The Civil Rights struggle of the 60s exposed him to the sham of US democracy and embodied the beauty of collective struggle. In 1965 he started the Vietnam Committee at Columbia University in NY and became a founding member of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) there. In 1967, David authored the first SDS pamphlet on US Imperialism and participated in the Columbia Strike of 1968. After about 5 years of organizing in the above ground movement, David joined the revolutionary underground, spending a total of 10 years engaging in building a clandestine resistance movement. On October 20, 1981, he and other comrades were captured at Nyack, New York, during an attempted expropriation by a unit of the Black Liberation Army working with white revolutionaries. During the expropriation attempt, a Brinks guard and two police officers were killed. Charged and convicted of felony murder, David is serving a 75 year (minimum) to life sentence. While in prison, David has been an inspiration, and acted as a mentor, to new generations of activists, including many from Montreal. Brave the winter’s cold and come out to learn more about David, the Weather Underground, and the continuing reality of political imprisonment in the United States. ********************************************************* ********************************************************* If you cannot make it to an event, copies of Love and Struggle are also available at the Concordia Co-op Bookstore (2150 Bishop Street, metro Guy Concordia), and online from PM Press (https://secure.pmpress.org/index.php?l=product_detail&p=370) and in Canada from Kersplebedeb Leftwingbooks.net (https://secure.leftwingbooks.net/index.php?l=product_detail&p=811).

Contact info@kersplebedeb.com ! ********************************************************* ********************************************************* More on Love and Struggle: “This story is from a true freedom fighter, a warrior against U.S. imperialism and for peace and justice.” —Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, author of Outlaw Woman: A Memoir of the War Years, 1960–75 "David Gilbert is a player. Like the Panthers of old, he and his comrades in Weather heard the symphony of revolutionary thought and action from around the world, and instead of simply applauding or critiquing, climbed down out of the balcony, jumped up on the stage of history, and banged out a tune." —Boots Riley, The Coup A nice Jewish boy from suburban Boston—hell, an Eagle Scout!—David Gilbert arrived at Columbia University just in time for the explosive Sixties. From the early anti-Vietnam War protests to the founding of SDS, from the Columbia Strike to the tragedy of the Townhouse, Gilbert was on the scene: as organizer, theoretician, and above all, activist. He was among the first militants who went underground to build the clandestine resistance to war and racism known as “Weatherman.” And he was among the last to emerge, in captivity, after the disaster of the 1981 Brinks robbery, an attempted expropriation that resulted in four deaths and long prison terms. In this extraordinary memoir, written from the maximum-security prison where he has lived for almost thirty years, David Gilbert tells the intensely personal story of his own Long March from liberal to radical to revolutionary. Today a beloved and admired mentor to a new generation of activists, he assesses with rare humor, with an understanding stripped of illusions, and with uncommon candor the errors and advances, terrors and triumphs of the Sixties and beyond. It’s a battle that was far from won, but is still not lost: the struggle to build a new world, and the love that drives that effort. A cautionary tale and a how-to as well, Love and Struggle is a book as candid, as uncompromising, and as humane as its author.

La lutte pour les droits civils dans les années 60 l'a exposé à la supercherie de la démocratie des USA et a incarné la beauté de la lutte collective. En 1965, il a fondé le Comité Vietnam à l'Université Columbia à NY et y est devenu un membre fondateur des Students for a Democratic Society (SDS ou Étudiants pour une société démocratique). En 1967, David a rédigé le premier pamphlet des SDS sur l'impérialisme des USA et a participé à la Grève de Columbia de 1968. Après environs 5 années passées à organiser dans le mouvement, David a rejoint la résistance clandestine, passant un total de 10 ans à s'impliquer dans la construction d'un mouvement de résistance clandestine. Le 20 octobre 1981, David et d'autres camarades ont été capturés à Nyack, New York, durant une tentative d'expropriation menée par une unité de la Black Liberation Army (Armée de Libération Noire) et des révolutionnaires blancs. Durant la tentative d'expropriation, un garde de la Brinks et deux policiers furent tués. Accusé puis condamné pour meurtre, David purge une peine de minimum 75 ans à la perpétuité. Alors qu'il était en prison, David a été une inspiration et a agi comme mentor à de nouvelles générations d'activistes, incluant plusieurs de Montréal. Bravez le froid de l'hiver et venez en apprendre plus sur David, le Weather Underground et l'emprisonnement politique qui continue aux États-Unis. ************************************************************ ************************************************************ Si vous ne pouvez pas assister à un de ces événements, des copies de Love and Struggle sont aussi disponibles au Concordia Co-op Bookstore (2150 rue Bishop Street, métro Guy Concordia), en ligne par PM Press (https://secure.pmpress.org/index.php?l=product_detail&p=370) et au Canada par Kersplebedeb Leftwingbooks.net (https://secure.leftwingbooks.net/index.php?l=product_detail&p=811).

Comme les Panthers d’antan, lui et ses camarades de Weather ont entendu la symphonie de la pensée et de l'action révolutionnaire autour du monde et au lieu de simplement applaudir ou critiquer, ont sauté en bas du balcon et sur la scène de l'histoire et ont improvisé une chanson. » —Boots Riley, The Coup Un beau garçon Juif de la banlieue de Boston (il a même été dans les scouts!), David Gilbert est arrivé à l'Université Columbia juste à temps pour les explosives années 1960. Des premières manifestations contre la Guerre du Vietnam à la fondation de SDS, de la Grève de Columbia à la tragédie du Townhouse, Gilbert était sur la scène : comme organisateur, théoricien et par-dessus tout activiste. Il a été parmi les premiers militants qui sont entrés dans la clandestinité pour construire la résistance à la guerre et au racisme connue comme le « Weatherman ». Il a été parmi les derniers à en émerger, en captivité, après le désastre du vol de la Brinks de 1981, une tentative d'expropriation qui a résulté en quatre morts et de longues peines de prison. Dans ce mémoire extraordinaire, écrit depuis la prison à sécurité maximale où il a vécu durant près de trente années, David Gilbert raconte l'histoire intensément personnelle de sa Longue Marche d'un libéral à un radical à un révolutionnaire. Aujourd'hui un mentor aimé et admiré d'une nouvelle génération d'activistes, il raconte avec un humour rare, avec une compréhension sans illusions, et avec une candeur peu commune les erreurs et les avancées, les terreurs et les triomphes des années soixante et au-delà. C'est une bataille qui est loin d'être terminée, mais qui n'est toujours pas perdue : la lutte pour bâtir un nouveau monde et l'amour qui porte cet effort. Un conte qui nous met en garde et montre comment faire aussi, Love and Struggle est un livre aussi candide, sans compromis et humain que son auteur.

The artist draws from various analogical methods of the darkroom such as the photogram, the chemigram and the Cliché Verre, and externalizes what usually remains invisible. In using such methods, Jérôme Nadeau complicates the mechanism of reproduction of the photographic medium and heightens the tension between image and material. The works shorten the distance between those two by revealing the analogue process through the subject matter. The works by Jérôme Nadeau confront the viewer to look at what is photography rather than looking through it. His photographs do not appear as windows onto a reality, but as reality themselves. Jérôme Nadeau is an artist, curator and editor living and working in Montreal. He recently completed a BFA in Photography at Concordia University. His work was featured in several group shows in galleries such as the Galerie Louise-Carrier, Push Gallery, FOFA Gallery, Les Territoires, the Société des Arts Technologiques, Espaces Jean-Brillant and the artist-run center Eastern Bloc. Céline Huyghebaert studies the mark for its potential for effacement as well as for material survival. By means of writing, drawing and silkscreen printing, the artist reflects on these traces and their imprint on the present in the form of affects. The exhibit Livre de Foie (Liver Book) questions the notion of identity tied to the materiality of the organic body. Through a series of prints, combining text and image where drawings on transparencies, China ink and silkscreen printing are superimposed, the artist invites the viewer to follow the protagonist through a search for her history. Livre de Foie is inscribed in a larger project by the artist that attempts to rebuild minute markers which make the memory, while also reflecting on the manner in which these markers wind around the present time to create a complex and hybrid time. Céline Huyghebaert couples writing with techniques such as drawing and silkscreen printing to create a dialogue between text and image in zines and artist books which have been presented at Expozine. She has also published short stories in collective books and in several magazines such as Moebius and Le Chameau, as well as articles and essays in several art magazines. As part of her PHD in études et pratiques des arts at Université du Québec à Montréal, she focuses on artist books and installations as places where the material memory of death is recorded. From March 17th to April 22nd, she is participating at the Biennale du Livre d'artistes du Quai de la Batterie in Arras (France).

