SUMMARY:Evolution Explored
DESCRIPTION:A new outdoor exhibition of 40 images by Magnum photographers will explore Charles Darwin’s legacy in modern society. Inspired by Darwin’s links to Shrewsbury\, the exhibition reflects on man’s progression through technology\, changes in society\, environmental concerns\, scientific discoveries\, and the historical events which have shaped the world we live in today. \nTraversing the globe from Australia to Brooklyn via Malaysia\, the exhibition includes a diverse selection of photographs from the seed vault in Svalbard by Jonas Bendiksen\, Longleat Safari Park by Martin Parr\, to the Horniman Museum and the protests in Tiananmen Square by Stuart Franklin. Other photographers included in the exhibition are Trent Parke\, Philip Jones Griffiths\, Elliott Erwitt\, Peter Marlow\, Alex Webb\, Rene Burri\, and Robert Capa – examining man’s place in the ever changing world. \nCharles Darwin was born in Shrewsbury in 1809 and published his landmark On the Origin of the Species in 1859. His theory of evolution by natural selection led to a rethinking of human’s place in the world – the idea that humans shared ancestry with apes was a challenge to the foundations of western civilisation. Evolution Explored will coincide with International Darwin Day\, and Darwin’s birthday on 12 February.  \nThe exhibition is a collaboration between Shrewsbury Business Improvement District (BID)\, The Hive Arts Centre\, GRAIN Photography Hub and partners.  In association with the exhibition\, there will be a series of activities including a Photo Safari and a Magnum Photos Talk. For further information visit www.hiveonline.org.uk  and www.grainphotographyhub.co.cuk  \nThe ten-week exhibition also links to Magnum Photos’ 70th anniversary which is to be marked by a series of international events\, projects and partnerships.  \n“We are delighted to be collaborating on this outdoor exhibition\, looking at Magnum’s archive through the prism of evolution. As Magnum moves into its 70th year\, it is a timely concept as we reflect on our own history and evolution. The exhibition will display powerful historic and contemporary photographs exploring Darwin’s legacy in modern society\,” said Emily Graham\, Cultural Commissions & Partnerships at Magnum Photos.     \nTrish Donovan\, Shrewsbury BID Board Member\, said: “Charles Darwin was born and raised in Shrewsbury. The town is rightly proud of this special connection to the man who became one of the most important figures in history with his theory of evolution by natural selection. It’s a unique event for the town to experience such renowned work and we expect it to attract thousands of visitors.”  \nSalla Virman\, Director for the Hive\, added: “This is an exciting and inspirational arts project looking at evolution through the eyes of some of the most influential photographers around. ‘Evolution Explored’ will celebrate the link between Charles Darwin and Shrewsbury but also give everyone the opportunity to enjoy high quality art in an accessible way. We would like to thank Arts Council England for their support to make the project possible and sponsors Redrow Homes\, Shrewsbury Shopping and Shrewsbury Colleges Group.”

SUMMARY:Central Colorado Celebrates Darwin Day!
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Central Colorado Humanists as we view and then discuss the BBC documentary “Charles Darwin and the Tree of Life”\, hosted by David Attenborough.  Cake and ice cream will follow.  The public is welcome to this free community event.  Donations to the CCH scholarship fund will be gratefully accepted. \nSummary:  David Attenborough outlines the development of Darwin’s theory through his observations of animals and plants both in nature and in the domesticated state\, visiting sites important in Darwin’s own life (e.g. Down House\, Cambridge University\, and the Natural History Museum) and using archive footage from Attenborough’s many nature documentaries for the BBC.  He reviews the development of the theory since its beginnings\, and  highlights its revolutionary impact on the way in which humans view themselves:  not as having dominion over the animals\, but as part of the natural world and subject to the same controlling forces that govern all life on Earth.

