(Title of the Thesis)* BECKONING BODIES, MAKING SUBJECTS: INTERACTIVE AND IMMERSIVE TECHNOLOGIES IN CANADIAN MUSEUMS, 1967-2014 by May Chew A thesis submitted to the Department of Cultural Studies In conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (March, 2015) Copyright © May Chew, 2015 Abstract Focusing on the uses of interactive and immersive technologies in Canadian exhibits from 1967 to the present, this dissertation investigates how embodied rites of cultural citizenship summon subjects to interface with nation and heritage in supposedly postcolonial and multicultural frameworks. The technologies I examine encompass the diverse processes and materials that render abstract notions of nation, heritage and citizenship into tangible archives that we encounter directly through our bodies. The first chapter centres on Iris Häussler’s immersive installation, He Named Her Amber, staged in Toronto’s historic Grange manor in 2008. This work elucidates the processes through which settler colonial history is rebranded through neoliberal Creative City discourses, and the audience is affectively positioned as naturalized settler who, unlike displaced Indigenous communities, is endowed with the right to occupy the home. Following this, the National Gallery of Canada’s introduction of the audio guide for its monumental 1967 Centennial exhibit provides the historical context from which to investigate the celebration and consecration of Canada’s technological modernity. This chapter analyzes how the construction of an interactive art-historical audio-scape facilitated the citizen’s entrance into national modernity through technological access and participation. The next chapter surveys the implementation of digital touchscreens at UBC’s Museum of Anthropology, arguing that the expanded haptic interface is drafted as both material and rhetorical apparatus to strategically proclaim inclusive, multicultural paradigms. Concurrently, this interface reveals the very limits of interaction, and the paradoxes of the liberal public sphere. Lastly, the dissertation turns to the visitor-generated projections at Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump (a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Alberta) in order to illustrate how motion-sensored, phantasmagoric projections work to locate but also unsettle the visitor’s body within official national—and “universal”—heritage frameworks. Here, I demonstrate how cultural citizenship is ii secured through the substantiating buttresses of heritage and archaeology, which emplace the visitor within an “ancient” landscape and narratology of nation which depends on inscription as much as erasure. Ultimately, this dissertation argues that these technological overtures of nation facilitate the everyday, quotidian encounters with violence which seduce subjects into—and out of—narratives of belonging. iii Acknowledgements This dissertation would not have been possible had it not been for my supervisor, Susan Lord, whose intellectual depth and rigour is matched only by her generosity of spirit and caring. I also benefitted immensely from the patient and insightful feedback from members of my committee: Lynda Jessup, Sarah E. K. Smith, Kirsty Robertson, and Dorit Naaman. It was Lynda who first pointed me towards the Acoustiguide, and this tip changed the course of my project for the better. A number of librarians and archivists also aided my research, including Wendy Gomoll at the Art Gallery of Ontario, Ann Stevenson at the Museum of Anthropology, and Cyndie Campbell at the National Gallery of Canada. Even faced with diminishing funding and resources, they were generous in their offers of time and advice. This research was supported through grants from Queen’s University and a Joseph-Armand Bombardier Canada Graduate Scholarship through the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council. I had the opportunity to hash out these ideas in their most fledgling forms in a number of conferences throughout recent years, of which two were especially impactful: Material Cultures at the University of Ottawa in 2011, and Objects of Affection at Princeton University in 2012. Here, I learned through trial by fire the various risks and exhilarations of interdisciplinary research. Another invaluable intellectual arena has been my Film and Media undergraduate classes at Queen’s. These confirmed both my love of teaching, and that I have much more to learn about how ideas can be pedagogically translated in ways that encourage engagement and also productively unsettle us. I extend my gratitude to friends and colleagues at Queen’s who in their myriad ways contributed to the eventuation of this tome. My fellow first hatchlings of Cultural Studies, especially Karl Hardy, Mimi Gellman, Mohamed Abdou, and Jeffrey Barbeau, all helped to hone iv my thinking, but more importantly, deepened my understanding of the ethical stakes of intellectual engagement. I am also particularly thankful for Claire Grady-Smith’s and Melissa D’Souza’s kind and unswerving friendships. I could not have gotten through this process without a number of enduring relationships as well as more effervescent ones which alighted in the most critical of times. To that end, I extend my gratitude to Lisa Figge, Alexis Forde, Meaghan Frauts, Erin Mandzak, Michelle Milani, Fumi Sakata, Claudia Sicondolfo, Alexandra Simpson, Jessica Jacobson-Konefall, Anice Wong, and Grace Wu. Ashley DeMartini and Negin Dahya provided an idyllic summer writing retreat