ITH PATRIOTIC MUSIC, FLAGS, A FLYBY, AND MORE, Santa Barbara’s annual Veterans Day Ceremony will take place at the Santa Barbara Cemetery (901 Channel Drive) at 11am on Saturday, November 11th. Co-hosted by Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1649 and Pierre Claeyssens Veterans Foundation, the event is an opportunity to remember, honor, and thank those who have offered service to our country. The open air ceremony begins at 11am sharp with presentations and performances by the UCSB Color Guard; Gold Coast Pipe & Drum Band; singer David Gonzales and the Santa Barbara Choral Society, The Prime Time Band, and local guest speakers, and a flyover by The Condor Squadron. Attendees are encouraged to arrive early.
Keynote speaker, Rear Admiral John Weigold, U.S. NAVY retired will address those gathered. Known as one of the city’s most beautiful outdoor locations, the venue’s driveway will be decorated with dozens of American flags. The ceremony will take place near the main flagpole, with seating available for up to 500, with additional standing room and plenty of parking. A national holiday, Veterans Day, celebrates the service of all U.S. military veterans. It was originally known as Armistice Day in the U.S. and coincides with other holidays including Armistice Day and Remembrance Day which are celebrated in other countries that mark the anniversary of the end of World War I. This event honors the dedication, service, and bravery of local men and women who served in the four branches of the U.S. armed forces. The VFW was established to assist veterans and foster camaraderie among United States veterans of overseas conflicts, as well as to serve veterans, the military, the community, and advocate on behalf of all veterans.

Pumpkin Carving!
On the Street with John Palminteri Photos and Stories by John Palminteri / Special to VOICE

New Create State Ideas Circulating
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28TH: New promenade ideas in Santa Barbara could include a Civic Center for the first time. Calls to slow down electric bikes continue. Plus, how soon will it be before a trolley or shuttle plan is running down the middle of the street? The State Street Advisory Committee is looking at many options.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31ST: However you cut it, carve it, or stab it, there is a special art to making a pumpkin into a Halloween decoration. These are the entries at Island Brewing in Carpinteria last night with the winners, Leslie Murphy and Milenka Doukas posing at the end.
Pumpkin Patch TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31ST: The all ages haunted pumpkin patch in Isla Vista Monday night returns Tuesday night Halloween - from 7pm to 11pm. It has creatively dressed characters, a storyville theme, games, and free pumpkins.
Trunk or Treat
MONDAY, OCTOBER 30TH: My favorite car at the Dave’s Dogs and Dave’s Drip House Trunk or Treat Sunday night near Goleta was this 57 Chevy with skeleton newlyweds and nearly deads. At least that’s the way I saw it.
Thoughts & Prayers MONDAY, OCTOBER 30TH: Keeping Sojourner Kincade Rolle in my prayers as she goes into Hospice care. She has contributed so much to the Santa Barbara community, to many generations, with love, without fear, and with a commitment to a better future. We chatted at Juneteenth this year in the Funk Zone about her new book Free at Last. Her husband Rod is one of the best and solid press photographers in our ranks and a joy to be with as well.
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 25TH: After a 15-year old lost her life in 2015, a new trail has been dedicated to honor Carina Velazquez. It is outside of Santa Ynez Valley High where she attended. More trail work throughout the area is planned for those walking, biking, and on horseback. Supervisor Joan Hartmann, Santa Barbara County Public Works, community trails volunteers, and the Bucket Brigade led the way with hours of work. More trail work is also planned to expand the system in the area.
Super 8 Delays MONDAY, OCTOBER 30TH: The conversion of the former Super 8 Motel in Goleta into units for those facing chronic homelessness will miss the 2023 goal. Some newly discovered soil issues have to be cleaned up. The opening will now be at the end of January for the 59 units plus one for the manager. John Palminteri is a veteran news reporter and anchor for Newschannel 3-12 TV and both KJEE and KCLU radio in Santa Barbara/Santa Maria/Ventura. Off the air, he’s often bringing his smile and positive energy to the microphone at fundraisers and civic events. John’s social media presence has one of the largest followings in Santa Barbara, and this page has the weekly highlights.

Scarecrow Fest THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26TH: The annual month-long Scarecrow Fest concludes next week in the Santa Ynez Valley. Businesses have created clever and colorful scarecrows and some are competing for awards in categories including humorous and best use of recycled materials.
1st Responders MONDAY, OCTOBER 30TH: Vehicle-structure fire 2819 Panorama near Puesta del Sol. Big plume of smoke showing. Several Santa Barbara City fire engines on scene.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28TH: A two car crash with an injury earlier in the afternoon left only one lane open on Hwy 101 Northbound at Bath St. in Santa Barbara. Traffic has been backed up to Montecito.

