SUMMARY:Poincaré's Legacy: Predictions on Time Scales Ranging from Milliseconds to Billions of Years
DESCRIPTION:Greg Laughlin\, Professor of Astronomy\, Yale University will discuss and connect two long-standing\, and at first glance\, entirely unrelated\, problems of prediction: (1) the long-term dynamical stability of the Solar System\, and (2) price movements and volatility in financial markets. These phenomena are radically different\, but share a key common basis in the random walk\, and the study of both can be traced directly back to the work of Henri Poincaré.

SUMMARY:Mathematics--It's As Easy as Pi!
DESCRIPTION:Mathematics can be tasty! It’s a way of thinking\, and not just about numbers. Through unexpectedly connected examples from music\, juggling\, and baking\, Eugenia Cheng\, Ph.D.\, will show that math can be made fun and intriguing for all\, through hands-on activities\, examples that everyone can relate to\, and funny stories. Cheng\, a mathmetician\, concert pianist\, author and yes–baker–will present surprisingly high-level mathematics\, including some advanced abstract algebra usually only seen by math majors and graduate students. There will be a distinct emphasis on edible examples. Suitable for all ages including keen children. \n  \n \nDr Eugenia Cheng is Scientist In Residence at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She won tenure in Pure Mathematics at the University of Sheffield\, UK\, where she is now Honorary Fellow. She has previously taught at the universities of Cambridge\, Chicago and Nice and holds a PhD in pure mathematics from the University of Cambridge.

SUMMARY:A screening and talk by British visual artist Simon Starling
DESCRIPTION:When:\nThursday\, November 30\, 2017 7:00–9:00 p.m.\n\n\nWhere:\nLogan Center\, Screening Room 201\n915 East 60th Street\, Chicago\, IL\n\n\nDescription:\nA screening and talk by British visual artist Simon Starling as part of the University–wide CP–1 commemoration. Since emerging from the Glasgow art scene in the early 1990s\, Simon Starling has established himself as one of the leading artists of his generation\, working in a wide variety of media (film\, installation\, photography) to interrogate the histories of art and design\, scientific discoveries\, and global economic and ecological issues\, among other subjects. The recipient of the 2005 Turner Prize\, Starling has had major exhibitions in Kunsthallen and museums throughout the world\, and his work can be found in the collections of some of the world’s leading art institutions. Starling will screen two of his recent films\, Project for a Masquerade (Hiroshima) (2010)\, a complex multi-media installation\, in part on a quintessential Chicago story concerning the early days of nuclear energy development and the monument designed by Henry Moore commemorating its discovery\, and another film related to the Masquerade titled\, At Twilight. Joshua Abrams and his group\, Natural Information Society\, will perform live to the Hawk Dance\, which is part of At Twilight. For Project for a Masquerade (Hiroshima)\, Starling has connected the idea of the mask to Japanese Noh theater and worked with a Noh mask-maker\, Yasuo Miichi\, in Osaka to create a set of masks that fuse traditional Noh masks with characters both historical and fictional who were contemporary to Moore. \nPresented by the Arts\, Science & Culture Initiative\, the Gray Center for Arts & Inquiry\, the Department of Visual Arts\, and the Film Studies Center. The “Arts and the Nuclear Age” lecture series is partially supported by the Franke Institute for the Humanities. \nMore information\n\n\n\nCost:\nFree\n\n\nContact:\nUChicago Arts\n773-702-2787\n \n\n\nInteract:\nTweet about this event before\, during\, and after this event by using hashtags: #uchicago Nuclear75\n\n\nTag:\nFeatured – Arts\, Screenings\, Lectures\, Featured – Homepage\, Featured – Homepage/Students\, Arts\, Research\, CP1\, Featured Research\n\n\nNotes:\nPersons with disabilities who need an accommodation in order to participate in this event should contact the event sponsor for assistance.

SUMMARY:In Awe of the Northern Lights
DESCRIPTION:Since 2012 astronomer José Francisco Salgado has been photographing the Northern Lights from Canada\, Alaska\, and Iceland\, as part of his work communicating science through the arts. So far\, his Northern Lights films set to music have been presented with orchestras in 13 cities in four countries and have reached a combined audience of 130\,000 people. In this lecture\, Dr. Salgado will speak about the physical processes behind the mesmerizing auroras and the experience of photographing them from subarctic Canada biannually. Just in time for the Holidays\, you will get to experience the magic of the Northern Lights set to music while learning about the science behind these spectacular celestial displays–and what it takes to capture these awe-inspiring images. ‘Tis the season for science-inspired art! \n \nJosé Francisco Salgado is an Emmy-nominated astronomer (BS in Physics\, Univ. of Puerto Rico; Ph.D. in Astronomy\, Univ. of Michigan)\, experimental photographer\, visual artist\, and public speaker who creates multimedia works that communicate science in engaging ways. As the Executive Director and co-founder of KV 265\, a non-profit science and arts education organization\, Salgado collaborates with orchestras\, composers\, and musicians to present films that provoke curiosity and a sense of wonder about the Earth and the Universe. \nHis “Science & Symphony” films have been presented in 180 concerts and have reached a combined audience of more than 375\,000 people in concert halls\, museums\, and lecture halls spanning more than 85 cities in 15 countries. Orchestras that have presented these works include the Chicago Symphony Orchestra\, Boston Pops\, the San Francisco Symphony\, New World Symphony\, and the Orchestra Teatro Regio Torino. His first two films were named by the International Astronomical Union and UNESCO as Special Projects for the International Year of Astronomy (IYA2009). In 2012 his film “Gustav Holst’s The Planets” was chosen for Ravinia Festival’s One Score\, One Chicago initiative. In 2014\, his collaboration with composer Christopher Theofanidis\, “The Legend of the Northern Lights” was premiered with Grant Park Orchestra to critical acclaim in front of 32\,000 people. In 2016\, his short film “Carol of the Lights” was commissioned by Keith Lockhart and Boston Pops and presented 33 times to almost 75\,000 people. \nFrom 2006 until 2008 Salgado hosted “Nuestra Galaxia”\, a weekly astronomy news segment on Univision Chicago (WGBO) for which he received an Emmy nomination. Salgado also produces and presents short science films with musician/composer Tom Bailey (from British pop group Thompson Twins) as part of the audiovisual ensemble Bailey-Salgado Project\, and with harp duo Beyond Pluck. \nAs an experimental photographer\, Salgado has visited more than 30 scientific sites in places including the South Pole\, the Atacama desert\, the French Pyrenees\, and the South African Karoo and has contributed visuals to documentaries produced for the History\, Discovery\, BBC\, and National Geographic channels. As a public speaker\, he has given presentations about science and art in all seven continents\, including a presentation at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. \n \nThis program is presented in partnership with The Radler\, who have generously allowed us the use of their facilities for free. Please consider supporting the restaurant by purchasing drinks and/or food while you are enjoying the program so that the partnership continues to be mutually beneficial. Thank you for your consideration!

SUMMARY:Chemistry of Coffee - 2017-12-16
DESCRIPTION:Politicians don’t talk about it\, but perhaps the most important stimulus to the US economy comes in a cup – the coffee cup. Millions consider the ancient and awesome bean critical to their daily productivity. If you’re a coffee drinker\, come be a coffee thinker – and coffee scientist – to learn about this fascinating elixir. \nIllinois Science Council brings back our popular “Chemistry for Adults” series in collaboration with Second Chance Coffee Company for a unique Chemistry of Coffee event with Dr. Shelby Hatch (ISC’s Chemist-in-Residence) and the coffee experts behind the fantastic I Have a Bean coffee. Whether you’re a daily connoisseur or just occasionally partake\, come get the inside scoop on the coffee bean. \nThis event is not just a talk or tasting (although there will definitely be tasting!). You will engage in hands-on chemistry experiments and leave with insider info to improve your morning coffee routine and dazzle your friends with your knowledge. Through discussion and experimentation\, you’ll learn about: the selection of the coffee bean; the process of roasting; particle size and surface area; chemical changes that take place in roasting and brewing; concentrations (dosage); temperature; pre-infusion (time and volume); and find out what is most important of these for taste. No science prerequisite is necessary\, only curiosity! \nTake this opportunity to come to the Loop on a Saturday and experience the Christkindlmarket\, Chicago’s largest open-air Christmas festival on Daley Plaza or the many shopping and entertainment options in and around Block 37. Space is limited – sign up now! \nSecond Chance Coffee Company was founded in Wheaton\, IL in 2007 to accomplish two things—roast and distribute truly exceptional coffee\, and help transform the lives of post-prison people in the process.

SUMMARY:Winter Solstice
DESCRIPTION:It’s the scientific start to winter in the Northern Hemisphere\, when this half of the world tilts away from the sun. The Sun’s direct light will hit as far south on Earth as it does all year – on the Tropic of Capricorn\, which lies at 23.437 degrees south of the Equator. You guessed it\, that is the same angle as the Earth’s tilt relative to the Sun.
