SUMMARY:Finding Your Place in Science: A reflective writing workshop on belonging\, identity\, and scientific paths
DESCRIPTION:A scientific identity – essentially\, whether a person feels they belong in the world of science —is associated with longevity and success in STEM-related fields. But what does it mean to belong in science? Does it matter if you identify as a science person? \nAs part of the Wisconsin Science Festival\, the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery (WID) is offering a writing workshop focused on scientific identity\, aimed at undergrad and graduate students\, but also open to the public. We’ll discuss some of the components researchers have identified as part of this sense of belonging in science; consider some of the conscious and unconscious assumptions we might have about who belongs in science; and expand our definitions and explore how varied a scientific identity can be. With a mix of discussion in small and large groups and impromptu writing\, we’ll investigate the broad concept of an identity and how it can be useful in the face of obstacles. Finally\, we’ll consider the more specific idea of belonging in the scientific realm\, what helps you find that sense of belonging and what might prevent it. \nThis workshop is not solely for people who already feel they belong–plenty of people study and work in science without being certain if they do–but for anyone who is interested in using writing and discussion to consider and clarify what this concept of scientific identity means to you. \nThis workshop is led by the Illuminating Discovery Hub’s Writer-in-Residence\, Michelle Wildgen.

SUMMARY:Michelle Thaller: Cosmic Treasures – Chasing Asteroids for Clues to the Origins of Life
DESCRIPTION:Join Michelle Thaller\, former NASA science communicator\, for an evening exploring the origins of life. Thaller\, in conversation with Eric Wilcots\, Dean of the College of Letters & Sciences and Professor in the Dept of Astronomy\, will talk about the OSIRIS-REx mission – an audacious project to return a sample from an asteroid. No problem\, right? Just chase down a small rock 200 million miles away\, traveling literally faster than a speeding bullet\, vacuum up a sample of its surface\, and shoot it back to Earth. The story turned out to be more difficult\, dramatic\, and rewarding than anyone expected. Join us to find out why we went to so much trouble to bring back an ancient sample of our solar system and what was waiting inside that absolutely blew our minds.

SUMMARY:Oakwood Chamber Players Fall Concert: Musical Mystique
DESCRIPTION:The Oakwood Chamber Players usher in a hint of mystery and macabre with performances at Oakwood Villages Prairie Ridge (5565 Tancho Drive) on Friday\, October 24\, and University Woods (6205 Mineral Point Road) on Saturday\, October 25\, both at 7 p.m.\, followed by a 2 p.m. matinee at Arts + Literature Laboratory on Sunday\, October 26 (111 South Livingston Street). \nThe ensemble’s swath of strings\, winds\, and piano will present an array of impish and dramatic musical delights\, linked together by the spirited and mischievous “Polka” by Alfred Schnittke (1934-1998). Piano Quartet in A minor by Gustav Mahler (1860-1911)\, a profound early work left unfinished\, included musical sketches that Schnittke attempted to complete and quoted in his own later work. Fellow Russian Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975)\, one of Schnittke’s primary musical influences\, wrote his powerfully moving String Quartet No. 3 amidst the climate of Stalinist cultural oppression. \nTwo living composers add further dimension to the lineup of 20th century heavy hitters\, Korine Fujiwara (“Artfully layered and knitted together…\,” The Wall Street Journal) and GRAMMY nominee Miguel del Aguila (“Vivacious rhythmic…inspired musicianship…\,” Latino Magazine\, Washington DC). Del Aguila’s “Tango Trio” taps into the Argentine-Uruguayan tango and Brazilian samba\, while Fujiwara’s “Out of the Depths” draws inspiration from sacred music of the Renaissance and Baroque periods. \nOakwood Chamber Players serve as the professional resident ensemble for the Oakwood Village senior living community. Artistic Directors Valree Casey (oboe/English horn)\, Amanda Szczys (bassoon)\, Marie Pauls (viola)\, Maggie Townsend (cello)\, and new associate member Stacy Regehr (piano) will be joined by guest violinists Leanne Kelso and Holly Wagner. \nTickets are $25 general admission\, $20 seniors\, and $5 for students. Run time\, 75 minutes\, no intermission. For more information and advance ticket sales\, visit oakwoodchamberplayers.com.

