SUMMARY:OLD TOWN TALKS: Breaking it down - the abstraction of encoding memories
DESCRIPTION:WHAT: OLD TOWN TALKS  –  Sydney Boutros from Behavioral Neuroscience at OHSU & New/Mixed Media artist Kit Carlton on genetics and memory \nWe did it! LEARN MORE at the link…\nMemory\, Poetry\, Brains\n \n \nWHERE: Floyd’s Old Town Coffee (& Brews!)\, 118 NW Couch St\, Portland\, OR 97209 \nWe did it! Wonderful talk\, art making\, audience and space! \n \n \n \n \n \nWATCH THIS SPACE: Post coming soon! \nWHEN: Tuesday\, October 15\, 6:00 – 8:00pm \n \nRemember Velo Cult?  \nLEARN MORE: Free Art & Science Talks \nWell\, thanks to Nicole Tignor\, we now have a fantastic new venue for FREE art and science collaborative events  –  in Old Town Portland! \n \nBrains and art both welcome at Floyd’s Old Town Coffee! \nProcessed With Darkroom \n \nThis is Our Story\, by Kit Carlton \nWhat is a memory? Memories make us who we are\, connect us with other people and shape everything about “us.” But how does an event\, an interaction\, an idea stick in our head (presumably forever)..? \n \nThe mechanisms in the brain that lead to actual memory formation – and our ability to recall these memories – are messy\, complex\, and unclear. A recent hypothesis that has taken everyone by surprise is the possibility that in order for a memory to be formed\, our DNA has to break into two pieces\, and fix itself\, essentially “writing” memories with our genes. \nLEARN MORE: Physiological Roles of DNA Double-Strand Breaks \nLEARN MORE: Activity-Induced DNA Breaks Govern the Expression of Neuronal Early-Response Genes \n \nKit Carlton \n“A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away.” \n― Eudora Welty \nHumans have long employed various modes of pictography and visual speech to encode and record our personal/cultural histories and memories. Traditionally\, poetry is considered one of the most effective vehicles for conveying and remembering these messages… \n \nKit Carlton (incorporating research images from Sydney Boutros) \nIf a poem is elementally a verbal painting\, can a painting be a pictorial poem? What about an abstract painting? Can a photograph be all three? Come find out as we explore our memories through poetry\, photography\, abstraction  –  and broken DNA. \n \n“Stoked and geeking-out to announce my partnership with @nwnoggin on a collaborative project/talk” – Kit Carlton \n \nKit Carlton \nPlay games\, test your memory\, and explore art and neuroscience at Floyds this fall! \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nView this post on Instagram\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nGetting really stoked and hyped over this event ya’ll! Bet you can’t tell\, huh? @dysney11 and I will be Breaking it Down—talking about the abstraction of encoding memories on 10/15. The event lasts from 6-8 and you can even hold a real human brain in your hands thanks to the swell folks over @nwnoggin ! I cannot wait! How freaking cool is that? If you can’t make the event please know that the work is up now and on view at Floyd’s Old Town Coffee @oldtowncoffeepdx until the end of October. But if you attend our talk you’ll get the real 411 on the work and how memories are made. Seriously come make some memories with us! Hope to see you then… . . . . . . . . . #nwnoggin #brainsandart #artbrains #sciart #neuroscience #scienceart #oldtowntalks #brainsarecool #allthingsbrain #allthingsart \nA post shared by  Kit S.
