon dots and their copper complex on tomato health
No full textData files are for the manuscript in submission.Nanomaterials are being increasingly studied for their use in agriculture to promote healthy crop growth and mitigate the damaging effects of plant diseases. Copper is among the elements delivered and managed with nanoenabled-agriculture practices, but it is challenging to balance copper levels because some doses mitigate disease, but in excess, it can be harmful and interrupt photosynthetic function. Carbon dots (CDs) are an emerging, sustainable class of fluorescent nanomaterials with affinity for copper ions that possess good biocompatibility and low toxicity, making them an ideal candidate for use in crop applications. Here, a range of CDs were synthesized from citric acid and urea with varied affinity for copper ions. We investigated how chelated copper affects CD fluorescence and structure, and we proposed a mechanism for the chelation of Cu2+ by CDs. Additionally, the effects of the Cu-CD complex on both healthy and disease-bearing tomato plants were evaluated. The data show that the complex had no toxic effects on the plant and can increase seedling biomass by 44-61% when applied through a vacuum seed infiltration method. The desorption of copper from the Cu-CD complex exhibited a slow-release profile, indicating that CDs could be an effective tool for mitigating excess copper in plants.NSF Center for Sustainable Nanotechnology, CHE-2001611Ford Foundation Postdoctoral FellowshipMRSEC, DMR-2011401NNCI, ECCS-2025124Yao, Xiaoxiao; Shen, Yu; Hu, Peiguang; Stitgen, Abigail; Kesner, Laura; Sigmon, Leslie R.; Deng, Chaoyi; Jilani, Safia J.; Rosenzweig, Zeev; Fairbrother, D.

Ep. #085 - Jason W. Moore
No full textThis recording and transcript form part of a collection of podcasts conducted by the Cultures of Energy at Rice University. Cultures of Energy brings writers, artists and scholars together to talk, think and feel their way into the Anthropocene. We cover serious issues like climate change, species extinction and energy transition. But we also try to confront seemingly huge and insurmountable problems with insight, creativity and laughter.Cymene and Dominic talk capital and Vanilla Isis and then (11:21) we welcome to the podcast the one and only Jason W. Moore from Binghamton University, author of Capitalism in the Web of Life (Verso, 2015) and Anthropocene or Capitalocene? (PM Press, 2016). We chat with Jason about his most recent work, co-authored with Raj Patel, A History of the World in Seven Cheap Things (U California Press, 2017), forthcoming this October. We talk about why he wanted to write a book for a broader audience, the problems with the “anthropocene” concept in the human sciences, how “capitalocene” can improve our thinking about world history, and how we can avoid vulgar materialism in critical environmental research and activism today. We cover the role that states and agriculture have played in shaping modern capitalism and Jason calls for a seriously engaged pluralism to tackle the urgent challenges of our era. We discuss the cheapening or thingification of life, capitalism as a gravitational field, the importance of frontiers, the violence of the Great Domestication, and why if green energy remains in the mode of “cheap fuel” nothing will change about capitalist accumulation. Jason explains why racial and gender domination are so often lacunae in critiques of petromodernity. Finally we ruminate on how to unmake the capitalist world-ecology and the key principles of the “reparation ecology” that Jason and his colleagues are calling for. Tired of the debate within the left about whether to prioritize jobs or the environment? Then you’ll want to listen on
Philosophy for Teachers: Between Ignorance, Invention and Improvisation
No full textEducational and philosophical practices are both rooted in the common form of dialogue and inquiry. This claim, widely discussed in pedagogical literature, is a core assumption in the Philosophy for/with Children community (cf. Kennedy, 1991; Kohan, 2014; Lipman 1988; 2003; Santi & Oliverio, 2012) and acts as the starting point for the analysis to follow, which tries to re-think teaching by situating dialogue and inquiry as its core. The main purpose of this chapter is to problematize the role of the teacher in a dialogical and philosophical inquiry through a philosophical and educational approach to the concepts of ignorance, invention and improvisation.
The idea of an ignorant teacher for whom ignorance is a condition needed in order to really teach has been taken up by J. Rancière in The Ignorant Schoolmaster (1991). One of the key moves made by Rancière in this book, which retells the story of a Post-revolutionary French teacher Joseph Jacotot, is to split the “natural” connection between teaching and knowing. In Rodríguez’s writings one comes across an oft repeated phrase: “We invent or we err.” (Rodríguez 2001b: 185). For Rodríguez, invention is a criterion for truth. Epistemologically, educationally and politically, it sustains social life. Philosophizing within a community of inquiry is the context in which the dilemma between ignorance and invention might be taken as a pragmatic opportunity to dialogue. In other words, through a constant commitment to questioning, a community of inquiry reveals aporias and seeks to resolve them, while still being aware of their impossibility of resolution. In fact, dialogue is an exploratory practice that implies the ignorance of truth and others’ ideas, and which motivates participants to continuously seek the invention of shared forms of thinking and living. The relationship between thinking and dialogue is reversed: “The common assumption is that reflection generates dialogue, when, in fact, it is dialogue that generates reflection” (Lipman, Sharp & Oscanyan 1980: 22). Keeping with the notion of “invention” expressed above, dialogue, practiced in a certain way, opens up space for the arrival of “ignored” others: other thoughts, feelings, imagination, etc..., and it gives hospitality to whomever and whatever comes. The dialogical movement between ignorance and invention is bi-directional and produces their reciprocal determination and the emergence of new thoughts. In other words, if you ignore something you have to invent it; if you invent something, you have to ignore it. Improvising involves attitudes which contribute to clarify and add more suggestions to rethink the teaching activity and teacher role as mediation between ignorance and invention
