A Celebration of the Art, Science and Inventions of Steve Mann @ Digifest
A Celebration of the Art, Science and Inventions of Steve Mann @ digifest 2004 : On The Move Introduction Since its inception in 2002 digifest has established itself as Canada’s premiere festival of digital culture and innovation, showcasing Canadian and international visionaries in the realms of digital art, science and design. Produced by The Design Exchange in partnership with Harbourfront Centre and the Ontario Science Centre, digifest 2004: On the Move will investigate the cultural implications of digital mobility and the nomadic nature of information and identity within connected culture. The economics, art and science of digital mobility will be examined by renowned innovators from the fields of engineering, industrial design, interactive film, graphic design, robotics, intelligent fashions and wireless gaming, each addressing one of our sub-themes: Home, Self and Tribe. Our Keynote Speaker at digifest 2004: On the Move will be Professor Steve Mann of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty at the University of Toronto. Professor Mann is internationally renowned for his contributions to art and science as the developer of the first wearable computer and as the driving force behind 3 decades of artistic and scientific experimentation as a pioneer in exploring life as a cyborg. Like so many Canadian visionaries, however, Steve Mann is better known abroad than he is at home. The co-curators of digifest, Paola Poletto and John Sobol, plan to change that by celebrating the extraordinary scope and quality of Steve Mann’s work at all three presenting venues of digifest 2004 – The Design Exchange, The Ontario Science Centre and Harbourfront Centre -– in a major retrospective and showcase. -

Toronto Has No History!’
‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY By Victoria Jane Freeman A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto ©Copyright by Victoria Jane Freeman 2010 ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY Doctor of Philosophy 2010 Victoria Jane Freeman Graduate Department of History University of Toronto The Indigenous past is largely absent from settler representations of the history of the city of Toronto, Canada. Nineteenth and twentieth century historical chroniclers often downplayed the historic presence of the Mississaugas and their Indigenous predecessors by drawing on doctrines of terra nullius , ignoring the significance of the Toronto Purchase, and changing the city’s foundational story from the establishment of York in 1793 to the incorporation of the City of Toronto in 1834. These chroniclers usually assumed that “real Indians” and urban life were inimical. Often their representations implied that local Indigenous peoples had no significant history and thus the region had little or no history before the arrival of Europeans. Alternatively, narratives of ethical settler indigenization positioned the Indigenous past as the uncivilized starting point in a monological European theory of historical development. i i iii In many civic discourses, the city stood in for the nation as a symbol of its future, and national history stood in for the region’s local history. The national replaced ‘the Indigenous’ in an ideological process that peaked between the 1880s and the 1930s. -

1991 L.M. Montgomery and the Railway King of Canada by Christy Woster As only a true fan of Lucy Maud Montgomery could understand, it is thrilling to walk over the paths that Maud once did, or to sit in a room that she once occupied. A lesser-known destination that Maud visited often is Kirkfield, Ontario. Kirkfield is near Maud's home in Leaskdale and Lindsay, Ontario. Still standing in Kirkfield is the home of Sir William MacKenzie, now open to the public as an Inn and Bed and Breakfast. Maud stayed here often as a guest of the MacKenzie family, and must have loved the beauty of the surroundings. Sir William MacKenzie was born in 1849 in the Kirkfield area to John and Mary MacKenzie. When he was three years old his mother died and he went to live with his aunt and uncle, Catherine and Donald Munro. He attended public school in North Eldon, and graduated from the high school in Lindsay. In 1868 he assumed a teaching position and tried his hand at teaching for a year. Not thinking that he would like to pursue this as a career, he tried several other vocations, running a general store, the lumber business and construction. He found construction to be to his liking and by his mid twenties he was working as a contractor. In 1871 he began his work as a railroad contractor and laid down rails from Maine to the prairies of Canada. In 1872 he married Margaret Merry in Lindsay, Ontario. William was of Scottish descent and Protestant, Mary was Irish and Roman Catholic and so they had a very secret wedding with only two guests -- strangers from off the street. -
