But whats going on here a stage on which scientists present their works as science land in the Natural History museum not its also had the idea of presenting education to the people as a theatre of knowledge. That comes from here for you from this very institute the incredible jason dunlop. My offering is called my best friend the number its from me in Southeast Asia and dates back to the cretaceous. Hes talking about a harvestman spider thats ninety nine million years old jason done that speciality is fossil arachnids. My compass you could say thats all harvestman have a unique pieces. Yes this one has a long slender shape. As this one is a bit hard shaped at the tip but you could say the shape of the penis is almost more important in determining the particular species than the rest of the body. Jason dunlop has discovered a whole new family of harvestman. He can you can just imagine it was ideal thought for the tabloids miniature fossilized penises discovered in a bell in his eighty ninety nine million years old the german press was quite from the press look what we had from the English Speaking papers around. Rock come out ninety nine million year old direction call your doctor immediately this joint force a nice daddy longlegs. Is bigger than your boyfriends its out of there. Would live minutes of laughed about that. Given his passion for technology he wouldnt have missed this multi touch table the Natural History museum is linked up virtually with other science museums all over germany. With my nan closing here in the i can dig in the history and collections of various museums here with my hands the. Rest of. The street is my kind of totally sorry i didnt want to cover what you were reading which to and i come here to haters in theory you can work with several people it is touch table you just have to watch out that you dont cover each Others Research results as im sure that. I mean the museum of roman and germanic antiquities in cologne virtually in addition to seeing the exhibits i can see the accompanying information. Museums as venues of experience that too was an idea lightness had a meeting with dr katherine full and its her job in the museum to present the information in an exciting manner. For three hundred years ago there was no radio and no television and yet scientists like like its explored ways to bring science and knowledge into the lives of ordinary people how did he go about that night and it was a great fan of curiosity cabinets collections that showcased a diverse range of objects theyre often seen as the ancestor of modern museums. If we looked at the world with lightness his eyes we wouldnt be able to open them wide enough to absorb all its marvels. Spend his lifetime dreaming of a theater im not sure i at artists a theater of nature and art much like the private collections amassed by european ability at the time these held in iran have extraordinary objects both of nature and human ingenuity the germans called them of wonder come around rooms of wonder. A new room of wonder based on historical models is the old british Art Collection in central berlin. Genea chef a russian german artist takes me on a trip to the age of life its an era of great exploratory voyages and scientific discoveries he was captivated by the spirit of likeness back in russia. Its home to the famous cabinet of curiosities in St Petersburg commissioned by peter the great and based on the ideas of lightness at the time people were fascinated by views on the inner workings of the human body. Many anatomical theatre is stage spectacles entirely in likenesses vein artists were engaged to draw the treasures in curiosity cabinets and distribute their work among the masses. Ole in second life and its just like leonardo was a rain a song smith and in other words he was a man who started exploring the depth and diversity of nature so air force here in the cabinet of curiosities we dont see clear boundaries between human figures animal figures and exotic objects exhortation and object are. Always in search of new ideas for his theater of art and nature live in its travel through europe viewing collections and inventions in paris the capital of science at the time he was seized by Creative Energy he watched attempts to fly across the same and was amazed at the time had come to devise a comprehensive plan for his own room of wonders. His famous devoted to ponce was a kind of blueprint for modern museums today a spectacular new exhibition space is taking shape in the future berlin city palace its home bought forum is being designed fully in line with allied needs his vision of a theater of nature and art with no admission fee right in the political heart of the capital. In order to realize his dream lived in its bombarded many powerful people in europe with his ideas over and over and over again peter the great for example but the victory march of museums around the world only began after likenesses dance three hundred years ago. Largeness is known as a mathematician historian and maybe as a diplomat definitely as a philosopher ive never viewed him as someone involved in Natural History how does this all fit together and live in its was a polymath and he actually did study Natural History. So he started collecting fossils and regarded them with a different approach than others before. Here fossils such as these relics of extinct species. He recognized that they really were animals or plants and wrote down his first thoughts on evolution and. So he was a cofounder of how intelligent. He was ahead of his time lived nature is an artist one that could teach humans almost everything as long as they open their eyes. He often explored the hearts mountains both above and below ground what could he learn from the caves about the history of the earth for example fossils. He was mistaken about some of the bones he found like many in those days he believed in unicorns. One cant help be amazed by lightning its he taught himself latin is a child studied law became a filler login historian and inventor he came