SUMMARY:Dan Abrams with Megyn Kelly: Defending the Enemy
DESCRIPTION:The shots that rang out on a frigid Boston evening in March 1770 almost launched a revolution after British soldiers killed five colonists in cold blood. What exactly led to the incident has never been fully understood\, yet to the city’s angry residents\, there was only one possible outcome. \nA young attorney named John Adams\, however\, refused to allow his revolutionary zeal to overshadow the rule of law. Determined that the soldiers’ trial be fair\, the man who would become America’s second president defended them\, establishing principles that would soon become enshrined in our law. \nIn the riveting prose of Dan Abrams and David Fisher\, that trial becomes more than a historical footnote. As in their previous bestselling presidential legal historical tomes\, Abrams and Fisher use an original transcript from the trial to transport readers back in time\, capturing the integrity of a man who would help shape a nation. \nModerated by Megyn Kelly\, attorney and former anchor on Fox News and NBC. \n$30 includes a copy of the book

SUMMARY:Government Accountability: Transparency and Privacy
DESCRIPTION:Part of NYC’s Open Data Week 2020: How does New York City government encourage transparency and protect New Yorkers’ privacy? The City leverages large amounts of information to offer its services\, and New York State’s Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) and New York City’s Open Data Law require the City to make certain information and records public. At the same time\, the City’s Identifying Information Law makes sure it uses and shares identifying information responsibly. Come learn more about how FOIL\, the Open Data Law\, and the Identifying Information Law work together to enhance government accountability and build public trust. \nThis session will be presented by attorneys from the Mayor’s Office of Information Privacy and the NYC Department of IT & Telecommunications.

SUMMARY:Unrealism: New Figurative Painting
DESCRIPTION:Figuration is one of the oldest art forms\, but it continually evolves\, along with our changing understanding of human identity. Aria Dean\, Sam McKinniss\, Ebecho Muslimova A’10\, and Tschabalala Self discuss contemporary figurative painting of the last five years in a free\, public event. Alison Gingeras moderates. \nThe featured artists often source imagery from the Internet\, and draw on aesthetics developed in Internet-first channels. Digital techniques and affordances are incorporated into rendering processes with traditional media: brushstrokes are more precise\, lines are sharper\, and color is more highly keyed. In these works\, expressionism is located more in the composition than in the paint handling. \nThis event launches Rizzoli’s Unrealism: New Figurative Painting. Copies will be available for sale by The Strand.

SUMMARY:Can Time Heal Anything? Lee Mingwei and Dr. Lila Davachi
DESCRIPTION:What lingers in your heart after a loved one is lost? And what can this teach us about the ephemerality of life? \nIn his work The Letter Writing Project\, part of the Rubin’s exhibition Measure Your Existence\, artist Lee Mingwei invites visitors to pen a letter to a lost or absent loved one. The cathartic act of writing the unsaid is twofold\, as other museum visitors can choose to read the unsealed letters left at the installation. To further explore the mechanics of grief\, Lee takes the Brainwave stage with Dr. Lila Davachi to discuss the physical and mental experience of our own impermanence. \n

SUMMARY:The Science of Love
DESCRIPTION:Simons Foundation Presents Free Event: The Science of Love\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nNothing is more treasured — and mysterious — than the bond between mother and child. After a mother gives birth\, her brain and body change in ways that enable her to care for the new life. Bianca Jones Marlin examines the brain dynamics behind these changes\, some of which are ‘remembered’ in the genes and passed down for generations. In her talk\, she will challenge the age-old concept of ‘nature vs. nurture’ and show how a bridge between learned and innate animal behaviors is built. Audience members will also have an opportunity to participate using their senses to explore the real-time effects of neurochemicals in social learning. \nMarlin is a neuroscientist and postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University in the laboratory of Nobel Laureate Richard Axel\, where she investigates how traumatic experiences in parents affect the brain structure of their offspring. She holds a Ph.D. in neuroscience from New York University and dual bachelor’s degrees in biology and adolescent education from St. John’s University. As a graduate student\, her research focused on the vital bond between parent and child\, and she studied the use of neurochemicals\, such as the “love drug” oxytocin\, as a treatment to strengthen fragile and broken parent-child relationships. \nMarlin aims to utilize neurobiology and the science of learning to better inform both the scientific and educational community on how positive experiences dictate brain health\, academic performance and social well-being. Her research has been featured in the Los Angeles Times\, The Guardian and Scientific American and as one of Discover magazine’s “100 Top Stories of 2015.” \nSCHEDULE \n6:00 – 6:30 pm Doors open \n6:30 – 7:30 pm Talk + Q&A \n7:30 – 8:30 pm Refreshments

