Microcosmos
Il popolo dell'erba - Documentario Soggiorno in un pianeta sconosciuto, un prato, una giungla d'erba dove, ora meravigliosa e ora feroce, pulsa la vita dei suoi abitanti: formiche, lumache, coccinelle, api, bruchi, ragni, scarabei, cavallette, farfalle. Riprese sull'infinitamente piccolo aprono le porte su un mondo surreale e fantastico.Collected in mova Feb 18, 2012 -
International Science & Engineering Visualization Challenge
Some of science's most powerful statements are not made in words. From the diagrams of DaVinci to Rosalind Franklins x-rays, visualization of research has a long and literally illustrious history. To illustrate is to enlighten. The National Science Foundation (NSF) and Science created the International Science & Engineering Visualization Challenge to celebrate that grand tradition--and to encourage its continued growth. The spirit of the competition is for communicating science, engineering and technology fCollected in mova Feb 2, 2012 -

Evolution Episode 5 Why Sex ? (PBS)
Broadcast (2001) In evolutionary terms, sex is more important than life itself. Sex fuels evolutionary change by adding variation to the gene pool. The powerful urge to pass our genes on to the next generation has likely changed the face of human culture in ways we're only beginning to understand. Evolution determines who lives, who dies, and who passes traits on to the next generation. The process plays a critical role in our daily lives, yet it is one of the most overlooked and misunderstood concepts everCollected in mova Jan 6, 2012 -
Evolution Episode 4 Evolutionary Arms Race (PBS)
Broadcast (2001) Survival of the fittest: Raw competition? Intense cooperation? Both are essential. Interactions between and within species are among the most powerful evolutionary forces on Earth, and understanding them may be a key to our own survival. Evolution determines who lives, who dies, and who passes traits on to the next generation. The process plays a critical role in our daily lives, yet it is one of the most overlooked and misunderstood concepts ever described. The Evolution series goals are tCollected in mova Jan 6, 2012 -
Evolution Episode 3 Extinction (PBS)
Broadcast (2001) An extinction event is a sharp decrease in the abundance of macroscopic life. Five mass extinctions have occurred since life began on Earth. Are humans causing the next mass extinction? And what does evolutionary theory predict for the world we will leave to our descendants? Evolution determines who lives, who dies, and who passes traits on to the next generation. The process plays a critical role in our daily lives, yet it is one of the most overlooked and misunderstood concepts ever descrCollected in mova Jan 6, 2012 -
Evolution Episode 2 Great Transformations (PBS)
Broadcast (2001) What underlies the incredible diversity of life on Earth? How have complex life forms evolved? The journey from water to land, the return of land mammals to the sea, and the emergence of humans all suggest that creatures past and present are members of a single tree of life. Evolution determines who lives, who dies, and who passes traits on to the next generation. The process plays a critical role in our daily lives, yet it is one of the most overlooked and misunderstood concepts ever descrCollected in mova Jan 6, 2012 -
Evolution Episode 1 Darwin's Dangerous Idea (PBS)
Broadcast (2001) Why does Charles Darwin's "dangerous idea" matter more today than ever, and how does it explain the past and predict the future of life on Earth? The first show interweaves the drama of Darwin's life with current documentary sequences, introducing key concepts of evolution. Evolution determines who lives, who dies, and who passes traits on to the next generation.

Darwin's Dangerous Idea Episode 2 Born Equal (BBC)
Broadcast (2009) The second episode explains how under the banner of Survival of the Fittest, Darwin's theory of natural selection has been used to justify imperial expansion and the oppression of indigenous peoples; to inform the science of eugenics -- the selective breeding of humans which was implemented in the United States in the early 20th century; and to provide a veneer of scientific respectability to Nazi plans to create an Aryan master race. It was also used quite explicitly to explain the twistedCollected in mova Jan 6, 2012 -
Darwin's Dangerous Idea Episode 1 Body & Soul (BBC)
Broadcast (2009) In the first episode of the three-part series, Andrew Marr explores how Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection has taken on a life of its own far beyond the world of science. He argues that Darwin's theory has transformed our understanding of what it means to be human. Over the last 150 years, Darwin's ideas have challenged the need for a creator, undermined religious authority, and provided new ways of looking at the origins of human morality. Marr's journey begins following DaCollected in mova Jan 6, 2012 -

World Science Festival: Mind and Machine: The Future of Thinking
Creative thought is surely among our most precious and mysterious capabilities. But can powerful computers rival the human brain? As thinking, remembering, and innovating become increasingly interwoven with technological advances, what are we capable of? What do we lose? Join Luciano Floridi, John Donoghue, Gary Small and Rosalind Picard for a thought-provoking consideration of thinking.Collected in mova Apr 7, 2011 -
World Science Festival: Creating Consciousness
Can consciousness be created? Is there a range of types of consciousness? In reaction to a thought experiment proposed by John Hockenberry, philosopher Luciano Floridi and John Donoghue wrestle with the idea of “an internet residing in our brains.”Collected in mova Apr 7, 2011 -