which pushed me to work out some demons and finally start writing. To Marwa Fadol, words would not begin to express the depth of my love and appreciation. My family plied me with the encouragement, laughs, joy and gentle chiding that I needed to push through—or simply ride out—the bleakest periods. I am grateful for my uncle Teng Beng, the premier Dr. Chew and OG, who supported my path in academia when others might have thought it strange or unwise. I am also indebted to my grandmother, terrific aunts and army of cousins, but especially Chloe Flower, Hannah Lo and Lilian Snodgrass, three very different but equally formidable women who sustained me emotionally and/or intellectually when I needed it most. My brother James proves simply that political and aesthetic synchrony are ultimately irrelevant when it comes to love. My father teaches me every day about the importance of creativity, passion, and making the decision to open oneself up to the world. From Scott O’Connor, I continue to learn about love, gratitude, and commitment with regard to matters of the heart and mind alike. To my mother I owe absolutely everything. v Statement of Originality I hereby certify that all of the work described within this thesis is the original work of the author.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Monuments and Memories in Ontario, 1850-2001
    FORGING ICONOGRAPHIES AND CASTING COLONIALISM: MONUMENTS AND MEMORIES IN ONTARIO, 1850-2001 By Brittney Anne Bos A thesis submitted to the Department of History In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (September 2016) Copyright ©Brittney Anne Bos, 2016 ii Abstract Commemorations are a critical window for exploring the social, political, and cultural trends of a specific time period. Over the past two centuries, the commemorative landscape of Ontario reaffirmed the inclusion/exclusion of particular racial groups. Intended as static markers to the past, monuments in particular visually demonstrated the boundaries of a community and acted as ongoing memorials to existing social structures. Using a specific type of iconography and visual language, the creators of monuments imbued the physical markers of stone and bronze with racialized meanings. As builders were connected with their own time periods and social contexts, the ideas behind these commemorations shifted. Nonetheless, creators were intent on producing a memorial that educated present and future generations on the boundaries of their “imagined communities.” This dissertation considers the carefully chosen iconographies of Ontario’s monuments and how visual symbolism was attached to historical memory. Through the examination of five case studies, this dissertation examines the shifting commemorative landscape of Ontario and how memorials were used to mark the boundaries of communities. By integrating the visual analysis of monuments and related images, it bridges a methodological and theoretical gap between history and art history. This dissertation opens an important dialogue between these fields of study and demonstrates how monuments themselves are critical “documents” of the past.

  • Painting and Sculpture in Canada
    PAINTING AND SCULPTURE IN CANADA M. 0. HAMMOND HEN Louis Jobin, the wood carver of Ste. Anne de Beaupre, W passed away in 1928, at the age of 86, he severed a link which united primitive and modern art in Canada. Through his long life he had created figures in wood, the last of a noted line of artists in their own field. Ancient calvaires beside Quebec highways, fading wooden Indians in front of cigar stores, surviving figure­ heads on sailing ships, religious figures on the fa~ades of French­ Canadian churches, as at Ste Famille on Isle d 'Orleans, dating from 1749---these are relics of the wood-carving age in Canadian art, that may be found by diligent search. Jobin's own life spanned the developing years of the newer art in Canada, the art of painting. We may pass over the efforts of the Indians, visible in the decorative totem poles, carvings in bone, shell and ivory, and the painted ceremonial faces of the red men, and ignore the efforts of educated Frenchmen in the days of New France. If art in Canada lacked adequate support almost down to the relatively fat times of to-day, how much less could it thrive in the era of the explorer and the coureur-de-bois? There has been virtually a century of painting in Canada, from the days of Paul Kane, Cornelius Krieghoff and George T. Berthon, to the present, and half way down that century occurred in 1880 the organization of the Royal Canadian Academy, the jubilee of whose launching is being observed in this year 1930.

This dissertation is dedicated to my parents Tom and Katherine Davidson. Abstract In this ethnographic study of the dynamic lives of a population of monuments in Ottawa, I argue that long after they have been unveiled, monuments are imbued with many capacities to act. Monuments inspire loathing or affection, and settle or disturb dominant understandings of place, nation, race, and gender. I suggest that monuments have these affective capabilities because they operate like ‘stone bodies’ in their urban environments. Additionally, spirited with a certain life-force, monuments have the ability to haunt, unsettling relationships between place, memory, and belonging. These affective charges of monuments are felt and expressed through articulations of imperial and colonial nostalgia, feminist and other activist mobilities and various articulations of patriotism.
