SUMMARY:Summer School In Visual Analytics\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Organised by the Knowledge Discovery Unit (KDU) at the Insight Centre for Data Analytics\, the Moore Institute and the Lero Software Research Centre\, NUI Galway. \nRunning from the 10th – 14th of June at the Insight Centre for Data Analytics\, NUI Galway\, Ireland\, the KDU Visual Analytics Summer School will provide students\, researchers\, academics and industry professionals with an opportunity to come together to learn\, share experiences and to develop new cross-disciplinary partnerships. Over the course of this 5 day-long summer school participants will: \n\nlearn from key researchers in the field\,\ntake part in hands-on sessions to deepen these learnings\, and\nwork together on case-study oriented mini-projects.\n\nThe target audiences include postgraduate students and early career researchers in the fields of data analysis\, visualisation\, digital humanities\, Human Computer Interaction (HCI)\, business and IT. This diverse group of disciplines is important\, as it will enable interdisciplinary approaches to both the mini-projects within the workshop\, and to future collaborative research projects. We are also keen to include participants drawn from local industry and the civil service\, especially those whose role includes data-led decision-making. \nRegistration & further information\nFees: €250 early bird registration (before May 1st) / €350 regular \nOnline registration now open at http://vass.datascienceinstitute.ie/registration/ \nFor further information please contact the organisers at vass@insight-centre.org or visit vass.datascienceinstitute.ie

SUMMARY:‘Thinking Through the Skin: Touching Northern Irish Short Fiction’
DESCRIPTION:  \nTalk by Moore Visiting Fellow Caroline Magennis \n‘This talk will offer an overview of the depiction of Northern Irish skin in recent short story collections\, particularly Bernie McGill’s Sleepwalkers (2013) and \nRoisin O’Donnell’s Wild Quiet (2016). Drawing on work by Laura Marks\, Abbie Garrington\, Virginia Woolf\, Sara Ahmed and others\, this paper seeks to examine \nhow we might engage with this new representation of the body and the potential of the haptic to be a mode of both self-knowledge and transmission. In these \nshort stories\, moments of connection through touch are lingered on and memories of touch past are pivotal. White Northern Irish skin is not valorised or \ncelebrated\, but often cast as something fragile and permeable that absorbs the toxic quality of the atmosphere. Scars are everywhere\, and language is a fleshy \nmechanism involving lips\, tongues and teeth. This talk will argue that recent short stories continue to move the Northern Irish body away from its \nrepresentational dead end as over-deterministic symbol of the conflict. Rather than just the body in pain\, skin is revealed to be a complex medium that yields
