"Cambridge Talks X | Bound and Unbound: The Sites of Utopia" PhD Colloquium

source: Harvard GSD    2016年4月26日
4/14/16
In the five hundred years since the publication of Thomas More’s Of A Republic’s Best State and of the New Island of Utopia (1516), the project of imagining an ideal society has emerged as simultaneously regenerative and devastating on multiple fronts: for the concept of the polity, for the composition of social fabrics, and, most relevant from the vantage of the design disciplines, for the formation of buildings, cities, and territories. This year’s Cambridge Talks, now in its tenth edition, aims to provide a spectrum of exemplary instances of utopia’s modern guise.

In the main conference panels, we bring together speakers to address the rivalry between those utopian endeavors that organize space mainly through social relations and production, and those whose expansive impulse searches out some form of technical mastery over spatial configuration. In other words, utopia can be understood as either embodied or totalizing, bound or unbound. By taking examples from the 19th and 20th centuries, the case studies presented here—from communes and plantations to infrastructural projects and global ecologies—exhibit various attempts to imagine social conditions alongside spatial ones. A concluding discussion will touch upon the philosophical and theoretical ramifications of utopia today.

April 14, 3 PM – 6 PM

Summer Science Exhibition 2016: CANBUILD - deconstructing cancer

source: The Royal Society     2016年6月9日
Meticulous models of cancer's life-support system.
In cancer, normal cells are recruited and corrupted to act as a life-giving microenvironment for the tumour. Our exhibit shows how we’ve deconstructed tumours, used the information to begin to re-build cancer in the lab, in ways that will allow us to test vital new treatments that target its life-support.
Our free, week-long festival (Monday 4 July - Sunday 10 July) features 22 curated exhibits and a series of inspiring talks and activities for all ages.

Preventing Gun Violence: Public Health Perspectives | The Forum at HSPH

source: Harvard University   2016年1月27日
This Forum event examined gun violence through a public health prism. Panelists talked about patterns of violence, including social forces such as the grinding violence, crime and poverty that disproportionately affect disadvantaged communities. Panelists also discussed President Obama’s recent announcements about gun violence prevention, prompted by a series of mass shootings as well as ongoing urban violence. And they explored dynamics at state and Congressional levels that are impacting public safety measures now and moving forward.
Presented January 26, 2016 in Collaboration with Reuters.

探索15-5講座：同步現象的歷史、數學和應用/莊重教授

source: 臺大科學教育發展中心     2016年6月3日
說明在自然界同步現象無所不在。如P細胞(pace maker cell)如何協調規律的心跳；如上億個電子走向鎖步（lockstep)使得超導現­象發生。動植物中如螢火蟲同步發光；森林中的樹木同步開花結果，鳥羣的等速有隊形的同­步飛行。甚至人們也發現有癲癎症腦中某區域的細胞羣有相位同步的現像；自閉症卻因某區­域的細包羣無法同步。

這個演講將先談同步現象的歷史,我們從Huygens(1629-1695)觀察到擺­鐘的反同步現象談到近代幾位同步現象的主要貢獻者。接著我們將談及這些人如何將這些問­題數學和建模式化。這部分我們將少用複雜的方程式而盡量以直觀而文字呈現出來。
最後我們將談及同步現象的一些應用。其中我們會提及混沌同步的應用，這個應用是己可商­業化，是由交通大學丘成桐中心工作團隊研發完成。

David Sumpter: "Soccermatics" | Talks at Google

source: Talks at Google    2016年6月1日
David Sumpter joined us in London to talk shot statistics and the geometry of passing, using complex maths to reveal the inner workings of the beautiful game that is football*.
*Or soccer, depending on where you live.

About the book
Football – the most mathematical of sports. From shot statistics and league tables to the geometry of passing and managerial strategy, the modern game is filled with numbers, patterns and shapes. How do we make sense of these? The answer lies in the mathematical models applied in biology, physics and economics. Soccermatics brings football and mathematics together in a mind-bending synthesis, using numbers to help reveal the inner workings of the beautiful game.
- How is the Barcelona midfield linked geometrically?
- What’s the similarity between an ant colony and Total Football, Dutch style?
- What can defenders learn from lionesses?
- How much of a score line is pure randomness and how much is skill?
- How can probability theory make you money at the bookies?
Welcome to the world of mathematical modelling, expressed brilliantly by David Sumpter through the prism of football. No matter who you follow – be it Bristol City, Burton Albion, Barnet or Barrow, or one of the Premier League big boys – you’ll be amazed at what mathematics has to teach us about the world’s favourite sport.

About the author
David Sumpter is professor of applied mathematics at the University of Uppsala, Sweden. Originally from London, he completed his doctorate in Mathematics at Manchester, and held academic research positions at both Oxford and Cambridge before heading to Sweden.
An incomplete list of the applied maths research projects on which David has worked include pigeons flying in pairs over Oxford; the traffic of Cuban leaf-cutter ants; fish swimming between coral in the Great Barrier Reef; and dancing honey bees from Sydney. In his spare time, he exploits his mathematical expertise in training a successful under-nines football team, Uppsala IF 2005. David is a Liverpool supporter with a lifelong affection for Dunfermline Athletic.

Brian Christian & Tom Griffiths: "Algorithms to Live By" | Talks at Google

source: Talks at Google     2016年5月12日
Practical, everyday advice which will easily provoke an interest in computer science.
In a dazzlingly interdisciplinary work, acclaimed author Brian Christian and cognitive scientist Tom Griffiths show how the algorithms used by computers can also untangle very human questions. They explain how to have better hunches and when to leave things to chance, how to deal with overwhelming choices and how best to connect with others. From finding a spouse to finding a parking spot, from organizing one's inbox to understanding the workings of memory, Algorithms to Live By transforms the wisdom of computer science into strategies for human living.

Brian Christian is the author of The Most Human Human, a Wall Street Journal bestseller, New York Times editors’ choice, and a New Yorker favorite book of the year. His writing has appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Wired, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, and The Paris Review, as well as in scientific journals such as Cognitive Science, and has been translated into eleven languages. He lives in San Francisco.

Tom Griffiths is a professor of psychology and cognitive science at UC Berkeley, where he directs the Computational Cognitive Science Lab. He has published more than 150 scientific papers on topics ranging from cognitive psychology to cultural evolution, and has received awards from the National Science Foundation, the Sloan Foundation, the American Psychological Association, and the Psychonomic Society, among others. He lives in Berkeley.
On behalf of Talks at Google this talk was hosted by Boris Debic.
