Beneath The Lab Coat Ep. 009: Audrey Limoges

Posted on by Posted in Beneath The Lab Coat, General
Dr. Audrey Limoges is Assistant Professor at the department of Earth Sciences at UNB Fredericton. She is specialized in the use of microfossils and other biogenic tracers preserved in marine sediments as tools for paleo-environmental reconstructions. Her work focuses on the interplay between climate, sea ice, ocean circulation and primary production. Through the study of the long-term response (centennial to millennial) of ecosystems to the natural variability of environmental parameters, her work aims to better predict the impact of ongoing climate and human-induced changes on marine ecosystems.

She joins me to talk about this multi-location research project using the “PhotoVoice” methodology to explore issues of interfaith dialogue.

Run For Your Life! – the psychobilly rock show of zombie sharks

 

On this week’s episode, we are almost scary but otherwise the same as usual while providing new tracks for your listening pleasure. See? I can provide. I even used the word “provide” three times in the past three sentences.

I have nothing further to say that’s witty, though I do recommend that you chase after these new releases because artists should be paid for their work. Do it! Provide!

 

Playlist:
Anything Left For Me – Double Fuzz
Wild Woman – Sleep Machine
Shaker Down – The Standstills
What For – The Joy Formidable
Dark Matter – Kilmore
Get In The Van / Industry Woes – We Hunt Buffalo
Skeleton – A Primitive Evolution

The Siren Song – Side Effects
Summoner – Striker (CAN)

The Lunchbox Interview: Alex Rioux (Fruit Machine)

Posted on by Posted in The Lunchbox

It takes a real artist to take the ugliness of the world and turn it into beautiful art, art that might still be ugly but has meaning.

My guest today is Alex Rioux, director and co-creator of Fruit Machine, a movement-based theatre piece looking at the attitudes, turmoil and impact of the RCMP’s questionable practices that targeted the LGBTQ+ community during the 50’s and 60’s. Alex joined me to talk about what inspired him to create this piece, the process of creating physical theatre, and the impact the material had on him.

Fruit Machine, along with another Solo Chicken Productions production, PIG, will be shown on November 1 at 7:30pm at the Open Space Theatre, 55 Whiting Road.
