	Computer Science Colloquium 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM From Personal Computers to Personal Robots – Challenges in Computer Science Education Nikolaus Correll University of Colorado Boulder ECCR 265 Thursday, October 4 3:30-4:30 PM Robots are computers that are extended by sensing, actuation, and communication capabilities. Similarly, devices that were previously limited to actuation or sensing alone, such as vacuum cleaners, lawnmowers, cars or everyday gadgets and household appliances are becoming robots by increasing their sensing and computation capabilities, eventually leading to a paradigm shift from “Personal Computers” to “Personal Robots”. This viewpoint positions “robotics” not as a new discipline, but as an extension of computer science and its sub-disciplines including artificial intelligence, natural language processing, computer vision, software engineering, security, and human-computer interaction, among others. The key challenges of a robotic system — not only from a research, but also from an educational perspective - are (1) that the dynamics and uncertainty of the real world require a shift from deterministic to probabilistic reasoning, (2) computing interaction with the physical world requires a deep understanding of its dynamics, and (3) that robots are systems-of-systems often consisting of hundreds of distributed, heterogeneous computing elements. While these challenges might require curriculum updates to almost all computer science sub-disciplines in the long run, specific “robotics” classes are needed that focus on the interface between the computational and physical world and let students experience real world dynamics, uncertainty, and complexity first hand. In my talk, I will describe a one-year introductory robotics course sequence focusing on computational aspects of robotics for third- and fourth-year students that addresses these challenges. Content learning and retention is assessed for a subset of students who successfully went through the proposed curriculum. All class materials as well as hardware, in particular a low-cost, highly articulated robotic arm developed for teaching advanced robotics concepts, are opensource and available online. Nikolaus Correll is an Assistant Professor in Computer Science at the University of Colorado. He obtained his Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering from ETH Zuerich, a Ph.D. in Computer Science from EPFL and worked as a post-doc at MIT CSAIL. Nikolaus’ research interests are multi-robot and swarming systems. He teaches “Introduction to Robotics” and “Advanced Robotics” to third- and fourth-year students. He is the recipient of a NSF and a NASA CAREER award. Hosted by Evan Chang

	Affective Labor, Ethnic Migrant Youth and the Precariat in Neoliberal China 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM A public lecture by Hai Ren, Assistant Professor of East Asian Studies at the University of Arizona. Prof. Ren will examine how ethnic minority migrant youth in China pursue work opportunities that involve the investment of affective labor. The paper examines how ethnic minority migrant youth in China pursue work opportunities that involve the investment of affective labor. I define affective labor as a two-fold process: as the management of feelings that serves to personalize impersonal commercial transactions and as the strategic deployment of feelings to produce individuals who are expected to advance the state’s neoliberal project of national development. I offer two case studies. The first focuses on ethnic migrant workers whose affective labor involves the performance of ethnic difference at the Chinese Ethnic Culture Park in Beijing. In this case, the workers’ investment of affective labor serves the purpose of national development not only by facilitating the self-development of rural-to-urban migrant workers, but also the self-development of consumers who are taught to embrace cosmopolitan values by learning to appreciate cultural diversity. The second case study examines how China Central Television’s popular “Eastern Time and Space” program scorned the homeless ethnic youth in Wuhan who pretended to be poor college students and asked for donations to fund their education. The television program endorses entrepreneurial values but it differentiates between ethical and unethical deployments of affective labor. Both case studies, I argue, illustrate that affective labor is not simply a potentialsolution to the problems of youth underemployment and unemployment in China.Rather, the deployment of affective labor is also central to the state’s developmentalist agenda that aims to transform individuals into neoliberal subjects while building a “harmonious society” (hexie shehui). I conclude that a critical assessment of the relationships between affective labor, neoliberalism and the state helps toreveal an emerging new politics of the precariat, the successor of the proletariat.
	Affective Labor, Ethnic Migrant Youth and the Precariat in Neoliberal China 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM A public lecture by Professor Hai Ren, Associate Professor of East Asian Studies at the University of Arizona. Professor Ren's talk will focus on two cultural sites: the Chinese Ethnic Culture Park in Beijing, and China Central Television's popular program“Eastern Time and Space.”It will explore how these cultural sites shape the subjectivities of ethnic minority migrant youth in China, in order to align them with the state's project of neoliberal national development.

In addition to being the most prolific guitar composer of his generation, Dyens has also released several volumes of arrangements. Ranging from Jazz standards to Brazilian folk music, these arrangements have made their way into the repertoire of both professional and amateur guitarists.
