Exhibit & Workshops setup
Exhibit setup:
- ground floor - setting the picture & ambiance;
- 1st floor = detector pieces will need to be watched -> Claire will stay there, with a good book as there is no wifi :-)
- 2nd floor = workshops.
Workshops:
- Gravitational waves (from Martin, by email):
At the CERN LVC meeting in Maastricht last week I bought a simple interferometer kit, assembled by NIKHEF, for making a table-top interferometer. Combined with what Chiara is bringing from Torino that will be ideal I think for the workshop on Thursday.
For the Friday workshop I will focus on detecting signals, using the simple “school cafeteria” background noise activity we ran in Toronto (and have also now run in Scotland and Australia). How many handouts should I bring?...(I can also demonstrate some of the online resources available to allow students to analyse real LIGO and Virgo data).
- Event displays workshops:
Tom is updating his web based app links. Split team will contact him as soon as tablets are found.

Web site & resources for Students & Teachers
Web site changes:
- ALICE: added link to experiment on the top public page, & little page for specific infos in the protected organisation page. Contributions will be discussed after Split.
- Tbilisi project added, although more infos would be welcome
- Top banner will be replaced by the upper part of the poster developed by Michael
Documenting what we propose ( internal communication ):
Exhibit: the Toronto video & art@CMS activities are linked from the top page
Objects pictures: page is setup, but will need descriptions
Workshops: will collect pictures to give a flavour of what they are

Publicity @Split
Poster, bookmark & visual identity:
Michael's proposal is adopted and will be printed in 2x2 m . The top part will be chopped to create a bookmark with our web site url (simpler than QR code).
A simplified version of Claire's visitors card will be printed after Split only. Meanwhile, will go with a bunch of home made stickers (the logo + hand writing)
Flyer:
The 2016 version (attached to the agenda) needs to be reviewed to add other experiments pictures (keep the "discovery" image, replace CMS by the LHC tunnel (these are "LHC days") and the cosmos (Ligo & Muography).
The text needs to be revisited.... Claire to draft a proposal asap.
Social media:
Using #origin is not specific enough and the #cultural_collisions has tag used in Toronto has shown its limitations (all future events will not have this format anyway) --> We go for a specific ORIGIN account (twitter, facebook), where we can re-share posts relevant to our activities.

What next ?
South-East tour: program is completed and under control
- Cetinje (Montenegro) 10.10.2018 : exhibit will focus on art work produced since last year + talk(s) by Michael
- in parallel, Daniel and Ludwig drive to Tyrana with textile posters
- Sarajevo, October: Michael will setup the exhibit
- Imotski, 27.10.2018: concert of Chiara's orcherstra (from Thoiry), surrounded & framed by our posters.
Georgia:
- place holder page added on our web site for more informations (when they come)
- Claire developed the missing ATLAS TileCal poster and discussed a "bits & pieces" setup with ATLAS colleagues + a demo of ATLAS-Tracer (http://atlas-tracer.web.cern.ch/ )
- Michael will fly from Split to help with exhibit the setup, but events will be run by our Georgian colleagues.
Japan:
Our Muography friends from the University of Tokyo have an art-sci exhibits program which will include a few pieces from Michael. Given that ATLAS has a group in the University of Tokyo, the first step forward is to present ORIGIN to ATLAS colleagues - this will be done during the upcoming ATLAS week (oct 8-12).
Mexico:
Next round of discussions with LHCP organisers (ALICE group) will take place when we come back from Split.
