Queen’s Graduate Student Documentaries

This Friday, Dec 11 @ 5pm, CFRC will air the third instalment of a special 6-part series entitled, Graduate Student Documentaries. For 6 weeks, during this timeslot, you will hear graduate students stepping outside of the normal confines of academic publications & conference presentations and distilling the essence of their research into audio documentaries complete with interviews, discussion, personal tales, creative audio production, and of course, academic discourse. This project was possible with funding from the Queen’s Office of the Principal, Dean of Student Affairs, SGPS, and the Queen’s Dept. of Graduate Studies. For this week’s episode, we present:

“The True Nature of the Universe“  James Silvester (PhD 2010, Astrophysics), will present a thought provoking discussion with Astronomers at both Queen’s University and The Royal Military College on the true nature of the universe, the existence of dark matter and our place in the universe.

This Week on Kingston Staged: Jenn Grant and Kyra and Tully

Thursday from 1:00-2:30, Kingston Staged brings music recorded live from Sydenham St United Church this past Saturday. It was a jam packed night of music with Kingston’s own Kyra and Tully as well as Jenn Grant from Halifax. Grant’s dreamlike voice was the perfect match with the expansive concert setting and warmed the brisk Saturday Kingston evening. Meanwhile, Kyra and Tully once again were a crowd favourite. 

Kingston Staged can be heard every Thursday from 1:00-2:30 on 101.9fm CFRC.