SUMMARY:Oakwood Chamber Players Fall Concert: Musical Mystique
DESCRIPTION:The Oakwood Chamber Players usher in a hint of mystery and macabre with performances at Oakwood Villages Prairie Ridge (5565 Tancho Drive) on Friday\, October 24\, and University Woods (6205 Mineral Point Road) on Saturday\, October 25\, both at 7 p.m.\, followed by a 2 p.m. matinee at Arts + Literature Laboratory on Sunday\, October 26 (111 South Livingston Street). \nThe ensemble’s swath of strings\, winds\, and piano will present an array of impish and dramatic musical delights\, linked together by the spirited and mischievous “Polka” by Alfred Schnittke (1934-1998). Piano Quartet in A minor by Gustav Mahler (1860-1911)\, a profound early work left unfinished\, included musical sketches that Schnittke attempted to complete and quoted in his own later work. Fellow Russian Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975)\, one of Schnittke’s primary musical influences\, wrote his powerfully moving String Quartet No. 3 amidst the climate of Stalinist cultural oppression. \nTwo living composers add further dimension to the lineup of 20th century heavy hitters\, Korine Fujiwara (“Artfully layered and knitted together…\,” The Wall Street Journal) and GRAMMY nominee Miguel del Aguila (“Vivacious rhythmic…inspired musicianship…\,” Latino Magazine\, Washington DC). Del Aguila’s “Tango Trio” taps into the Argentine-Uruguayan tango and Brazilian samba\, while Fujiwara’s “Out of the Depths” draws inspiration from sacred music of the Renaissance and Baroque periods. \nOakwood Chamber Players serve as the professional resident ensemble for the Oakwood Village senior living community. Artistic Directors Valree Casey (oboe/English horn)\, Amanda Szczys (bassoon)\, Marie Pauls (viola)\, Maggie Townsend (cello)\, and new associate member Stacy Regehr (piano) will be joined by guest violinists Leanne Kelso and Holly Wagner. \nTickets are $25 general admission\, $20 seniors\, and $5 for students. Run time\, 75 minutes\, no intermission. For more information and advance ticket sales\, visit oakwoodchamberplayers.com.

SUMMARY:Oakwood Chamber Players Fall Concert: Musical Mystique
DESCRIPTION:The Oakwood Chamber Players usher in a hint of mystery and macabre with performances at Oakwood Villages Prairie Ridge (5565 Tancho Drive) on Friday\, October 24\, and University Woods (6205 Mineral Point Road) on Saturday\, October 25\, both at 7 p.m.\, followed by a 2 p.m. matinee at Arts + Literature Laboratory on Sunday\, October 26 (111 South Livingston Street). \nThe ensemble’s swath of strings\, winds\, and piano will present an array of impish and dramatic musical delights\, linked together by the spirited and mischievous “Polka” by Alfred Schnittke (1934-1998). Piano Quartet in A minor by Gustav Mahler (1860-1911)\, a profound early work left unfinished\, included musical sketches that Schnittke attempted to complete and quoted in his own later work. Fellow Russian Dmitri Shostakovich (1906-1975)\, one of Schnittke’s primary musical influences\, wrote his powerfully moving String Quartet No. 3 amidst the climate of Stalinist cultural oppression. \nTwo living composers add further dimension to the lineup of 20th century heavy hitters\, Korine Fujiwara (“Artfully layered and knitted together…\,” The Wall Street Journal) and GRAMMY nominee Miguel del Aguila (“Vivacious rhythmic…inspired musicianship…\,” Latino Magazine\, Washington DC). Del Aguila’s “Tango Trio” taps into the Argentine-Uruguayan tango and Brazilian samba\, while Fujiwara’s “Out of the Depths” draws inspiration from sacred music of the Renaissance and Baroque periods. \nOakwood Chamber Players serve as the professional resident ensemble for the Oakwood Village senior living community. Artistic Directors Valree Casey (oboe/English horn)\, Amanda Szczys (bassoon)\, Marie Pauls (viola)\, Maggie Townsend (cello)\, and new associate member Stacy Regehr (piano) will be joined by guest violinists Leanne Kelso and Holly Wagner. \nTickets are $25 general admission\, $20 seniors\, and $5 for students. Run time\, 75 minutes\, no intermission. For more information and advance ticket sales\, visit oakwoodchamberplayers.com.
