15:30 - Talem Collective - 'Skirmishes.'
In their film, Tamsin Grainger and Ursula Troche play out a feminist subversion of the ancient Scottish-English border skirmishes of cattle rustlers and border reivers, crossing the river Esk. They approach the boundary of the still-united kingdom on foot, with anticipation, carrying offerings (a sheep’s jaw, white flag, thread to sew up wounds). What do the possible futures look like? What of frontiers, Brexit, independence? What role do artists and women play in bringing two sides together? In this discussion session, the artists (a German woman from Maryport, England; an English woman from Edinburgh, Scotland) come together to talk about how they playfully created a largely ephemeral artwork.

16:30 - Raphael Soifer and Madeline Avram Blount - 'Urban Trash-Up.'
Create a Zoom-based dreamscape of an imagined city using found images, text, audio and other online detritus. Through sampling, this collective digital score will unfold in real time. Inspired by bricolage, Viewpoints, physical and online wanderings, participants will explore overlaps between individual and collective experiences of the urban spaces. After over a year of waking up to a global pandemic, what cities do we dream of inhabiting and making? Please bring along your own images, texts and sound to add to the mix. Clip art, noises and assorted public domain junk will be provided. JOIN THIS LIVE EVENT HERE: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85430408058?pwd=WG9YWlpPdzJva3ptYUFyQ28zTHBudz09 |

17:15 - Anna Soper - 'In Her Footsteps: Recreating the Lost Herbarium of Catharine McGill Crooks.'
In the early 1860s Kate Crooks, a young Canadian botanist, created an extensive collection of dried botanical specimens. Based in Canada West (now the province of Ontario), Crooks collected native and introduced plant species alike, capturing a record of the region’s flora before industrialisation and urban sprawl. Just one of Kate Crooks’ botanical specimens appears to have survived the 150 years since her death, and Crooks is now unknown in Canada. Soper explores this fascinating woman of science and describes her quest to recreate Crooks’ lost herbarium.

18:00 - Richard Byrne, Clemence Debaig and David Upton - 'MOOZ - Playing out with Zoom.'
Is it possible to play real games over Zoom? How much do we really understand the platform, and how does it affect our interactions? What do we learn about ourselves if we try? How do we know if we're winning? Is Zoom safe to use for important things, like work or psychogeography? Why all these questions? Join the Mooz team for the final 15 minutes of Zoom games. Please book ahead via Eventbrite so we can send you a Zoom link. Game rules will be explained for those who don't know them already. Sessions will be recorded.
