On behalf of Orlando Leibovitz,
We are planning an event titled Notions Of Time. A brief description is below. The proposed date(s) for the event are Friday December 3rd and Saturday December 4th, but the dates may be changed to sometime in early 2011. Part of the event involves speakers presenting ten minute talks on various concepts of time. We have two speakers who wish to discuss time in physics. Stephen Guerin will be speaking about time in Complexity science. We are still seeking speakers for the following topics: Time in Philosophy Geologic Time Biological time Time concepts in fiction and poetry Clocks, calendars and pendulums Psychological perceptions of time Time, infinity and mathematics Time in Buddhism Jung, time and synchronicity Time, stress and western culture Time in non western culture Time in Native American culture Time capsules Language and perception of time If you know of a potential speaker, please contact me. Ideas for other topics relative to time are most welcome, especially if you are suggesting a speaker for the topic. The presentations will be aimed at a general audience. We want more art/videos related to time concepts. Recommendations are welcome. Please send links or have the artist contact me. We would like to project poems and sayings about time on the walls and floors of The Complex. Please send me any suggestions. Although we have two speakers for topics in physics, more would be OK. Then we might devote one hour just to physics and the nature of time. Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions. Yes. EVENT DESCRIPTION The Santa Fe Complex http://sfcomplex.org/ is planning an event titled Notions Of Time. The event is an attempt to present various ideas on the notion of time as expressed in science, philosophy, human psychology and the arts. There are six to eight proposed talks on various aspects of time including physics, evolution, geology, the Greek philosophers, clocks and calendars, human psychological perceptions of time, literature and possibly other topics. Each talk will be 10-15 minutes in length. We will be projecting Godfrey Reggio's classic film, Koyaanisqatsi http://www.koyaanisqatsi.org/ and will display other video art related to the subject of time, including the work of Daniel Lee http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gR5EZYWGwfg The music department of The Santa Fe University of Art and Design will perform various musical compositions on the theme of time. Members of the new Mexico Symphony Orchestra will perform Messiaen's Quartet For The End Of Time. See links below.

Hello Orlando, Tyler et al-
Intriguing concept. (NPI) What's your time frame for contacting you off-list to discuss this? I have, of course, many ideas. Thanks- Tory On Oct 10, 2010, at 10:12 AM, Tyler White wrote:
