An all-day symposium - December 3, 1999, 9:30 - 6:00 p.m. Taipei Theater Auditorium, New York, NY, (Lower level of the McGraw-Hill Building 1221 Avenue of the Americas - btw 48/49th Streets - 212 373-1854).

Despite the auspicious change that the new millennium will soon mark on the pages of our calendars, each of us daily observes the enigmatic nature of time. Time flies, expands, contracts, escapes and alludes us, depending upon our vantagepoint at any given moment. Without even realizing it perhaps, some of those same commonplace words and phrases that we use to describe time are also used by scientists to define the concepts of Einsteins theory of relativity and quantum physics.

Mathematician/physicist Brian Greene, author of the best-seller, The Elegant Universe, and our morning keynote, will talk about some of the essential insights on time from relativity and quantum mechanics on a non-technical level. His digital media presentation is reputed to knock the socks off his students at Columbia University bring a highly complex subject into visible form. Equally inspiring will be the scope, depth, and passion that artist, Agnes Denes' brings to her creation of various types of time-capsules from as early as the 1960's to her recent global environmental works that will be protected for the next 100 years. From the ancient wisdom of The I Ching; to recent sociological observations; future predictions by the noted science fiction novelist, Greg Benford; and a proposal for the adoption of Universal/ Internet Time by Swatch Group (the Swiss watch-makers), this investigation promises to be a memorable journey into the future of time.

FUTURE TIME, is co-produced by Art & Science Collaborations, Inc. (ASCI), and the Chinese Information and Culture Center and Taipei Gallery, New York. It is featured in conjunction with the gallery's opening of their TIME MIGRATION exhibition from Dec. 3 - Jan.21, 2000.
