SUMMARY:Water: Climate's Great Orchestrator
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a free lecture for the graduate level and above scientific community on the Science of Climate. Due to limited seating\, tickets are required and will be available online on a first come\, first served basis through Eventbrite.  Inquiries: lectures@simonsfoundation.org. \n*Registration required; click here to register! \nAbstract \nThe mighty water molecule\, with its voracious appetite for infrared radiation\, is responsible for much of what we know about climate and climate change\, and even more of what we don’t know. Trapped for most of its life in large surface reservoirs\, every few thousand years it escapes to the atmosphere for a short sojourn of a little over a week\, during which it helps to create\, quite literally\, the world as we know it. \nAbout the Speaker \nBjorn B. Stevens\, Ph.D. leads the department “The Atmosphere in the Earth System” as well as the International Max Planck Research School on Earth System Modelling at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology. \nProf. Stevens has published ground-breaking research papers dealing with the theory\, modelling and observation of “low” clouds\, which is one of the most important problems in meteorology and climate research. \nSchedule \nTea – 4:00p \nLecture – 4:30-5:30p \nQ & A – 5:30p\nLocation \nGerald D.

With the mermaid as our guide\, it’s Mrs. Rockefeller’s hope that we can unite to protect our oceans both to ensure food security for over one billion people who rely on fish for their primary protein and to preserve them as places of regeneration\, beauty and boundless dreams. Mission of Mermaids is the representation of the award winning filmmaker\, activist\, and conservationist’s love for our ocean. Using the archetype of the mermaid\, the film presents a poetic ode to the sea as well as a plea for its protection. Demonstrating her own commitment to environmental and ocean health\, Mrs. Rockefeller put together a low carbon-emission film production that is comprised of “found” footage from YouTube videos\, scanned images\, and archival\, licensed\, or donated footage and music as well as a day and a half of filming on Long Island.\n \n\nThe Zipper – Amy Nicholson – 77 mins (feature doc\, 2012):\nSmall-time ride operator Eddie Miranda proudly runs a carnival contraption called the Zipper in the heart of Coney Island’s gritty amusement district. Eddie and his ride are driven away when the City of New York and an opportunistic real estate mogul lock horns over the future of the “People’s Playground.” A film about greed\, politics\, land use and public policy\, and the battle over an American cultural icon\, Zipper captures a market-driven world where growth often trumps preservation\, and the Zipper may be only the beginning of what is lost. zipperfilm.com\nPHOTOGRAPHY SLIDESHOW\nBruce Handy:\nBruce\, aka Pablo Jones\, aka Jonesy Boy\, is a street photographer\, ninja photographer\, mermaid grokologist  and co-founder of the People’s Playground Paparazzi.  He is married to Vika and spends his free time taking photos of the dual centers of the universe\, Coney Island and Times Square.  He strives to capture characters showing natural emotions.  Jonesy takes this remaining space to thank the Save Coney Island organization and their supporters.  “May you all have sand in your shoes\, forever.” \nDoug Ross: \nDoug is an accomplished commercial photographer with over twenty-five years of professional experience.  His personal work in capturing the people\, performers and places of Coney Island are his passion and ongoing life’s work.  The area is rich in history\, architecture and its residence are the fabric that hold together her boardwalk\, amusements\, water and sand.  Although Doug grew up on Long Island his desire to photograph Coney Island came from his dad’s strong relation with the area.  All of Doug’s Coney Island work is dedicated to his father’s memory. \nDaniel Turkewitz: \nDaniel is an award winning screenwriter and filmmaker who also works with stills.  He’s worked professionally as a set photographer for several films and also film festivals including the Big Apple Film Festival.  His one minute short on the 9/11 memorial lights was featured on NPR.com and Wired.com. \nRobert Bailey & Robbie Bailey:\nRobert and Robbie Bailey are New York based photographers that specialize in environmental portraiture.  Robert received his BFA in Photography from Ohio University.  Robbie studied at the International Center of Photography.  They are both proud members of the Coney Island Polar Bears club. \nKevin Downs:\nKevin is a Fine Art & Documentary photographer and teacher who works to tell the stories of people who are facing life’s joys and struggles in New York City and in the world. \nCharles Denson:\nCharles is a Coney Island native\, director of the Coney Island History Project\, award winning filmmaker and author of Coney Island: Lost and Found. \nAlicia Degener: \nAlicia is a Brooklyn based artist primarily working in pastel while portraying the urban landscape of New York and particularly\, Coney Island.  She has embarked upon an exploration of the inner city by depicting the barriers set before us in our everyday lives often with an ironic sense of humor.  A skewed sense of perspective and bold color often utilizing text are focal points of Alicia’s distinctive artwork.  For the past two years her paintings have been featured as official promo-posters for the Siren Screen Series. \nLIVE READINGS\nMichael Schwartz:\nLeave all your loose valuables in the lobby\, because Coney Island native Michael Schwartz is about to take you for a harrowing ride in the front car on The Cyclone\, as he performs his beloved humorous short story “Hey Gerry!” about a boy’s coming of age in 1970s Coney Island.  “Hey Gerry!” has been performed in venues across the city\, and will be published in May in the anthology book\, Have A NYC 2: New York Short Stories.\n\nRichard Eagan:\nArtist and performer Richard Eagan\, a founder of the Coney Island Hysterical Society\, reads excerpts from his solo show “Alive on the Inside\,” an account of his years working in Coney Island.  Returning as an artist to the beachfront paradise of his childhood becomes a surreal odyssey of discovery of what lies beneath the surface of memory.

SUMMARY:IDEAS CITY FESTIVAL
DESCRIPTION:IDEAS CITY explores the future of cities around the globe with the belief that arts and culture are essential to the vitality of urban centers\, making them better places to live\, work\, and play. Founded by the New Museum in 2011\, IDEAS CITY is a major collaborative initiative between hundreds of arts\, education\, and community organizations. This year’s theme is Untapped Capital\, with participants focused on resources that are under-recognized or underutilized in our cities. \nMake sure to stop by City Atlas’s Booth and choose from a variety of temporary tattoos to show what you love most about sustainable NYC! \nPlan Your Visit Here \nIDEAS CITY is a biennial Festival in New York City of conferences\, workshops\, an innovative StreetFest around the Bowery\, and more than one hundred independent projects and public events that are forums for exchanging ideas\, proposing solutions\, and accelerating creativity. Additional Global Conferences are organized annually in key urban centers around the world to identify urgent issues. \n“As an institution dedicated to new art and new ideas\, the New Museum strongly believes that the cultural community is essential to the vitality of the future city. We also believe that the cultural sphere is still a relatively untapped source of enormously powerful creative capital\, especially in its potential to stimulate economic development and foster greater innovation in other fields. The IDEAS CITY initiative is an unprecedented step in expanding both our institution’s mission and its potential as a community hub\, drawing the creative population together as agents for change.” —Lisa Phillips\, Toby Devan Lewis Director\, New Museum

SUMMARY:IDEAS CITY: Mayoral Panel
DESCRIPTION:This installment of IDEAS CITY is devoted to the exploration of Untapped Capital. The mayors on this panel have interpreted Untapped Capital in their own\, individual ways. For some cities\, Untapped Capital might be neighborhoods; for others\, the arts. Governmental efficiency and green power offer reserves of Untapped Capital\, while “downtown” revitalization and transit expansion may have proven less stable resources. How does a city’s history become Untapped Capital and how deeply is a city’s identity tied to its resilience? The mayors will cite specific examples of their utilization of Untapped Capital from their tenures while also considering the context of their cities within a larger national and international framework.
