SUMMARY:Can Yogis Levitate?
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss four conceptions of Entropy in a couple of BrainFood sessions\, drawing upon the historical context from the book Warmth Disperses and Time Passes – The History of Heat by Hans Christian von Baeyer\, especially from chapters 7\,13 and 18. Examples will be provided that can feed into detailed discussions of how the Second Law helps us understand Nature. In the first session\, combining Clausius and Boltzmann\, we will examine the theoretical basis for levitation. All are welcome\, although we will pitch the discussion at a level suitable for students with some interest in Thermodynamics. \nCome find out more with USP Director A/P Kang Hway Chuan! \nThis event is part of the BrainFood reading initiative that students can explore in the USP Reading Room.

SUMMARY:Scholars Cinema: “Exit Through the Gift Shop” by Banksy
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever questioned the value of art? Ever wondered what made art “good” or “bad”? Ever looked at a Picasso so-called “painting” and thought\, “Man\, I could’ve done that when I was 5” Labelled “the world’s first street art disaster movie”\, Exit Through the Gift Shop is an extraordinary documentary following Banksy\, a notorious graffiti artist who has tagged everything from Disneyland to Israel’s West Bank barrier. And like Banksy’s politically-charged vandalism\, the documentary asks questions that reach far and wide – albeit this time\, he targets the world of the artist and satirically deconstructs it with clarity and – most importantly! – hilarity.

SUMMARY:Conversations@8: “The Apprenticeship Collective (TAC)”
DESCRIPTION:Conversations@8 is a series of informal gatherings of USP alumni and students. In this session\, USP alumni\, Marvin Kang and Low Yee Loong will share on their initiatives at The Apprenticeship Collective (TAC). TAC volunteers work with schools in Singapore to create opportunities that allow students to learn the basics of particular professions from volunteer mentors (with day jobs!) who are currently working in the field. They help students explore and investigate different futures\, different paths – to discover and define their purpose\, passions and interests. Maybe you ‘d like to volunteer as a mentor or as a coordinator? Or perhaps you’d like to chat and see if there’s anything you’d like to do. Join us for the evening and find out where you can fit in!
