SUMMARY:This is Not My Culture – Open Studio
DESCRIPTION:This is Not My Culture – Open Studio\ncSPACE Neighbourhood Hub \nArtist Xstine Cook invites you to contemplate the creative potential of plastic as she transforms diverted packaging material into a full body mask creature. \nBy touching\, manipulating\, and re-purposing plastic that was intended for a single use before being thrown to Earth to process over unknown millennia\, This is Not My Culture invites you to view this miraculous material not as waste\, but as an extraordinary resource. The globe’s frantic pace of plastic generation is at the crux of the fraught relationship between humans’ minds and hearts; our addiction to convenience\, vs the interconnectedness of all life. \nThe packaging materials for this residency were generated by Cook’s family’s normal consumption over the course of a year\, and will be prepared on site in the Hub\, where the mask will be imagined\, designed\, created and exhibited. Viewers will observe the repetitive\, meticulous process of creation\, and the slow reveal of the creature. \nOpen Studio\nWhenever the artist is working\, the space will be open. See schedule for confirmed times\, or drop by to see what’s going on. \nNote: Space will be closed: September 14-18 \nEvents and Happenings\nCheck out several community events happening as part of This is Not My Culture\, including Make-Your-Own Mask sessions\, Mapperz Bring Your Own HDMI Vol II projection mapping event\, Work and Watch movie nights\, Cabaret Jam puppet meet up\, a screening of the Bum Family’s film Pollution Solution\, a special National Day of Truth and Reconciliation screening of Gitz Crazyboy’s Peace Pipeline\, and an exhibition of This is Not My Culture creations. \n*Some events request registration via Eventbrite. \n*Photo credit: Sean Dennie

SUMMARY:This is Not My Culture – Watch and Work: Naqoyqatsi
DESCRIPTION:Watch and Work is a series of films and documentaries you can watch while artist Xstine Cook works on her Hub residency. Be welcome to bring along a project of your own. Please use the Eventbrite link to register. \nEvent 6: Monday September 11\n9pm: Watch and Work: Free screening of Naqoyqatsi Godfrey Reggio’s 2002 film Life as War. \nDrop in and watch Naqoyqatsi\, also known as Naqoyqatsi: Life as War. This 2002 American non-narrative film directed by Godfrey Reggio and the sequel to Reggio’s experimental 1982 film\, Koyaanisqatsi and 1988’s Powaqqatsi. Naqoyqasti is the third and final film in the Qatsi trilogy. \nNaqoyqatsi is a Hopi word (written as naqö̀yqatsi in Hopi orthography) meaning “life as war.” In the film’s closing credits\, Naqoyqatsi is also translated as “civilized violence” and “a life of killing each other”. A visual montage portrait of our contemporary world dominated by globalized technology and violence. \nWhile Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi examine modern life in industrial countries and the conflict between encroaching industrialization and traditional ways of life\, using slow motion and time-lapse footage of cities and natural landscapes\, about eighty percent of Naqoyqatsi uses archive footage and stock images manipulated and processed digitally on non-linear editing (non-sequential) workstations and intercut with specially-produced computer-generated imagery to demonstrate society’s transition from a natural environment to a technology-based one. Reggio described the process as “virtual cinema.” \nAccording to Reggio\, the film has no screenplay per se\, but three movements (like those of a symphony) with different themes:[5]\n1. Numerica.com: Language and place gives way to numerical code and virtual reality.\n2. Circus maximus: Competition\, winning\, records\, fame\, “fair play” and the love of money are elevated to the prime values of life. Life becomes a game.\n3. Rocketship twentieth century: A world that language can no longer describe. The resulting explosive tempo of technology is war and civilized violence. \nRelease date: October 18\, 2002\nDirector: Godfrey Reggio\nMusic composed by: Philip Glass\nSequel: Naqoyqatsi\, Powaqqatsi\nCinematography: Russell Lee Fine \nNaqoyqatsi will play as part of Xstine Cook’s Artist in Residency This is Not My Culture at cSPACE Eau Claire Neighbourhood Hub. Cook will be working on her art during the screening\, and attendees are welcome to bring along a project they want to work on while watching and listening to the talk. \nFree screening of this movie is presented as part of Xstine Cook’s This is Not My Culture artist residency at cSPACE Eau Claire Neighbourhood Hub. Xstine will be modifying and altering reclaimed commercial plastic packaging material into an artistic creation during the month of September. \nThe cSPACE Eau Claire Hub Artist in Residence program is supported by cSPACE Projects and The City of Calgary. \n*Note that capacity is extremely limited.* If you sign up\, please attend\, or cancel your reservation so that others may. \nPlease consider a donation to Nature Conservancy of Canada \nPlease sign up on Eventbrite.

