Like this.
Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, that's good. Okay. Sorry for this.
So I will just briefly tell you some person some of actually describe some of
our activities in the Southeast Europe. And I listed some names of people that are
involved in these and you're doing this all together. It will be as an expense
examples. I wish I will show most of our activities here in Croatia, but this is
not constrained only Croatia This is as you see, we have identities participation
to hold the entire region. So the idea all these activities is to educate, engage and
motivate kids, youngsters and adults, too. As you're, as you're doing these sessions
are how ignited my interest in science. And above all, what is actually very much
needed in this region is to connect people and offer a optimistic look at the future
because So, this is this is what people are lacking here, particularly connection
between them and science and art, this is a very, very good tool to connect people.
And I have to say that all these activities actually, somehow around the
origin project, and I have to do specially thanks to Michael, the art of snap and CMS
where he who started all basically all of these activities and Michael is the most
of our all of all of our colleagues here.
So, so I will now just present you briefly some of the activities and we'll tell you
what are our plans for for the future. So we, we can during last like 10 years,
because really a lot more than 700 of them, I think go to lectures and seminars
and workshops, as I said, I just presented to you the biggest one. So one of them was
culture collision format event in Croatia. Two years ago, as a part of our
conference, if you are organizing if you translate these English This is the origin
and evolution of the universe through art and science. And we rented the very old
city home. And you know, the split is one of the oldest town in the world. It's
actually 100 years old. And we're in an old city hall and it was a three storey
building, Venetian style in which he set up an exhibition of art and science and
then he organized some lectures and discussions and workshops. This was in the
in the city so at the end of September, it was very good because it was also for
citizens and for the tourists as well and and, and guys that organizing this one
museum they said this was the most visited art, art exposition ever, because people
were attracted by the universe and ality The This was pretty, pretty successful.
And, and the as you see in this slide, so in the first floor, we set up the science
exhibition and then the ground floor we have an art exhibition that we brought
from CERN and that exhibition travel through the region, as you will see just
shortly, if you want you can click there and see the exhibition. But in the inside
this for this what we wanted to test was the idea to do something we should call
train the trainer's so the idea was to invite kids, students of primary school
students in the secondary school students, to teach them and to motivate them so that
afterwards when we visit their schools, or when they organize something like
researchers night is this European event that they present our our artworks in the
science expositions, and ever pretty much For that, and you have to say that this
was very successful and, and even now, in these days between these kids, they're
becoming students, they're meeting them and try to involve them further. And
somehow we have some kind of ambassadors of, of science in general and our science
and some of them you they even enrolled physics afterwards. So this was very, very
successful. Then after, after the exhibition, then we went to the schools of
the students, and primary and the secondary schools. And then we set up a
part of this exhibition. And as I said, we engage the students that motivate and
taught them in the in the in the previous event. And what was interesting, for
example, one in one of these events, there was oh, there, all of the students there
were female students, and they were pretty much interested in science. So on the
picture above, we set up these gravitational table with them. So I would
say that this was really successful. Test the train the trainer's
techniques.
Then we went with his exposition to smaller towns that are on sticks just to
test these ideas Well, as you will see later in our plans. Then he went to one
small town, which is called English key on between Croatia and Bosnia. It's
integration. They they're there we invited What was interesting he connected to
orchestra, small orchestra from that town, which is the size of three the whole town
and and the orchestra from Tori. So they came to me with key they had a concert
together later, the next year, they they actually, they went to Tori, they had the
concert there. So that was a musical exchange as well. But then we use these
occasions to set up the exposition to run some workshops. Even musics in physics,
for sure position this is from Karen and then the tested code code Does it work if
you come to the small village, which is like 5000 people, and you meet basically
all the secondary school students there, almost almost all of them. And then you
run with them lectures and workshops and everything else. And even the master
class, we run the master class, offline master class. And that was pretty much
successful. Now we got coming back every year since then to visit the school, the
workshops and lectures. Then, what was organised as well was, for example, some
of the events in Technion Montenegro. And I have to say that this boat is run
Montenegro is pretty successful, partly thanks to the fact that the minister
Minister of Science is a sign of banana issues from CERN. And and Michael is very
much active there. They run the art exhibitions, public lectures, coalition
workshops, and the support of ministry, and the Pretty on the pretty wide scale
involved in lots of schools and students. Then we went to survivor with the, with
this exhibition so we actually rented the truck to bring everything from CERN to
split. And then from split to Sarajevo, then from Sarajevo to he was killed and
from us get back to Sir, he wanted to test these, these these as well and it was
working rather smoothly, I would say. So in September, we set up a smaller
exposition in a smaller place, but almost the full exposition like is and then we
run the exhibition lectures and the and the attendee audience was pretty high it
was more than 405 students attending the lectures and exposition. So that was also
successful. And now as you will see, we were we were planning to come back to
Sarah will be the exposition which is even larger than this one. But of course it's
really because of all these events be postponed over time. Then we run a smaller
workshop and the exhibition in Tirana. So we wanted to test all the, all the scales,
as I told you, we rent the truck to bring everything from CERN to see what's inside
as well. But for Tirana, then we actually have a very small exhibition, which fits
into the suitcase. And then and then we were testing this troubling ship case like
exhibition of posters and some of the scientific things. And this was run by by
Daniel Denegri, and we'll be asking, because what we want what we are doing. So
so we are we are going to do some of these cities and setting up small things, trying
to find local people to help us because we don't want to come only in the exhibition
or lectures of our everything. We want to engage local people, so that he create the
community, even the community, even later on participate in the experiments and the
And then this community then we come back eventually, after in the following years
and then we do these larger exhibitions, and workshops and everything and then this
is how we grow. So that was the idea which we tested in Tirana, it's working was
working. So now we will see how it will develop in the future. Then we in Croatia,
for example, we are pretty much active, we are running a lot of lectures. During the
last like five years, we run more than 600 lectures, maybe citizen more than 50,000
kids.
