Communicating Across the Cosmos Workshop (Seth Shostak)



Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 10 Νοε 2014
For over a half century, astronomers
involved in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) have
scanned the skies for signals from distant civilizations. Would humans
be able to decode information-rich signals from another planet? Could we
create a “universal language” that would be meaningful to an
independently evolved civilization?

To help answer these
questions, on November 10-11 2014 the SETI Institute convened a
multidisciplinary, international workshop at its headquarters in
Mountain View, California. Speakers from six countries drew on
disciplines ranging from astronomy and mathematics, to anthropology and
linguistics, as they debated the best ways to create meaningful
messages. While the two-day workshop was closed to the public, all talks
will be posted on the SETI Institute’s YouTube channel.

On the
day following the workshop, several of the speakers will summarize the
key ideas discussed as part of the SETI Institute’s public weekly
colloquium series, held on November 12, at 12:00 noon.
