Tackling Socio-Political Issues Through Art & Pixels
Saturday October 14, 2017 – 12h00 pm
in the magical setting of l’Hôtel Particulier
Fine Arts Artist Stanford alum Lisa Cirenza is highly regarded for her socially conscious digital and traditional works, exhibited in prestigious galleries, art fairs and museums internationally.
Born in the US, Lisa Cirenza studied at Stanford University and Ecole des Mines. While she started her career as Gaz and Oil Analyst at Goldman Sachs, Consultant at Booz Allen, Researcher on the Environment and Glaciology, from 2005, she dedicated herself entirely to her artistic calling. Lisa has worked and lived in Japan, Mexico, the U.S., Canada, Switzerland, France, places and experiences which have all influenced her thinking and sensibility. She now resides in London. Very attached to her alma mater, she is on the Advisory Boards of the Stanford Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies and the Stanford School of Earth Sciences.
About her creations, Lisa writes: My art delves into what it is to be human in this increasingly disconnected-connected world. Capturing live moments is critical to me. The advent of Mobile art tools gives me the freedom to draw and paint immediate visuals that would be impossible with traditional media.
Lisa Cirenza will discuss her past and future art projects (among which at Apple & Stanford University) and her work Ubu Returns, a satirical socio-political mirror of the Trump era, created on iPad with tools from 4 different apps, digitally painted and woven together in more than 40 layers.

in partnership with Dartmouth Club of France and IMD Alumni Association
is pleased to invite you to a very topical talk
Rethinking Cyberwar and Cybersecurity
with IT security expert
Doug Mc Lean
Stanford BA, MS, Dartmouth MBA
Global VP at Seculert
Thursday May 28, 2015 – 7:00 pm
Cybersecurity is a major priority for all governments, companies and individuals. The information security industry generates a little more than $70 billion per year in revenue and is growing ~10% per year. Nearly all of the growth is driven by the fact that the industry, for the most part, is failing to protect the individuals and enterprises, enabling the massive data breaches seen at companies such as Target, Sony, Blue Cross and hundreds of other public sector and private enterprises.
Cybercriminal gangs are now better funded and more technically sophisticated than many of the companies they target... Recent research indicates that proxy devices supposed to stop malware and virus fail to perform as designed 15-90% of the time.
Doug McLean will discuss recent developments against cyber espionage, intellectual property loss, cyber terrorism... and what large enterprises and individuals can do to protect themselves.
Doug McLean serves as the Global VP of Marketing
at Seculert, a leading IT security company based in Israel and California. Previously Doug served as McAfee’s Senior Director of Product & Solutions Marketing for Global Threat Intelligence & McAfee Labs, VP of Online Operation and
Products at PGP Corporation before its acquisition by Symantec. Earlier, he was the VP of Marketing at Postini, a leading anti-spam service provider since acquired
by Google. Doug McLean has also held executive positions in Marketing and Product Development at Apple, Xerox, and Hewlett-Packard.
The talk will be followed by a cocktail reception with champagne

are honored to invite you to an
Exceptional Talk
by
Lobsang Sangay
Prime Minister of Tibet
L
obsang Sangay is the second most powerful Tibetan leader after the Dalai Lama. Sikyong Sangay, democratically elected, came into the limelight in 2011 when the Dalai Lama decided to abdicate political responsibility. Born in India, in a refugee community, he is the first Tibetan to have studied at Harvard University, where he obtained his LL.M and doctoral degree in law.
Prime Minister Lobsang Sangay will speak on
The Future of Relations between Tibet, the United States and Europe
In February 2015, welcoming the Dalai Lama to the White
House, President Obama described him as one “who inspired us to speak up for the freedom and dignity of all human beings.” A 3rd visit criticized by
China. What can be the relationship between the exiled government of Tibet, the U.S. and European countries?
Discussions will also extend to
The Third Pole and Climate Change
The Third Pole (as scientists call Tibet), also known as the
Roof of the World, is the water tower of Asia. Its melting ice threatens the lives of 1.5 billion people, a major topic in view of France hosting the 21st
climate conference this year.

Fred Turner
Director of Stanford Program
in Science, Technology and Society
Stanford Associate Professor of Communication & by courtesy of Art and Art History
to his fascinating Talk in Paris
The Democratic Surround
From Counterculture to Cyberculture
Professor Turner challenges us to think about the lines between information, entertainment, art and propaganda. He sheds new light on how our networked culture came to be. For a generation of historians, the psychedelic sixties explosion of creative energy and freedom represented a direct revolt against the social restraint and authoritarian hierarchy of the early Cold War years. Fred Turner makes a different case and reconnects the immersive, multi-mediated environments of the 1960’s to the decades that preceded them, starting with World War II and the use of media by fascist leaders. In the same vein, he demonstrates how mass communication techniques and computers, which embodied the bleak tools of war propaganda, have come with the dawn of the Internet in the 1990’s to represent a collaborative and digital utopia – “the virtual community” - close to the communal ideals of the hippies. He shows how important media has become to the design of collective experiences and forms of democratic citizenship.
A graduate of Brown, Columbia and UC San Diego, Fred Turner worked as a journalist for over ten years writing for the Boston Phoenix and Boston Sunday Globe, then turned to academia. He taught Communication at Harvard and MIT before joining Stanford University. His books include the widely acclaimed From Counterculture to Cyberculture, The Rise of Digital Utopianism, The Democratic Surround: Multimedia and American Liberalism
