They shap e our thoughts and help us find meaning and beauty\, by bringing into bein g new ways of seeing and articulating experience. The point of departure f or this workshop is a few art-science explorations by artist and researche r Asmita Sarkar\, who has worked with sleep researchers at NCBS\, Bangalor e. The exploration of circadian\, diurnal\, and circannual rhythms helps c reate metaphors that connect the molecular to the cosmic levels\, illustra ting how various climate events influence human and non-human bodies. \n\ nWorkshop participants will create their own climate change metaphors. Thu s\, creating meaning out of different facets of a messy\, nebulous problem \, which apparently has no simple resolution.