LOCATION:Théâtre Plaza (6505 St-Hubert, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5439 DESCRIPTION:Depuis ses débuts, Total Crap présente les pires atrocités télévisuelles et cinématographiques provenant de partout dans le monde. Entre autres, il présente des extraits de remakes provenant de la Turquie qui font toujours le délice des spectateurs. Depuis très longtemps, la Turquie a pris l'habitude de refaire à sa manière des films avec un budget minuscule. Que ce soit Rambo, James Bond, Star Wars ou Jaws, aucun film n'a été épargné. Étant donné l'ampleur des dégâts, Total Crap a décidé de présenter un spécial remakes turcs le 3 février 2012 au Théâtre Plaza à Montréal. Pour cette occasion, vous verrez des extraits du Pulp Fiction turc, du Rocky turc, de 5 Rambos turcs, du Straw Dogs turc, du Young Frankenstein turc, du Batman turc, de plusieurs Superman turcs, des films d'action turcs, le Sylvester Stallone turc, des films de ninjas turcs, des scènes romantiques turques, le Yves Corbeil turc (pas vraiment), Cüneyt Arkin (acteur turc qui a joué dans au moins 300 longs métrages), des super-héros turcs, le Bruce Lee turc, de la bataille turque, beaucoup de trampolines et pas mal plus. Parce qu'on vous aime, on présentera en bonus un peu de Total Crap "normal", question de ne pas virer fou... Vous ne me croyez pas? Voici la bande annonce de la soirée: http://youtu.be/E9n3TVaZXu4 Ceux qui se demandent "kossé ça?": Total Crap rend hommage aux désastres télévisuels et cinématographiques sous forme de montage scratch vidéo. C’est plus de deux heures de la plus mauvaise, mais assurément la plus drôle et la plus divertissante des programmations que vous avez vues de votre vie ! Donc c'est à ne pas manquer le vendredi 3 février à 21h au Théâtre Plaza, 6505 rue St-Hubert.

A WGC Panel Discussion LOCATION:Moot Court and Atrium, McGill University (New Chancellor Day Hall, 3644 Peel Street, Montreal, Quebe URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5469 DESCRIPTION:What should you ask for when you option a feature film or a TV series? The Writers Guild’s basic contract (the Independent Production Agreement) covers many basic terms, but others aren’t codified, including lots of ways you could get paid on the back end, your right to write new material, and the crucial “Created by” credit in TV. Plus, what’s all this fine print? We’ve invited an agent who reps writers to talk about what writers can and should ask for; a producer’s lawyer to talk about what’s easy for producers to give and what’s hard; and a representative of the Writers Guild of Canada to talk about what contract terms end up in disputes. The panel will be moderated by Alex Epstein, who’s worked both sides of the table. Audience members will be able to ask questions. This event is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. It is aimed at professional, emerging and aspiring screenwriters, but filmmakers of all kinds may find it illuminating. The panel discussion will start at 7 pm sharp. (Doors open a half hour beforehand.) A presentation of the Writers Guild of Canada.

This year the band has showcased at NXNE, Sled Island, Pop Montreal and Halifax Pop Explosion. Their debut record, “Shouts” is out now! WOOoo WOOOOOOO! Honheehonhee has shared stages with Hollerado, Library Voices, Graham Wright (Tokyo Police Club), The Balconies, Royal Bangs, Dom, George Donoso (The Dears, High Dials), Sunfields, The Zolas, Royal Canoe, Paper Lions, Monokino, The Mark Inside, Michou, The Liptonians, Le Trouble, We Are The City, at venues all around Canada.

Is For Animal" http://honheehonhee.com/ Young Empires are a new Canadian 3-piece that has garnered international critical acclaim and since their inception in October 2009. NME Magazine compared Young Empires’ sound to the likes of The Killers, Arcade Fire, Yeasayer, and Foals. Defined by swirling synthesizer tones, fervent bass rhythms, and soulful guitar licks, Young Empires deliver fresh, yet distinguished dance tracks full of swagger, sexuality, and occasionally a little angst. A long with music blogs, Young Empires have also been well-received in the fashion world including a feature in Dazed & Confused Magazine. Their song “Glory of the Night” was released on Parisian fashion/music label Kitsune Maison 10. Another track “Against the Wall” has been featured on a viral fashion video for Nylon TV. Young Empires’ still young career highlights include international performances in London, Paris, Stockholm, New York City, Chicago, Miami, Bogota, Toronto, and Montreal. They’ve supported acts such as Jamiroquai, Chromeo, Dragonette, Japandroids, Girl Talk, Sleigh Bells, Jamaica, and Tanlines. Young Empires’ live performance at the NXNE Festival was named in the top 10 out of over 500 bands. The trio is also distinguished for their production skills and been commissioned to remix major label singles for Geffen and Kitsune Records. Their home demo recordings have charted on FM4 Radio (Germany) and two separate home demos have reached the top 15 on HypeMachine’s charts; a feat that earned them a spot on the HypeMachine showcase at CMJ this year. With their debut EP, Wake All My Youth, dropping in early 2012 on Pirates Blend Records Young Empires are poised to deliver on many reviewers predictions as one of the top new artists to watch. http://youngempires.com/ *************************************************** PRESENTED BY INDIE MONTREAL & TURBO PRODUCTIONS www.indiemontreal.ca http://twitter.com/indiemontreal Page: www.facebook.com/IndieMontreal Group: 'Montreal Indie Music Network' on Facebook www.turboproductions.info/ http://www.facebook.com/turbo.prod?sk=info 18+ CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 LAST-MODIFIED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 CREATED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20120209T000000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20120211T000000 UID:20120222T211517-5419@blogto.com SUMMARY:Deus Ex Mania Presents: THE PRESENTATION LOCATION:MainLine Theatre (3997 St. Laurent, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5419 DESCRIPTION:Deus Ex Mania is excited to bring you Vishesh Abeyratne's play "The Presentation"!

In the search for artificial we'll look closely for local foods, and what it can mean to be a locavore in an artificial world.

Growing up in the south of the city, John’s musical apprenticeship began in his high school days by playing in bands and regularly attending raves and jungle parties. The turning point came when he formed Imperial Recordings with DJ Lith, a stepping stone for John to excel in a field of production and management. The Infiltrata profile skyrocketed thanks to support from Boxed Agency UK and John hot-footed it across the Atlantic stepping into the European dance circuit. He was able to catch the attention of big players in the d&b community with releases on Cartel, Renegade Hardware, Tech Itch, Barcode, Cymbalism, and Uprising. Infiltrata has forged successful collaborations with heavy hitting d&b artists such as Spor, Limewax, Concord Dawn, Evol Intent and Mayhem. He also joined forces with Dave “Hochi” Weston, producing a telling remix of the massive Photek single “Sidewinder”. On the back this he later helped establish the TEKDBZ label, a subsidiary of Photek Productions. FLINCH http://soundcloud.com/flinchbass Los Angeles based beat maker Adam Glassco, better known as Flinch, is no stranger to the EDM world. A veteran producer who has progressed effortlessly from his beginnings in drum & bass and then electro, to current endeavors into jump-up and deeper, more melodic synth-based dubstep. The succession of sounds Flinch adheres to reflects a new breed of artists distinguished most by his ability to marry a massive, tear-out bassline with a melody that could serenade your grandmother, or create tracks that pair careful grit & distortion with catchy songwriting. A true tastemaker, Flinch consistently delivers a wide selection of cuts riding between the UK funky, club, moombahton, techno, garage, and dubstep genre lines. There is an undeniable buzz in the bass music world for Flinch?s recent productions on labels like SMOG and Trouble & Bass records, but most notably the massive “World On Fire,” which has often been championed by Skrillex, 12th Planet, and Datsik and is making a huge impact with audiences worldwide.

