SUMMARY:On 13 March we will hold BCAM NAUKAS to celebrate PI DAY
DESCRIPTION:Details \n\n\n\n\nDate and time: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEgoitza \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is arguably the most famous number in history. Pi\, represented by Greek letter π\, is one of the most important mathematical constants in history and has been studied for over 4\,000 years. Such is the fascination with this number over the centuries that now it even has its own day on the calendar. Pi Day is celebrated in March all over the globe. \n\n\n\nThis international event was suggested by US physicist Larry Shaw in 1988. The way in which March 14th is written in US English and in Basque coincides with the first three digits of the number (3-14 = martxoak 14 in Basque / 3-14 = March 14th in English)\, and it is also Albert Einstein’s date of birth. Thus\, in 2009 the US Congress officially declared March 14th as National Pi Day. \n\n\n\nPi Day is currently a well-known global celebration that goes beyond the realm of maths. This irrational number\, defined as the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter\, is used in various scientific fields like physics\, engineering and geology and has amazing practical applications in our everyday life. \n\n\n\nWe will be taking part in the celebrations in 2019 with the BCAM-NAUKAS event on 13 March at the UPV/EHU Bizkaia Aretoa building. BCAM-NAUKAS will include mathematical workshops for primary and secondary students during the morning\, and a series of short lectures aimed at the general public in the afternoon. \n\n\n\nThe event is an initiative from the Basque Center for Applied Mathematics (BCAM)\, as part of its tenth anniversary celebrations\, and the Chair of Scientific Culture of the University of the Basque Country. \n\n\n\nProgramme on 13 March – BCAM Naukas Pi Day \n\n\n\n9:00 – 16:15 MATHEMATICAL WORKSHOPS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshops for students in the last years of primary school\, and secondary school students. The objective is to introduce young people to mathematics in a playful and attractive way\, aiming to make them interested in this science. \n\n\n\n\nPrimary school 5–6 PS grades\n\n09:00 – 10:00: Paπroflexia matematikaz blai (in Basque) (José Ignacio Royo)\n\n\n\n10:30 – 11:30: Paπroflexia matematikaz blai (in Basque) (José Ignacio Royo)\n\n\n\n12:00 – 13:00: π\, atracción fractal (Covadonga Rodríguez-Moldes y Cristina Montero)\n\n\n\n15:15 – 16:15: π\, atracción fractal (Covadonga Rodríguez-Moldes y Cristina Montero)\n\n\n\n\n\nSecondary school 1 – 2 SS grades\n\n09:00 – 10:00: Juegos Gigantes (Pedro Alegría – Raúl Ibáñez)\n\n\n\n10:30 – 11:30: Juegos Gigantes (Pedro Alegría – Raúl Ibáñez)\n\n\n\n12:00 – 13:00: Juegos Gigantes (Pedro Alegría – Raúl Ibáñez)\n\n\n\n15:15 – 16:15: Juegos Gigantes (Pedro Alegría – Raúl Ibáñez)\n\n\n\n\n\nSecondary school 3 – 4 SS grades\n\n09:00 – 10:00: Fractales fabulosos (Caroline Ainslie)\n\n\n\n10:30 – 11:30: Fractales fabulosos (Caroline Ainslie)\n\n\n\n12:00 – 13:00: Math mystery box (in Basque) (Nerea Casas)\n\n\n\n15:15 – 16:15: Math mystery box (in Basque) (Nerea Casas)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe workshops are free and have a maximum capacity of 40 people.

