SUMMARY:Danbury's Castle: The Hearthstone
DESCRIPTION:DANBURY’S CASTLE: ARCHITECT E.G.W. DIETRICH AND HIS DESIGN OF THE HEARTHSTONE: For the past 10 years\, Christopher Jend has researched architect E. G. W. Dietrich (1875-1924) documenting nearly 450 of his designs. In this presentation\, Jend will discuss Dietrich’s body of work from eye-catching shingle style designs to his contributions to the arts and crafts style and place in context Dietrich’s design of the local Danbury landmark “the Hearthstone.” Constructed between 1895-99 for successful portrait photographer E. Starr Sanford\, this remarkable castle-like structure is composed of local stone quarried on the site. Exhibiting historic Norman as well as Shingle Style and Arts and Crafts elements\, this unique home served as a private residence until it was purchased by the City of Danbury in 1985. Despite being listed on the National Register of Historic Places\, the house and outbuildings suffered from neglect\, yet the stone walls still stand evoking romantic ideas of architecture and place. \nAttend in-person or by Zoom at 6 p.m..

SUMMARY:Bot Shop (Media Literacy Week Presentations)
DESCRIPTION:BOT SHOP (MEDIA LITERACY WEEK PRESENTATIONS): Who said that?! With increase use of artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots\, sometimes the answer isn’t a “who\,” but rather a “what”. Learn about the history of chatbots and representations of A.I. in popular cinema with WCSU Communications and Media Arts professor\, Dr. Eric Stewart\, at 2 p.m.. Stewart will also discuss the current use and future implications of non-human actors in Hollywood and video games. His 45-minute presentation will be followed by a hands-on workshop in developing chatbots to create an interactive scene based off main characters from original student scripts using the open source scripting language\, RiveScript. \nJoin us at the Haas Library or online for this fascinating talk and workshop on artificial intelligence and chatbots in pop culture and their potential implications in real life.

SUMMARY:Marine Organisms
DESCRIPTION:RESILIENCE OF MARINE ORGANISMS TO CLIMATE CHANGE: DR. EMMA CROSS: Please join us for a live online seminar at 4 p.m. sponsored by the Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences. \nYou can register for the event at this link to receive the information to join the seminar: \nhttps://wcsu.webex.com/webappng/sites/wcsu/meeting/info/480684a56b3b412ab6f98c127a64af0f?isPopupRegisterView=true \nAbstract: Since the Industrial Revolution\, anthropogenically-increased CO2 has altered oceanic surface seawaters through warming and acidification. Coastal environments also experience nutrient pollution\, which increases primary production and microbial respiration often exacerbating acidification and causing loss of oxygen. Previous ocean acidification research has mainly focused on short-term laboratory manipulations of conditions. Incorporating different approaches investigating both the impacts of past and future environmental change provides a more complete understanding of organisms’ responses. My research involves field analyses\, long-term laboratory experiments and museum collections to more accurately determine how seaweed\, marine invertebrates and vertebrates have and will respond to climate change. In this seminar\, I will discuss how some shell-bearing organisms have compensatory mechanisms to counteract effects of ocean acidification\, how coastal marine fish are tolerant of future predicted acidification and hypoxia as well as how the shellfish aquaculture industry can incorporate seaweed to their operations as a climate change mitigation strategy. \nBio: Dr. Emma Cross is an assistant professor of Coastal and Marine Science in the Department of the Environment\, Geography and Marine Sciences since August 2019. Before SCSU\, Cross completed her Ph.D. at the University of Cambridge and the British Antarctic Survey and then moved across the pond for a postdoctoral research fellow position at the University of Connecticut. Cross teaches a range of hands-on marine science and environmental studies classes covering topical issues such as climate change\, plastic pollution\, overfishing and habitat destruction. Her research focuses on the effects of ocean acidification\, warming and hypoxia on seaweed\, marine invertebrates\, and vertebrates. Cross’ current projects include climate change mitigation strategies for the aquaculture industry and the environmental impacts of aquaculture on water quality and biodiversity. Cross uses field analyses\, long-term laboratory experiments and museum collections as well as collaborations with the aquaculture industry and nonprofit organizations in New England to address topical marine science issues.
