THEATER

Dear Forum friends,
I write to invite you to our first Forum of the term: <bold>Felice
Frankel</bold>, an artist in residence at MIT and a pioneering
photographer of scientific and technological phenomena, will deliver an
illustrated lecture on <bold>THURSDAY, SEPT. 23, 5-7 pm </bold>in our
usual location: Bartos Theater in the Media Lab, 20 Ames Street. Her
title: "The Power of Images in Communicating Science and Technology."
Boyce Rensberger, Director of the Knight Science Journalism Fellowships
program at MIT, will serve as respondent. A link to her home page
appears in the calendar.
The Forum's fall term calendar is especially rich, and I hope many of
you will make time to attend our events. Highlights include the
culminating event of the Media in Transition project, an international
<bold>conference on Oct. 8-10,</bold> featuring some 75 papers from
media scholars and practitioners from around the world; and a second
edition of a <bold>Forum on "public intellectuals,"</bold> featuring
<bold>Steve Pinker</bold> and <bold>Alan Lightman</bold>, scheduled for
<bold>Dec. 2</bold>.
Full information about the fall schedule is available on the Media in
Transition web site: http://media-in-transition.mit.edu.
Cheers,
--DT
