Main St.\, Hillsboro SUMMARY:Subduction and Seduction: Upping the Appeal of Earthquake Messaging DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Associate Professor of Geological Science at L ewis &\; Clark College\, Liz Safran\, explores the role that visual me dia can play in helping the Pacific Northwest become an "earthquake cultu re." She will dive into the origins of the hazards we face and some of th eir potential impacts\; explore the power and pitfalls of existing disast er preparation messaging\; and tour you through her own experiments into what people take away from media\, what motivates them to act\, and what role the imaginary can play in grasping the real. Liz is a geomorphologi st – a geologist who studies how landscapes evolve. She joined the Envi ronmental Studies Program at Lewis &\; Clark College in 2000. Liz's pa st research focused on erosion by water and landslides\, but her most rec ent work on Cascadia earthquake-related communication is an interdiscipli nary collaboration with professors in Psychology and Rhetoric and Media S tudies. For Liz\, this collaboration was inspired by the close connection s with colleagues and the thinking across boundaries that life in an inte rdisciplinary program at a liberal arts college fosters. Originally from the Boston area\, Liz got her bachelor's degree from Harvard University\, her M.Sc. from the University of Washington\, and her PhD from the Uni versity of California at Santa Barbara. When not obsessing over the Casca dia earthquake\, Liz is apt to be swimming\, studying Japanese\, running\ , or playing taiko drums. Event will be held at the Venetian Theatre and Bistro\, 253 E.