SUMMARY:This is Not My Culture – Watch and Work: Powaqqatsi
DESCRIPTION:Watch and Work is a series of films and documentaries you can watch while artist Xstine Cook works on her Hub residency. Be welcome to bring along a project of your own. Please use the Eventbrite link to register. \nEvent 5: Monday September 11\n7pm: Watch and Work: Free screening of Powaqqatsi\, Godfrey Reggio’s 1988 film Life in Transformation \n\n\n\nDrop in and watch Powaqqatsi\, also known as Powaqqatsi: Life in Transformation\, a 1988 American non-narrative film directed by Godfrey Reggio and the sequel to Reggio’s experimental 1982 film\, Koyaanisqatsi. It is the second film in the Qatsi trilogy. \nPowaqqatsi is a Hopi neologism coined by Reggio meaning “parasitic way of life” or “life in transition.” While Koyaanisqatsi focused on modern life in industrial countries\, Powaqqatsi\, which similarly has no dialogue\, focuses more on the conflict in Third World countries between traditional ways of life and the new ways of life introduced with industrialization. As with Koyaanisqatsi and the third and final part of the ‘Qatsi‘ trilogy\, Naqoyqatsi\, the film is strongly related to its soundtrack\, written by Philip Glass. \nRelease date: April 29\, 1988 \nDirector: Godfrey Reggio \nMusic composed by: Philip Glass \nSequel: Naqoyqatsi \nCinematography: Graham Berry\, Leonidas Zourdoumis \nPowaqqatsi will play as part of Xstine Cook’s Artist in Residency This is Not My Culture at cSPACE Eau Claire Neighbourhood Hub. Cook will be working on her art during the screening\, and attendees are welcome to bring along a project they want to work on while watching and listening to the talk. \nFree screening of this movie is presented as part of Xstine Cook’s This is Not My Culture artist residency at cSPACE Eau Claire Neighbourhood Hub.

SUMMARY:This is Not My Culture – Watch and Work
DESCRIPTION:Watch and Work: Free screening of Koyaanisqatsi Godfrey Reggio’s classic 1982 film “Life Out of Balance” \nDrop in to watch Koyaanisqatsi “Life Out of Balance” an experimental classic film featuring a collection of expertly photographed phenomena with no conventional plot\, to a soundtrack by Philip Glass. The footage focuses on nature\, humanity\, and the relationship between them. \nDrawing its title from the Hopi word meaning “life out of balance\,” this renowned documentary/experimental film reveals how humanity has grown apart from nature.

DESCRIPTION:Watch and Work is a series of films and documentaries you can watch while artist Xstine Cook works on her Hub residency. Be welcome to bring along a project of your own. Please use the Eventbrite link to register. \nEvent 4: Monday September 11\n5pm: Watch and Work: Free screening of Koyaanisqatsi\, Godfrey Reggio’s classic 1982 film Life Out of Balance \n\n\n\nDrop in to watch Koyaanisqatsi “Life Out of Balance” an experimental classic film featuring a collection of expertly photographed phenomena with no conventional plot\, to a soundtrack by Philip Glass. The footage focuses on nature\, humanity\, and the relationship between them. \nDrawing its title from the Hopi word meaning “life out of balance\,” this renowned documentary/experimental film reveals how humanity has grown apart from nature. Featuring extensive footage of natural landscapes and elemental forces\, the film gives way to many scenes of modern civilization and technology. Given its lack of narration and dialogue\, the production makes its points solely through imagery and music\, with many scenes either slowed down or sped up for dramatic effect. \nRelease date: September 14\, 1983 (New York) \nDirector: Godfrey Reggio \nMusic composed by: Philip Glass\, Michael Hoenig \nSequel: Powaqqatsi \nCinematography: Ron Fricke \nKoyaanisqatsi will play as part of Xstine Cook’s Artist in Residency This is Not My Culture at cSPACE Eau Claire Neighbourhood Hub. Cook will be working on her art during the screening\, and attendees are welcome to bring along a project they want to work on while watching and listening to the talk. \nFree screening of this movie is presented as part of Xstine Cook’s This is Not My Culture artist residency at cSPACE Eau Claire Neighbourhood Hub.

SUMMARY:This is Not My Culture – Open Studio
DESCRIPTION:This is Not My Culture – Open Studio\ncSPACE Neighbourhood Hub \nArtist Xstine Cook invites you to contemplate the creative potential of plastic as she transforms diverted packaging material into a full body mask creature. \nBy touching\, manipulating\, and re-purposing plastic that was intended for a single use before being thrown to Earth to process over unknown millennia\, This is Not My Culture invites you to view this miraculous material not as waste\, but as an extraordinary resource. The globe’s frantic pace of plastic generation is at the crux of the fraught relationship between humans’ minds and hearts; our addiction to convenience\, vs the interconnectedness of all life. \nThe packaging materials for this residency were generated by Cook’s family’s normal consumption over the course of a year\, and will be prepared on site in the Hub\, where the mask will be imagined\, designed\, created and exhibited. Viewers will observe the repetitive\, meticulous process of creation\, and the slow reveal of the creature. \nOpen Studio\nWhenever the artist is working\, the space will be open. See schedule for confirmed times\, or drop by to see what’s going on. \nNote: Space will be closed: September 14-18 \nEvents and Happenings\nCheck out several community events happening as part of This is Not My Culture\, including Make-Your-Own Mask sessions\, Mapperz Bring Your Own HDMI Vol II projection mapping event\, Work and Watch movie nights\, Cabaret Jam puppet meet up\, a screening of the Bum Family’s film Pollution Solution\, a special National Day of Truth and Reconciliation screening of Gitz Crazyboy’s Peace Pipeline\, and an exhibition of This is Not My Culture creations. \n*Some events request registration via Eventbrite. \n*Photo credit: Sean Dennie

SUMMARY:Solar Dyeing in the Park
DESCRIPTION:Alberta Craft is putting on a fun Interactive beginner workshop on Solar Dyeing with Lael Chmelyk. Learn how to extract beautiful colours from different plants using only the sun to drive the process. \nThis workshop will be an introduction to solar dyeing using foraged plants\, kitchen scraps and fabric remnants. We will discuss responsible and ethical harvesting for natural dyes\, as well as fabric preparation including scouring and mordanting. This workshop will spark your curiosity as well as give you the tools to continue this experimentation all year long\, using only the power of the sun to apply colour to cloth/yarn in natural materials of cotton/linen/silk/ wool. Once you try this technique\, everything has the potential to become dye – from your compost to spent blooms.