UCSB Reads selects Your Brain on Art for its 18th season By Shelly Leachman The UC Santa Barbara Current
C
Such is the case made by Susan Magsamen and Ivy Ross in Your Brain on Art: How the Arts Transform Us, a journey through the science of neuroaesthetics, a new and rapidly expanding field of research at the intersection of psychological aesthetics, biological mechanisms, and human evolution. The interdisciplinary book demonstrates how our brains and bodies transform in profound ways when we participate in the arts, even for as little as 45 minutes, and how this knowledge can improve health and build stronger communities. The authors describe their work as a “call-to-arms for the radical integration of the arts with science and technology to design a more humane future.” A New York Times bestselling book, Your Brain on Art is the 2024 selection for UCSB Reads, an initiative of the UC Santa Barbara Library. Now in its 18th year, the program brings together the campus and Santa Barbara communities to read a common book that explores compelling issues of our time. “This is the first time in the program’s 18-year history that the UCSB Reads selection committee has chosen a book that examines how the arts enrich our lives,” said Alex Regan, the library’s events and exhibitions program manager. “UCSB Library is excited to explore the ways in which the visual arts, music, dance, and other means of artistic expression are fundamental to human flourishing.” Book authors Magsamen and Ross draw further insight from their careers. Magsamen is the founder/director of the International

REATIVE ACTIVITIES such as painting, dancing, playing music, or expressive writing are known to ease distress, invigorate communities, improve learning and academic achievement, and simply bring us joy. For these reasons and more, they’re essential to our daily lives.
Arts + Mind Lab: Center for Applied Neuroaesthetics at Johns Hopkins University; and Ross is vice president of design for hardware products at Google. The new season of UCSB Reads will officially kick off Thursday, January 18th, 2024, with a book giveaway for students at the UC Santa Barbara Library. Chancellor Henry Yang, Executive Vice Chancellor David Marshall and University Librarian Kristin Antelman will distribute copies of Your Brain on Art while supplies last. From January through May, the library will sponsor talks, panel discussions, film screenings, book clubs, creative workshops, and other events to explore the book’s themes. Faculty are encouraged to incorporate Your Brain on Art into their winter or spring courses; the library will provide free copies of the book to all students who are assigned to read it as part of coursework. UCSB Reads will culminate at 7:30pm Wednesday, May 8th, 2024, with a free public talk by authors Susan Magsamen and Ivy Ross in Campbell Hall, presented in partnership with UCSB Arts & Lectures.

Fun at the Maritime Museum! NOTHER HALLOWEEN HAS COME AND GONE with full on party-time all over town! What once was an exclusive Kiddie Dress-up Day Halloween overwhelmed the Autumn calendar to become the Dress-up Day for everyone. I visited Ghost Village Road that was crawling with small and large goblins, witches, fairies, princesses, Spidermen, and vampires… They were not only there but everywhere I went. Of course, little Trick-orTreaters, escorted by their parents (most in costumes), could still be seen along streets that were safe. Candy and goodies were offered at each location and I’m certain by the time this goes to print some of the revelers might still be on a sugar-high!

Lerin Ramsay and Vale Laraia
Last Saturday, October 28th, in anticipation of Halloween, the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum’s (SBMM) Family Craft Saturdays presented a special art activity for kid’s from four to eleven years old, listed as “t’s Costume Time.” Part of a series of weekly art activities for younger students, the Craft Saturday Program was initiated this year beginning in July and extending to December 9th. In the spirit of the occasion, the children were encouraged to start their Halloween adventure by drawing their own treasure map using maps and the Channel Islands chart for inspiration. Sadly for me I missed the 10am to 2pm window for this fun activity but, I assure you, I didn’t leave empty handed.
Entering the children’s area of the SBMM, I was welcomed by Lerin Ramsay in the process of reorganizing the craft tables. “This has been one of our map days for the kids to hide treasure and develop a secret map before Halloween,” she offered. “We have twelve different rotating art projects every Saturday for younger children to create art by using their eyes, hands, and imagination. As an example, next week’s activity will be learning the Japanese art of Origami to fold paper to look like sea creatures or any form of nautical life that their imagination dictates.” What a way to develop small muscle and eye hand coordination, the long ago school teacher in me thought, not to mention visual dexterity so necessary in the early years. A SBMM Docent, Vale Laraia, a Captain’s hat on her head, joined the conversation. This was the perfect opportunity to learn how each of these enthusiastic greeters became involved in the museum. “I am fairly new to this job,” revealed Laraia,“but being here at the museum I feel perfectly at home!” Ramsay, on the other hand had been with the museum for some time, starting in the gift shop. “When the gift shop closed for the coffee bar construction, I shepherded the merchandise upstairs to the Munger Theater until it was sold,” she shared. Apparently her involvement and hard work was appreciated and the museum retained Ramsay as the Community Engagement Coordinator, the position she now holds. As part of SBMM’s ‘Dream Team’ I was definitely welcomed by ladies who fit that description. Thanks for spending so much time with me!

