SUMMARY:Everything Matters: Helium - Tales from the Periodic Table
DESCRIPTION:Everything Matters: Helium \nTales from the Periodic Table \nwith Ron Hipschman\nThursday\, January 29\, 7:30PM\nPhyllis C. Wattis Webcast Studio\, Exploratorium\, Pier 15\, San Francisco\nIncluded with museum admission\nAdults Only (18+) \nhttp://www.exploratorium.edu/visit/calendar/everything-matters-helium-jan-29-2015 \nhttp://www.exploratorium.edu/about/staff/scientists/ron-hipschman\nHelium is the second most abundant element in the universe. Then why is there a global helium shortage? Follow the trail of our spendthrift affair with this elusive noble gas\, and find out why its future remains up in the air. Learn about helium’s many uses\, from lifting parade floats to cooling magnets in MRI machines\, and take part in a lighthearted experiment to raise – and lower – the pitch of your voice with the help of helium and sulfur hexafluoride. \nThe periodic table outlines the fundamental building blocks of all known matter in the universe. Composed of irreducible atoms\, these elements arrived from the earliest reports of the Big Bang\, the fusion wombs of stars and supernova\, and collisions between interstellar matter and cosmic rays – as well as through artificial production in the lab. A scant 4.9% of the universe (the rest being dark matter and energy)\, the 118 elements currently arrayed on the periodic table display unique and yet beautifully related properties and behaviors. To us\, they mean everything: from iron to uranium\, their discovery and use have shaped the course of human history. \nCome be in your elements with Exploratorium host and scientific raconteur Ron Hipschman. Follow tales of intrigue and invention\, join in dynamic demonstrations\, and uncover fascinating connections between individual elements and our collective experience.

He has published several very popular science books\, including Pulitzer Prize-winning Guns\, Germs and Steel and\, most recently\, The World Until Yesterday. Diamond’s conclusions are critical and provocative\, exploring concepts such as how humans evolved to be so different from other animals (despite sharing over 98 percent of our DNA with chimpanzees)\, and why Eurasian peoples conquered Native Americans and Africans instead of vice versa. Diamond yet again challenges the way we think in The World Until Yesterday\, as he chronicles tribal peoples and what they can teach us about the shortcomings of modern society. Join Wonderfest and the Commonwealth Club for an hour of intellectual stimulation with one of the world’s most celebrated polymaths.”

With five years of college under his belt and no degree\, then twenty-something year old Wright created a game based on designing and building cities. In achieving that goal\, Will created a new genre in gaming and within it\, one of the best-loved game franchises in history\, SimCity. An entirely new kind of video game genre\, focused on open-ended\, non-violent gameplay was born! Hear Will discuss his journey and his upcoming projects. \nWill Wright (born January 20\, 1960\, Atlanta\, Georgia) is a well-known computer game designer and is co-founder of Maxis. He created groundbreaking games unlike any others such as: SimCity\, The Sims\, and Spore. Known for his unusual ideas and projects\, which later have become groundbreaking hits sealing his reputation as one of the most important game designers in the world. Currently CEO of Stupid Fun Club\, he’s now working on new concepts to expand the realm of gaming into our everyday lives. When asked what he does he just says ‘I design stuff.’”
