SUMMARY:Watercolour Solar System Workshop
DESCRIPTION:LISTEN UP – The Windsor Workshop is entering previously unexplored territory!\nBuckle yourself in\, as you are about to witness one of the greatest workshops in history – when art and science collide… are you ready for the ride? \nIntroducing a “Watercolour Solar System”. A watercolour / painting workshop like no other. A science lesson with a twist. \nOn Saturday 18 August\, as part of Australia’s National Science Week\, you will have an out-of-this-universe opportunity to create a watercolour solar system poster (complete with custom made wooden hanging rails). \nJoin us and Artists\, Sarah Hankinson and Kate Rijs as they explore a series of techniques designed specifically to replicate the planets in our solar system. Alongside this creative duo\, will be Dr Jasmina Lazendic-Galloway\, lecturer in the School of Physics and Astronomy (Monash University)\, and creator of the popular massive open online course “How to Survive on Mars”\, as she guides you through a science lesson comparable to nothing on this good earth. The result – a supernova of the creative kind….

SUMMARY:Why You're Not Dead Yet
DESCRIPTION:Neuroscientist Dave Farmer gives a comedic\, educational talk about the arse end of the brain (aka the brainstem) filtered through Jackson Voorhaar’s non-educational comedy mind to help disseminate the information to the layidiot. Thanks for not laughing at disseminate. \nWhy You’re Not Dead Yet is an infotainment/storytelling/comedy mash performed by David Farmer\, a Scottish (but also Australian) neuroscientist and Jackson Voorhaar\, an eight-time Melbourne International Comedy Festival & two-time Edinburgh Fringe comedy veteran. \nDave gives a comedic informational talk\, aimed at the layperson\, on the  subconscious functions of the brain stem – Dave’s particular area of expertise – with detours into the origin of Frankenstein\, the 18th century Italians that invented the battery by accident\, and Dave’s insecurity in party settings. \nThe brainstem the area of the brain that regulates things like your heart rate\, your blood pressure and your breathing. Scientists that study fancy things like consciousness would call this ‘housekeeping’ but Dave calls it ‘Why You’re Not Dead Yet’. All the while\, this information is filtered through Jackson’s\, non-scientific comedy mind to help disseminate the information to the layidiot. Thanks for not laughing at disseminate.

SUMMARY:The Dynamic Brain
DESCRIPTION:Find out why the brain is the most incredible organ in your body. \nIt is said that you are not the same person you were six months ago. Cells in your skin\, your heart and your blood – all across your body – die and are replaced every day. Everywhere\, that is\, except your brain. Your brain is amazingly plastic – it continually learns\, adapts and changes as you do. Yet all of this occurs using the same brain cells that you were born with. How is this possible? One process underlies our ability to learn\, our memory\, and recovery from disease and injury. Join us to find out how your brain is the most incredible organ in your body. \nDr Matt Sykes from Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute will talk about his recent research on the Dynamic Brain at a free talk at the Library during National Science Week 2018.

SUMMARY:SCI-FI[LM]: Ex Machina
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence isn’t a thing of the future anymore – self-taught A.I. is already smarter than humans at gaming\, life-like interactive sex robots are in high demand\, and Google Assistant can switch the lights in your home on and off at your request. Does A.I. make our lives more perfect? \nJoin us for a brief chat with PhD candidate and physiotherapist Jessica Williams followed by a screening of Ex Machina. \nEx Machina synopsis \nCaleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson)\, a programmer at an internet-search giant\, wins a competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s brilliant and reclusive CEO\, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac). \nUpon his arrival\, Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing Test –  charging him with evaluating the capabilities\, and ultimately the consciousness\, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence. \nThat experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander)\, a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional intelligence proves more sophisticated — and more deceptive — than the two men could have imagined.

