Stars are very hot, and molecules in space are very cold.  Eventually the stars will stop burning, and eventually everything in the Universe may reach the same temperature.  By keeping track of everything, we can calculate what that temperature is.  If we ignore the expansion of the Universe then that temperature turns out to be –270 C. Because the Universe is expanding, the eventual temperature may be even lower.  Philosophers have called this the “cold death” of the Universe, and the thought of it gets some people depressed.  And being cold doesn’t necessarily mean life will be uninteresting.  A detailed analysis made by physicist Freeman Dyson showed that even as the Universe gets very cold, life can continue, and the complexity of organized thoughts could get greater and greater.  That might take additional evolution, but we have hundreds of billions of years for that.

What would life be like in such a universe?  What would the descendants of humans look like?  Some people estimate that, because of the extreme cold, that in order to remain complex active creatures, they would have to be very large, perhaps as large as planets are now; maybe even bigger….from my Physics for Future Presidents Class

INVENTOS: Hip Hop Cubano

A must-see independent film on Cuban Hip Hop!
Thursday February 3rd, 2005 6:00-9:00 P.M.
MLK Student Union East Pauley Ballroom
FREE EVENT! Open to the Community

Includes film screening, Q&A with the young Bay Area director/U.C. Berkeley graduate Eli Jacobs-Fantauzzi, Photo Exhibit, Poetry Reading/Open Mic and Reception: Free Food & good music!

Eli Jacobs-Fantauzzi is a graduate of U.C. Berkeley and Tish School of the Arts at New York University. Eli’s first full-length film documentary, “Inventos: Hip Hop Cubano”, premiered in Havana, Cuba and has toured successfully across the U.S.

Cuban Hip Hop provides a unique insight into the realities and politics of contemporary Cuba. Experience this as Inventos follows some of the pioneers of this musical movement to their homes, the stage and as they travel abroad for the first time. Inventos embodies the true spirit of Hip Hop, which is to build something that is powerful and useful out of whatis seemingly impossible. Just as Hip Hop in the U.S. began as a form of creative self expression bringing awareness to oppressive social conditions, Cuban Hip Hop demonstrates the innovative and indestructible spirit born from a people suppressed by the U.S. embargo on Cuba. Inventos serves as a reminder of the political consciousness through which this music was created. Thirty years after its conception, and in spite of commercialization, Hip Hop culture continues to give voice to people who refuse to be silenced, ignored and cut off from the larger society. The film shows how both cultures reflect similar social struggles and if brought together, could transcend cultural barriers and build a collective community dedicated to spreading messages of truth and empowerment globally. Jacobs-Fantauzzi’s film rekindles an essence of the old school, which will inspire and reawaken the eyes of our present generations.

p.s. guess who is gonna be DJing pre- and post-movie.