up with his own comprehensive philosophy there was nothing that didnt interest him. As a twenty six year old he met the most famous mathematician of his time the dutchman christian huygens. As often you know he sought out people like poisons and horgans quickly got the impression which is what happens when a person babbles that this young man clearly didnt have the knowledge he believed he had it so. Thats why hogans put him to the test he was to add up the reciprocals of the triangular numbers to achieve the sum of to solve the problem. And he was an extremely talented young man who got to the top of the mathematical field in next to no chance three years which isnt possible anymore because our knowledge is now so extensive. Developed differential and integral calculus to this day mathematicians work with his system and the symbols he conceived. He still credited with being a founding father of calculus. Thats hearty ingenuity isnt it is todays engineering would be unthinkable without the calculus its almost. Wherever you have machines designed to perform a certain task or are talking about Electrical Engineering unique the method like needs invented for. Lipids wanted to improve the world everywhere he offered his services to his heirs to chronic employer as a mining engineer even though he didnt have a single days Work Experience silver and other all those were mined in the hands mountains mining and metallurgy where the High Tech Industries in his day like a madman leiden its turned out designs for new machines. He designed various windmills to pump water out of the mines he had ideas about mining techniques such as the endless rope but much didnt work in practice miners stonewalled and all these ideas came to nothing. But you have to bear in mind that he produced sketches but only very rough ones if you produce sketches like that as an engineer today he would have problems with his ideas were correct in principle but he underestimated the difficulty of execution says. Its better to do the same thing twice the nothing once. Its was in Constant Contact with the leading scientists engineers philosophers and literary figures of his day. He corresponded with more than a thousand people including such luminaries as Isaac Newton Christian huygens and author from dirac and the physicists from magna book. He disagreed with dirac and about the nature of the vacuum. Get it has staged a spectacular experiment in which he extracted the air of a two pong ball after which eight horses were harnessed at each end they were unable to drag upon the two homes of the sphere. To get a kill wanted to prove with this that the cosmos was empty. Couldnt imagine that for him space was filled by a subtle substance there was no space without matter he was wrong because there is a vacuum in space gas molecules sucked up by galaxies stars and planets. Such mistakes didnt stop light as an early and like moment intellectual he was seeking to eliminate the grey area between appearance and reality in doing so he made many trivial mistakes. In accordance with my commendable custom i have miscalculated on numerous occasions. Mental math wasnt his thing maybe thats why he developed a new mechanical calculating device with two groundbreaking improvements sprockets and the like. He even had them built. You know it was the first calculating machine that could monsta the four basic arithmetical operations addition subtraction multiplication and division. Calculating machines all the ancestors of our modern computers. The only reason they can compute is because lightness was able to reduce every number to the digits zero and one. Im asking the head of mathematician of the lightness institute to explain why this was a breakthrough for the Computer Science of the future. The worlds becoming increasingly digital weve all heard it before digital means zeros and ones a binary system devised by night minutes more than three hundred years ago but could you explain it to me so i understand it doesnt even. There are historical roots of course maybe even in the indian system that was developed further and purrfect by lightning he pushed it all back to the basic unit zeroes and ones. Often the zero is nothing and the one is gold if you say power of zeroes and power on this one then you can pick certain sequences of operations through binary sequences i think its physical trying to explain to me what the number three would look like in the binary system in the neon signs of stimulus in this lifetime im talking. Maybe it would be easiest to set up a small diagram draw a horizontal line between the first if it is formed as on im going to write down i will one hour to hour four and hour eight so if youre on the show the question is how often do i have to multiply the eight to get to three in the end. Times because the eight doesnt fit into a three exactly this is a zero what about the four you cant zero two doesnt fit the. Correct a zero no weve reached the truth. Fits once into the three. It fits so well check one no weve just got the one left. It fits once that gives us the three weve done it and thats how you show the three in the binary system lets solve another problem. How do we depict the seven in the binary system ill draw the same diagram again. You have no weight so as hero that was correct the forfeits once i won right so well put the one in the two fits one so one right again i want. And the one also fits once into the seven thats correct and thats the Number System of the seven and the last day of the creation was when everything was perfect. And its all want the day of rest was just wanting with nothingness zero at the beginning it was perceived as perfect. Now ive understood how computers take. As of yet weve produced a lot of nights in a short time that we cant keep up with life and its life scupper provide a blog without. He left a seemingly endless pile of notes for posterity. The burnin brandenburg academy of sciences is working through life and its his legacy live its himself was the first president and cofounder