A secret field that summons lightning. A massive spiral that disappears into a salt lake. A celestial observatory carved into a volcano. Meet the wild—and sometimes explosive—world of land art, where artists craft masterpieces with dynamite and bulldozers. In our Season 2 premiere, guest Dylan Thuras, cofounder of Atlas Obscura, takes us off road and into the minds of the artists who literally reshaped parts of the Southwest. These works aren’t meant to be easy to reach—or to explain—but they just might change how you see the world. Land art you’ll visit in this episode: - Double Negative and City by Michael Heizer (Garden Valley, Nevada) - Spiral Jetty by Robert Smithson (Great Salt Lake, Utah) - Sun Tunnels by Nancy Holt (Great Basin Desert, Utah) - Lightning Field by Walter De Maria (Catron County, New Mexico) - Roden Crater by James Turrell (Painted Desert, Arizona) Via Podcast is a production of AAA Mountain West Group.…

This talk showcases several groundbreaking AI projects that Dr. Ruopeng An's team has developed to address pressing societal challenges. These projects include using AI to combat COVID-19 disinformation on social media, improving precision nutrition with computer vision models, tracking public sentiment on soda taxes and menu labeling laws, and autocorrecting exaggerated health research headlines. Dr. An's team has also built AI models to accurately predict obesity prevalence by adjusting self-reported data and created AI tools to detect ChatGPT-generated text in student homework. Additionally, they have developed AI-powered web applications to help social workers improve communication skills through real-time simulations. This talk explores how AI can be harnessed for social good, solving real-world problems and making a meaningful impact.

×This talk examines Soviet power through a transregional and global lens, focusing on its cultural and political exchanges with the Middle East. Drawing from a recently published book, The Eastern International: Arabs, Central Asians, and Jews in the Soviet Union's Anticolonial Empire, it traces how the Soviet concept of the “East” shaped both domestic policy and international influence, from the early Bolshevik era to Putin’s Russia. Through the stories of Soviet Jews, Central Asians, and Arab Marxists, it uncovers a fascinating web of cultural and political exchanges that blurred the lines between empire and anti-colonialism. Speaker Masha Kirasirova, Author, "The Eastern International: Arabs, Central Asians, and Jews in the Soviet Union's Anticolonial Empire" (Oxford University Press, 2024); Assistant Professor of History, NYUAD…

This panel discussion will consider how ethical decisions will be influenced in the future by the many applications of Artificial Intelligence. An ethicist and philosopher, an engineer who will design intelligent robots, and a computer scientist whose goal will be to make "responsible AI" synonymous with "AI" will each present a view of future AI ethics and then discuss how their views will diverge. While each participant will be a specialist conducting research into AI ethics, this discussion will bring together scientific, technical, and humanistic issues under the broad category of responsibility. Panel Members Ludovic Righetti, Electrical and Computer Engineer; Director of Machines in Motion Laboratory, Autonomous Machines in Motion Jeff Sebo, Ethicist and Philosopher; Director of Center for Mind, Ethics and Policy, AI Moral Well Being Julia Stoyanovich, Computer Scientist, Director of Center for Responsible AI, AI Governance Moderated by Harold Sjursen, Professor Emeritus, NYU Tandon School of Engineering…

Join us for the inaugural ذخر (Dhikhr) Award presentation, inspired by the vision of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who said, "The book is the vessel of knowledge, civilization, culture, learning, literature, and the arts. Nations are not measured by their material wealth alone, but by their civilizational authenticity." The word Dhikhr means "valuable asset" in Arabic, symbolizing this award's purpose: to honor those who have enriched the UAE's heritage. This year, we recognize the late David Heard and Frauke Heard-Bey for their invaluable contributions. The ceremony will feature a brief talk on their legacy, followed by the award presentation.…

This talk explores the potential consequences of the end of global population growth, examining various scenarios for a world with no growth. With global population growth likely to cease within the next 60 years, some view this shift as a relief from ecological pressures, while others fear it may lead to labor shortages, government fiscal collapse, and aging populations lacking adequate care. Countries with extremely low fertility rates—such as Italy, Japan, and South Korea—could even face the risk of national extinction within a few generations. This talk will investigate these contrasting perspectives, considering whether this shift will be a boon or a doom for the future. Speaker Jack A. Goldstone, Virginia E. and John T.

Have the great ambitions for the role of international criminal justice in the world been misplaced? Can international courts deliver meaningful justice for the victims of extreme crimes in conflict? This conversation will explore the challenges of seeking accountability for war time atrocities with Erik Møse, one the pioneering figures of international criminal justice. His perspectives will draw from decades of experience, having served as the President of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and presided over the trials of the leading figures of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, where an estimated 800,000 individuals were killed within 100 days. In his current role as Chair of the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine, he will share his reflections on the rapidly evolving techniques for investigating international crimes in conflict zones.

Our memories are not facts found on cards in a neural rolodex. They are recreations of reality. And, almost always, they are incredibly accurate and vivid. Yet our memories are vulnerable. They can be distorted, they can be manipulated, and in several disease states, they can be irrevocably lost. This talk explores how the brain manages the remarkable feat of acquiring information about the world, storing that information in a wide range of neural networks, and allowing the effortless retrieval of those memories when called to mind.
