The Vanishing Worlds of Audubon

DML - Treasure Room
Add to Calendar 2023-03-02 16:00:00 2023-05-30 17:00:00 The Vanishing Worlds of Audubon When John James Audubon was working on his four-volume Birds of America in the 1820s–1830s, ornithological conservation of any kind was hardly discussed, particularly when the birds he described seemed so overwhelmingly abundant: “The air was literally filled with pigeons; the light of noon-day was obscured as by an eclipse.” Since then, human threats to avian wildlife have mounted, as many species have been hunted to extinction or near-extinction for food, sport, and fashion—or threatened by urban development, climate change, and overuse of fertilizers and pesticides.

Living in a Simulation

Time:  3pm
Ahmanson Lab | Leavey Library, 3rd floor (LVL 301)
Add to Calendar 2023-03-28 17:00:00 2023-03-28 17:00:00 Living in a Simulation The topic of whether or not we are living in a simulation has garnered a lot of attention in recent years. Scientists and philosophers have weighed in on the matter, with some arguing that it is statistically likely that we are living in a computer-generated reality. Areas of conversation may include: What are the arguments for and against the idea that our reality is a simulation? What are the implications of this idea and what could it mean for our understanding of the universe and our place within it? What are the ways in which this concept has been explored in popular culture, such as in the film "The Matrix"? 03:00 pm 04:00 pm America/Los_Angeles public
