Oppressive operating systems? Continuous, expensive upgrades? Then join Felix Jodoin and Reva Stone for their exceptionally informative Introduction to Linux Workshop. Try out Ubuntu Linux and learn about the software applications it includes such as the office suite, the email client, the web browser, and image, video and audio editors. I'd like to use it . . . how do I install it on my computer? Follow up with the Linux Computer Camp where you will actually install Ubuntu Linux on your computer. You'll learn how to use Linux as a desktop operating system, and the applications it includes such as the office suite, the email client, the web browser, and even image, video and audio editors. Works great on older computers—you'll be amazed at how much snappier they become and how much more time you have because you don’t have to do Spyware & Virus cleanup. Linux is a free and Open Source operating system, and will always be that way. An operating system is the part of the computer that manages the devices and programs; without one, nothing worthwhile on the computer would be possible. It includes completely free software, installed and ready to go. reva stone is a Canadian artist well known for her work with digital technologies, including video, net art, interactive installations, robotics and responsive 3D environments. Currently she is working with voice and face recognition technologies. Stone has exhibited her work internationally. She is also active as a curator, a writer and an educator.

First Friday marie-jeanne musiol 12 noon november 3 walking auschwitz: a perspective COFFEE PROVIDED. BRING YOUR LUNCH, ADMISSION IS FREE, EVERYONE WELCOME. Marie-Jeanne Musiol, Camp (periphery): the outskirts, Auschwitz-Birkenau, Poland, 1994-2002. Digital print and lightbox, Le Vieux-Port, Montreal. This subjective artist walk exposes how one can approach from different perspectives the site of Auschwitz, a vast museological complex whose didactic interpretations changed with the Communist downfall in 1989. The artistic experience of such a charged place as Auschwitz implies both a personal connection and a way of looking at the many elements that shape the way the story is told. What is represented, how and why? Marie-Jeanne Musiol’s photographic installations have been exhibited in solo and group shows at public and private galleries, artist-run centres and museums in Canada and abroad. In conjunction with her exhibited work, Marie-Jeanne Musiol has produced limited edition books in which text and photographs intersect. Her travels to distant regions have also transformed archeological itineraries into journeys of a more personal nature. She has worked extensively in Auschwitz, probing the nature of living memory through a series of photographic installations and the video Do Falling Leaves Go Unseen? (1995). Two other videos, Bodies of Light. Fields of Light. States (2000) and Mirrors of the Cosmos (2006), register various aspects of electromagnetic fields around plants. In the book Bodies of Light (2001), she presents recordings of energy emissions around biological bodies. Individual consultations with Musiol will be scheduled on a first come basis with registration at 1 pm, immediately following the presentation. tamara rae biebrich and tricia wasney 12 noon december 1 The Winnipeg Arts Council (WAC) offers funding to individual artists and arts organizations and manages a Public Art Program.
