SCIENCE: WAYS OF KNOWING AND SEEING

14:00 - 17:30 Thursday 21st Mar 2024 / 210 min

The day is curated by Kat Cizek.

We gather to widen lenses in science and cinema for the advancement of justice and equity — from earth to sky.

Science & Documentary from Earth to Sky

Documentarians and scientists use optical lenses to focus ways of seeing. Telescopes, microscopes, and now, the algorithmic lens. These lenses all augment and manipulate our vision for the world. With the hottest year ever, escalating violence, and rising authoritarianism, new (and ancient) ways of knowing have never been more urgent. This afternoon, we gather to widen lenses in science and cinema for the advancement of justice and equity — from earth to sky.