of the institute. A prolific writer he bequeath a staggering two hundred thousand pages its one of the largest scholarly legacies and part of unescos memory of the world program. How was all this preserved. When the lightness of his legacy was put under lock and key by his patronage of the elector of hanover from seventeen fourteen was also king george the first of england two nights because a lot and its new an awful lot about internal Family Matters and the dynastic history he was often intrusted with delicate Political Missions that were not publicized. The safest way to prevent anything from getting out into the open was to seal up what he left behind that. Now there is much anticipation about what his legacy harbors. The original documents askand in hannover and are then sent to minster potsdam and berlin for processing. Sitting in front of a huge an excel spreadsheet is how dogs event. Hes responsible for the publication of lightness his legacy by the bell in bundaberg academy of sciences he and two colleagues battle their way through the scientific and technical papers. Some fourteen thousand scans for publication in twelve volumes that takes time howard sieberg has been staring at the same sheet for a day now he doesnt know how long lived its worked on it but he may need an entire week to grasp it doesnt that frustrate him i know because each page looks different on every page theres the sense of the moment that took place more than three hundred years ago we feel like its wrestling with an object or subject moving him to the point that he covered both sides of a sheet top to bottom at the scans can only be given a land with a special Computer Program that depicts formulas and mathematical symbols this is what a finished page looks like his legacy doesnt just reveal his many interests it also tells us a lot about who he was as a person like its his handwriting was truly appalling often he wrote in french and latin at the same time. Or course. Is up when its down live news didnt just capture his thoughts he also annotated them dismissed some crossed things out and added new ideas. Even when there was hardly any room left on the sheet he still scrawled comments and drew lines to indicate what they referred to. Let these sheets reveal his train of thought both when he was correct and when he was wrong blackness kept both even papers where almost everythings crossed out we have the opportunity to reconstruct how he came to his conclusions. Its particularly difficult to create a chronology. Its ready dated his works. Only occasional watermarks provide some insight in sixteen seventy three during his time in paris live its right on paper like this. But he scribbled on everything you found. An envelope addressed to him. Its. It says hanover. I know there in french. He used every piece of scrap paper. It wasnt for lack of money so what was it. And he suffered from a certain response an eighty year old thought he was overwhelmed by a flood of thoughts in the morning. Just hours after getting up he had more thoughts in his had to make than he was able to write down in the morning or even throughout the day cited as a result he was very spontaneous with capturing those thoughts he took whatever was at hand as if things are dying out the numbers at a hunter not minutes immortalised a detail from his everyday life on this page noting down his Shopping List between his musings on friction. Two chickens cut follow ups and three measures of wine i think. Hes written down some figures to. Theyre more likely prices than quantities and these stains are probably food and drink stains. Essence we dont know what else they could be after he wrote while eating a true workaholic. Fifty nine volumes of his writings have been published since nineteen twenty three the endeavor will only be completed when the hundred thirteen volume is published in twenty fifty five. Its already possible to view many of the scanned documents online. You know he was really at home in higher math lightness believed he could solve every problem with the help of math he quickly reached his limits because the big problems of human kind cant be solved with math because life isnt made up of zeros and ones its not black and white and so forth of eyes. But how else are we supposed to solve conflicts then we need lateral thinkers polymaths or at least networks of top notch scientists to save the world by meet the president to life society who has a busy schedule. Thank you for taking the time to see me were meeting at the airport where are you going to Frankfurt University the Higher Education council is meeting today. Yes what would it be possible to be a polymath today or do we now know too much how do you do it in the Light Society thats come into your life its comanche after the likeness society covers all fields of learning from the humanities to the social sciences and the Natural Sciences as well as the Life Sciences and Engineering Sciences the approach is very interdisciplinary it works wonderfully it is not the key to the future working in a more into disciplinary and cooperative manner might say so. Because the complex problems were dealing with require us when scientists from such different disciplines come together do they really get on the music. You know like mit society is a community of ninety excellent soloists whove decided they want to play in the orchestra big pieces that deal with Climate Change for example to do that you have to play but you also have to listen. To what others play what i might play. How do we get to good results and im singing a good and its a very nice image an orchestra of science the life society ive had the privilege of speaking with the president or rather the conductor thank you for your time. This is a science can be a lot of fun weve learned that from life its on our way through our everyday lives we come across his work and ideas all over the place and weve learned Something Else you can be one of the most important scholars of humankind without ever having written a book.