L'image montrait deux participants à la manifestation qui avaient dans leurs mains des affiches créées par divers artistes pour AIDS Action Now - l'un d'entre eux disait 'Fuck Positive Women' tandis que l'autre affiche, plus controversée, lisait 'I Party/I Bareback/I'm Positive/I'm Responsible'. La photo originale et la discussion qui s'en est suivie peuvent être visionnées ici: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=346260255395027&set=pu.229831313704589&type=1&theater Peu de temps après, un débat enflammé a vu le jour dans la section des commentaires tandis que des membres de la communauté revendiquaient diverses positions sur le barebacking, la prévention du VIH et la criminalisation. Bien que ce débat ait été engendré par une seule photo, le fil de discussion qui a suivi avec ses opinions divergentes illustre bien l’importance de cet enjeu. Tel qu'annoncé dans notre communiqué officiel la semaine dernière, ACCM offrira un environnement pour discuter des stratégies au coeur du combat continu de notre communauté contre le VIH et le SIDA. En tant qu'organisme voué à apporter un soutien à la communauté, ACCM est de l'avis qu'une discussion communautaire est la meilleure avenue pour mener à bien cet échange. Nous invitons tous ceux et celles préoccupés par la discussion en ligne à y prendre part. Nous vous invitons à vous joindre à nous ce jeudi 16 février de 6PM à 9PM, dans la salle 130 de l'édifice 2075 Plessis (premier étage, CCGLM). Cette rencontre communautaire est organisée par ACCM et sera facilitée par Marlo Turner Ritchie (anciennement de la clinique À deux mains). Cette discussion a ce qui suit comme objectifs potentiels : + Répondre aux inquiétudes des membres de la communauté face à des approches différentes et possiblement conflictuelles du travail de prévention du VIH + La création de liens productifs et de ponts entre les différentes générations d'activistes. + Réfléchir aux liens entre les stratégies de prévention, les méthodes de réduction des méfaits et les ramifications sur l'activisme lié à l'anti-criminalisation. + Éclairer les enjeux actuels liés à la criminalisation et formuler des stratégies par rapport à différentes avenues d'engagement. Les organismes communautaires et les membres de la communauté sont encouragés à venir. Les personnes intéressées peuvent préparer un énoncé d'une durée de 5 à 7 minutes portant sur les objectifs de cette discussion. Si vous comptez lire un énoncé à voix haute, nous vous prions de signaler votre intention aux organisateurs. La discussion sera bilingue et les participant.es sont libres de s'exprimer dans la langue de leur choix. ACCM fait tout les efforts possible afin d'assurer une traduction chuchotée. (Si vous êtes en mesure d'effectuer la traduction chuchotée durant cet événement, veuillez nous contacter.) Nous cherchons à réduire l’escalade et faire évoluer les positions de la colère vers l’engagement. Notre intention est d’offrir un espace sécuritaire favorisant le partage d’opinions et de sentiments. Nous espérons que cette conversation pourra créer le cadre de futures formes holistiques d’engagement en lien avec les enjeux ayant de l’importance pour la communauté VIH/sida. Plutôt que de s’arrêter au barebacking ou d’en faire un débat à thème unique, nous prenons position afin de poursuivre des conversations plus importantes, plus profondes et davantage porteuses de sens, conversations qui nous propulserons vers l’avant. Ceci est une occasion pour les personnes d’exprimer leur voix dans le réel plutôt que de les voir contenues dans un fil de discussion sur Facebook. Nous pouvons ensemble faire en sorte que cette conversation ait un impact réel dans le monde de la réalité. De connections en chair et en os entre personnes peut émerger quelque chose de vraiment fantastique. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Tuesday February 7th, 2012 ACCM staff members attended a demonstration against the criminalization of HIV and a photo taken at the demonstration was posted on our Facebook wall. The photo was of two participants at the rally holding signs made by several artists for AIDS Action Now, one that read ‘Fuck Positive Women’, and another more controversial that read ‘I Party/I Bareback/I’m Positive/I’m Responsible’. You can view the original photo and discussion thread here: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=346260255395027&set=pu.229831313704589&type=1&theater Soon after, a heated debate erupted in the comment thread as members of the community took positions regarding barebacking, HIV prevention, and criminalization. While this debate erupted from a single photograph, the comment thread that followed and the diverging opinions within it, illustrate the importance of these issues. As announced last week in our official statement (http://www.facebook.com/notes/aids-community-care-montreal-sida-b%C3%A9n%C3%A9voles-montr%C3%A9al-accm/a-message-from-accm-community-engagement-dialogue-action-points/347777068576679), ACCM will provide an environment to talk about strategies in our community’s continued fight against HIV and AIDS. As an organization deeply rooted in its supporting community, ACCM believes a community meeting is the best forum to do so. We invite all those invested in this conversation on-line to participate. Please join us Thursday February 16th from 6PM to 9PM in room 130 at 2075 Plessis (1st floor, CCGLM). The community meeting is hosted by ACCM and will be facilitated by Marlo Turner Ritchie (formerly of Head & Hands). This conversation has as potential objectives: + To address concerns voiced by community members regarding varying and potentially conflicting approaches to HIV prevention work + To create productive links and bridges between generations of activists + To reflect on the connections between strategies of prevention, methods of harm reduction, and the ramifications for anti-criminalization activist work + To shed light on the current state of criminalization, and to strategize potential avenues of engagement Community members and organizations are encouraged to attend. Those interested may prepare and read a 5-7 minute statement regarding our conversation objectives. Please inform organizers when you arrive that you intend to read a prepared statement. The conversation will be bilingual and all attendees are encouraged to speak in their language of choice. ACCM is making every effort to also have whisper translators available. (If you are able to volunteer as a translator please let us know.) We are looking to de-escalate from a position of anger, to one of engagement. We are looking to provide a safe space for opinions and emotions to be shared. Looking forward, we hope that this conversation will create the framework for future holistic forms of engagement about issues meaningful to the HIV and AIDS community. Rather than stopping at barebacking or making this a one-issue debate, we are positioned to have greater, meaningful, and more profound conversations that will take us forward. Together we can make this conversation have a real effect in the real world. It is truly incredible what can happen when people make in-person connections.

Curtis Stone LOCATION:Faubourg Building: Room FG-C070 (1616 Ste. Catherine S., Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5565 DESCRIPTION:The Concordia Greenhouse is thrilled to announce the launch of City Farm School 2012! To celebrate, we're hosting a presentation by Curtis Stone on Small Plot INtensive (SPIN) farming. Come for Curtis Stone's talk, 6pm-8pm in the Faubourg RM C070 - 1616 Ste.Catherine O - and then join us afterwards in the Greenhouse for food, music and discussion. Curtis Stone – Farming in the City Interested in urban farming? Want to learn how to actually make money at it? Or just have the ultimate backyard garden? At this presentation, you'll learn how the SPIN (Small Plot INtensive) farming system, which is now being practiced by a growing corps of farmers across Canada and the U.S., can be used to create a high-income producing farm or improve your current operation. SPIN is the ?rst organic-based production system for land bases under an acre in size, and it can be implemented by aspiring and practicing backyard, front lawn and neighborhood lot farmers everywhere. All you need is to equip yourself with the right gear and a radically new understanding of what it means to be a farmer. Concordia Greenhouse’s City Farm School 2012 Improving on last year’s model, the City Farm team has designed an integrative, focused urban agriculture program. Students will participate in an 8 month internship in a garden project here in Montreal. Bi-weekly workshops for the entire growing season will give students the knowledge to start their own garden projects in 2013! Come out to meet the team and learn more about our plans for 2012. Registration is now open online http://concordialoyolacityfarm.wordpress.com/registration-2012/ About the presenter, Curtis Stone Curtis is the owner/operator of Green City Acres, a pedal powered urban SPIN farm based in Kelowna, BC. Farming under an acre on a collection of 8 different urban plots, he sells through the local farmers market, restaurants and a 30 member CSA veggie box program. All operations on his SPIN farm, including deliveries, moving compost, tools and a 400 lb. rear tine rototiller, are done with custom utility bicycles and custom built steel framed trailers.

A HIP HOP HISTORY: slammin '84 BBC doc on Bronx Hip Hop culture! LOCATION:Blue Sunshine Psychotronic Film Centre (3660 Boul. St-Laurent - 3e Etage, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5593 DESCRIPTION:BEAT THIS! A HIP HOP HISTORY Dick Fontaine | UK 1984 | 55min. | Video | VOA Thursday, February 16th Doors: 7:15pm Film: 8:00pm Old School Hip Hop videos before and after the film!! This outstanding 1984 BBC doc traces the rise of rapping, scratching, breaking, and graffiti born from the gang culture of New York’s South Bronx. Very well photographed with mind-boggling B-boy footage and tons of freestyle rapping (including a boys vs. girls battle!). The great DJ/producer/ Zulu Nation founder/electro-funk pioneer Afrika Bambaata is the main through line – historically and musically – arriving from outer space to wax nostalgia over old gang turf, while ‘Renegades of Funk’ is recorded in studio. Also interviewed: Graffiti artists and the cops who chase them, hip hop forefather DJ Kool Herc - inventor of the breakbeat – cruising in a convertible with HUGE speakers, and Malcolm McLaren describing attending a South Bronx party with zero prior knowledge of hip hop culture, the lone white guy in a 1000-person crowd watching the future of music unfold before his nervous eyes. --------------- Ce remarquable documentaire de la BBC datant de 1984 retrace les origines du rap, scratch, breakdance et graffiti nés dans la culture des gangs de rue du South Bronx. On y retrouve une direction photo éclatante entremêlée de scènes de breakdance hallucinante et des tonnes de rap ‘freestyle’ (incluant un duel entre gars et filles!). L’excellent DJ/producteur/fondateur de la Zulu Nation/pionnier de l’électro-funk Afrika Bambaata est figure de proue (historiquement et musicalement), débarqué de l’espace pour discuter avec nostalgie de ses racines pendant qu’il enregistre ‘Renegades of Funk’ en studio. On y retrouve aussi des entrevues avec des graffiteurs et les policiers à leur poursuite, le pionnier du hip-hop et inventeur du breakbeat DJ Kool Herc alors qu’il se balade en décapotable avec d’immenses haut-parleurs et Malcolm McLaren, qui raconte comment il s’est retrouvé le seul blanc dans un fête du South Bronx et, n’ayant jamais même entendu parler de la culture hip-hop, observant le futur de la musique s’épanouir devant ses yeux. (traduction : Alex Rose) FOLLOWED BY A SPECIAL BONUS FILM: BOMBIN' Dick Fontaine | UK 1988 | 55min. | Video | VOA Dick Fontaine's equally fascinating follow-up to BEAT THIS! spins its lens on the behind-the-scenes effort to bring the Bronx founders of Hip Hop culture to the ghettos of Britain to spread their message and educate the masses. Focusing primarily on graffiti pioneer Brim Fuentes (memorably featured in BEAT THIS!), considered a criminal at home, and now heralded as an art genius in Britain, teaching graffiti art to university students and trading street stories with future drum'n'bass icon Goldie, then a popular street artist in his own right.

No contact is ever made with the object behind the image: be it a beautiful nude woman, a sportive muscle car, or a rare machine pistol. Inevitably, the viewer is left wanting moar. The elusiveness of the object itself drives the viewer on to ever more plentiful, ever less satisfying consumption from an endless stream of virtual ephemera. And the void left by the object's absence remains, necessarily, empty. This engagement, demonstrated time and again by endless image variations on the internets, is here fixed in time and space, allowing gallery visitors physical proximity to tokens of desire formally defined by their virtual ephemerality. From the eerie détournement of idolized celebrity faces to the conflation of the commodity forces behind both luxury items and iconic fine art, the works in this exhibition dislocate these fetishized image objects from their natural phenomenological habitat and, in doing so, reveal the complex nature of the increasingly pervasive pr0n object. - Jorge Ortega Featuring new works by Jon Rafman, Matt Goerzen, Julian Garcia, Jason Harvey, Tyson Parks, Jeremy Dabrowski and Vincent Charlebois.

Join us this February for a lively debate and panel discussion around the eye-opening new book, Humanitarian Negotiations Revealed. Written by insiders from Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), one of the world’s foremost aid organizations, it sets out to deliberately puncture some of the myths that place humanitarianism above politics. The panel will examine the reality of the compromises MSF has made over the years – some successfully and some less so – to try and help some of the world’s most vulnerable people. At a time when humanitarian actors are questioning their ability to overcome the obstacles they are encountering, this panel seeks to help fuel the debate on their ambitions and the best ways of fulfilling them.

Advertising is an arms race, driven by a natural inclination to get products and services noticed and to have consumers develop personal affinities with brands. In a world where many of our experiences are driven by advertising dollars, how can we gauge our involvement in a marketing- driven culture? Does participating in a social site like Facebook imply tacit approval of its core as a marketing tool? Are we, as a culture, the authors of an ever-increasing volume of advertising in our common, mental and social spaces? This conversation will explore current trends in the advertising industry, the ways in which our actions inform marketing strategies, and just how to cope with all this noise! Guests: Felix Bander is a creative marketing consultant, and author of the marketing ethics blog Good & Clever. His past work includes nearly a decade at a mid-sized national advertising agency, as well as time as a freelance writer, journalist and broadcaster. Kim Belair specializes in branding, identity development, copywriting and social media management with deezine.ca. A writer both online and off, she is frequently called upon to capture and create brand voices and identities and has also lent her talents to a number of comic, webcomic and blog projects. Moderator: Sara Potau left her home in Barcelona to discover new countries and establish herself in Montreal. Soon after her arrival, she got involved with the University of Streets Café, where she has enjoyed discovering new ideas and meeting new people. She is still deciding what to be once she grows up but she has loved working as a cultural manager and travel journalist. ---------------------------------------------------------- Complices du commerce: comment participons-nous au marché omniprésent de la publicité? La publicité est une course effrénée, destinée à attirer à tout prix l’attention sur des produits et services, et à inciter les consommateurs à tisser des liens personnels avec certaines marques. Lorsque nombre de nos expériences sont façonnées par les budgets publicitaires, comment pouvons-nous évaluer notre rôle dans une culture axée sur le marketing? Notre participation à un réseau social comme Facebook sous-entend-elle que nous approuvons tacitement sa qualité d’outil marketing? Notre culture contribue-t-elle à créer un volume toujours croissant de messages dans nos espaces communs, mentaux et sociaux? Cette conversation examinera les tendances actuelles dans l’industrie de la publicité, les manières dont nos gestes influencent les stratégies de marketing et les moyens de faire face à toute cette pub! Invités: Felix Bander est consultant en marketing créatif et auteur du blogue sur l’éthique du marketing Good & Clever. Son parcours professionnel comprend près d’une décennie d’expérience dans une agence de publicité canadienne de taille moyenne ainsi que des travaux à la pige en tant que rédacteur, journaliste et animateur de radio. Kim Belair se spécialise en stratégie de marque, en développement de l’identité, en rédaction et en gestion de médias sociaux avec deezine.ca. Cette auteure en ligne et hors ligne est souvent appelée à saisir et à créer des voix et des identités pour les marques. Elle a également exercé ses talents dans nombre de projets de bandes dessinées sur papier et en ligne ainsi que de blogues. Modératrice: Sara Potau a quitté sa ville natale de Barcelone pour parcourir le monde avant de s’installer à Montréal. Peu après son arrivée, elle s’est mise à participer à L’Université autrement : Dans les cafés, où elle aime découvrir de nouvelles idées et faire des rencontres. Elle cherche encore sa voie, mais s’est beaucoup plu à travailler comme gestionnaire culturelle et comme journaliste de voyage.

Exhibition from February 17th to March 26th, 2012 Special event in collaboration with Montreal’s Nuit Blanche on Saturday, February 25th from 8pm to 3am. Galerie Pangée is pleased to present pr0n, a group exhibition curated by Raji Sohal in collaboration with BOCA Gallery (Bozeau-Ortega Contemporary Arts) which specializes exclusively in digital art. This exhibition is the first time that art objects which were designed, conceived and contextualized entirely in virtual space are presented in a physical form and space. These art objects, while being physically unique, can be seen as reproduced objects, secondary manifestations of their virtual correlates. This exhibition features installation works by Jon Rafman, Matt Goerzen, Julian Garcia, Jason Harvey, Tyson Parks, Jeremy Dabrowski, and Vincent Charlebois. pr0n, is defined as: 1. Pornographic material viewed, obtained or created via computer. 2. Word used to evade spelling filters which look for the word 'porn'. 3. Used to describe material which is deserving of (or will be subjected to) the degree of intense speculation and overeager viewing normally reserved for high quality pornography. (urbandictionary.com) pr0n in its many definitions, incites a sensation of pleasure through the mere apprehension of an image-based representation. No contact is ever made with the object behind the image: be it a beautiful nude woman, a sporty muscle car, or a rare machine pistol. Inevitably, the viewer is left wanting more. The elusiveness of the object itself drives the viewer on to ever more plentiful, ever less satisfying consumption from an endless stream of virtual ephemera. The void left by the object's absence remains, necessarily, empty. This engagement, demonstrated time and again by endless image variations on the internet, is here fixed in time and space, allowing gallery visitors physical proximity to tokens of desire formally defined by their virtual ephemerality. From the eerie morphing of idolized celebrity faces to the conflation of the historical commodification of both luxury items and iconic fine art, the works in this show dislocate these fetishized image objects from their natural phenomenological habitat and, in doing so, reveal the complex nature of the increasingly pervasive pr0n object. In the words of curator Raji Sohal: “As our culture has speedily and fully assimilated entry into the online experience, there has hardly been time enough to note how modern life and internet culture have become co-constitutive; continuously and reciprocally shaping one another. The artists presenting from BOCA Gallery are hyper-aware of the superfluity of 1980s art and of the '90s criticism of commodity culture. Examined from the technologically-sagacious realm of the post-millenium, accessibility would seem more possible than ever before. And yet, even when the virtual objects of our desire are made material, we may still be left wanting more.” The BOCA Gallery has exhibited at Bring Your Own Beamer in Toronto and Montreal in 2011. They have also exhibited at the Canadian Centre for Architecture where they were commissioned to do a live 3D virtual mapping of the CCA building's exterior for Montreal’s Nuit Blanche in 2011. BOCA Gallery displays digital work from international artists from all over the Internet. For more information, please visit http://bocagallery.com to view their virtual gallery space. Galerie Pangée is an art gallery dedicated to showcasing Canadian and international contemporary artists. The gallery is located in the Belgo (372 Saint-Catherine West, Suite 412). The gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10am until 6pm. For further information and images please contact Margot Ross at margot@galeriepangee.com or 514.845.3368.

Les Abeilles de Yôko Ogawa : un conte pour adulte au théâtre Prospero Une jeune femme accueille chez elle son cousin qu’elle n’a pas vu depuis l’enfance. S’étant inscrit à l’université, ce dernier lui demande de l’aide pour obtenir une place dans la résidence où elle a jadis habitée. Elle éprouve cependant un étrange malaise à confier son cousin au directeur de l’établissement. Handicapé physiquement, il vit seul à l’intérieur de cette maison en décrépitude où plane, depuis quelques temps, le mystère de la disparition d’un jeune étudiant. La cousine, inquiète, rend visite à son cousin jusqu’au jour où ce dernier reste introuvable. Où est-il ? Pourquoi le directeur ne peut et ne veut pas l’aider à le retrouver ? Et d’où viennent les abeilles qui cohabitent désormais avec les résidents ? Une inquiétude grandissante s’empare de la cousine qui se lance dans une quête où retrouver son cousin et faire face à sa propre détresse deviennent les seuls éléments la raccrochant à la réalité… UNE PREMIERE PIÈCE POUR LES PRODUCTIONS METISHKUEU Fondée en 2011 par Izabel Kerr, Metishkueu en est à sa première production avec la pièce Les Abeilles. Grâce à ses projets, la jeune compagnie veut promouvoir l’expression d’une voix autochtone et Métis en travaillant avec des auteurs de différentes origines. Metishkueu veut créer un lieu de rencontre entre la culture autochtone et les autres cultures. Par son style fantasmagorique et ses propos intrigants sur fond de naïveté, de manipulation, de quête et d’isolement, le projet Les Abeilles s’inscrit directement dans le cadre du mandat que s’est donné Metishkueu. L’humain dans toute sa complexité est abordé ici, dans ses ombres autant que dans sa lumière.

Our goal with this event is to raise $300,000 to help those all over Quebec living with HIV/AIDS. This year’s MASKARADE, themed “ÉTERNITÉ” will once again be the most glamorous fundraising event in Montreal. Celebrities, artists, fashionistas and CEOs will come together to dine and celebrate. MASKARADE is an annual gala themed as a masked event. It aims to enlighten the community about the stigma attached to HIV/AIDS and those touched by the disease, including their families, friends and caregivers.

