SUMMARY:Interdisciplinary Encounters Launch Evening
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, May 6\, 2026\, the Hexagram Network will launch the 4th edition of the Interdisciplinary Encounters. \n  \nThis will be the opportunity to discover the program\, which will unfold from April 13 to June 12\, 2026\, in a particularly vibrant manner: in total\, it comprises more than 20 activities. \nOrganized under the theme Commonalities\, this edition will highlight cutting-edge research‑creation practices emerging from Québec’s university communities. Grounded in material\, embodied\, and situated methodologies\, research‑creation fosters a rich dialogue between the arts\, cultures\, and technologies. It invites us to rethink the commons as a dynamic space of relationships\, responsibilities\, and collective imaginaries in the face of contemporary crises. \nThe launch evening will open with remarks from Hexagram’s co‑directors\, offering an opportunity to discover the full program of workshops\, talks\, exhibitions\, performances\, and roundtable discussions that will energize our spring. \nJoin us in a warm\, welcoming atmosphere conducive to exchange\, while enjoying a bite to eat and a drink shared with our research community. \n  \n🎟️ Spots are limited\, book a spot here. \n  \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Celebrating Ten Years of Milieux!
DESCRIPTION:On April 30th\, the Milieux Institute officially turns ten! \nA decade of research-creation is a milestone worth celebrating — and what better way than by returning to where it all began? In this spirit\, we’ve invited each cluster to respond to a list of keywords\, concepts\, names (some very abstract) that came out the early days of naming the institute\, and to answer that provocation in any form they chose. \nWe invite all members (faculty\, students and staff) to join us for an evening of celebration of a decade of research-creation\, as we collectively discover what our clusters have been working on for the past weeks. \n🥂 We’ll have light refreshments and food! \n🎟️ If you haven’t already\, please make sure you RSVP for this event as spots are limited! \n  \nThis event will officially kick off the celebrations as we’re planning a bigger event in the upcoming fall. \n  \n📅 April 2\, 2026 \n⏱️ 5–7 PM \n📍 Milieux Institute \n  \n
