“If only you could see what I’ve seen with your eyes.” Roy Batty in Blade Runner (1982). |
The eye is a restless thing; marauding and fickle its wet lens takes in the world. But what if its glassy stare is turned in upon itself? |
I SEE YOU SEEING ME SEE YOU, German artist Kathrin Sonntag’s first major solo exhibition in Scotland at the Cooper Gallery, provides unsettling optical clues to an answer. |
Taking its visual cue from several visits Sonntag made to Lauscha, a small town in Germany famous for inventing the prosthetic glass eye, the exhibition explores the uneasy visual feedback that arises when our gaze meets its artificial double. |
Encompassing photography, film, sculpture and drawings Sonntag’s multimedia practice distorts, refracts, and fragments quotidian objects and behaviors to test the horizons of perception and consciousness with a desire to disrupt the act of seeing and to reveal the blurred line between the real and the fictitious. |
I SEE YOU SEEING ME SEE YOU presents a new body of works that consist of photography, slide projections and still life compositions. With uncanny correlations at its heart the works utilise the formal kinships humming over images, objects and the spaces in between to interrupt and untether the unconscious moment of perception. |
Objects are viewed through frames upon table tops; mirrors and their reflections create illusions of repetition and fresh oranges sit alongside stemmed glass eyes; the juxtaposing of similarities and differences, legibility and illegibility sabotage the optics of seeing, leaving the apparatus of the gaze caught in an endlessly intricate circulation. Sonntag seeks to suspend the moments of discord caught between expected and ambiguous realities, to create a stillness in which the audience might reflect on their own unconscious configuration of perception. |
Based in Berlin, Kathrin Sonntag has established an international reputation since 2006. She has presented solo exhibitions at major venues including White Light, Düsseldorf; Galerie Kamm, Berlin; Swiss Institute, New York; The Aspen Art Museum and Kunstverein Hamburg. Sonntag’s work has also been included in recent group exhibitions at the Kunstverein Hannover; the Third Moscow International Biennial for Young Art; Städtisches Museum Abteiberg, Mönchengladbach; and Sculpture Center, New York among others. Sonntag was awarded the Dr. Georg and Josi Guggenheim Foundation Prize in 2009 and a German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD, Deutscher Akademischer Austaunsch Dienst) research scholarship in 2011. She was also a recipient of the Swiss Art Award in both 2009 and 2013. |

Every CV is unique to that individual person and nobody else is going to have exactly the same education, qualifications and experience. However many people make the mistake of designing a CV that does not allow them to stand out from the bundle of other CV’s they will be competing with. In order to have the best possible chance of interview the following five factors should always be taken into account. |
Why should an employer choose you over the other two hundred applicants? What special ability do you have to bring to the position? Employers don’t just want to know how many computer packages you have used they also want to know how you can use this knowledge to make money for them by increasing efficiency in the office. |
2. Keep it simple but informative. |
An employer will only spend seconds glancing at your CV before he decides to either investigate it further or place it aside. That’s why it is imperative to make your CV visually attractive, easy to read and your attributes and experience should be clearly and concisely listed in a way that will make the potential employer want to interview you. |
While it is a laborious process to rewrite each CV to specifically target the audience you have in mind this is the most effective method of getting an interview. A little bit more effort now really does pay dividends in the longer term. |
The importance of proofreading your CV many times and making sure every word is spelt correctly cannot be overemphasized. As well as this make sure all your employment dates add up and that any contact email addresses, phone numbers or web addresses are still correct. Also never leave any period unaccounted for on your CV interviewers will ask what you were doing then. |
If you have gone on any courses, or have acquired additional skills even if it is just from voluntary or casual work always remember to add new information to your CV and perhaps you might need to remove older information that might now be no longer relevant. |

Astronomy and Astrophysics General Funds: Your gift can help provide scholarships for our students and fund research, travel to scholarly meetings, or areas that require urgent one-time support and other needs not covered by the University. |
The James Edward Keeler Fund for Excellence in Astronomy and Astrophysics: The fund, established in 2016, by long-time UCO staff researcher Arnold Klemola, supports current graduate students and helps the department attract outstanding applicants. The Keeler fund aims to help students from all backgrounds, particularly first in family to enter higher education. Klemola selflessly named the fund after James Edward Keeler, who established the technology for large reflecting telescopes and used the Crossley reflector at Lick Observatory to take the first deep images of the cosmos, revealing the universe of extragalactic nebulae. |
