Bowes Museum Gallery Dialectogram
No full textAn illustration created by Mitch Miller as part of the Artcasting project (AH/M008177/1). The Artcasting project developed, tested and assessed ‘artcasting‘, a new digital and mobile form of evaluation of arts-based engagement, in the context of ARTIST ROOMS On Tour. The objectives of the project were to understand how mobilities approaches can enrich arts evaluation; to design, develop and pilot the artcasting platform; to generate a new approach to evaluation that can be built upon in the future; and to influence ARTIST ROOMS evaluation practice. The dialectogram illustration visualises the space of one of the project sites - the Bowes Museum - alongside 'artcasts' generated by visitors to the exhibition. Project PI: Dr Jen Ross, Digital Education, University of Edinburgh.

Re-imagining higher education futures
Full text linkThis workshop is intended for those who have an interest in speculative methods, storytelling and the future of networked learning in universities.
The workshop will use a set of new speculative scenarios for the future of higher education teaching. The scenarios were developed in 2022 to work as a provocation and starting point for new conversations about the future of our universities and the teaching we do through them. They aim to unsettle assumed futures and support us to imagine new, desirable ones. They are told from a particular time and place, and speak to present concerns and hopes. Each scenario is accompanied by a piece of microfiction which aims to convey something of what of what our imagined futures might look and feel like.
It will be run by Sian Bayne and Jen Ross
Jen Delos Reyes
No full textProjects in this collection: Open Engagement
From http://www.jendelosreyes.com/about: Jen Delos Reyes was born in the city of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, and educated first in its local music scene of the mid-90’s infused with the energy of Riot grrrl and DIY, and then in its university. [1] How she works today is rooted in what she learned in her formative years as a show organizer, listener, creator of zines, and band member. Graduate work at the University of Regina made the space possible for her to see her work as an organizer as a key component of her continued creative work.
Jen Delos Reyes is a \u27farmer of sorts and an artist of sorts\u27[2], educator, writer, and radical community arts organizer. She is defiantly optimistic, a friend to all birds, and proponent that our institutions can become tender and vulnerable. Her practice is as much about working with institutions as it is about creating and supporting sustainable artist-led culture.
Delos Reyes worked within Portland State University from 2008-2014 to create the first flexible residency Art and Social Practice MFA program in the United States and devised the curriculum that focused on place, engagement, and dialogue. The flexible residency program allowed for artists embedded in their communities to remain on site throughout their course of study.
She worked with the Portland Art Museum from 2009-14 on a series of programs and integrated systems that allowed artists to rethink what can happen in a museum, and reinvigorate the idea of the museum as a public space.
From 2015-2022 Delos Reyes was the Associate Director of the School of Art & Art History of the University of Illinois, Chicago’s only public research university, where she taught in the departments of Art and Museum and Exhibition Studies.
She was the Director and founder of Open Engagement, an international annual conference on socially engaged art that was active between 2007-2019 and hosted ten conferences in two countries at locations including the Queens Museum in New York. After over a decade of large scale organizing she is now focused on work on the scale of her life.
She is the author of I’m Going to Live the Life I Sing About in My Song: How Artists Make and Live Lives of Meaning, Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Public Engagement But Were Afraid to Ask, and Defiantly Optimistic: Turning Up in a World on Fire.
Delos Reyes divides her time between Chicago, IL where she is the founder of Garbage Hill Farm, and Ithaca, NY where she is an Associate Professor of Art at Cornell University.

Public Support for the Financing of RD&D Activities in New Clean Energy Technologies
Full text linkSeveral market failures, as well as other technical, economic and regulatory barriers to the market penetration of clean energy technologies result in under-investment of private innovators in RD&D. Therefore, public support is needed in order to induce innovations. Policy tools creating market conditions that are attractive for the exploitation of clean technologies (market pull) must be combined with other tools directly supporting the development of these technologies through the provision of public funds (technology push). Thereby, financing policy instruments should be chosen so that their characteristics match with those of the specific innovation process being targeted at the same time that social welfare is maximized. We develop an analytical framework to define the form of public support and to provide recommendations on the optimal choice of both technology push and market pull instruments.clean energy technologies; innovation finance; public support; technology push; market pull