The objective of these lectures is to make the fascinating nature of mathematics more accessible\, and to find out the properties and applications of the number Pi in everyday life\, among other things. \n\n\n\n\n19:00-19:15: Presentation of the BCAM-NAUKAS event\n\n\n\n19:15-19:30: Aniceto Murillo (University of Malaga): “E-pi-logo (Después de esto\, mi carrera ha muerto)” (E-pi-logue (My Career Died After This)).\n\n\n\n19:30-19:45: Paz Morillo (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya): “Matemáticas modernas” (Modern Maths).\n\n\n\n19:45-20:00: Pedro Caro (BCAM-Ikerbasque): “Metamateriales\, invisibilidad y la capa de Harry Potter” (Metamaterials\, Invisibility and Harry Potter’s Cloak).\n\n\n\n20:00-20:15: Luz Roncal (BCAM-Ikerbasque): “El problema de Josefo: cómo las matemáticas pueden salvarte la vida” (Josefo’s Problem: How Maths Can Save Your Life).\n\n\n\n20:15-20:30: Alberto Márquez (University of Seville): “Pizza y terraplanistas” (Pizza and Flat-Earthers).\n\n\n\n20:30-20:45: Deborah García Bello (University of A Coruña): “Palo seco”.

SUMMARY:Dialogues on the Border: Talk & Discussion by Carlos Irijalba and Joaquín del Val
DESCRIPTION:Details \n\n\n\n\nDate and time:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEgoitza \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen we talk about such different disciplines as art and science\, it may be difficult to imagine that there can be a connection between them. But it is not actually that hard to discover a close and rich relationship between these two forms of knowledge. In fact\, it would be impossible to fully understand human culture if we analyse these disciplines as unconnected elements. \n\n\n\nContemporary art and geology are clear examples of this fascinating interaction. The analysis of the relationship between both disciplines is precisely the aim of the third “Dialogues on the Border”\, which will take place on 27 March at Bidebarrieta Library in Bilbao. \n\n\n\nThe talk will start at 7pm and will analyse the connection between contemporary art and geology through the works of Carlos Irijalba\, one of the most international artists today. He will be interviewed by geologist Joaquín del Val\, author of the blog Arte y Geología. \n\n\n\nCarlos Irijalba is a multifaceted artist who works with various art media like photography\, video and sculpture\, as well as with various geological elements\, like fluorite crystal drilling\, for example. Irijalba’s art is a clear example of how art and science are inseparable\, as the main element in many of his works is science\, especially geology. The relationship between humans and their environment and the construction of reality\, time\, matter\, dimension\, scale and structure are key elements in his work \n\n\n\nThis event\, which mainly aims to create a space for dialogue between art and science\, is part of the “Scientific Bidebarrieta” series\, a monthly initiative organised by the Chair of Scientific Culture of the UPV/EHU and Bidebarrieta Library to discuss current scientific issues. \n\n\n\nThe Speakers \n\n\n\nCarlos Irijalba graduated in Fine Arts from the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU). His works are included in public collections all over the globe and he has exhibited them in important places such as the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona\, Tabacalera in Madrid\, Guangdong Museum of Contemporary Art in China\, Centre Pompidou in Paris and the LMCC Art Center at Governors Island in New York. He has won several awards\, including the 2013 Purificación García Photography Award\, 2015 Shifting Foundation Grant\, 2010 PhotoEspaña Best New Photographer and ART Situations award at ARCO2018. \n\n\n\nJoaquín del Val graduated in Geology from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. After working at the Geological and Mining Institute of Spain\, he joined a geology consultancy firm in Bilbao where he carried out surveys and geological-geomorphological mapping. He has taken part in the development of thematic mapping of Ecuador and he is currently working in Seville as part of the Neotectonics\, Geomorphology and Paleoseismicity research group\, which is studying the environment of the nuclear power station of Almaraz. He writes a blog\, Arte y Geología (Art and Geology)\, which is about the connections between contemporary art and geology. \n\n\n\nAll of the talks are free\, subject to available seating. However\, attendees must request an invite at the library\, from 22 to 27 March. Invitations can be collected from 10am to 2pm and from 4pm to 8pm\, Monday to Friday. \n\n\n\nFor those who are not able to attend\, the talks are streamed live KulturguneaTB.