Basically, if we cover Hong Kong, Croatia in trouble. Now we extended this to the
neighboring countries as well. So we actually published books and videos. And
during this current team, we wanted what we did. All these lectures and lectures
that we have, we be converted them to the YouTube lectures and there are 30 of them
for the moment or 30 minutes lectures and some of us the becoming even YouTubers,
because this is now being followed on YouTube
and
all this region is very much active in master classes. I think that we organize
more than 50 of them in the in the region since 2013. We are covering a lot of
cities and schools and as you all know we are very, very, very enthusiastic about
these master classes they are in pretty pretty good. Also we initiated teachers
trainings in all these countries. And now we have it, we have it this and then the
this teacher teachers we are then running science science fairs and festivals. So we
are using these teachers as ambassadors of science and then and then now we are
entering the So, during last like 10 years, we were running these all these
things, some of them are more involved, but some of them is testing events. Now,
we would like to go further to create the network of organization to these that
there is a list, this is just a list of some of these organizations, some of them
already expressed interest and some of them we would like to involve, then we
would like to widen the participation to all the countries in the region in some of
the countries This is more involved, developed, but in some of the countries
via is I told you we go to specific cities and we try to find the people that are
interested in that to to provide any, we we would like to structure the activities
on on the more serious and professional way, and the particular emphasis we would
like to give to schools and teachers, because if you recall these activities
materialized It's easy to come in and set up the show and show up and impress
students. But if you leave and then leave teachers with them, you can produce a lot
of even even some of the counterproductive things like, you know, students could say,
well, this is so amazing why our other lectures and look amazing, then then you
actually you reduce the authority of teacher so so what you're trying to do is
to involve teachers together with us, so that they when they stay in the school
after us that we provide them all the tools and everything, and how does it
motivated them as well. And then they continue to spread the ideas and
we recently applied to some projects,
particularly cost as most some citizen science projects. Thank you notice and
Sophocles from Greece. They're very much a field All together. For example, we had
the project, which is right to connect these three cities in, in Bosnia
Herzegovina, Sarah, Luca and muster, which are and then to organize a big event in
them in the cities and then to spread around the cities to the smaller cities
organized events as well as we now have set up and tested, that it really works.
And this so we were setting up some some dates. We wanted to bring some kind of
tracking with us last year. But obviously this is not being postponed for next year
or in the near future. There are some developments that Michael is doing with
Georgian colleagues to doing pretty nice things with augmented reality. So we will
include these in our in our future work. So in conclusion, so in collaboration With
our CMS origin CERN and many other partners, we are building a sustainable
integrative system which we would like to integrate in schools and universities for
promotional science, this is what we are holding but we are concentrating mostly to
the southeast region, which will which will basically in addition to promote
science connected people, I would say that this is this is maybe one of the most
important aspects of art and science, at least initially.
Okay, so that was all from me. Thanks.
Thank you very much if it sir, so, do we have any questions? So no one has raised
their hand just yet. I don't know if anyone in the any on the panel
has heard me I have a short question. I don't know if I missed that. I mean, who
pays for you, you know, traveling around that mean and what, how many people do you
travel? And?
Oh, well, it depends when we, you know, if this is set up for like one week or two
weeks, then we then we send all this, this is why we try to collaborate with local
people. So we sent the track to them. One of us is going there traveling the truck,
by ourself to set up the exhibition. And then then then we come maybe few of us at
the beginning and then we, these exposition is maintained by the local
people. And then eventually we come back again, in the past what we were doing, we
were doing this, trying to do this in parallel, some other activities like for
example, schools that we were running inside of with the conference that we are
running, but in the future, we would like we would do it in this way to find a look
at the condition don't find the local local people then we won't do it because
they doesn't make to us Well, our people always make sense. But to us, it's more
Our goal is more involved with local people, then the teacher.
Thank you.
So we have a question from Andre.
You should be able to speak Andre,
do you hear me?
