The Particle and The Wave: A Workshop at the Intersection of Physics and Identity
We are taught to be solid. To have solid identities. Race, gender and other social identities are discreet and reductionist approaches to categorizing identity. But can we also be wave-like? Amorphous and fluid. According to quantum physics we can be both. In this workshop we will explore parables of quantum physics that can inspire us to develop radical definitions of identity. We effectively become both the observed and observer as we witness the co-creation of new dimensions of self.
Science of and For the People
In physics, Power = Force over time. In society, Power = Influence over resources. Who has the influence over our knowledge systems and what effective does that have on the knowledge created? In this workshop we will unpack scientific narratives that stem directly out of oppressive cultural patterns. We will look at how these patterns have ostracized wisdom and scientific insight from non-westernized cultures and traditions. With this new lens and interactive activities participants can discover how to reclaim the scientific method as a tool for their own personal liberation.
Lasers, Portals, Entropy and Magic
Unearth the hidden magic that lies within the science of thermodynamics. Modern physics has created systems such as the computer and laser which are in fact based off of ancient technologies that are still in practice today. We will explore the fundamentals of creating these kinds resonant systems that can exists in both physical and emotional dimensions. Entropy and evolution will be relevant themes as we being to decolonize scientific language and the narratives that limit the possibility of infinite uncertainty. We will engage in a methodology to develop our own intuitive technologies that allow us to access, process and store information, matter and energy.
Science for a Post Capitalism Society
With all the impending doom on the scientific community, most recently with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, can and should we begin to imagine new futures for science? Yes, it’s easy to imagine the dystopic futures but could we also consider what positive alternatives might emerge? As our academic and research institutions lose more funding and accessibility how will we continue to do the work we care about? Mathematically speaking, times of great uncertainty are also times of great possibility. But in order for these possibilities to become realities we have to start with visioning, dialogue and organizing around what those futures look like.