At the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum, educational programming incorporates experiential hands-on learning inside and outside of its walls. Whether it be last week’s Family Craft Saturdays or Science Nights in local schools or the outdoor Maritime on the Move, Girls in Ocean Science, the Tall Ship Program living life on the Mystic Whaler, an 18th Century schooner. They all encourage curiosity about California’s maritime history and human interactions with the sea. For young people, some who have never been to the shoreline, it’s thrilling to get historical and maritime related experiences so close to home. These exciting educational programs are powerful tools for lifelong impact and learning. SBMM programs are customized, based on age, grade, and skill level, with diverse excursions offered in a variety of locations as students are exposed to maritime history, coastal ecology, and marine science. Come on down to the harbor and visit the Maritime Museum!

Cinema Voice:
Descent: Writer/Director Justine Triet’s new film Anatomy Of A Fall
O
By Robert F. Adams, Special to VOICE
There is no soundtrack in the film, just ambient songs which are part of the dramatic sequences. Set in the isolated French Alps, the film switches languages from English to French and back again, adding to the ambiguous confusion not only within the relationship, a marriage between competitive writers fraught with misinterpretation. The turmoil that emerges is emblematic of the dramatic arc of this character-study film.

N OCTOBER 3RD, SBIFF Cinema Society held audiences enraptured at a screening of a thrilling French crime and trial drama Anatomy of a Fall. It was conceived by Writer/Director Justine Triet and written for the accomplished German actress, Sandra Hüller, who was memorable in the 2016 German sly comedy Toni Erdmann. In a time of limited movie releases, due to According to the the ongoing Actor’s director, who was strike in the USA, present to discuss foreign films and their her film revealed, directors are being “Language was a prominently featured central theme. We find in the end-of-season the characters moving high quality release between different slates. The theatre was zones of language, one packed to the rafters, being the impulsive Sandra Hüller and Swann Arlaud evidence of viewers language of home in Anatomy Of A Fall seeking out high an intimacy, where quality films. language is always defeated in the attempt to communicate. And then, in the courtroom, The audience encountered a welllanguage is more of an analytical register constructed but ambiguous thriller that that is going to try and help control things, a seemed to ask more questions than it cerebral and colder approach to language.

But the up and down stairways. What Writer/Director Justine Triet director reveals Sandra’s dark and Co-Writer Arthur Harari is at the top or bottom of the edges, instead of using dramatic stairs is barely revealed and the film is shot flashbacks, with a devastating tape recording mostly close-ups. indicating unsettling anger. This is where actor Hüller shines as she reaches a career height Their young son who is half blind is a with this project. dubious witness, creating a froth of mystery where it seems anything can happen and anyone can be accused of wrong-doing. Gender expectations are also at play as the female in the rocky marriage is portrayed as the strong one of the pair, clearly dominating a detached husband figure. Although a trial is dramatized, the film plays much more as an examination of how marriages can capsize. A universal and relatable catharsis occurs which can be recognized by most couples within the tightness of a wood Alps chalet that contains the main figures in a dramatic relationship of highs and lows.
The clever screenplay from Triet, collaborating with Arthur Harari, hatches a film construction that is somewhat akin to Akira Kurosawa’s masterpiece from the early fifties, Rashomon, where truth is only found on a slippery slope. Ethically, the main character, Sandra, is guilty of many things, including the emotional and at times, the physical abuse of her husband, Vincent.
French actor Swann Arlaud carries his role as a congenial foil to the main character as the attorney representing Sandra, who finds himself not only confused but in some scenes powerfully attracted to his client. Young teenager Milo Machado-Graner adds nuance as the unsure-of-his-footing son who constantly rides the emotional rails of his parent’s disturbed marriage. The ethical predicaments are subtly dramatized, a credit to the delicate calibrations within the performances by this exquisite cast as well as a shining example of the director’s finely-tuned collaboration with her actors.
An affecting experience, this film might gather numerous cinema awards in 2023, deserved for the sharp focus the creators bring to this intimate story. Anatomy of a Fall feels like a classic, so be on the lookout. The film already won the coveted Palme d’Or, the highest Cannes Film Festival prize in May. It’s a psychological story that seems to be engaging audiences both here and in Europe.

