Ideas of community and nation have a complicated set of relationships. For some, communities are nations.
For historian Benedict Anderson, nations are synthetic constructions that we come to imagine as communities through various systems of exchange that include public meeting places and the reproduction of images and narratives.
On Communities and Nations examines Anderson’s concept of imagined communities in relationship to the emergence of First Nations printmaking practices in the late twentieth century.

Advances in science and healthcare have allowed people with life-threatening illnesses to live longer and healthier lives. But the outcomes of treatment are uncertain and the experience of living in-between a promise of prolonged life, and the possibility of illness reoccurring and progressing, is often misunderstood.
Thirty-two people diagnosed with a life-threatening illness (cancer, chronic kidney disease, and HIV/AIDS) volunteered for an interview. They were asked to identify a symbol that represented their experience with their diagnosed illness. Symbols of living in-between: Re-stor(y)ing life within life-threatening illness is the collective effort from a team of nurse researchers seeking new insights into the experiences of individuals that live with the uncertainty of a serious illness.
This exhibit shares a selection of these important images and stories with the public. Symbols range from personal objects and medical documents to favourite music, clothing, and family photographs. Narratives from the participants and poems produced by the research team accompany the stories of these individuals living with a life-threatening illness. The symbols and narratives highlight how living with a life-threatening illness is much more than a “medical story.”
Symbols of living in-between: Re-stor(y)ing life within life-threatening illness is a travelling exhibit and will be displayed in multiple spaces from galleries to healthcare facilities. This exhibit is part of a larger study entitled Re-stor(y)ing Life Within Life-Threatening Illness. The Re-stor(y)ing project has been funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR). KRESCENT and the Kidney Foundation of Canada has provided additional support.
This free exhibit runs from April 13 to June 4, 2012, at the Maltwood Prints and Drawings Gallery in the McPherson Library (Lower Level) at UVic. Gallery follows regular library hours.

Director: Phyllida Lloyd UK, 2011, 106 minutes; PG
Cast: Meryl Streep, Jim Broadbent, Richard E. Grant
ACADEMY AWARD WINNER! BEST ACTRESS – MERYL STREEP
Is there anything that Meryl Streep can't do as an actress? One can only marvel at her virtuoso performance as Britain's Margaret Thatcher, the hard-ass ultraconservative who became the first woman prime minister, from 1979 to 1990.
Iron Lady – a kind of female spin on King Lear – is framed with Thatcher – weakened by old age – remembering her youth, her fight for political prominence in a world of men, her marriage. The sharp economy of Phyllida Lloyd's direction allows the incontestably great Streep to take impressionistic snatches of a life and build a woman in full. This is acting of the highest order. –Rolling Stone

Speaker: Azadeh HajiHosseini
Previous studies have indicated that, electroencephalographic (EEG) oscillations in the theta frequency range distributed over frontal regions of the scalp reflect a mechanism for error processing. We investigated an alternative hypothesis that such theta oscillations reflect processing of infrequent task-relevant events (not errors per se), which is manifested in the time-domain as the N200 component of the event-related brain potential (ERP). We also showed that N200 and theta energy dissociate in manifesting these cognitive processes so that N200 was a good measure for reward vs. no-reward conditions whereas theta was primarily sensitive to unexpectedness.