Other Worlds Laboaratory: The Other Worlds Laboratory (OWL) is a new research initiative that builds on UCSC's historic strength in understanding the planets of our solar system and planets around other stars (exoplanets). We are in an amazing era where thousands of exoplanets are being found nearby in our galaxy! Within the OWL we aim to understand how these planets form and evolve, using computer simulations, and how we can develop and utilize new instruments on telescopes to find and characterize these worlds. Directed by Professor Jonathan Fortney, the goal of the OWL is to put the Earth in context of the worlds of our solar system, as well as the amazing diversity of billions of worlds in our galaxy. |
The Whitford Prize: The Whitford Prize, named for the famous Lick astronomer and former director Albert Whitford, is awarded to the Astronomy and Astrophysics graduate student who, in the judgment of the faculty, attains the highest achievement in research, coursework, teaching, and the preliminary exam. The award includes a $500 cash prize, and is awarded on an annual basis. |
Mandel Lecture Series: This lively and engaging lecture series is designed for the general public. The series has hosted many prominent scientists, including British cosmologist and former President of theRoyal Society, Martin Rees, the first American female astronaut, Sally Ride, and UC Berkeley astrophysicist and contributor to the History Channel's "Universe" programs, AlexFilippenko. The generous support of private donors maintains the lecture series, bringing the message and excitement of astronomy to scientists and lay citizens alike, while presenting the work of external and UCSC scientists to the community. |
The Donald E. and Irene Osterbrock Leadership Fellowships: The Osterbrock Fellowships are the first privately endowed fellowships in our history. This prestigious award underscores our determination to attract, train, and mentor the world’s finest graduate students in astronomy and astrophysics, and to cultivate the skills that will enable them to become the nation's future leaders in their field, as well as in science in general. |
The fellowships honor two outstanding individuals. The eminent American astronomer Donald Osterbrock pioneered the study of gaseous nebulae, helped to discover that the Milky Way is a spiral galaxy, originated the classification scheme for active galactic nuclei, and served as one of Lick Observatory’s most influential directors. Don was a gifted teacher and advisor, and his doctoral students now comprise a significant portion of America’s astronomical leadership. His wife, Irene, worked tirelessly to help establish the UCSC Library’s Mary Lea Shane Archives of the Lick Observatory, which serve as a world-renowned repository of U.S. astronomical history. |
Private donors are encouraged to support these very special fellowships, which will facilitate UCSC's on-going leadership in research and education in the field of Astronomy and Astrophysics. Our faculty members themselves are pledging generously to match each private gift, dollar for dollar, to hasten establishment of this worthwhile tribute to leadership, past and future. |

PIONEERTOWN – A local advocacy group is working to keep wind turbines out of what it says is a culturally and biologically significant area. |
Save Our Desert, a coalition aiming to stop Element Power’s efforts to put industrial-scale wind turbines in the undeveloped Black Lava and Flat Top Mesa buttes of Pipes Canyon and Pioneertown, is raising money to identify petroglyphs in the areas currently being tested for wind levels. |
Element Power began placing wind-testing devices on the mountaintops more than a year ago, to the surprise of residents. The devices are precursors to the company’s proposal for a 100-megawatt wind-energy project. |
Save Our Desert held its second annual fundraiser Sunday, raking in just over $3,500 to pay for archeological surveys and reports to send to agencies with jurisdiction over the area. |
It felt appropriate to organizers that preserving Pioneertown’s iconic desert landscape should be held at one of the most iconic desert locales, Pappy & Harriet’s. |
“We felt the event was a success,” Frazier Haney, an organizer and spokesman with Save Our Desert, said by phone Monday. |
The coalition raised money through a silent auction of local artists’ works. |
The group needs about $5,000 to get the appropriate studies and documentation completed. Haney said members have been raising additional money with a weekly farmers market booth. |
Haney said the buttes are well-known cultural sites that need to be recognized by the Bureau of Land Management and the county. |
Doing so would limit construction of wind turbines or infrastructure to transmit electricity in that area. |
So far, the wind-energy developer has applied for a permit to test the wind and has placed two meteorological towers on the buttes, according to Haney. |
Cycling by nature is repetitive, requiring being in a fixed, and often quite flexed position, for long periods of time. Mobility, strength and stability are therefore crucial to not having to compromise on position and to generating maximum power. Trunk control and strength through the abdominals and obliques is therefore essential to holding a good posture on the bike, which in turn helps with efficiency – if you’re not stable in your core it doesn’t matter how strong your legs are, you’re going to be rocking around and wasting energy. |
Strength conditioning programmes are also important. You lose strength quickly when you haven’t ridden for a while – something that tends to happen a lot over the winter – but strength conditioning helps minimise the loss of riding miles. Alongside that, stretching is important for mobility and flexibility, helping recovery and regeneration, a kind of general maintenance really. |
