The Enlightenment Cafe: New Atlantis - Multidisciplinary theatre exploring the technology behind satellites and science of measuring Climate Change

启蒙咖啡馆：新亚特兰蒂斯是一个国际组织，负责监测人类与水之间的动荡关系并提供解决方案。除了伦敦大学学院、Pennine Water Group、Ral Space和大英图书馆，LASTheater正在将自己品牌的多学科剧院带到伦敦的地下空间，观察科学和社会如何处理21世纪最紧迫的一些问题。该展览将有来自卫星技术、气象学、生物化学、船舶建筑和土木工程的工程师和科学家参加，为观众提供与专家就一系列主题进行互动的机会，包括气候变化、伦敦的水道和冲突。启迪咖啡馆：新亚特兰蒂斯将与学校宣传活动、关于每个科学家/工程师的一系列短片以及一个可以通过社交媒体和数字研究吸引观众的在线空间相结合，为科学家、工程师和艺术家们庆祝，将他们的作品带给新的和不同的受众。与我们之前的启迪咖啡馆项目一样，我们的目标是实现：1.整个项目：-创建一个令人兴奋的新的身临其境的互动剧场--开发跨STEM主题的创新的与水和气候变化有关的科学交流的新片段，可以在展览结束后供合作者重新使用。-为当地学校开发一个相关的外展项目--开发一个教师包，可从泰晤士报教育增刊网站下载，所有合作者针对关键阶段3/4。-制作节目每个STEM部分的一系列短片，以在节目结束后接触到更多观众。-鼓励所有年龄段的STEM领域对水和气候变化的兴奋，特别是在新接触科学传播的观众中--每部作品设定的目标是所有观众的50%。-通过将许多STEM领域聚集在这个创新的戏剧环境中，更好地了解气候变化，以及社会如何共同努力应对或预防气候变化。STFC的资助，以上所有内容，加上：-创建一个关于卫星技术和地球大气研究的节目部分。-与Ral Space和其他人合作进行这段科学交流，并在这一部分包括科学家和工程师。-与Ral Space的科学家和工程师合作，帮助他们的科学交流技能，以及如何接触到新的观众，特别是与艺术工作有关的观众。-将包括学校在内的新观众带到STFC资助的组织和项目的工作中。STFC资助了并将继续资助大量关于地球大气的研究，尤其是在试图理解气候变化方面。我们希望将这部重要而热门的作品带给通常不会与科学传播互动的观众。影响：我们的节目已经取得了一些影响，这些影响将与这个新项目相关：1.帮助科学家和工程师创造科学传播的片段，打开新的方法，并突出科学/戏剧合作的好处2。让观众对气候变化和与水相关的问题有一个全面的了解。通过将一些科学机构和领域结合起来，观众将获得科学和工程领域的横截面可能性，以及它们是如何相互促进的。通过向学校和家庭提供数字技术和真正的科学，由充满激情的专家提供，努力改变个人用水行为。利用剧院交流地球空间工程师、卫星技术和地球大气层的工作，雄心勃勃地培养观众对相关STEM科目的兴趣，特别是学生。

The Enlightenment Cafe: New Atlantis is an international organisation charged with monitoring and providing solutions to the tempestuous relationship between humanity and water.Alongside UCL, Pennine Water Group, RAL Space and the British Library, LAStheatre is bringing its own brand of multidisciplinary theatre to a subterranean space in London, looking at how science and society are dealing with some of the most pressing issues of the 21st Century. The show will involve engineers and scientists from satellite technology, meteorology, biochemistry, naval architecture and civil engineering providing the audience with an opportunity to interact with experts on a range of topics, including Climate Change, London's waterways and Conflict. Combined with schools outreach, a series of short films about each scientist/engineer and an online space that can engage audiences through social media and digital research, The Enlightenment Cafe: New Atlantis will celebrate scientists, engineers and artists alike, bringing their work to new and diverse audiences.As with our previous Enlightenment Cafe projects, we aim to achieve:1. The entire project:- Create an exciting new piece of immersive, interactive theatre- Develop innovative new pieces of science communication across STEM subjects relating to water and climate change, which can be re-used by collaborators after the show.- Develop an associated outreach project for local schools- Develop a teacher's pack, downloadable from Times Educational Supplement website, with all collaborators aimed at Key Stages 3/4. - Make a series of short films of each STEM section of the show to reach further audiences after the show. - Encourage excitement in STEM areas relating to water and climate change in all ages, particularly in audiences new to science communication - a target of 50% of all audiences is set for each production.- Create a greater understanding of climate change, and how societies can work together to prepare or prevent it, through bringing a number of STEM fields together in this innovative theatrical environment.2. The funding from STFC, all of the above, plus:- Create a section of the show about satellite technology and the study of Earth's atmosphere.- Collaborate with RAL Space and others for this piece of science communication and include scientists and engineers in this section of the show.- Work with scientists and engineers from RAL Space to assist their science communication skills, and how to reach new audiences, particularly in relation to working with the arts.- Bring new audiences, including schools, to the work of STFC funded organizations and projects.STFC has funded, and continues to fund a great amount of research into Earth's atmosphere, particularly in attempting to understand Climate Change. We want to being this important and topical work to an audience that would not normally interact with science communication.Impacts:Our shows have achieved a number of impacts, these would be relevant to this new project:1. Help scientists and engineers create pieces of science communication, opening new methods and highlighting the benefits of science/theatre collaborations2. Give the audience a big picture understanding of Climate Change and Water related issues. By combining a number of science institutions and fields the audience will be given a cross-section of possibilities in the science and engineering realm, and how they feed off each other.3. Endeavour to change behaviours around personal water usage, by reaching schools and families with the digital technology and genuine science, delivered by passionate experts.4. Using theatre to communicate the work of RAL Space engineers, satellite technology and Earth's atmosphere, with an ambition to develop audiences' interests in related STEM subjects, especially students.