SUMMARY:Darwin Day Lecture by Dr. Amy Parish
DESCRIPTION:Sex\, Bonding & Dominance in Bonobos: Reflections on Our Closest Living Relatives and Ourselves\nA Darwin Day lecture by Dr. Amy Parish \nJoin us for Darwin Birthday cake after the lecture! \n     What really separates “man” from “animal”\, if indeed there is such a separation? About 200 species\, including humans\, belong to the Primate mammalian order. Like all animals\, they are faced with the problems of how to survive\, breed and rear offspring. The mating behavior of the apes is particularly complex and fascinating. Chimpanzee societies are typically characterized as physically aggressive\, male-bonded and male-dominated\, while their close relatives\, the bonobos\, differ in that female bonobos bond with one another\, form coalitions\, and dominate males. \n     How do these findings change our views of our evolution and ourselves? Dr. Amy Parish\, a biological anthropologist\, primatologist and Darwinian feminist and an expert on the social behavior of the bonobo\, will explore and compare the sexual and social behavior of chimpanzees and bonobos. Some researchers are reluctant to consider\, let alone acknowledge\, female dominance in bonobos. Both species are equally “man’s” closest relative. The implications of understanding our origins and shared behaviors will be explored from a feminist viewpoint. \n     Dr. Parish is an interdisciplinary scholar who teaches at USC. She has studied the world’s captive population of bonobos for the last 25 years and was the first to characterize bonobo society as a matriarchy. In all of her research\, she uses an evolutionary\, bio-cultural\, feminist\, and interdisciplinary approach to shed light on the origins of human behavior. Her work has been featured in Ms. Magazine\, and she has appeared on Nova\, National Geographic Explorer\, NPR\, and Discovery Health Channel productions. She has given numerous public lectures worldwide; moderated an event at the L.A. Public Library honoring the 50th anniversary of The Feminine Mystique; lectured in the “First Fridays” series at L.A.’s Natural History Museum; and is a frequent interlocutor in the L.A. Public Library’s ALOUD series. In 2011\, Dr. Parish completed a workshop led by actor Alan Alda on how to effectively communicate science to the public. She also is a fellow of the Los Angeles Institute for the Humanities. \nAdmission\nPublic: $8\nStudents: $4\nPlanet Level Members: FREE

SUMMARY:Board game «Evolution»/Настольная игра «Эволюция»
DESCRIPTION:Клуб настольных игр «Новое пространство» приглашает поиграть в настольную игру «Эволюция»\, основанную на дарвиновском принципе естественного отбора.  \nВыбирайте собственную стратегию в настольной борьбе за выживание! Что лучше: быть большим или маленьким\, быстро бегать или хорошо прятаться\, стать хищником или вступить в симбиоз?  \nОбразовательная настольная игра «Эволюция» была создана кандидатом биологических наук Дмитрием Алексеевичем Кнорре в 2010 году\, и входит в серию «Правильные игры». Это одна из самых популярных отечественных настольных игр\, хорошо известная как у нас\, так и за рубежом. В неё охотно играют и те\, кому нравятся простые недолгие настолки\, и любители выстраивать сложные многоходовые стратегии. \n«Эволюция» – это одновременно и увлекательное интеллектуальное состязание для всех возрастов\, и занимательный урок биологии. Недаром «Эволюция» получила высокую оценку не только игроков\, но и учёных\, и преподавателей

SUMMARY:How to Hunt for Aliens: Finding Darwin beyond Planet Earth
DESCRIPTION:Darwin utterly changed our understanding of the source of the diversity of life on Earth\, and with it\, our origin. But is our origin story one of a multitude—or are we unique or\, indeed\, alone in the cosmos? With Darwin as our guide\, we are now in a position to go forth and search. Join evolutionary biologist and astrobiologist Lynn Rothschild for a special talk hosted by the Yale Humanist Community in honor of Darwin Day. Free and open to the public. \nLynn Rothschild is passionate about the evolution of life on Earth or elsewhere\, while at the same time pioneering the use of synthetic biology to enable space exploration. Just as travel abroad permits new insights into home\, so too the search for life elsewhere allows a more mature scientific\, philosophical and ethical perception of life on Earth. She wears these hats as a senior scientist NASA’s Ames Research Center as well as Adjunct Professor at Brown University\, and the University of California Santa Cruz. Her research has focused on how life\, particularly microbes\, has evolved in the context of the physical environment\, both here and potentially elsewhere. She is a fellow of the Linnean Society of London\, The California Academy of Sciences and the Explorer’s Club. In 2015 she was awarded the Isaac Asimov Award from the American Humanist Association\, and was the recipient of the Horace Mann Award from Brown University.
