SUMMARY:PRE-FESTIVAL EVENT: Badger Talk -  Bringing Dino-Birds to Life
DESCRIPTION:Uwe Bergmann’s Badger Talk – Bringing Dino-Birds to Life \nBirds have captured every corner of our planet. Long before modern birds appeared\, some dinosaurs started to show feathers rather than scales. With the help of powerful X-rays\, we are trying to disentangle the chemical remains in some of the most iconic dino-bird fossils\, including the famous Archaeopteryx\, and what we can learn about the life of these amazing creatures.

SUMMARY:The Insect Epiphany: How Our Six-Legged Allies Shape Human Culture
DESCRIPTION:Barrett Klein\, University of Wisconsin – La Crosse professor and author of The Insect Epiphany\, will share his knowledge and passion with us at this event. \nInsects surround us. They fuel life on Earth through their roles as pollinators\, predators\, and prey\, but rarely do we consider the outsized influence they have had on our culture and civilization. Their anatomy and habits inform how we live\, work\, create art\, and innovate —from ancient etchings to avant-garde art\, from bug-based meals to haute couture—The Insect Epiphany proves that our world would look very different without insects\, not just because they are crucial to our ecosystems\, but because they have shaped and inspired so many aspects of what makes us human.