Davis, author & activist Join us for this special event with author and activist Dean Spade, founder of the Sylvia Rivera Law Project, a non-profit law collective that provides free legal services to transgender, intersex and gender non-conforming people who are low-income and/or people of color. - Please note that this venue is not fully wheelchair accessible. Contact qpirg@ssmu.mcgill.ca for more details. - Traduction chuchotée disponible vers le français. - Childcare available on request (contact info@qpirgconcordia.org to reserve by February 16). ---------- ABOUT NORMAL LIFE: Much of the legal advocacy for trans and gender nonconforming people in the US has reflected the civil rights and “equality" strategies of mainstream gay and lesbian organizations—agitating for legal reforms. This approach assumes that the state and its legal, policing, and social services apparatus are neutral and benevolent. Normal Life: Administrative Violence, Critical Trans Politics and the Limits of Law raises revelatory critiques of the current strategies pivoting solely on a legal rights framework, but also points to examples of an organized grassroots trans movement that is demanding the most essential of legal reforms in addition to making more comprehensive interventions into dangerous systems of repression—and the administrative violence that ultimately determines our life chances. Setting forth a politic that goes beyond the quest for mere legal inclusion, Normal Life is an urgent call for justice and trans liberation, and the radical transformations it will require. ABOUT DEAN SPADE: An attorney, educator, and trans activist Dean Spade has taught classes on sexual orientation, gender identity, poverty and law at the City University of New York (CUNY), Seattle University, Columbia University, and Harvard University. In 2002 he founded the Sylvia Rivera Law Project, a collective that provides free legal services and works to build trans resistance rooted in racial and economic justice. This event is co-presented by QPIRG Concordia & QPIRG McGill. Co-sponsored by RadLaw, Queer McGill, the Concordia Co-op Bookstore, No One Is Illegal-Montreal and Solidarity Across Borders Part of Social Justice Days at McGill.

Davis, auteure et activiste Joignez-vous à nous pour un événement spécial avec Dean Spade, auteur, activiste et fondateur du Sylvia Rivera Law Project, collectif ancré dans la justice raciale et économique qui offre des services juridiques gratuits aux personnes trans et intersexuées. - Veuillez noter que l'événement n'est pas totalement accessible aux fauteuils roulants.

Cette stratégie présume de la neutralité et de la bienveillance de l'appareil juridique, policier et social de l'État. Normal Life: Administrative Violence, Critical Trans Politics and the Limits of Law, d'une part, se veut une vive critique des stratégies actuelles qui s'articulent uniquement autour d'un cadre juridique des droits et, d'autre part, fournit des exemples d'un mouvement trans, populaire et organisé, qui revendique une réforme législative des plus essentielles en plus d'intervenir de plus en plus globalement contre les systèmes répressifs dangereux et contre la violence systémique. Allant au-delà de la quête pour la simple inclusion juridique, Normal Life est un appel vibrant à la justice et à la libération trans, ainsi qu'à la transformation radicale nécessaire pour y parvenir. À PROPOS DE DEAN SPADE : Avocat, éducateur populaire et activiste trans, Dean Spade a enseigné des cours traitant d'orientation et d'identité sexuelle, de pauvreté et de droit à la City University of New York (CUNY), à l'Université de Seattle, à l'Université Columbia et à l'Université Harvard. En 2002, il a fondé le collectif Sylvia Rivera Law Project, qui offre des services juridiques gratuits aux personnes trans et intersexuées et qui participe à la construction d'un mouvement de résistance trans ancré dans la justice raciale et économique. L'événement est présenté conjointement par le GRIP-Concordia et le GRIP-McGill.

Her work has been shown in galleries, alternative art venues and festivals. Razielle’s most recent collage series and window installation at Citizen Vintage are inspired by cartography, America, and the long lost art of post and letters. Découpage, found objects, and her line of stationary and postcards, are used to create a field of vision into the heart of the continent - it's consumption, it's fantasies, it's yearning for correspondence and longing for fulfillment. An invocation of hungry ghosts & bottomless fantasy, her collages are constellations of desire, disappointment, victory, and illusion. Razielle's installation will be on view until March 12, 2012. Prints and original collage work will be available for sale at Citizen Vintage during the vernissage and throughout the duration of the installation. * * * Wine, and a live performance by Adam Kinner (saxophone + text) * * * http://www.snipnstick.com/ http://adamkinner.wordpress.com/ http://citizenvintage.com/ CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 LAST-MODIFIED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 CREATED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20120217T000000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20120217T010000 UID:20120222T211517-5592@blogto.com SUMMARY:HELL UP IN HARLEM - Fred Williamson is the Black Godfather! 16mm Print! LOCATION:Blue Sunshine Psychotronic Film Centre (3660 Boul. St-Laurent - 3e Etage, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5592 DESCRIPTION:HELL UP IN HARLEM Larry Cohen | USA 1973 | 94min. | 16mm | VOA Friday, February 17th Doors: 7:15pm Film: 8:00pm 16mm Print courtesy of Toronto's TRASH PALACE! Tougher than Shaft and smoother than Superfly! Larry Cohen’s sequel to his own high-voltage Black Caesar is a tribute to classic 30’s gangster films, with Fred Williamson returning as Tommy Gibbs, a fearless, bulletproof tough guy who blasts his way from the gutter to become the ultimate street boss. When he steals a ledger naming every crooked official on the mob's payroll, he becomes the city’s most hunted man. Hell up in Harlem was rushed into production while Williamson was busy with That Man Bolt, and Cohen was filming It’s Alive, pulling his crew to shoot on weekends. Nonetheless, the speeding plot, always-on-the-move camera work, machine-gun editing and Edwin Starr's funky score (originally offered to James Brown, whose rejected material became The Payback album!) all add up to two big fists of reckless attitude. ---------------------- Plus fort que Shaft et plus de sang-froid que Superfly! Larry Cohen signe ici une suite à son propre film Black Caesar en hommage aux films de gangsters des années 30. Fred Williamson est de retour dans la peau de Tommy Gibbs, un intrépide dur à cuire qui écrase tout dans son chemin vers le sommet. Quand il vole un document contenant les noms de tous les fonctionnaires véreux au solde de la mafia, il devient l’ennemi public #1. Hell Up In Harlem fut mis en production pendant que Williamson tournait That Man Bolt et que Cohen tournait It’s Alive, le forçant ainsi à utiliser cette même équipe de tournage la fin de semaine. Il reste que l’intrigue haletante, la caméra hyperactive, le montage en mitraillette et la musique funky d’Edwin Starr (le projet fut d’abord proposé à James Brown, qui utilisa ce matériel pour l’album The Payback) font de Black Caesar un classique.

LOCATION:L'astral (305, Ste Catherine Ouest, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5636 DESCRIPTION:Montréal accueillera pour une troisième fois la formation belge MLCD [My Little Cheap Dictaphone]. Dans le cadre de MONTRÉAL EN LUMIÈRE, ils viendront interpréter à L'Astral leur plus récent album, The Tragic Tale of a Genius, un album-concert fascinant, sorti au pays sur Lazy At Work / SÉLECT. ''The Tragic Tale of a Genius'' met en scène l’histoire d’un génie musical perdu entre rêve et réalité. Dans une ambiance de cabaret surréaliste, le récit prend vie en 13 chapitres de rock orchestral, soutenu par des cordes épiques et des vidéos inspirés des films noirs des années '50. Tragic Tale transporte le spectateur dans un univers cinématographique singulier de MLCD La première partie sera assurée par Hôtel Morphée! http://www.facebook.com/pages/HOTEL-MORPHEE/53671911457?sk=wall Billets : http://www.ticketmaster.ca/event/10004775EBB58EEF?lang=fr-ca&camefrom=CFC_SPECTRA_FR Depuis 2010, MLCD collectionne les honneurs du public et de la critique européenne en étant notamment 2 fois lauréats aux Octaves de la Musique (Artiste de l’année et Album de l’année) et Révélation de l’année au respecté magazine belge Le Vif Focus.

Sur scène, avec les projections pour accompagner le propos, c'est encore plus efficace. » La Presse « La formation belge My Little Cheap Dictaphone (MLCD) vaut le détour. Surtout pour son ambitieux projet The Tragic Tale of a Genius, sur lequel elle travaille depuis trois ans déjà et qui a fait des vagues de l'autre côté de l'Atlantique. Une production que nous pourrions qualifier de conte musical alternatif et multidisciplinaire, qui allie à la musique la photo, le cinéma, la poésie et le théâtre. » VOIR MLCD est une formation belge séduisante, exquise, bonne en bouche, c’est l’entrée idéale en matière musicale.

Influenced by the digging in the crates sampling school of hip hop, Mass Productions released one independent album in the summer of 2007 entitled Fresh Beetz. It was their first and only release. In the summer of 2009, the two launched their second collaboration - Zeds Dead - turning up the bpm and aiming the bass-lines at the dance-floor. Soon after Zeds Dead (alongside the Killabits) founded a weekly party in Toronto called BassMentality. Guests have included Nero, Skrillex, Netsky, Mary Anne Hobbs, 12th Planet, Borgore, Plastician, and many more. Zeds Dead has earned an excellent reputation amongst a new generation of producers as artists without borders - genres hold no bearing over their music as they transcend style and form with ease. By pulling from a vast array of source material (Radiohead, The Rolling Stones, The Moody Blues, Sublime), and molding it into their unique brand of dance-floor classics, They have established themselves as a dominant force in EDM circles and have received recognition and praise from tastemakers worldwide.

