Art Exhibit

Art Inflection brings together a series of works by Amanda Rybicki and Michael Rybicki, inspired by intersections of subjective realities, memory, and distorted experience. Interactive, analog sculptures explore how inputs derive changes, repetitive loops, or erosion. Mechanical systems with visible components driven by the viewer directly cause degradation, separation, or exhaust supply. Objects and jewelry explore elements of distortion. Subtle changes to form, pattern and texture invoke adaptations of autobiographical memory and shared reality, questioning ideas of authenticity and revision.

Big Questions: STEM & Human Values Talk

Lecture/Symposium In a world dominated by science and technology, the relevance of voices from the humanities is often forgotten–or worse, ignored. Yet the unprecedented changes fomented by science and technology–anthropogenic climate change, the rise of AI, advances in personalized medicine–have implications for society and indeed the very meaning of what it is to be human, topics of central concern to the humanities, especially philosophy and religious studies. This talk series, open to students, faculty, and the general public, brings philosophers and scholars of religion to MiraCosta to discuss how their expertise intersects with and can contribute to the big questions posed by science and technology.
