The Computer in the Sky(1PM - 2:30PM) Library
Presented by the UCLA Library and the Jacob Marschak Interdisciplinary Colloquium on Mathematics in the Behavioral Sciences Speaker: Tim Roughgarden, Professor of Computer Science at Columbia University Turing-complete blockchain protocols such as Ethereum approximate the idealized abstraction of a shared "computer in the sky" that is open access (anyone can install software or interact with already-installed software), runs in plain view, and, in effect, has no owner or operator. This technology can, among other things, enable stronger notions of ownership of digital possessions than we have ever had before. Building the computer in the sky is hard (and scientifically fascinating), and requires the synthesis of multiple disciplines, both within computer science (distributed computing, cryptography, algorithmic game theory) and beyond (mechanism design, macroeconomics, finance, political science). This talk will survey some of Tim Roughgarden’s work in the area and the practical impact it has had. Location: Charles E.

Lecture by Ida Altman. Ida is the author, co-author, or editor of numerous books and articles on early modern Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and the Atlantic world. Her most recent book is Life and Society in the EarlySpanish Caribbean: The Greater Antilles, 1493–1550. As Iberians in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries expanded into the Atlantic world they created conditions for a convergence of peoples and cultures in the Caribbean that would transform them and the region as a whole. The dimensions and complexities of that process can be identified at nearly all levels. Over time, as other European nations became active in the Caribbean, contraband or extra-legal trade and efforts to stake out territorial claims generated other forms of convergence. Some Europeans followed many of the precedents that the Spanish had introduced in the Caribbean, but in contrast to the controversy that arose over Spanish treatment of Indigenous peoples, the European nations that participated in the slave trade and used the labor of enslaved Africans in their colonies did so for decades without facing any serious protest or challenge. Perhaps the most notable point of convergence in the Caribbean in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries was Europeans’ across-the-board commitment to the use of coerced labor in their overseas territories, whether they depended on encomienda labor, indentured servants, or enslaved workers.

After years of use and misuse, the technological materials we rely on to communicate become obsolete and are thrown away to rot. This program imagines the post-tech era in which these discarded materials take their own course, at times seeking revenge against their creators. Toxic and deadly mining of coltan used to power lithium batteries sets the scene in Neptune Frost. Core Dump — Dakar tracks the effects on humans scavenging and melting minerals for resale, and in A.I. Mama, recycled scraps of tech are assembled to revive forgotten dreams. These narratives surrounding postconsumer tech products shine a light on human efforts to create, control and destroy methods of communication. Notes by Nicole Ucedo Location: Billy Wilder Theater