SUMMARY:Culture Of: Intimacy
DESCRIPTION:A Deep Dive Into The Spectrum Of Connection\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nWhen you read the word: intimacy what comes to mind? Is it something sexual? Something funny? Something sad? Fact. Nearly half of Americans have experienced deeper intimacy in their dreams than in real life. In nonfiction’s “Intimacy In America” Report\, 21% of Americans say they have no one in their lives they can be 100% themselves with. We’re craving intimate connections and yet avoiding them like the plague. Vulnerability seems to be “on trend” but when “everyone’s doing it\,” it almost feels inauthentic. Yeah…we feel that too. But we think there’s a better way. \nCome get comfortable with intimacy. Intimacy requires us to know ourselves before we can connect with another and ultimate with those around us. We’re exploring the spectrum of connection in three ways: self\, one-to-one and community. We’ll start with a few curated experiences then hear from dope speakers from all walks of life. A spoken word playwrighting wordsmith\, a painter\, an ex-dating coach\, an author and some surprises along the way. \nLocation \nA mansion filled with art. So yes we’re psyched. \nFood Partner \nDos Toros brings the best of the San Francisco taqueria experience to the rest of the country.

SUMMARY:The First AI Simulation of the Universe is Fast and Accurate — and We Don’t Know Why
DESCRIPTION:A full understanding of the evolution of the universe’s structure is one of the holy grails of modern astrophysics. Astrophysicists survey large volumes of the universe and compare the findings to computer simulations. Simulating the movement of billions of particles over billions of years is a daunting task\, however\, even when using the simplest physical models. \nIn this lecture\, Shirley Ho will discuss her team’s work building a deep neural network that learns from a set of pre-run numerical simulations and predicts the large scale structure of the universe. Extensive analysis demonstrates that their deep-learning technique outperforms the commonly used fast approximate simulation method in predicting cosmic structure in the non-linear regime. They also show that their method can accurately extrapolate far beyond its training data and predict structure formation for significantly different cosmological parameters. This ability to extrapolate outside its training set is highly unexpected and remains a mystery. \n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\n\nHo’s research interests have ranged from fundamental cosmological measurements to exoplanet statistics to using machine learning to estimate how much dark matter is in the universe. Ho has broad expertise in theory\, observation and data science. Her recent interest has been on understanding and developing novel tools in statistics and machine learning techniques and applying them to astrophysical challenges. Her goal is to understand the universe’s beginning\, evolution and ultimate fate.

SUMMARY:How Magic Works
DESCRIPTION:What does magic mean in the Information Age? The virtual world is becoming more essential and\, in some cases\, more important than the actual world. Over centuries\, magicians have experimented with the tension and possibilities created by what is actual versus what is perceived. What lessons can we learn from magic? In this talk\, magician Mark Mitton will explain to you how magic tricks work and what tools they might give us to survive in a society that asks us to act upon increasingly complex information. \nMark Mitton is a magician who is fascinated by using magic to better understand how we see the world. He performs at private functions and corporate events\, produces unique entertainment and educational programs around the world\, and explores the limits and potential of perception. His specialty is physical misdirection\, which can teach us about the surprises in science\, art and our daily lives.

SUMMARY:CRISPR Film Screening: Human Nature
DESCRIPTION:From executive producer Dan Rather and director Adam Bolt\, the co-writer and editor of the Oscar-winning film Inside Job\, comes the story of the biggest tech revolution of the 21st Century. And it isn’t digital\, it’s biological. \nA breakthrough called CRISPR has given us unprecedented control over the basic building blocks of life. It opens the door to curing diseases\, reshaping the biosphere\, and designing our own children. Human Nature is a provocative exploration of CRISPR’s far-reaching implications\, through the eyes of the scientists who discovered it\, the families it is affecting\, and the bio-engineers who are testing its limits. How will this new power change our relationship with nature? What will it mean for human evolution? To begin to answer these questions we must look back billions of years and peer into an uncertain future. \nJoin us at the New York Academy of Sciences for a screening of the film Human Nature to explore these questions and more. For more in-depth coverage of the latest in CRISPR technology join us for the scientific symposium CRISPR: New Frontiers.

SUMMARY:Taking on White Nationalist Violence
DESCRIPTION:Waves of white nationalist violence have spread across the nation\, from Charlottesville to Pittsburgh\, El Paso and beyond. Now\, a landmark lawsuit against the organizers of the 2017 Charlottesville march is taking on the leadership of this movement — asserting that they intentionally coordinated the violence that erupted\, thus breaking the law. \nLed by Roberta Kaplan (lead counsel on the Supreme Court case that led to the legalization of same-sex marriage) and Karen Dunn (a former federal prosecutor in Virginia)\, the legal action — filed against a broad range of neo-Nazis\, white supremacists and affiliated hate groups — exposes the individuals and organizations driving the wave of white supremacist hate and dismantles the infrastructure at the center of their movement. The suit is supported by the civil rights nonprofit Integrity First for America. \nJoin us for a discussion of the lawsuit and its potential to turn back the tide of hate with: \nRoberta Kaplan\, Co-Lead Counsel \nKaren Dunn\, Co-Lead Counsel  \nAmy Spitalnick\, Executive Director\, Integrity First for America  \nElizabeth Sines\, Plaintiff
