SUMMARY:Dinosaurs at Dusk
DESCRIPTION:You’ll travel back in time to meet the pterosaurs and the ancestors of modern-day birds: the feathered dinosaurs. Lucy and her father navigate from continent to continent\, looking for clues about the origins of flight. When time runs out they experience first-hand the cataclysmic “last day” of the dinosaurs.

SUMMARY:Meditations on Perihelion
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to a live performance of original electronic music and immersive visuals on the planetarium’s dome. \nThe “Meditations” are a personal exploration of the human experience of the passage of time during the various cycles that the Earth moves through over time. The performance invites contemplation of the wonder and enormity of the cosmos and attempts to highlight the connections between art and science. \nFor some in the audience it can be a meditation\, for others an active listening and perceptual experience. This event invites listeners to sink and settle into an evolving musical and visual journey. \nThe music\, conceived and performed by Tom Luther\, is inspired and informed by the changes in the Earth’s orbit from a single year to the large scale 100\,000 year cycle. While falling into the general category of “Ambient” or “Space” music\, Luther has drawn on his experience as an improviser\, composer\, and pianist to extend at the conventions of the genre. \nThis year’s program is focused on the idea of the slow change of polar orientation caused by the tilt of the earth and the effect on its orbit. Luther explores offset patterns of rhythm and shifting melodies to reflect the slow change of direction.
