Regional Grower Perspectives on Diversified Farming Systems
Regional Grower Perspectives on Diversified Farming Systems: costs, benefits and obstacles
The Berkeley Institute of the Environment (BIE) will host Roundtables on Diversified Farming Systems (DFS), a series of eight interactive sessions that brings together an interdisciplinary group of researchers, writers and practitioners focused on the efficacy and complexities of multi-functional agriculture. The goal is to engage in incisive dialogue on the current scientific understanding of the ecology, sociology and economics of diversified farming systems, and to identify knowledge gaps leading to development of research proposals and new scholarly work. By exploring the private and social costs and benefits of multi-functional DFS, the intent is to identify new pathways for redirecting agricultural development toward greater ecological and social sustainability. All interested members of the community are invited.
CS 61A The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs
Instructor Brian Harvey
Spring 2008
Introduction to programming and computer science. This course exposes students to techniques of abstraction at several levels: (a) within a programming language, using higher-order functions, manifest types, data-directed programming, and message-passing; (b) between programming languages, using functional and rule-based languages as examples. It also relates these techniques to the practical problems of implementation of languages and algorithms on a von Neumann machine. There are several significant programming projects, programmed in a dialect of the LISP language.
Choreographer Mark Morris is the 2013 Music Director for Ojai Music Festival (June 6-9) and Ojai North! (June 12-15). Morris talks about curating the Festival and his favorite musicians including Lou Harrison, John Luther Adams, and Henry Cowell whose works will be performed in June. The world premiere of new choreography to Igor Stravinsky's Rite of Spring will open Ojai North! on the campus of UC Berkeley. Set to The Bad Plus's rescoring of the explosive masterpiece for piano, bass and drums, Rite of Spring will be performed by the jazz trio and the Mark Morris Dance Group (MMDG). Matias Tarnopolsky, Director of Cal Performances, the producer of Ojai North!, interviews Morris.