Yes. Yeah. So thanks for the nice talk. It's very impressive how many things
you're doing there. So I have a small question about you say that they have some
kind of first use cases submission. Is it possible to look what is inside and have
some kind of I know, I was thinking about making something similar in sanitary
burka, and so be great to, to know your experience and what you present there.
Okay, so just raise your mail. I can send you what is there, but basically what is
that for the moment is just This these posters, we have a roll up of these
posters but then we print them on the textile in this textile is very light and
then yeah I know yeah
is it possible to to have files of such posters just to change something might be
there and to bring them
no of course this is called we didn't actually translate some of them in
creation you get the PDF and then you replace the text in the PDF with your your
text
and in fact the same question about like turn pasta we should have around Did you
take them from some words? Some but yes, sir.
Well, I I will let Michael to answer to this because this is bookkeeper Michael.
Well, yeah, I know Michael Hello. You know me so I will just write you an email then.
I but in general, it's it's right was what he said. It's we are using the images you
have seen in the slide he showed from split from the exits. We just there we
were using roll up posters and panels, but for the suitcase we are printing a smaller
set of scientific and artistic posters and on a textile and then everything fits in
one big suitcase and then you add up a few hardware pieces and then you can decorate
in any place in in is more in smaller venue. So and to use as a framework for
for your presentations and talks and discussions, as you see here in in Tirana.
So and the posters are actually we develop in cooperation with with our team, whoever
is involved. So if you if you are interested in getting the in discussion,
and we select and define and design, the posters, whoever participates at something
in our A folder and everybody can use it. So it's it's it's the how the events are
always designed for the for the local community. And then, of course, we can
reuse it for the for the next purpose. It's always under development.
So I will write you an email then both of you
have a question from Connie as well.
Not so much a
question just to say when I hear you talking about a suitcase, Andre I think
Claire butare has developed something like Atlas in a suitcase for public outreach. I
don't know if Sasha Clara remember that. I don't know if she's still got it. But it
is something along those lines. It contains more than posters I think some
stuff. And then if anybody does need some general kind of LFC posters, I've had some
roll ups made for our site Brazilians at the music festivals. For our program there
and I'm very happy to lend them out. I've tried to get certain columns to centralize
all of this stuff, but so far that hasn't been done. So I've got a lot of stuff in
my office. Anybody would like to borrow it. You're very welcome.
Oh, hopefully we'll be able to come to CERN. One point. Yeah.
Some some time I will be able to get out of my sloppy tiny working clothes.
Okay, thanks, Connie. All if there are no other questions, thanks to its I mean,
there is a bit of time if people want to ask questions of either Marian or Herbie.
So do Raise your hand if so, but but if not, just to remind you that tomorrow, we
despina is giving a summary of outreach activities from the early experiments at
245. To do connect to to listen to that. And we have the plenary sessions obviously
starting again, in about a half an hour's time. I think, Michael, you want to say
something
I'd like it because your rates are way more Herbie maybe Herbie can Yes, get get
some of that link because we are in the chat I realized more people are interested
in in this video presentation of the differentials. And if you can somehow get
some references to that we can have a look also to the Oxford shows. So it's more are
available as as as more we can learn out of it.
So I'm not quite sure. So I put the YouTube link is in the chat that should be
visible to everybody.
Yeah. And,
and our part so it's a longer thing this astronomy on tap our part starts at one
hour 19 and if you want to see a video of the particle physics Show, I would ask you
to please send me an email. And so I'm just I'll just share the link, I'll open
for you for a while. And then I'll close it again. Because Because of rights, we're
not allowed to put that in. And then the Oxford show, if you go to their web page,
there's a link to their show. So if you just type in accelerates Oxford show, but
there's also the link is in my talk. So if you look in the slides, and it's a one
hour show, and oh, the particle, so this show that it's in the YouTube link there
is in German, but the particle physics show is in English, so whether that might
be relevant.
That's great stuff.
Thank you. Thank you every
so desperately, I would like to say something.
Yeah, if you can put this link on the the Indiegogo page because I think when the
session ends, it will be lost.
Yes, exactly. And so I quickly copy pasting. Yes.
So can consortia do that I don't know how to do that.
Maybe you can do it. on your on your top, you can add a link normally only in the
code. We can ask
the organizers.
Yeah, unfortunately, we don't have editing rights.
No, no, no, but they but Herbie should be able to add the link on his in dico draw
on his place. I think.
My work Yeah. I'll try that. Thanks.
Okay. Thanks,
Carrie stone.
Welcome.
Connie, did you want to talk again? Or is your hand just raised from before?
Sorry, sorry. No,
fine, fine. Okay. Well, I think we have no more questions and unless there's anyone
on the panel, so just like to thank again, the speakers for their contributions and
thanks for everyone for attending. And this is the end of the second outreach
parallel HCP. So do check in check in for this for this talk tomorrow. But
otherwise, have a nice afternoon and a good weekend. Thanks very much and there
will be a recording of this event.
