  • SPIRITED THINGS: Sacred Arts of the Black Atlantic
    SPIRITED THINGS: Sacred Arts of the Black Atlantic TRAVELING EXHIBITION SERVICE 2 SPIRITED THINGS INTRODUCTION he ruthless triangular trade that flourished between the continents of Europe, Africa, and the Americas T brought millions of enslaved Africans to the Americas, where African priests—assimilating some of the practices and beliefs of the radically new cultures they encountered—gradually adapted their ancestral religions to their people’s new and dire circumstances. The Afro-Atlantic religions are products of Africans’ long-running cosmopolitanism, and represent a complex, syncretic response to the tragic beginnings of globalization. This exhibition explores a family of religions that emerged from the centuries-long turmoil and diaspora of the trans-Atlantic slave trade. TRAVELING EXHIBITION SERVICE 3 4 SPIRITED THINGS SPIRITED THINGS: Spirited Things explores a family of religions that evolved in the context SACRED ARTS OF of the trans-Atlantic slave trade. At its root are the ancestors of the Yorùbá people and their gods, called òrìṣà (in Yorùbá), orichas (Spanish), orixás THE BLACK ATLANTIC (Portuguese), or orishas (English). West African monarchs and merchants invoked the òrìṣà in rituals of healing and for the protection of their interests in the coastal trade with their European counterparts. Later, West Africans enslaved in the Caribbean and South America adapted these same gods to their own, more existential needs of mutual assistance, healing, and spiritual uplift, often in defiance of their captors’ attempts to suppress their ancestral traditions. They disguised and amplified their continued worship of African gods by combining them with similar Roman Catholic saints and indigenous spirits. This blending of African, European, and Native American iconography and practices is a hallmark of the religions of the African diaspora, which include Haitian Vodou, Cuban Santería (also called Regla de Ocha), Brazilian Candomblé, and Caribbean Spiritism.

  • THE UNIVERSITY of VERMONT Burlington, Vermont, USA
    CASE STUDY THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT Burlington, Vermont, USA FACTS THE FUTURE OF MANAGING Customer: The University CAMPUS-WIDE SECURITY PLANS of Vermont Many schools, colleges and universities rely on their video management systems (VMS) as the hub of their surveillance operations. However, as they look to the Partner: future and realize the benefit of taking an integrated approach to managing their CBORD Group campus-wide security plans, the road ahead can be unclear, with variety of systems Vertical Market: and solutions available at a wide range of price points. This was the challenge The Educational Facilities University of Vermont had been facing. Product: VisionHub THE CHALLENGE When beginning their search for solutions, it initially appeared the next logical step would be to deploy a physical security information management (PSIM) system. Senior Equipment Technician, Robert Cochran, has worked at the University CATcard office since 2014 and is responsible for the campus security infrastructure. He explains the decision-making process: “We looked closely at different PSIM systems and while they were powerful, they were also very expensive and didn’t match our requirements. What we ideally wanted to find was a VMS that was capable of being our core security management system." "VisionHub has delivered everything we hoped it would. It has been extremely beneficial to work so closely with the Professional Services Team at Qognify.” Robert Cochran, Senior Equipment Technician at The University of Vermont THE CHALLENGE (CONT.) THE The timing of the University’s search was perfect. Several months earlier, CUSTOMER Qognify had launched its next generation VMS. More than the average VMS, VisionHub is a VMS+ solution that received worldwide acclaim, Located in New England, winning recognition such as ‘CCTV System of the Year’ from the Security The University of Vermont & Fire Excellence Awards.
