I arrived in Cambridge, England today. Saturday and Sunday will see me at the Darwin in the Field conference at the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences. Today, I walked around, saw Darwin posters/ads everywhere, met up with Karen from The HMS Beagle Project (she was in town for the festival) and checked out a Darwin-art exhibit, as well as the very nice Young Darwin sculpture at Christ’s College. Long day, I am tired, and I have a little work to do on my paper in the morning (I present on Sunday).

Oh, Karen and I met Daniel Dennett! We were walking around King’s College and there he was! A picture with Dennett and many more to come, probably Sunday night or Monday night.

And on Monday I get the pleasure of exploring Cambridge and many Darwin exhibits with Richard Carter, the chap part responsible for Darwin being on UK currency.

One more thing: this evening I saw, and thoroughly enjoyed, the play Re:Design. Learn more about it here.
