Wellgate Shopping Centre
Level 2, Space 5
Dundee, DD1 2DB
NEoN is delighted to be working with Dundee based artist and curator Saoirse Anis to bring you the first workshop in our Change:Debate series addressing the work that must be done by us, together with Dundee’s many creative institutions to champion, support and nourish the work of artists of colour.
This workshop will be led and delivered by PoC artists, makers and activists who work in the digital sector to discuss their practice, share their experience of the industry and lead a dialogue about the vital challenges it must overcome.
Delivered and guided by Jazmin Morris, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley, and Shay Thompson, the day will take the form of hands on activities, stories, discussion and drawing up suggested routes for future development. The space will be safe but challenging and a place for listening but for being heard, a place for growth and change.
Programme for the day
Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley 10:00am-12:00pm
Shay Thompson 12.30pm-1.30pm – Talk – We’re talking about Diversity all wrong
Jazmin Morris 2:00pm-5:00pm – workshop – Redesigning representation in games
Some laptops will be available but please do bring one along if you can.
About the Artists
Saoirse Anis is a Dundee-based artist and curator. She takes delight in exploring the relationships between materials, memories, and the essential movement which runs through everything. Interested in the value of empathy, she has recently been thinking about personal therapeutic processes, and how this relates to the ways we share our vulnerabilities with others. She is interested in the potential that lies in creative collaboration, and the extent to which it can nurture and inspire us, both personally and politically.
Jazmin Morris is a Creative Technologist. Her personal practice focuses on the complexities within simulating culture and identity through virtual games and experiences. Technology is used as a creative toolset to respond to predetermined ideologies and cultural and political theory. Jazmin works across institutions around London focusing on alternative STE(A)M education for diverse groups of people. The workshop, Redesigning representation in games, will provide an insight into Jazmin’s conceptual practice as well as guide participants through basic game development concepts.
Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley is an artist working predominantly in animation, sound and performance to communicate their experience as a Black Trans person. Their practice focuses on recording the lives of Black Trans people, intertwining lived experience with fiction to imaginatively retell Trans stories. Spurred on by a desire to meet buried bodies like theirs, their work dreams of a Trans archive where Black Trans people could share their buried experiences.
Throughout history, Black queer and Trans people have been erased from the archives. Because of this it is necessary not only to archive our existence, but also the many creative narratives we have used and continue to use to share our experiences.
Shay Thompson is a video games presenter, currently working for McLaren, hosting panels and podcasts for Bafta and previously streaming for Xbox UK. Interests include romancing alien squadmates, spending too much time in the character creator and trying to pet all the cats. Shay is also the founder of Level Up Link Up, an event aiming to make the games industry a more diverse place.

Twitter sign was partially taken down as Elon Musk changes name to X
Now more of the sign has been removed (though it remains complete on one side & still reads as Twitter on the side it was removed) & an ugly X has been erected on the roof.
“the Department of Building Inspection, which regulates construction in the city, confirmed with The Standard it has opened a complaint and initiated an investigation into the erection of the X sign at 1355 Market St”

Almost ten years ago, I photographed Twitter’s sign on the day of the IPO

In 2014, there was a protest of the Twitter tax break

In December 2022, I covered a protest of Elon Musk at Twitter

Today, Musk tried to take down the Twitter sign as he changes the name to X.
It was stopped by SFPD & then axe signs & wayfinding (awesome xtraordinary effective) was allowed to remove the i leaving er & the Twitter bird on one side.
A SFPD officer said it was mistaken communication because Musk didn’t contact the owner.
But Musk knew he had to contact the owner because when he covered the W to have titter, the owner made him remove it.
You can see the W he painted white on the ground in a few photos. It didn’t work very well - people could still see the W.

Just for fun, I thought I'd show you the changing seasons at Hiawatha Park.

Saving the planet one step at a time
Have you heard of climate change?
Temperatures are getting higher. Storms are getting worse. Ice is melting and sea levels are rising. Portions of the coast of Bangladesh are likely to go underwater, lost forever. Millions will become homeless. The ability of the earth to sustain people is threatened.
Why is climate change happening?
Because people are burning up fossil fuels (diesel, petrol, natural gas, coal) at such rapid rates that future generations are now threatened.
Is it possible to slow climate change?
Yes, but we cannot continue to waste time. Carbon dioxide levels are rising rapidly. That is where the number 350 comes in. If we can limit CO2 in the atmosphere to 350 parts per million then we can avoid the worst of the harm to come.
Is there anything we can do?
No one person cam stop climate change but everyone contributes something significant. We can slow out own use of fossil fuels by walking and cycling and taking cycle rickshaws rather than using motorized transport. We can reduce our use of electricity. We can avoid, as a nation, burning coal (pure carbon) or selling it to others to burn. We can encourage the government to act to encourage reductions in fuel use and to encourage walking, cycling, and rickshaws.
This will mean making some changes. Fortunately most of those changes are likely to
increase rather than reduce our quality of life. Imagine being able to cycle safely in
Dhaka. Imagine the air being fresh and clean. Imagine children and youth being able to play in side streets. If we move our focus from cars to people, from traveling long
distances to accessing basic needs close to home, we can reduce congestion and all the misery it causes, We can have more time with family and for the other important parts of life.
Remember 350 is not just a number. It is not just an ideal. It is something we can all work to make a reality.

When the Garhim got close, he greeted them by saying "Hello, you are Joseph of Baeth and company, correct?" Stunned by this Joseph said "Aye...?" The man in blue replied, "Ah this is good, my apologies- I am Djorn Braag, champion archer from Garheim. I have come to stop you from going to Loreos Ultra.
Now Joseph became upset and replied, "What? Why shall I not continue onto Loreos Ultra? My ship has been moved there for my return."
"Yes I know," Djorn replied, "The problem is that Loreos Ultra is currently being sacked by Queen Galainir's troops, your ship is lost, ...for now at least"
"Damn!" yelled Joseph. "What do we do now?!"
NGO ‘Cooperation for Development’ has held round tables and discussion with
local citizens, farmers, women and youth in 5 mountain villages of Rasht
valley, Tajikistan. They raised the awareness on climate change threats for
local agriculture which based on glaciers water. As glaciers melt faster
the water reserves shorten. Both scientific evidence and peoples
observations witnessed that Tajikistani farmers need to take urgent
measures towards climate change adaptation and conservation of agricultural
biodiversity. Overall 200 people took part in the discussions.

Jackson is slightly obsessed with Hot Wheels that change color when you dunk them in hot or cold water. My sense is that a team at NASA was trying to develop some sort of heat shield for monkey astronaut suits when they accidentally came up with this technology. They then sold the patent to Mattel and have retired to Coral Gables or Banff and spend idle moments planning to volunteer at the Humane Society, once they're completely saturated with Internet porn.

DiGiambattista relinquished command to Col. Wilson Rutherford IV, during a change of command ceremony at Cooper Field. The two men had served together earlier in their careers as captains in the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division.

Hello, I am happy to offer the use of any of these images. I did not edit each one as carefully as I could so if there are any you would like to use I will edit and resend. I shot them RAW with nice equipment so the detail is great; much better than in these attached versions. Congratulations on the great event!-Scott