ExxonMobil Plans Pipeline Restart

SUBSIDIARY OF EXXONMOBIL, Pacific Pipeline Company (“PPC”), has announced the withdrawal of its application to build a new pipeline allowing ExxonMobil to restart oil platforms offshore of Santa Barbara County. Instead, PPC will focus on restarting Plains Pipeline 901/903 – the same corroded and compromised pipeline that ruptured in 2015, causing the massive Refugio Oil Spill, poisoning the local coastline, and devastating marine life.
Restarting the pipeline would allow ExxonMobil to resume operations of its three 1980s platforms offshore, which shut down after the Refugio spill. It also would allow the company to restart its onshore Las Flores Canyon processing facility, which when operational was the single largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in Santa Barbara County. “At this stage of the climate crisis, building new oil infrastructure is reckless, to say the least,” said Maggie Hall, Deputy Chief Counsel at the Environmental Defense Center (“EDC”). “However, restarting a corroded and compromised pipeline that already caused one massive oil spill is even worse. There is no way for the pipeline owners to credibly claim it will be safe. If this pipeline is allowed to restart, it’s not a question of if, but when it will be responsible for another catastrophe.”

EDC represents Get Oil Out!, SBCAN, and its own members in opposing the pipeline projects. Extensive corrosion on Line 901/903 was the cause for the 2015 spill of more than 450,000 gallons of heavy crude on the Gaviota Coast and into the ocean. Oil washed out into the sensitive environment of the Santa Barbara Channel, closing formerly pristine Refugio and El Capitan State Beaches, killing more than 300 marine mammals and seabirds, and spreading along 150 miles of the California coast. The federal government’s report confirmed that Plains was at fault for failure to adequately maintain, inspect, and operate the pipeline.
To many students, the highlight of the day was visiting the warehouse at Direct Relief. Representatives from each organization shared their experiences, providing the students with a glimpse into the diverse career possibilities within the realm of computer science. The CS Academy staff organized this exceptional extracurricular activity to expose students to possible future careers and to give them a chance to learn from role models in the industry. According to CS Academy Director, Sky Adams, “Many students don’t have any idea what a wide variety of tech companies we have right here in our community or that there is a need for highly skilled computer scientists in the nonprofit sector. Getting to see the facilities and hear from the employees at these organizations opens students’ eyes to what working in tech is really like, and many of them are quite surprised in a good way.”

ABITAT FOR HUMANITY of Southern Santa Barbara County recognized ten individuals and organizations that represented this year’s volunteer award recipients for outstanding service and commitment to Habitat Santa Barbara’s mission. The awards were presented at the annual Volunteer Appreciation Event, held at Buena Onda restaurant on Santa Barbara’s Eastside.
Volunteer projects during the year included disaster preparedness efforts during the historic rain storms last winter; disaster recovery efforts following last spring’s tornado in Carpinteria; assistance with home repair projects for low-income homeowners; Family Services Committee efforts to visit with and screen home repair applicants; and A Brush With Kindness projects, Habitat’s exterior home improvement program. The volunteers were honored at a reception at the lovely patio at Buena Onda while recalling the volunteer events that shaped this past year.
ANTA BARBARA HIGH SCHOOL’S Computer Science Academy (CS Academy) students took an inspiring Santa Barbara technology field trip supported by three businesses and a nonprofit organization.
Around 50 students had a one-of-a-kind opportunity to step out of their classrooms and immerse themselves in the real-world environments of tech organizations AppFolio, Invoca, Amazon, and Direct Relief.
EDC and its partners also fought to stop a plan by ExxonMobil to truck millions of gallons of oil every week from its platforms through Santa Barbara County. Last month, the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California upheld Santa Barbara County’s denial of ExxonMobil’s trucking plan.