SUMMARY:Science Festival - Tiny Leaps Over Deep Chasms: How to be a Sustainability Leader
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr Adam Bumpus\, Senior Lecturer in Environment and Innovation from the School of Geography. \nWe are at an unprecedented time in the history of humankind. We know that disruption is all around us and challenging the way that we live\, the economies that we work in\, and the environment that supports us. \nWe need to innovate and connect or die. But we don’t know how to do this within the timeframes needed and within the paradigms we have currently. \nIt’s clear that we need a new sustainable business way of doing\, but despite the rhetoric largely this still is not happening. This is why we need to start taking some tiny leaps – for our own paths and own happiness. This talk is part of a series of talks on how we as people and businesses will thrive in the new economy. It places you as the CEO to create change around\, and within\, you. \nThis talk is for anyone who wants to understand how we can make our world more sustainable (even if you’re not in sustainability\, you are part of sustainability)\, and the need to take tiny leaps many times a day. It gives the context of how to become this person\, the tools and thinking you can use\, and some examples of how I did this in different contexts. Its open and honest and gives you a pathway to do this. \nSee the full list of events for Science Festival.

SUMMARY:Launch: Balloon to the Edge of Space
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate National Science Week with a trip to space! \nThis workshop will be a fun and interactive exploration of space\, technology and how space impacts our modern life. \nThis will culminate in the launch of a high altitude balloon – fitted with a camera balloon that we will send to the edge of space. This involves a helium weather balloon with a payload that includes a GPS tracker (to follow the journey)\, a camera to capture the action\, and a little space traveller toy. We expect the balloon to reach ~ 30km before bursting and descending with a parachute back to Earth. \nFor teachers or groups – please confirm via email to Julian O’Shea so we know who to expect and to arrange any logistics. \n*Balloon launch subject to weather conditions and CASA approval.

SUMMARY:Intersection of Science and Experimental Art
DESCRIPTION:A showcase event investigating the intersections of Science and Experimental Arts Practice will be held at Geelong within the Waurn Ponds Library meeting space. The performance and workshop will be followed with a chance for the audience to meet with the performers and carry this momentum in the creation of an inspiring space for discussion. Performances will programmed within the scope of areas such as technology (both science and art platforms)\, acoustic ecology and neuroscience. Neurologist and comedian David Farmer will MC the event and add a comedic look at his world of neuroscience. \nMusical performance/workshop \nVicki Hallett – Acoustic Ecology on the African Continent \nJem Savage – Arduino\, Max/MSP and the Isomorphic Pitch Shifting Interface \nDavid Farmer is a Scottish Neuroscientist based at the Florey Institute in Melbourne and is most knowledgeable about the brainstem. This is the area of the brain that regulates things like your heart rate and your blood pressure. It also generates the rhythm of your breathing. Scientists that study fancy things like consciousness would call this ‘housekeeping’ but David calls it ‘why you are not dead’. \nDavid is a passionate public speaker and advocate for science. His recently debuted show ‘Why You’re Not Dead Yet’ enjoyed a sell-out run at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. He won the Victorian state heat (also clinching the people’s choice award) at the ‘FameLab’ competition after delivering a 3 minute talk on his research to a lay audience. He was named runner up at the Australian National Final. He has since made radio appearances on ABC 774 (Lindy Burns\, Libby Gore) and ABC 720 (Gillian O’Shaughnessy)\, RRR’s Einstein-A-Go-Go\, the Sci-Gasm podcast\, Diffusion Science Radio and was once interviewed by comedian Colin Lane for his web-series of ‘Cup of Tea with Col’. \n

SUMMARY:Three Years of Winter: The (Scientific) Story Behind Shelley's Frankenstein
DESCRIPTION:“It was a dark and stormy night…” …hold on a minute\, let’s ditch this cliched horror story! It was actually a hot and tropical April in 1815\, prior to the terror that would engulf the inhabitants of Sumbawa\, Indonesia. \nIn this gothic tale that weaves art and science\, Monash University’s Dr James Driscoll will focus on the geological and climatic catastrophe that created the conditions for the writing of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley\, three years later and half a world away. \nWe’ll also explore the science of catastrophic volcanic eruptions and comment on the present volcanic hazards of Victoria.