LOCATION:Blue Sunshine Psychotronic Film Centre (3660 Boul. St-Laurent - 3e Etage, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5591 DESCRIPTION:STILL A BROTHER: INSIDE THE NEGRO MIDDLE CLASS William Greaves | Narrated by Ossie Davis | USA 1968 | 88min. | 16mm | VOA Saturday, February 18th Doors: 7:15pm Film: 8:00pm 16mm print courtesy of Toronto's TRASH PALACE! Narrated by the legendary Ossie Davis, this is a great, intimate study of the black middle class in late-60s USA. At this distance, those who weren't there tend to see the era through a media lens of civil rights marches, Black Panthers and inner-city riots. While those are all well represented here, this view of the 60s is way more complex and personal - taking us from cattle eviscerators to "evenings of elegance", from religion to revolt, from aspiring one-percenter Bobby Jones to a totally great inquiry into the meaning of 'soul'. In fact, this movie sets out to summarize the whole spectrum of issues around race and class circa 1968, and it does a great job. The depth and insight of the production make it feel much more like a conversation within the community than the usual mass-market upsell, while still delivering more than enough clarity and entertainment value to keep an outsider engaged. It won honours at the American Film Festival, and was the first black-produced film ever to be nominated for an Emmy. (Trash Palace's Jonathan Culp) "A penetrating, pull-no-punches study of the little-known, oft-maligned 'black bourgeoisie' in the US." (The Afro-American) "Impressive, candid and articulate" (Wisconsin State Journal) "An important, rarely-screened work by one of the true greats" (Black Film Centre) ----------------- Cette production télé du documentariste afro-américain William Greaves s’intéresse aux conflits de la classe moyenne noire à l’époque de la révolution politique des années 60. Narré par le légendaire écrivain, réalisateur et activiste Ossie Davis, ce fut la première production documentaire noire à recevoir une nomination aux Emmy Awards. Elle pose en particulier la question de l’identification à sa propre race peu importe sa classe, ou s’il est préférable d’imiter les normes de la société blanche pour pouvoir atteindre un niveau dans l’échelle sociale autrement inaccessible. On compte parmi les intervenants Percy Julian, Julian Bond et St. Clair Drake. Une œuvre importante et rarement montrée par un très grand auteur.

SCOTT C in the place too with ANDY WILLIAMS and another concoction laced with funk, soul, jazz, hip hop, boogie, beats and afro-latin dance-floor business. I played with Lefto and friends at CFC the last time he was here, and first asked him then about coming to play with us at Sala Rosa. Very happy to say that day is here, as it’s gonna be a good one! http://www.musicismysanctuary.com/ http://www.barbarianlove.tumblr.com/ http://overthebreaks.com/ DJ LEFTO As one the most important tastemakers Europe has to offer, and affiliated with labels Brownswood, Blue Note, !K7 Records, Stones Throw and Jazzy Sport, this bearded early riser is consistently a couple steps ahead of your average early adopter. He doesn't wait for the next thing to land on his lap, he actively seeks it out, therefore just take a peek at his playlists on Belgium's foremost national radio station Studio Brussel which received compliments from Rough Trade Shops and Gilles Peterson. However, don't assume that he's only working futuristic angles - no sir. Firmly rooted in jazz and hip hop, he sharpened his digging sensibility working at the now legendary Music Mania record store in hometown Brussels. His passion for jazz resulted in a remix album for Blue Note which was well received by the community. LeFtO is forever moving forwards but always got an ear in the past. Famed for his gloriously eclectic dj sets, he switches effortlessly between hip hop, funk breaks, neck-snapping beats, future bass, south-american influences, bruk riddims and some wild african rhythms. He's not only a deejay and producer but also curates his own stage at the Dour Festival and his own nights in Gent in collaboration with Democrazy. World renowned, LeFtO regularly blesses sound systems from Tokyo to Seoul and Singapore to New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles. He has been a resident deejay for Gilles Peterson's Worldwide Festivals since 2008 around the world. Camera under the arm, he is also one of the few deejays on this planet who can deejay somewhere and have a nice movie on the internet a couple hours later, with over 250 videos on Youtube and Vimeo, it's very impressive. The travel resulted in a compilation on Gilles Peterson's Brownswood Recordings with partner in crime DJ Simbad. Today, he's been working on several projects including compilations, a serie of t-shirts for 101 Apparel and more secrets...

As a DJ he’s travelled the globe. As a producer, he’s topped industry charts over and over again. As a lover of music, he continues to chase down the freshest beats around. Simply put, he’s become one of the great DJ/ Producers of the modern world. In 2009 Chris turned to the Americas with the intention of winning over two of 'the' musically cultured continents. Two Billboard Dance chart airplay number 1’s and multiple tours, have ensured that from Vancouver to Rio, NYC to Miami… the sound of Chris Lake has travelled far and wide, and is now embraced with loving arms, no matter what the city. The question is, what is the sound of Chris Lake? Yes, he is known for his musical crossovers, and based on the success of 'Changes', ‘La Tromba’, ‘Only One’ and ‘If You Knew’, why not? The latter, taking the number one spot in the Music Week, Buzz and Cool Cuts charts, while the accompanying music video was praised by MTV and broke into its Top 5 weekly chart. As a DJ his vibe is very different, always enjoying the darker and deeper side of electronic music, yet still fusing in cheeky edits and homemade tracks, just so the dance floor knows it’s the Chris Lake experience and one to be savored. 2010 kicked off with a Michael Woods remix of his collaboration with good friend Deadmau5 ‘I Said’ taking Pete Tong’s first ‘Essential New Tune of the decade.’ That was to be just the beginning… further works with Michael Woods on Dominos and another BBC Radio 1 hit, this time with Nelski on Minimal Life - all peaking with his Lake & Lys album 'Cross the Line', launched mid way through his residency at Cream Ibiza with Deadmau5 and Friends. The year ended in fine style, Chris and Marco, once again ripping up a re-edit, this time Nightrider's 'Hey' got the treatment - another Buzz Chart No.1 for the guys. The year to come promises a massive America tour, an excited move to LA and much much more music! Chris Lake is….? The word ‘accomplished’ springs to mind. Now it’s up to us to sit back and enjoy the pleasure of watching as his attitude towards music matures and develops… who knows what’s yet to come… http://www.risingmusic.co.uk/ http://flavors.me/djchrislake http://www.myspace.com/chrislake1 http://www.youtube.com/chrislakeofficial http://www.twitter.com/djchrislake https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/cont... http://www.facebook.com/risingmusic http://www.twitter.com/risingmusic http://www.soundcloud.com/risingmusic ******************************** MUSIC BY Opening Set: Thomas H Imperial Room: Dj Payce 3781 St-Laurent Blvd 21+, Strict Dress Code For guestlist & reservations contact: Carlo Mateo H (c) 514.833.9926 (pin) 26D46D37 (e) ceelo@muziquemontreal.com CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 LAST-MODIFIED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 CREATED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20120219T000000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20120219T010000 UID:20120222T211517-5523@blogto.com SUMMARY:CinemaSpace presents Queen of the Sun by Taggart Siegel and Jardin du soleil by Rose Lowder LOCATION:CinemaSpace at Segal Centre for Performing Arts URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5523 DESCRIPTION:CinemaSpace is proud to present QUEEN OF THE SUN by Taggart Siegel + JARDIN DU SOLEIL by Rose Lowder February 16th at 7:30pm and repeated February 19th at 6pm Part of the all-new Echoes of the Planet series QUEEN OF THE SUN: What are the Bees Telling Us? is an alternative and profound look at the global bee crisis by award-winning documentary filmmaker Taggart Siegel.

