SUMMARY:IBM Watson/Bluemix Cognitive App Development Platform at CITRIS
DESCRIPTION:Come learn how you can rapidly prototype & build cognitive apps in the cloud using IBM tools – specifically IBM Watson Services on the Watson/Bluemix platform. Students should bring their laptops and can work on Bluemix themselves during the demo. Start a free Bluemix trial before the event to work along with the presenters: ibm.biz/bluemixsv. Lunch will be provided\, and the event will be broadcast live at http://video.citris.berkeley.edu/playlists/webcast/. \nRegister to Attend \n  \n“Navigating the Cognitive Era:  IBM point of view on the growth of data and the role of cognitive computing to assist in making sense of that data”\nRichard Rodts – Program Director\, IBM Watson Academic Programs \nRichard Rodts is the Program Director for Watson Academic Programs at IBM. He has responsibility to work with executives in education to include cognitive technology in the classroom and promote entrepreneurship among student groups. Prior to joining IBM\, Richard worked in director level positions within the Business Analytics space.  In his current role\, Richard leads a team that evangelizes the importance of utilizing cognitive computing to transform how we engage with technology and in turn create meaningful change in our businesses as well as society. \n“A Cognitive Journey through the Lens of IBM Watson”\n Armen Pischdotchian – Watson Academic Partners: technical mentor for universities \nA world of sensors and devices that communicate with one another often analyzing data and predicting futures\, are about to meet cognition; where systems understand\, reason and learn. Come for a journey beginning from the Jeopardy! days to API services that employ neural network deep learning technologies as we usher in the cognitive era. Armen currently mentors university faculty and conducts enablement sessions for both IBMers and partners pertaining to the Watson Ecosystem offerings. During the past three years at Watson\, Armen has consulted and deployed various Watson solutions around the world. \nHANDS-ON workshop: Building apps augmented with cognitive services\nIn this demo you build an app and bind it to three services: Personality Insights\, Question-Answer and AlchemyAPI service. This workshop tells the story of frustrated author who is under stress. Using character traits revealed by PI service\, the analyst poses health related questions to the Watson health corpus and\, at the same time\, extracts keywords (AlchemyAPI) from the returned answers that may prompt the analyst to query further using the DeepQA pipeline (QA service). \n_____________________________________ \nThis program is open to students across all disciplines to learn about this project. In addition\, we will discuss the CITRIS Mobile Apps Challenge\, which will be accepting applications in January for Spring 2016 challenge.  This challenge encourages teams of students from UC Berkeley\, UC Davis & UC Merced to develop innovative mobile applications for today’s most pressing societal needs. Through a rigorous 3-month process\, students will design\, prototype and pitch their ideas. The challenge will culminate in a selection process with prizes\, along with a Demo Day to showcase the student’s projects. Learn more about the challenge here.

SUMMARY:100 Years of Robot Art and Science in the Bay Area
DESCRIPTION:100 Years of Robot Art and Science in the Bay Area\nde Young Museum\, San Francisco\nFree music\, cash bar\, kids welcome.\n6:30-9pm\, Friday\, 20 Nov\, 2015\nhttp://deyoung.famsf.org/calendar/friday-nights-de-young-25 \nCo-Sponsored by the CITRIS “People and Robots” Initiative:\nhttp://robotics.citris-uc.org \n  \n Friday Nights at the de Young are after-hours art happenings that include a mix of live music\, dance and theater performances\, film screenings\, panel discussions\, lectures\, artist demonstrations\, hands-on art activities\, and exhibition tours. Local artists conduct drop-in workshops\, debut new commissions\, display their art in the Kimball Education Gallery\, and take part in conversations about the creative process. The café offers a delicious prix-fixe menu and specialty cocktails\, and the Hamon Tower observation level is open\nuntil 8 pm. \nThis event\, in conjunction with the 100 year anniversary of the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition\, is being organized by Kevin Chen from the de Young in collaboration with Ken Goldberg from UC Berkeley and Alexander Rose from The Long Now Foundation. \nThe evening will feature in the Theater a series of 10-minute conversations between local artists\, researchers\, writers\, and curators\, with artist Jenny Odell as “visual jockey” providing live images: \nIntroduction – Ken Goldberg\nZander Rose & John Markoff\nJohn Markoff & Terry Winograd\nTerry Winograd & Josette Melchor\nJosette Melchor & David Pescovitz\nDavid Pescovitz & Karen Marcelo\nKaren Marcelo & Kal Spelletich\nKal Spelletich & Catharine Clark\nCatharine Clark & Tim Roseborough\nTim Roseborough & Dorothy Santos\nDorothy Santos & Pieter Abbeel\nPieter Abbeel & Zander Rose \nDiscussing robots\, art\, and science from historical and contemporary perspectives. The full exhibition reassembles more than 200 works by major American and European artists\, most of which were on display at this defining event (http://deyoung.famsf.org/exhibitions/jewel-city-art-panama-pacific-international-exposition). The 1915 Pan Pacific International Expo was the San Francisco world’s fair that celebrated the opening of the Panama Canal and the city’s reconstruction following the great earthquake of 1906. The grand exposition covered 76 city blocks and boasted national and international pavilions showcasing innovation\, industry\, and the arts. Taking inspiration from the themes of innovation\, technology\, and futurism at the fair\, we are embracing the idea of robots\, art\, and science from historical and contemporary perspectives.