Where’s the Recession? By Harlan Green, Special to VOICE
I
S WAITING FOR THE NEXT RECESSION becoming a useless guessing game? Maybe even the event itself has less meaning these days when conditions can change so quickly.
We have declining existing home sales yet surging new-home sales in September. And the first ‘advance’ estimate of third quarter economic growth made a huge jump to 4.9 percent, up from 2.1 percent in Q2. Economists and pundits have been calling for a recession since the beginning of this year. Yet the Fed’s rate hikes haven’t dampened consumer spending, which grew four percent in Q3. It highlights the fact that American consumers power more than 60 percent of economic activity. And inflation continued to decline, contrary to the Fed’s expectations, which is a growth booster. The personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index increased 2.9 percent, compared with an increase of 2.5 percent in Q2, per the GDP report. Yet excluding more volatile food and energy prices, the PCE price index increased 2.4 percent, compared with an increase of 3.7 percent.
Economic VOICE By Harlan Green
So where is the recession? It doesn’t have to be two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. The U.S. economy began to expand again in the third quarter of 2022 after two quarters of negative growth per the above BEA graph.
The technical definition of a recession is when basic growth indicators such as nonfarm payrolls, retail sales, and industrial production have peaked and begin a prolonged decline.
That could still happen next year if long-term interest rates remain high. Yet who does that really affect? Companies like to plan ahead so corporations can cut back investing in future growth - but our federal government is spending $trillions on modernizing the economy as well as fighting both hot and cold wars. And retail sales keep expanding. Seasonally adjusted sales came off ground zero (+0.4 percent) in June 2023 and expanded three percent in September. Now is a good time for Fed Chairman Powell to announce that inflation has been conquered, as so many economists are doing. For instance, Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman said recently: “Growth, both in gross domestic product and in jobs, has remained solid. But standard measures of underlying inflation are now under three percent and falling. Fancier statistical models maintained by the New York Fed tell the same story, and say that underlying inflation has fallen by half since its peak last year. The reason? The Fed’s anti-inflation policies are working. But there is a time lag for higher interest rates to fully affect consumers and investors. Household wealth as well as incomes continue to stay ahead of inflation.

The Federal Reserve recently announced that the average family’s net worth jumped 37 percent between 2019 and 2022. That’s the largest three-year increase since the Fed began conducting the survey more than three decades ago, according to its latest Survey of Consumer Finances. It’s not only due to consumers being fully employed but a massive increase in housing values during the pandemic when mortgage rates bottomed. Both the Great Depression and Great Recession were catastrophic times, but how often do such events happen? It doesn’t look like we have as much to fear given the current economic recovery.

Bike Boulevard Creates Four One Way Block Segments on Sola Street A Westside Community Paseos Project
C
The Transportation plan calls for the Bike Boulevard to extend from Castillo Street across Sola Street to Alta Visa Street and include Anapamu Street. Currently the four concrete bikeways have been constructed between Bath Street and Garden Street and the four corners are now marked with “Do Not Enter, Bicycles Only” signs.
The project creates lanes that are rated class 3 bike lanes. While cement work continues on Sola, multiple signs directing traffic have been erected, with some temporary stop signs in place. For more information about the Project visit SantaBarbaraCA.gov/WestsideCommunityPaseos. – VOICE staff report

EMENT BARRIERS HAVE BROKEN SOLA STREET into four one way blocks to accommodate a bike boulevard as outlined in the Santa Barbara Bicycle Master Plan, now called the Westside Community Paseos Project. The new concrete features are considered, “New safety features, including traffic diverters, traffic signals, and pedestrian ramps,” according to a city press release. The Westside Communities Project does not detail how many concrete safety lanes and ramps will be created for bicycles.
“The next steps for the Project include paving Sola Street between Chapala and Garden Streets during the week of November 6, followed by pavement striping and activation of traffic signals in late November/early December,” the city announcement stated.
City Press Release:
City Press Release:
THE WESTSIDE COMMUNITY PASEOS PROJECT is funded through Active Transportation Program grant funds and will provide walking and biking connections within the Westside and from the Westside through the Downtown.
EL PROYECTO DE PASEOS COMUNITARIOS DEL WESTSIDE está financiado a través de fondos de subvención del Programa de Transporte Activo y proporcionará conexiones para caminar y andar en bicicleta dentro del Westside, y desde el Westside hasta el Centro..
Construction Update for the Westside Community Paseos Project
Actualización de la construcción del Proyecto de Paseos Comunitarios del Lado Oeste
The next steps for the Project include paving Sola Street between Chapala and Garden Streets during the week of November 6, followed by pavement striping and activation of traffic signals in late November/early December.
Los próximos pasos del proyecto incluyen la pavimentación de la calle Sola entre las calles Chapala y Garden durante la semana del 6 de noviembre, seguida de la señalización del pavimento y la activación de los semáforos a finales de noviembre o principios de diciembre.
New safety features, including traffic diverters, traffic signals, and pedestrian ramps have been installed on Sola Street between De la Vina and Garden Streets. The traffic diverters located at Sola Street/De La Vina Street and Sola Street/Santa Barbara Street restrict through traffic for vehicles, while cyclists and pedestrians may continue through. The purpose of these features is to reduce vehicular volumes and speed on Sola Street, so cyclists can share the roadway comfortably with vehicles with no parking removal. These improvements provide a strong east-west cycling connection through Downtown.
Se han instalado nuevos elementos de seguridad, incluyendo desviadores de tráfico, semáforos y rampas peatonales en la calle Sola entre las calles De la Vina y Garden. Los desviadores de tráfico situados en Sola Street/De La Vina Street y Sola Street/Santa Barbara Street restringen el paso de vehículos, mientras que los ciclistas y peatones pueden continuar. El propósito de estas características es reducir los volúmenes de vehículos y la velocidad en la calle Sola, por lo que los ciclistas pueden compartir la calle cómodamente con los vehículos sin eliminación de estacionamiento de calle. Estas mejoras proporcionan una fuerte conexión ciclista este-oeste a través del centro de la ciudad.

