Film studies as an academic discipline emerged in the twentieth century, decades after the invention of motion pictures. Not to be confused with the technical aspects of film production, film studies exists only with the creation of film theory—which approaches film critically as an art—and the writing of film historiography. Because the modern film became an invention and industry only in the late nineteenth century, a generation of film producers and directors existed significantly before the academic analysis that followed in later generations.

Taming Information Overload through Curation 2012 PresentationK3 Hamilton
Presentation for Advancing Learning Conference 2012
Description: Mitchell Kapor, founder of the Electronic Frontier, wisely said that “getting information off the internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant. Our instant-on, hyper-connected world provides us with millions upon millions of pieces of data anytime and anyplace in a simple click. But how do we sort through all that data to reach the relevant information we seek? Can we trust the “Googlebot” to give us or our students the best of what’s there? How do we tame that massive overload of data?
The most valuable resource we have is community and shared resources. This workshop will introduce you to the curation community and the tools you’ll need to become an effective curator. Some of the tools discussed will be twitter, delicious, facebook, pinterest, tweeted times, paper.li, curated.by, scoop.it, zite, and flipboard.
Presenter: Karen Hamilton, Professor/Online Coordinator, School of Liberal Arts & Sciences, George Brown College.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Cultural Impact of The Simpsons
1.
2. “His drawings are full of
expressions of angst, social
alienation, self-loathing, and
fear of inevitable doom.”
Wikipedia
3. The original Simpsons were created as short
“bumpers” for the Tracey Ullman Show
Began on April 19, 1987
A satirical look at American family life
4.
5.
6.
7. The Simpsons shows the rich as
greedy, politicians corrupt, police officials
stupid, parents easily manipulated, children
devious.
Despite the dysfunctional family antics by the
end of each show, they support each another
and stick together.
8.
9.
10. " This simultaneous parody/homage is indicative
of the desire to both belong to and make fun of a
cultural elite, to be both of and above
television, an unstable relationship with
intellectual culture that is also inherent in cultural
studies itself...The Simpsons uses satire not only to
undermine the pretensions to cultural significance
of various texts from both "high" and "low"
culture, it includes itself as part of that mockery.”
.John Alberti, Leaving Springfield
11. “No one escapes satire in the program, which is vital for
its ultimately uplifting message: we're an absurd species
but together we make for a wonderful world....The
satirical cartoon world is essentially a philosophical one
because to work it needs to reflect reality accurately by
abstracting it, distilling it and then presenting it back to
us, illuminating it more brightly than realist fiction can.”
Julian Baggini, The Simpsons as Philosophy
12. Call me
Influential!
2002
2002 Bart Simpson
named to the
Time 100, the
publication's list
of the century's 100
most influential
people--the only
fictional character on
the list.
13. “It was the first really self-
conscious product of
television, not just flirting
with the conditions of its
own existence but actually
poking around in
them, risking self-
annihilation. Like all
excellent cultural product, it
found its audience by
creating it.”
Mark Kingwell, Professor of
Philosophy, University of Toronto
14.
15. Since the beginning, The Simpsons has
been recognized for its perceptive political
satire. The Simpsons have featured pointed
jibes at presidents and their policies.
16. In 2004, at ComicCon Al Jean revealed:
"We have a show where, to raise money, Springfield legalizes gay marriage. Homer
becomes a minister by going on the internet and filling out a form. A long-time
character comes out of the closet, but I'm not saying who.”
Bookmakers were soon taking bets on which character it would be.
Place your
Bets!
18. There's Something About Marrying: Episode 345, Feb 20, 2005
Marge Simpsons sister Patty Bouvier, came out of the closet.
Springfield legalizes same sex marriage to increase tourism.
Homer conducts dozens of marriage services.
19. German researcher, Erwin In het Panhuis, analyzed 490 scenes and 70 gay characters
in the show and concluded that the Simpsons has helped gay men come out because
of the positive portrayals of gay relationships in the series.
(http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/07/02/the-simpsons-gay-men-come-out_n_3533970.html )
20. While most TV series have avoided religion, The Simpsons
has used religious references in 95 % of its episodes.
(David Feltmate, “It’s Funny Because It’s True? The Simpsons, Satire, and the Significance of
Religious Humor in Popular Culture.”)
“ The Simpsons employs comedic devices that
represent (and undercut) almost all potential
perspectives on religious issues. Some see this
approach as fair-minded, some as a ratings-driven
cop-out, yet the show has always kept faith with its
mission to critique not only the failings of religion
but also those of its critics; moreover, while
invariably questioning and undercutting them, The
Simpsons airs pro-spirituality themes as no other TV
sitcom has ever done before.” Iain Ellis
21. Religious Teaching Tool?
The 1995 episode “Bart Sells His Soul” is often used in
sermons and Sunday schools as a teaching tool.
After selling his soul to Millhouse, Bart’s life becomes so
bad he can’t even laugh at “Itchy and Scratchy.”
Bart’s prayers are answered when Lisa retrieves the
contract.
23. Because of increased workload of
the full-length episodes, production
was subcontracted to a South
Korean animation studio.
Character and background layout is
done by the US domestic
studio, while tweening, colouring
and filming is done in Korea. and
filming is done by the overseas studio
24. In 2010 a 90 second subversive opening of "The Simpsons” ran. Created by UK political street
artist Banksy who didn’t like the outsourcing to South Korea, it shows Korean
sweatshops, oppressed Asian factory workers grinding out animation cells and merchandise in
a factory from hell. A panda bear hauls back-breaking loads and an sickly unicorn's horn is
reduced to a tool. The sequences fade to a 20th Century Fox logo.
Many asked, “Should The Simpsons be co-opting criticism of their show and making light of it?
25. Millions of Movie References

27. “The Simpsons created an audience for
prime time animation that had not been
there for many years…as far as I’m
concerned they basically reinvented the
wheel”
Seth McFarlane

care doesn't mean I