Beyond business as usual: Has Occupy changed us? The wave of occupations that began on October 15 overtook more than a thousand cities, made an incredible media splash, and had everyone talking. But did the Occupy movement change anything and if so, what exactly? The protestors have been evicted but the rich and powerful remain. While many people are still mobilizing, their actions have faded from view. The movement’s forced retreat could easily prompt cynicism but there may be other ways to consider Occupy’s lasting effects. We know, for example, that many participants were deeply transformed by their experiences and that the Occupy movement brought North America into a global fold of social movements. So does creating or witnessing large-scale protests at home result in real difference? Beyond media reports and political banter, this conversation invites everyone, activists or not, to make sense of Occupy and its possible impacts. Guests: Marcos Ancelovici teaches courses on globalization, social movements, and labor politics in the Department of Sociology at McGill University. His extensive studies have focused on labor responses to globalization, the global justice movement in France, and anti-sweatshop campaigns in Canada and France. Marcos began studying the Spanish “Indignados” in the summer of 2011 and has been doing research on Occupy Montreal since it began on October 15, 2011. Throughout her activist and professional life, Carminda Mac Lorin has nurtured an interest in creative citizen engagement and democratic experimentation. She has launched many events, fusing multidisciplinary arts with social critique. In 2011, Carminda became involved in Occupy Montreal and spoke about her experience on the Quebec TV show Tout le Monde en Parle. She is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Applied Human Science at the Université de Montréal. Moderator: Alex Megelas is an educator, life coach and community organizer. He is interested in dialogue as a necessary foundation to growth and critical citizenship. He is pursuing an MA in Educational Studies at Concordia University and is interested in technology as a form of social power and spectacle in activism. He is the Coordinator of the Personal and Cultural Enrichment Program in the School of Continuing Studies at McGill University. He loves board games, soccer, his cats and you. ** Après la vague: le mouvement des Indignés nous-a-t-il changés? Le 15 octobre dernier, s’est amorcée la vague d’occupations qui a secoué plus d’un millier de villes dans le monde et eu un impact médiatique incroyable. Mais le mouvement des Indignés a-t-il changé quelque chose? Et si oui, quoi exactement? Tandis que les Indignés ont été expulsés peu à peu, les riches et les puissants eux, demeurent. Quant aux efforts subséquents pour réactiver le mouvement, ils sont tombés dans l’oubli. En dehors du risque de cynisme face à ces efforts compromis, y a-t-il d’autres manières de considérer les effets de ce mouvement d’occupations? Ainsi, plusieurs participants disent avoir été transformés par cette expérience, tandis que l’Amérique du Nord se voyait désormais incluse dans une vague de mouvements sociaux globaux. Le fait d’être témoin d’une mobilisation d’une telle ampleur si près de nous, ou d’y participer, a-t-il eu des effets? Par-delà la rumeur médiatique et les bavardages politiques, cette conversation est une invitation à tous, militants ou non, à partager le sens qu’ils donnent à ce mouvement social et à explorer ses possibles impacts. Invités: Marcos Ancelovici donne des cours sur la mondialisation, les mouvements sociaux et la politique de la main-d’œuvre au Département de sociologie de l’Université McGill. Ses études approfondies ont porté sur les réactions ouvrières à la mondialisation, le mouvement pour la justice mondiale en France et les campagnes contre les ateliers de misère au Canada et en France. M. Ancelovici a commencé à se pencher sur les « Indignados » espagnols à l’été 2011 et fait de la recherche sur le mouvement Occupons Montréal depuis ses débuts, le 15 octobre 2011. Tout au long de son parcours militant et professionnel, Carminda Mac Lorin s’est intéressée à divers espaces de créativité citoyenne et d’expérimentation démocratique. Elle a mis sur pied une panoplie d’événements qui allient arts multidisciplinaires et critique sociale. En 2011, Carminda s’est ralliée à la mouvance des Indignés de Montréal/Occupons Montréal, participant notamment à l’émission québécoise Tout le Monde en Parle. Elle est actuellement inscrite au doctorat en Sciences Humaines Appliquées à l’Université de Montréal. Modérateur: Alex Megelas est éducateur, mentor et organisateur communautaire. Il s’intéresse au dialogue comme base essentielle de la croissance et du sens critique des citoyens. Il fait une maîtrise ès arts en théorie de l’éducation à l’Université Concordia et examine la technologie comme forme de pouvoir social et de spectacle en matière de militantisme. Il est coordonnateur du Programme axé sur la culture et l’enrichissement (PACE) à l’École d’éducation permanente de l’Université McGill. Il adore les jeux de société, le soccer, ses chats et vous.

This is the Montreal premiere of HEALTH FACTORY. THE BIG WAIT Joanne Jackson and Jari Osborne / CA / 2010 / 53 min / English The doctor shortage is getting critical and one town is desperately trying to recruit physicians. At the same time, three internationally trained doctors are trying to get licensed to practice medicine in their new country. This is the potent story documented in The Big Wait, a new film produced by Joanne Jackson for Brilliant Red Media and OMNI Television. The Northern Ontario community of Midland-Penetanguishene forms the backdrop for this candid look at the effects of bureaucracy on the health of the nation. The Big Wait focuses on three foreign-trained doctors who are waiting to get accredited and on the rural communities who are waiting for them. While the doctors face unforeseen challenges trying to do what they were trained to do, the town searches for doctors willing to set-up a family practice in their community. The Big Wait features a journey of parallel story lines. Will the community of Midland-Penetanguishene find its doctors? And, will the international doctors find a way to get into the system? It’s the true story of patients and doctors on a human journey in the changing medical landscape. HEALTH FACTORY - Montreal premiere* Håvard Bustnes / NO / 2010 / 76 min / Norwegian / S.T. English Governments apply models taken from business corporations in order to improve our health care systems. The goal is to get more health for the money spent, based on the presumption that private corporations are more efficient and less wasteful than public bodies. After the Second World War governments across Europe and around the world – with the sole exception of the USA – were coming to the conclusion that some form of collective, social provision had to be made for health care. The idea was that the free market could not deliver services that were socially acceptable. People needing most health care services are too poor to be able to afford the market price of that care. Universal health care coverage was first introduced in the UK in 1948. Many countries copied this model, and still retain a system of welfare and equity for all, regardless of ability to pay for services. Now, 60 years later the idea of providing equal rights to all citizens is under pressure around the world. Universal health care systems are being dismantled and privatized, making health care once again a commodity to be bought, rather than a right, and this has become the standard prescription of the World Bank, IMF and WTO, even the WHO. Could it be that we by trying to fix the health service, have created a monster? Is the disease and suffering of individuals of such a nature that market mechanisms are the best tools with which to treat them? cinemapolitica.org/concordia CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 LAST-MODIFIED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 CREATED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20120221T000000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T000000 UID:20120222T211517-5273@blogto.com SUMMARY:EMMA-LEE + HARLAN PEPPER + MOTEL RAPHAEL LOCATION:Divan Orange (4234 St. Laurent, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5273 DESCRIPTION:Indie Montreal Presents...

Our first kiss. The first time we fell in love. The first time we heard a song on the radio that changed everything we thought we knew about life. Toronto singer-songwriter Emma-Lee has one of those rare voices that will stop you dead in your tracks, etch itself into your soul, and force you to reassess those matters of the heart. But her voice is just the bait; it's her songs that hook you. Like so many others before, Emma-Lee cut her teeth in bars and clubs around Toronto, releasing a couple of EPs along the way. Her break came in 2008. Overcoming two potentially career-fatal injuries to her vocal cords with the same accept-no-failure fervour that she belts her tunes, she independently-released her debut Never Just A Dream and garnered immediate critical acclaim. Praise rolled in from The Globe And Mail, No Depression Magazine, Chatelaine and numerous others. The Toronto Star gave Never Just A Dream 4 out of 4 stars and declared, "She’s destined for big things." Seamlessly bringing together her influences in pop, jazz, folk and blues music, Never Just A Dream charmed listeners with its old-time warmth and eclectic track list, bridging the gap between genres with ease. iTunes Canada included Emma-Lee in their list of top singer-songwriters of 2008 alongside artists such as Bon Iver, Martha Wainwright and Emiliana Torrini; the frequent vocal comparisons to Feist, k.d. lang and Norah Jones put her in some lofty, but fitting, company. The hard work and praise paid off when Bumstead Productions picked up Never Just A Dream and re-released the album in March of 2009. A national tour, key festival spots, heavy radio play on the CBC, multiple film & television placements and a national TV appearance followed leaving hordes of loyal fans in her wake. Emma-Lee has since been writing & co-writing songs that will appear on her forthcoming sophomore album to be released in fall 2011. The album will be a departure from Never Just a Dream, leaning more Stevie Nicks than Sarah Vaughn and will feature co-writes with Nicole Atkins, Jill Barber and Luke Doucet. Stay tuned for what is sure to be "an exciting musical course all her own" - No Depression Magazine. www.emma-lee.com Formed in 2008, Harlan Pepper are four young men from Hamilton playing music with an old soul. Channeling the ghosts of long-gone AM car radios and haunting the dusty aisles of small town vinyl record bins, Jimmy Hayes (guitar, pedal steel, harmonica), Dan Edmonds (banjo, keys, vocals), Thompson Wilson (bass, vocals), and Marlon Nicolle (drums, vocals) are barely out of high school. Recorded at Hamilton’s Vibewrangler Studio with Aaron Goldstein (Huron, Espanola) Young And Old conjures up a session where Gram Parsons, Buck Owens and Hank Williams pay a Basement Tapes visit to sit in with contemporaries like Joel Plaskett and Jeff Tweedy. Moving from the wind-in-your-hair banjo-led opener Great Lakes, to the road-ready, hook and head nod of Little Miss Sunshine, to the singalong crowd favourite of Reefer, this is a set of nine songs that roll along with the top down. Already an accomplished live band Harlan Pepper has shared the stage with the likes of the Sadies, Born Ruffians, Two Hours Traffic, Lee Har vey Osmond, Huron, the Arkells, and Feist. With the AM radio crackling out a distant signal and a stack of instruments older than all of them in the back of the van, the band will be touring all through 2011 in support of their debut album, Young And Old. “After just a few songs, you forget how odd it is to see such young musicians successfully channel 60s and 70s folk rock sounds. Once over the initial shock, though, it’s obvious that they’ve got the chops to pull it off better than many bands who’ve spent decades trying for the same vibe.” NNNN Now Magazine “… – alt–country, hard rock, blues and folk all blend together but it’s the enunciation in vocals, the cadence of phrasing, both songs and perfor mance, while simple in structure, betray some serious crafting in lyric and arrangement.” View Magazine “These young men write and play like old souls. There are roots in traditional countr y, the Grateful Dead, and the great folk rock and alt-country bands of the past like the Flying Burrito Brothers, the Band, and Buffalo Springfield.” Bob Segarini (FYI Music Weekly) www.harlanpepper.com Late one Summer night, three girls ran across a highway to get to seedy bar.

