]]>Erin Elizabeth is a conceptual artist and utilizes non-traditional materials such as cake and sprinkles along with gold leaf in order to explore questions about banality, celebration, and experiential value. Harry Sidebotham is first and foremost a painter. He engages in the tradition of painting, investigating scientific theories such as parallel dimension theory. They have two young children and a collaborative studio practice that assumes the identity, Elizabeth / Sidebotham.
Elizabeth / Sidebotham embraces the paradox presented by the intersection of a traditional domestic landscape and artistic productivity. The work reflects the sacrifices, challenges, freedom, and joy of parenthood. Fragility interplays with strength. Reverence replaces frivolity. The materials, forms, and modes of productions are infused with memory and sentimentality and exist in a state of premature nostalgia. There is profundity in the banal, but it is also spectacularly boring. Elizabeth / Sidebotham strives to capture this contradiction. More Information
Exhibition Dates: Sept. 27-Nov. 2
Opening Reception: Thursday, Sept. 27 from 5-7 p.m.
Artist Talk: Friday, Sept. 28 at 10 a.m.
I recommend taking a pretest to see where the areas of deficiency lie so that we can focus on those during the session. (There are workbooks available to students in the CMC in the Education Complex Building).

]]>Few Monolayer Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) to Engineer New Surfaces and Interfaces
Parag Banerjee, Ph.D.
Materials Science & Engineering
University of Central Florida
Abstract: Atomically precise modification of surfaces and interfaces with few monolayer materials leads to improved understanding and significant enhancements in properties, performance and reliability of heterogeneous materials and devices. This talk highlights the impact of few monolayer insulators, wide bandgap semiconductors and metals, deposited using atomic layer deposition (ALD) on a variety of surfaces and interfaces with direct relevance to electronic and photonic devices.
The first part of this talk deep dives into the process science of ALD in its early cycles. The nature and structure of few monolayer ALD films are highlighted. In particular, configurational state and entropy of adlayers during every half-cycle of ALD is exploited to exquisitely manipulate nucleation and growth of metallic Ru thin films.
In the second part of this talk, applied aspects of few monolayer engineering of surfaces and interfaces are discussed. Case studies included are the non-linear optical phenomena on Au-Al2O3 and Au-ZnO surfaces, high-performance photocatalysts for CO2 photoreduction, improved optoelectronic responses from surface passivated CuO nanowires and few monolayer Ta2O5 to improve the reliability of electrochromic windows.
Regardless of the application, ALD at its ultimate thickness limit holds true potential for surface and interface engineering. The control of this process appears to be remarkably simple and yet, has fascinating complexities that continue to push the boundaries of the discovery of new materials and concept devices.
Biography: Dr. Parag Banerjee is an Associate Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Central Florida. He received his B.S. in metallurgical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee in 1998, an M.S. from Washington State University in 2000 and a Ph.D. from the University of Maryland (advisor, Gary W. Rubloff) in 2011; both in materials science & engineering. At the University of Maryland, he was the recipient of the John and Maureen Hendricks Energy Fellowship and won the best graduate thesis award in materials science & engineering. From 2000 to 2006, Parag was a Process R&D Engineer at Micron Technology Inc., working on gate and capacitor dielectric reliability and developing advanced, front-end-of-line processes for high-k dielectrics using atomic layer deposition. In 2011, Parag was appointed as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at Washington University in St. Louis. Here, he set up a research program garnering strong industry and federal support for studying fundamental and applied topics in atomic layer deposition. He also received the Dean’s Excellence in Teaching Award for innovating experiential methodologies for teaching semiconductor process science to undergraduate students, while graduating 3 Ph.D. and 4 Masters students. Parag has over 50 high-impact publications and 8 U.S. and international patents. He is in the Program Committee of the International Conference on Atomic Layer Deposition and serves on the Executive Committee of the Thin Films Division at AVS.

The Safe Zone Advocates training is the second in the series and was created to further individual knowledge and understanding of LGBTQ+ issues. The training is geared toward helping attendees explore, identify, and expose cultural biases and acquire skills necessary for advocating for marginalized populations.
Participants who complete both trainings (LGBTQ+ 101 and Safe Zone Advocates) are designated as Safe Zone Advocates and can be identified by a Safe Zone placard.

“Fish Out of Water”
Inspired by the experience of coming out as a lesbian to her sorority sisters during her senior year at Vanderbilt, filmmaker Ky Dickens explores the Biblical passages used to condemn homosexuality in this informative yet entertaining documentary. Interweaving whimsical animation with enlightening interviews from both within the lesbian and gay community and as well with theologians from across the country, Fish Out of Water breaks down seven key passages from the Old and New Testaments - from Adam and Eve to Sodom and Gomorrah and the Purity Codes - while confronting the debate over translation and historical context that affect today's interpretations of the Bible.

Eat The Elephant has found widespread praise with Rolling Stone saying of the 12-track album, “Eat the Elephant is a moody, sensitive portrait of a band that decided to grow up and make a record that reflects where they are now as artists rather than trying to recapture the past,” the Los Angeles Times adding, “At times tense and minimal, at others ringing with anthemic rock choruses, the record is as sturdy and confident as any recent big-league rock effort” and Consequence of Sound declaring, “Eat the Elephant is the kind of reunion record that most bands would kill for.
A Perfect Circle’s current line-up is Maynard James Keenan (Tool, Puscifer), Billy Howerdel (Ashes Divide), James Iha (Tinted Windows, Smashing Pumpkins), Jeff Friedl (Puscifer, The Beta Machine) and Matt McJunkins (Eagles of Death Metal, The Beta Machine). Greg Edwards (Failure, Autolux) is filling in for James Iha on all announced A Perfect Circle shows.
