While growing up, her free time was spent traveling to festivals and fiddling contests throughout the Midwest where she learned from the likes of Pete McMahan, Cyril Stinnet, Lyman Enloe, Dwight Lamb, Amos Chase, and Lucy Pierce. Tricia is multi-instrumentalist who has studied with some of the great masters and is sought after as a performer, dance fiddler, and instructor. Howard Rains is a native Texas artist and the fourth generation to play on his fiddle.

Together, Spencer & Rains have performed and taught nationally and internationally, preserving and building upon the traditions of their region. The husband-and-wife duo are known for their twin fiddle harmony, which is a product of the influence of midwestern Scandinavian fiddlers Tricia heard as a child. At the same time, Howard’s distinct repertoire reintroduces listeners to the pre-contest styles of Texas fiddling. That same sense of harmony is in their vocals, as well, which they pull from all manner of American folk music.

Lecture delivered by Bijal J. Trivedi (Senior Science Editor, National Geographic; freelance journalist). As recently as 2012, cystic fibrosis was considered a fatal genetic lung disease with most patients dying in their 20s, if not much earlier. But beginning in the 1950s, four couples, desperate to find treatments for their sick children, launched a foundation that would eventually use venture philanthropy to develop a radical type of life-saving personalized medicine that works for 90 percent of Cystic Fibrosis patients. Other disease foundations are striving to replicate the model and the NIH is using the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s strategy to accelerate cures for diseases, rare and common.

Social connectivity structures and reinforces inequality in society but also provides a footprint of it. I will present two projects in which we analyze network structures to extract information about socioeconomic inequality. In the first project, we use correspondence analysis to infer Twitter users’ socioeconomic status from the accounts of commercial and entertainment brands in the US they follow. In the second project, we analyze SafeGraph data on physical store visits and co-visits in the US to investigate nuances of socioeconomic inequality in daily consumption. The projects demonstrate how we can both exploit and examine traces of economic and cultural consumption practices to understand an important manifestation of inequality in everyday life.