Step 1 was so much fun that they stopped right there. www.facebook.com/MotelRaphael *************************************************** PRESENTED BY INDIE MONTREAL www.indiemontreal.ca http://twitter.com/indiemontreal Page: www.facebook.com/IndieMontreal Group: 'Montreal Indie Music Network' on Facebook 18+ CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 LAST-MODIFIED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 CREATED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211517 DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20120221T000000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20120221T010000 UID:20120222T211517-5632@blogto.com SUMMARY:Mélanie & Stéphanie Boulay – Benoit Morier – Francis Faubert LOCATION:Cabaret Lion d'Or (1676, rue Ontario E, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5632 DESCRIPTION:Sous le signe du folk, le prochain rendez-vous se tiendra le mardi 21 février en compagnie de Mélanie & Stéphanie Boulay, Benoit Morier et Francis Faubert.

Ce sont des oeuvres qui sont bruyantes, calmes, contemplatives ou ringardes. De l'art grotesque, de l'art sexuel, de l'art identitaire, de l'art politique, de l'art poubelle. Le vernissage aura lieu le vendredi 24 février de 19h à 23h. L'expo aura lieu du 22 février au 17 mars (le mercredi de 16h à 19h du jeudi au samedi de 13h à 19h) FRESH PAINT accueillera un événement lors de La Nuit Blanche le 25 Février 2012. This year the RQS art exhibit will take place in the Fresh Paint Gallery. It is a temporary exhibition space that shows street and public art, run by the Under Pressure graffiti festival. The building is located at 180 Sainte-Catherine East on the last remaining sketchy part of downtown Sainte-Catherine, between the Quartier-des-Spectacles and Quartier-Latin. Our artistes talk about what they care about, what makes them angry or sad or happy. What they love, whom they love. What and whom they hate. They expose information, knowledge and experiences that they want to preserve or help rediscover. News and ideas and events that are not otherwise heard, or that are just talked about for a second. Works that are loud or quiet or contemplative or nerdy. Ludicrous art, sexual art, identity art, political art, interactive art, garbage art. The vernissage will be held on February 24th, 7-11pm The exhibit will be from February 22 to March 17th Opening hours: Wednesday to Saturday, 12-7pm. Nuit Blanche will host an event in the space on February 25th, 2012. +30 artistes !!!!!

NiT GRiT http://nitgrit.com The dubstep electronic genre has emerged as a force in the United States, and no one embodies its momentum more than San Jose based artist NiT GriT. One of the most prolific and hardworking of the new field of dubstep/grime performers, his current music was formed in his home turf of the Bay area from a background in glitch, idm, and breakcore, and is set apart by its soulfulness and melody. True to the trend towards dramatic entrances in so many of the new fraternity of sensational dubstep artists, NiT GriT burst on the scene with his first show in March 2010 in a co-billing with Excision. + GUESTS ______________________ 18+ CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 LAST-MODIFIED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 CREATED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20120226T000000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20120227T000000 UID:20120222T211518-5555@blogto.com SUMMARY:REGGAY IV LOCATION:Salon Officiel (351 roy est, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5555 DESCRIPTION:Reggay night/soirrée reggay dub/dancehall/rocksteady/d&b/bass avec des magnifiques djs/ with magnificent djs: resident: Aaron Maiden and special guests/ et invités Dj It Gets Better and/et Dave Q (nyc, DubWar, the index, ) http://www.mixcloud.com/dqxt/dave-q-hotflush-podcast-016-160-bpm-twisup-special/ Homo + Gratuit/ No cover CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 LAST-MODIFIED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 CREATED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20120226T000000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20120226T010000 UID:20120222T211518-5617@blogto.com SUMMARY:The Underground Comedy Railroad- MONTREAL Edition LOCATION:Comedy Nest (2313 St.Catherines West, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5617 DESCRIPTION:COVERING 3 CITIES: MONTREAL (Sunday Feb 26th), OTTAWA (Thursday March 1st), and WINNIPEG (Friday March 16th) -THE UNDERGROUND COMEDY RAILROAD TOUR- In collaboration with Delta Hotel located in the heart of downtown Montreal, this February 26th until March 26th, the first all black Canadian comedy tour "The underground comedy railroad" will play across Canada.

They live between the light and the dark, sometimes in the shadows, occasionally in the dark, more often in the light. Their songs take them there. Quantum shifts between heavy and light, soft and hard, loud and quiet. Much like the band itself the songs from their first two releases Everything I’ve Forgotten To Forget and My, What Big Teeth You Have… come alive when they are performed on stage. They have become more dynamic, more intense and the audience involvement in the live show has re-shaped many of their best known numbers. For their new material Amos The Transparent have decided to release their light and dark sides separately on two EP’s Goodnight My Dear… and I’m Falling Apart and then collectively (with bonus material) on a special vinyl release of Goodnight My Dear…I’m Falling Apart. Whether they are sharing a stage with Jeff Beck or Zeus, or headlining a show in Australia or rockin’ a music festival in the United States Amos come alive when they perform. With a recent band addition or two, keyboards and strings now compliment a three guitar attack and seem to make the louder moments more aggressive and the softer moments quieter. Goodnight My Dear… will be available in November I’m Falling Apart will be available in December Goodnight My Dear…I’m Falling Apart will be available in February. http://amosthetransparent.com Erik Lind & The Orchard is a four-piece band from Montreal who began performing together in 2010. They sing about Canadian winters, love-hate relationships with one's hometown, and forest fires. Mikael is the tall one, Michel is the one usually sitting, Dee is the one who is not a boy, and Erik is the other one. http://eriklind.bandcamp.com Rugged, raspy, and roaring with charisma, Halifax's Ben Caplan & The Casual Smokers is to folklore what smoke is to bourbon. Perfectly coupled. Ben's songwriting is as bold in range as it is in ferocity. Fueled by a quality of melodrama and powerful lyricism, it's the romance and the manhood crashing with his voice that gives Caplan a truly innovative and experimental artistry. A sound that bridges the gap between controlled composition and unruly passion. Striding in pace with gypsy-inspired strings amid the sultry tones of clarinet and saxophone, Caplan has marked his place in the Canadian music landscape with a growling spirit similar to that of Tom Waits. Caplan's tours have extended throughout the Commonwealth, the rhapsodic energy in his live show an elegant cacophony gaining attention around the world. Breaking between guitar, banjo, piano, and melodica, Caplan's stage show is almost reminiscent of a burly and bearded Freddy Mercury; a raging, strong, and exploratory songwriter, it's the blues in his soul, and the heart in your chest pounding as one that makes Ben Caplan & The Casual Smokers an act not to be missed. Ben Caplan has been a touring musician for the past five years. Seasoned in coast-to-coast travel, Caplan his seen stages in the UK and has performed at a rolodex of festivals. http://bencaplan.ca *************************************************** PRESENTED BY INDIE MONTREAL www.indiemontreal.ca http://twitter.com/indiemontreal Page: www.facebook.com/IndieMontreal Group: 'Montreal Indie Music Network' on Facebook 18+ CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 LAST-MODIFIED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 CREATED;TZID=US/Eastern:20120222T211518 DTSTART;TZID=US/Eastern:20120229T000000 DTEND;TZID=US/Eastern:20120229T010000 UID:20120222T211518-5243@blogto.com SUMMARY:Ariane Moffatt @ Rialto, Montréal LOCATION:Le Theatre Rialto (5323, Ave. du Parc, Montreal, Quebec) URL:http://www.midnightpoutine.ca/events/5243 DESCRIPTION:Découvrez sur scène le nouvel album d'Ariane Moffatt!

A makeshift court is assembled at Lake Turkana, Africa, where the Devil is on trial: if he can prove that he is innocent, he shall return to Heaven for eternity; if he is found guilty, he shall remain an outcast on Earth. The case is brought to life by a series of testimonies from various characters who have encountered the Devil. Each testimony seamlessly transports the story to that time period—ranging from 1212 BC to the present—and reveals the Devil wearing a different skin, until, by the end, he sheds them all. The History of the Devil exposes the Devil as a fallen angel so like ourselves. Does he deserve paradise?

A long list of new surveillance measures has been introduced; control mechanisms including a "no fly" list have been increasingly normalized; and policing and intelligence powers of the state have expanded. The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), Canada's spy agency - which is mandated to protect national security - is a key indicator of this trend. Over the last 10 years, its budget has increased by 140%, reaching $430 million in 2009. In 2010, the agency maintained almost 3000 employees. CSIS has been heavily implicated in several Canadian cases of rendition to torture but has emerged from these and other scandals unscathed, protected by a broad mandate, laws assuring the secrecy of its operations, and a lack of accountability mechanisms. The People's Commission Network, a grassroots network of community organizations and activists, was formed in 2005 to examine the impact of this trend on migrant communities. It organized three days of open community hearings on immigration, security certificates, and related issues in 2006 and initiated a major forum on a range of issues on "security" in 2011. The People's Commission Network is currently engaged in a popular education campaign reaching out to communities in Montreal who are marginalized politically and socially by national security measures. Three members of the People's Commission Network - Mary Foster, Abby Lippman and Jaggi Singh – will present the campaign and discuss its importance. See www.peoplescommission.org/en/csis.