Having a programme that incorporates these things alongside your normal riding timetable will therefore be beneficial for both performance and injury prevention. For example, look to incorporate two or three strength and conditioning sessions into your week, on the days when you’re not riding. Then look to do 10 minutes of stretching either side of a ride or session, though I don’t advise you do hard stretching after exercise, as you don’t want to inflict more damage on the muscles you’ve just been working. |
A programme of 12 weeks is optimum, but you’ll see improvements in four to six weeks, or with some exercises even sooner. Some things like muscle lengthening can take longer, but as with everything perseverance will pay off. |
So what are you waiting for? Give us a call to make an appointment with John or Phil Smith to ensure you’re fighting fit for spring! |

Yes, by now we all know that YouTube finally supports the new and exciting HTML5 video which allows for video playback without using Adobe Flash. While this seems like a good news in the sense that we no longer have have to rely on Adobe's Flash to watch our daily dose of YouTube videos, there is something dark and dangerous lurking underneath. |
This has to do with the video codec specification of HTML5 or rather the lack of it. While HTML5 has defined the new standard to include flashless video, it does not specify what video codec should be used as the standard. As a result of this sites like YouTube and Vimeo have implemented HTML5 support with the proprietary H.264 codec rather than the open source Ogg Theora codec. |
The danger is that if giants like Google put its weight behind H.264, everyone is likely to start using that codec, just like Vimeo did, and before anyone know, it can very well be the standard. However if H.264 does become the standard, it will go against everything that the internet has been built upon. |
Talking about licensing, it is also worth looking at the licensing that comes with H.264. In many countries, it is illegal to use H.264 without license from MPEG-LA. The license is required to both use or distribute H.264 encoded contents. However, H.264 is currently in its early stage and no licensing fee is required to distribute H.264 contents free to the viewer over the internet. |
The licensing of H.264 changes year to year. Although it is free to broadcast it over the internet right now, the current license is valid only till the end of 2010 and MPEG-LA could very well start demanding a licensing fee from the next license. |
We can also take clue from history to see what happened with similar circumstances in the past. We can take a look at what happened with GIF and MP3 in the past. |
In the 1990's GIF was widely used over the internet although it was patented by Unisys. In August 1999, Unisys changed its licensing terms to require the payment of a one-time licensing fee of $5000-$7500 to use GIF. Imagine having to pay $5000 just to use an image. |
Another case is with MP3. Before 2002, MP3 has a very liberal licensing which does not ask for any licensing fee for desktop software mp3 decoders/players that are distributed for free over the internet for personal use. This liberal licensing created what is known as the network effect. After the network effect, they changed the pricing. |
Something very similar could happen with if H.264 becomes the standard HTML5 video codec. |
We have talked about the potential impacts that the license of H.264 could have. However, it would not be fair to Google (or YouTube) if we do not take into consideration the performance of H.264 in comparision to the open-source Ogg Theora. To be fair to Google, this was one of the main considerations that they considered considering the amount of video that YouTube serves to everyone. |
If [YouTube] were to switch to Theora and maintain even a semblance of the current YouTube quality it would take up most available bandwidth across the internet. The most recent public number was just over 1 billion video streams a day, and I've seen what we've had to do to make that happen, and it is a staggering amount of bandwidth. |
Using a simple test case I show that Theora is competitive and even superior to some of the files that Google is distributing today on YouTube. Theora isn't the most efficient video codec available right now. But it is by no means bad, and it is substantially better than many other widely used options. By conventional criteria Theora is competitive. It also has the substantial advantage of being unencumbered, reasonable in computational complexity, and entirely open source. People are often confused by the correct observation that Theora doesn't provide the state of the art in bitrate vs quality, and take that to mean that Theora does poorly when in reality it does quite well. |
All that we can say now is that Theora has come a long way and although it may not be superior to H.264, it is certainly competitive. |
What about on the browser front? |
On the browser front, Apple's Safari supports only H.264, Google Chrome supports both Theora and H.264 while Opera and Firefox supports only Theora. Internet Explorer does not support either of them. |
Chrome's support of Theora probably means that Google has not entirely closed the door on Theora. Even YouTube's current implementation of HTML5 video is an experiment. So, there is no telling that Google could very well go with the open source Theora in YouTube as well. |
