viagra use in children will be hosting an ‘inspired by London 2012′ event at the CCA in Glasgow, host city for ICSEMIS 2012.

The event is FREE to attend and open to all. It will bring together a scientist, an artist and a philosopher (me) in conversation about the way in which athletes bodies and minds are being transformed by technology.

Today, elite sports find themselves in increasingly unchartered waters. More than ever before, athletes are using technology to optimize their biology for performance and many of their methods are not even tested for by the authorities. From genetic tests for sport performance to the use of superhuman prosthetic enhancements, this subject reaches parts that present-day anti-doping rules cannot reach.  These technologies have changed elite sports, as we know them, but the next decade promises even more of an overhaul to what we think being good at sport means.  As we approach the London 2012 Games, this debate will consider the ethical implications of new technology in sport, asking what distinguishes the cheat from the innovator. We will ask whether the debate about the ethics of athletic performance is all but over, as the winners’ podium makes space for the transhuman athlete.

Going beyond the familiar debate about doping and anti-doping, this debate will consider how far biology has been pushed by technical systems and what Jacques Ellul called the technological society. It will include Dr Yannis Pitsiladis, who works with the World Anti-Doping Agency on genetic technologies and live artist Francesca Steele (pictured here in an image by Simon Keitch www.simonkeitch.com), who became a body builder as part of her most recent performance work.  Along with me, we will consider how we ought to regard the future of sport and how it will function in an era of transhuman enhancements.

The event is presented by the University of the West of Scotland as part of ‘Knowing Sport: The science behind the medals’, a public engagement initiative of ICSEMIS 2012 (Glasgow) supported by PODIUM and Research Councils UK, Inspired by London 2012′.

With the 2012 Games now fast approaching, this year’s conference will explore opportunities presented by the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games to re-vitalise curricula to enhance student learning opportunities and experiences, and to encourage student engagement with learning. Keynote speakers are currently being confirmed and they will be chosen to reflect different perspectives of the Games which can stimulate developmental initiatives, for example:

• “Capturing Olympic and Paralympic Values in the Curriculum”
• “Critical examination of the Olympic Legacies aspired to by the Games organisers – their relevance in the HLST group of subjects and in HE generally”
• “Olympic and Paralympic Research and its implications for curriculum development”

Workshop sessions will provide opportunities to share developmental initiatives in learning, teaching and assessment in which the Games can be used to revitalise the learning experience of students and to engage them with learning. There will also be a display of posters describing further work in this area its impact.

During Vancouver 2010, C@tO will be working with W2 in Vancouver to run a series of debates and the Fresh Media conference on 22nd February. The focus for this conference will be to discuss how the media is changing and bringing about change via new, social and traditional forms of journalism.

Speakers are now being confirmed and will likely include a range of people from the Vancouver new media community, professional journalists covering the Games, international experts on Olympic media and students from the BC area. For more information, see below and link .

112 W Hastings, Vancouver, BC

The Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games are expected to draw 3 billion worldwide television and 70 million website viewers and will generate more wireless content than any previous Olympics. With an explosion of social media tools in the hands of Olympic fans, and pervasive reporting by citizen journalists and bloggers will social media have its journalistic coming out party this February?

viagra use in children

With thousands of media makers and storytellers unaccredited by VANOC and the BC government’s media centre, how can the IOC control the message and hand exclusivity to its investor brands? Sport and culture fans will undoubtedly flood online platforms with their own Olympic messages, and cultural festivities and Vancouver’s homelessness issues could gain prominence with traditional winter sports stories. Beijing 2008 failed to uphold pledges for an open media environment, so what will London 2012 learn from Vancouver’s experience with NBC expecting to lose $200 million, and Canwest under creditor protection?

The conference features a keynote from , author of ‘Genetically Modified Athletes’ (2004) and the forthcoming book ‘A Digital Olympics: Digital Games, Ethics & Cultures’ (for The MIT Press), and panels with senior journalists and industry watchers from the USA, UK, Canada, and elsewhere. An afternoon unconference program provides open space for participant led-workshops with an added emphasis on practice and a summary of the first Olympic week.

The conference also brings people face-to-face for networking and sharing tips on theory, practice, legal and operations. W2 will webstream to reach viewers outside Vancouver. The day wraps with a Cinq à sept reception and evening party with Vancouver artists and DJs.

Sure to sell-out, registration opens January 28, and is free for for the W2 Culture + Media House.

Speakers

Maurice Roche

‘Putting the London 2012 Olympics into perspective: The challenge of understanding Mega-events’

The London 2012 Olympics is a complex and multi-dimensional event. Nevertheless academic, policy-making and public discussions are likely to be dominated by changing assessments of the balance between its costs and its benefits, assessments which are likely to be informed by versions of an economic perspective. This brief presentation suggests that the future research and inquiry into this event needs to go beyond the economic. It needs wider perspectives, which would aim to recognise, in addition, the event’s political, cultural and media dimensions.  With this in mind the field of the sociology of mega-events is discussed, in particular the analysis given in ‘Mega-Events and Modernity’ (Maurice Roche, 2000, Routledge). Based on this it is suggested that a perspective on and  study of the 2012 Olympics as a media event would be particularly interesting and relevant.

Maurice Roche is Reader in Sociology at Sheffield University. He was Director of Sheffield University’s interdisciplinary research centre on European Social and Cultural Studies (ESCUS) 2003-6. Since the 1980s his research interests have been concerned with the sociology of popular culture and cultural policy, particularly focusing on major sport and cultural events, and  with the sociology of citizenship and European society. He is author of Mega-Events and Modernity: Olympics and Expos in the Growth of Global Culture 2000, Routledge;  and  Sport, Identity and Popular Culture 1998, editor, Meyer & Meyer Verlag, among many other works.

John Urry

The Olympic Games and Contemporary Tourism

John Urry will consider  some of the connections between the Olympic Games and contemporary tourism. He will argue that the Olympic movement is now a tourism movement and has little to do with individual sporting success or achievement. The competition is now about landing the Games and then delivering the Games so as to move that city closer to the centres of global power and status.

John Urry is Distinguished Professor of Sociology, Lancaster University. He is a member of the Council, Academy of Social Sciences and a former RAE Panel Chair. He is author of many books including The Tourist Gaze (1990/2002), Economies of Signs and Space (1994), Consuming Places (1995), Sociology Beyond Societies (2000), Performing Tourist Places (2004), Mobilities (2007).

Iain MacRury

Gift or Commodity?   Competing Conceptions of the 2012 Olympics

Iain MacRury will  examine competing conceptions of the London 2012 Olympics: as ‘gift’ and as ‘commodity’. He will argue  that for aspirations connected to improved social and cultural engagement, legacy and the sustainable regeneration of East London to materialise, it is important that governance and delivery of the Games sufficiently integrates two orientations: one to cost benefit input-out economism; the other, to a raft of progressive and developmental cultural values surrounding this mega event.

Iain MacRury is Director of the London East Research Institute and
the co-editor, with Prof. Gavin Poynter, of  Olympic Cities: 2012 and the Remaking of East London (Ashgate 2008, forthcoming) and co-author of A Lasting Legacy for London, a report for the London Assembly on prospects for a good Olympic legacy for London.

The Seminar will be chaired by Michael Rustin, Professor of Sociology at the University of East London, co-editor with Phil Cohen of London’s Turning: the Making of Thames Gateway. Ashgate March 2008.
