sobre las conferencias
El 8 y 9 de enero de 2009, asistimos a una serie de conferencias sobre naturaleza, ciencia, diseño y arte, cuyas informaciones transmitidas resultarán muy útiles a la hora de desarrollar nuestros proyectos.
A continuación, expongo mis impresiones sobre los temas abordados principalmente para poner en orden las informaciones recibidas.
Las dos primeras conferencias, desde mi modo de ver, estuvieron relacionadas sobretodo con informaciones científicas. Es decir, fueron charlas donde el funcionamiento y los mecanismos de seres vivos y sus relaciones entre semejantes o individuos de distintas especies estuvieron presentados.
La charla del biólogo Josep Lascurain estuvo basada en demostrar formas de utilizar la tecnología para hacer accesibles y comprensibles datos que provienen de la naturaleza, adoptando el mundo natural como modelo y se valiendo del mundo artificial como simulador, además de haber sugerido temas de interés actual. A continuación, algunos de los temas mencionados:
- ahorro de energía;
- radiación solar en el asfalto;
- distintas formas de percibir la realidad;
- la conectibilidad ecológica (intercambio energético entre distintas poblaciones);
- gradaciones de viscosidad de ecosistema;
- mapas sonoros (información sobre ruidos);
- la cartografía del tiempo (noción de procesos);
- cambios de temperatura.
La siguiente conferencia, ministrada por el entusiasmado arbolista Gerard Passola, resultó en un riquísimo aporte de conocimiento sobre los árboles.
Habló sobre las condiciones favorables al desarrollo de esos seres, de los elementos esenciales para que obtengan el éxito (luz, dióxido de carbono, água) y sobre como se estructuran y se mantienen vivos, “colonizando” el espacio.
Lo que más me impresionó fue el hecho de que el “Doctor Árbol”, como también es conocido, nos dió una clase sobre un tema casi totalmente ajeno para nosotros y que no tiene una relación inmediata con lo que hacemos y, sin embargo, nos mantuvo a todos muy atentos e interesados.
Gerard fue asimismo un divulgador de ciencia, utilizando metáforas para que su público fuera capaz de comprenderlo y que el tema resultara interesante. ¡Y lo logró!
Las conferencias del 9 de enero estuvieron más relacionadas a proyectos y experimentos basados en ciencia, naturaleza y tecnología.
Ulla Taipale abordó el tema del Bioarte, corriente del arte contemporáneo que tiene la particularidad de asumir a la biotecnología como un medio. Ulla enfatizó que ese tipo de arte se propone a promover el debate crítico, económico y político.
Nos presentó los precursores del movimiento, como Eduardo Kac con su coneja fluorescente y el evento “Días de Bioarte”, que consiste en una serie de talleres y debates sobre el tema.
Pienso que un aspecto de esa charla que puede ser interesante que tomemos en cuenta en nuestros proyectos es que podemos provocar la reflexión sobre temas de la actualidad. Podemos hacer evidentes aspectos de nuestra vida cotidiana que, sin embargo, no son cuestionados por nosotros puesto que se muestran tan habituales e integrados a nuestra manera de vivir.
Otra charla que me llamó la atención fue la de Raquel Paricio, que habló principalmente sobre el proyecto donde un hardware llamado POEtics monitoriza la instalación robótica POEtic-cubes. El nombre se origina de las palabras Phylogenesis (evolución), Ontogenesis (desarrollo) y Epigenesis (aprendizaje). Éstas son tres características de un organismo vivo que el equipo utilizó como inspiración para el proyecto.
Raquel valoró mucho en su charla el hecho de que para que un proyecto se inicie, hay que ser definida una necesidad para que luego se busquen soluciones donde sean aplicados conceptos de la naturaleza. Esto me parece fundamental para un buen desarrollo de proyectos, asimismo el hecho de que todo debe tener una explicación, como ocurre en la naturaleza, donde todo supuestamente tiene una función.
Éstos fueron los aspectos que me parecieron más interesantes.

hello brilliant little web site you have here
I use the exact same design template on my website but for whatever issue it seems to load better on yours eventhough your own has got a whole lot more multimedia. Have you been getting different plugins or widgets which quicken it up? Do you think you could possibly show the widgets so maybe I would be able to use them on my site so twilight eclipse fans could watch twilight eclipse online trailers and videos more easily I’d always be pleased - kudos ahead of time

I think that gold or silver bullion is better investment option than stocks. I think that price of gold will rise again. Look the site about American Silver Eagle coins

of the claim. Chances are since they have not been tested, self deception is much more most likely than the claim being true.
