Student Club Activity

The eighth workshop on the Packard Light Art Installation is 1:30-3:30PM on Monday, November 11th. It will meet in Packard 001.

The workshop will focus on curating which prototypes to display and figuring out what's missing. We'll also look at the prototype built by the students taking EE185 (inside and outside), discuss what we learn from it, and propose a few things to try differently next time.

Join StanfordXR for a talk by Prof. Ge Wang and PhD candidate Kunwoo Kim, both from CCRMA.

Stanford WEE is organizing an Industry Lunch with Cheryl Lam from Sandia National Laboratories on November 7th, from 12-1 pm in Spilker 232.

Hope to see you there!

From Computer History Museum Events: In a blockbuster paper in 1948, Claude Shannon introduced the notion of a "bit" and laid the foundation for the Information Age. His ideas ripple through such diverse fields as communication, linguistics, genetics, computing, cryptography, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and cosmology. In later years, he constructed a mathematical theory of juggling, rode unicycles, wrote the first paper on computer chess and built a flaming trumpet!

Join us for a screening of The Bit Player, a film that combines interviews with leading scientists, archival film, inventive animation and compelling commentary from Shannon himself to tell the story of an overlooked genius who revolutionized the world but never lost his childlike curiosity. After the film, there will be a Q & A with the director Mark Levinson (Particle Fever).

Watch the film trailer here.

#StanfordToo: A Conversation about Sexual Harassment in Our Academic Spaces, where we will feature real stories of harassment at Stanford academic STEM in a conversation with Provost Drell, Dean Minor (SoM), and Dean Graham (SE3). We will have plenty of time for audience discussion on how we can take concrete action to dismantle this culture and actively work towards a more inclusive Stanford for everyone. While our emphasis is on STEM fields, we welcome and encourage participation from students, postdocs, staff, and faculty of all academic disciplines and backgrounds.