Santa Barbara Museum of Art
Two Exhibitions Celebrated with a Joint Opening
A
PHOTO EXHIBITION OF WORKS BY ELLSWORTH KELLY and a Chinese painting exhibition opened simultaneously with a joint reception at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art on October 14th. A gathering for board members, donors, and supporters of the gallery was privileged to hear brief comments from curators from both exhibits.

Flowers on a River: The Art of Chinese Flowerand-Bird painting 1368 to 1911 is the title of the Chinese painting exhibition.“Flower-and-bird painting is one of the three main genres of traditional Chinese painting, along with landscape and figure painting. Emerging in the third century, the practice expanded to include a variety of plants, fruits and vegetables, aquatic creatures, insects and other animals, details of nature that are intimate in everyday surroundings. From colorful and descriptive portrayals of nature’s alluring offerings to monochromatic renderings of nature’s forms and rhythms, Flowers on a River reveals a diverse world of great beauty and private emotions,” stated Susan Tai, the Elizabeth Atkins Curator of Asian Art, in program notes.
A highlight of Flowers on a River is the West Coast premier display of the 42-foot-long monochromatic handscroll painting, Flowers on a River (1697), by the famous monk artist Zhu Da.

In the next rooms is the first museum exhibition devoted solely to Ellsworth Kelly’s photographs, organized by the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, which were lent by the Ellsworth Kelly Foundation in Spencertown, New York.

Charles Newman and Trustee Joan Photography and New Media “Ellsworth Davidson Kelly (1923-2015), is one of the most revered artists of the past 100 years. From the late 1940s on, Kelly created an era-defining body of abstract art based on forms and phenomena he intuitively found in the environments around him. Largely made for himself, Kelly’s photographs record these discoveries across the decades in tightly composed images of nature and architecture, which often include striking geometric effects of bright sunlight and deep shadow,” noted Charlie Wylie, Curator of Photography and New Media, in exhibition notes.

RFG Talk: Secret Clocks: The U.S. Military, Einstein’s Relativity, and the Global Positioning System NOV
7
TUE
4:00 – 5:30 PM 4080 HSSB Learn more: bit.ly/MPP-RFG
For nearly a decade, beginning in the mid-1970s, a debate unfolded among physicists and engineers over how best to include effects from Einstein’s general theory of relativity in the new military technology now known as the Global Positioning System (GPS). Much of the debate played out behind the scenes, in memos, reports, and special review sessions arranged by the U.S. military. Theoretical physicists who had no relationship with the project criticized early efforts to incorporate relativistic effects within GPS designs, complaining that significant information was not shared by military contractors. Other experts in relativity, who consulted more closely with the U.S. Air Force, responded that the outside critics had little relevant experience with real-world engineering applications, and that their criticisms amounted to mathematical irrelevancies.
DAVID KAISER
Massachusetts Institute of Technology Throughout the debate, few doubted that relativity–with its counterintuitive notions of space and time–needed to be taken seriously in the design and operation of GPS. Rather, they disagreed over how best to incorporate deep lessons from relativity in an engineering-relevant way, at a time when the stakes for the new military technology loomed large. David Kaiser is Germeshausen Professor of the History of Science and Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is the author of several award-winning books, including Quantum Legacies: Dispatches from an Uncertain World.
