A panel of experts will investigate his immense influence on our way of life, and speculate on the more obscure motivations behind his work and how they relate to ideas on transhumanism, cybersecurity, and gay rights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"bodyBlockHalfNotFull\">The symposium is the latest stage in ARTEk&#8217;s opera production SECRETLY. The opera focuses on the life of Alan Turing, and aims to find deeper insight into a deeply influential figure who left very little evidence regarding his beliefs, desires and intentions, in both science and spirituality.<br \/>\nWriter Georg Hobmeier will create the libretto based on the symposium discussions, so please join us with your thoughts and questions and become part of the creation process!<\/div>\n<h6><strong>Free Admission<\/strong><\/h6>\n<div>\n<h6><strong>Presenters:<\/strong><\/h6>\n<p>Bennie Mols<br \/>\nGeorg Hobmeier<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Mirjam Van Reisen<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Pieter van Engelen<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h6><strong>Schedule:<\/strong><\/h6>\n<div><span class=\"general\">1<\/span>9:00 <em>Introduction<\/em><br \/>\n19:10 <em>Keynote: Pieter van Engelen<\/em><br \/>\n19:30 <em>Round table discussion with: Bennie Mols, Mirjam van Reisen and Pieter van Engelen.\u00a0 <\/em><em>Moderator: Georg Hobmeier.<\/em><br \/>\n20:30 <em>Short break for drinks<br \/>\n<\/em><\/div>\n<div>20:45 <em>Q&amp;A<\/em><\/div>\n<div class=\"su-row\"><\/div><div class=\"su-column su-column-size-2-3\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-3\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-clearfix\">\n<p><em>Symposium<br \/>\n(in English)<br \/>\n<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>Date<br \/>\n<\/strong>15 Nov 2017<\/p>\n<p><strong>Time<br \/>\n<\/strong>19:00-22:00<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venue<br \/>\n<\/strong>Commissarissenzaal<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/hetnutshuis.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Het Nutshuis,<\/a> Den Haag<\/p>\n<p><strong>Module<br \/>\n<\/strong>Modern Body Laboratory<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weblinks<\/strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"general\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.speakersacademy.com\/nl\/spreker\/bennie-mols\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bennie Mols<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/goldextra.com\/de\/georg-hobmeier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Georg Hobmeier<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tilburguniversity.edu\/webwijs\/show\/m.vanreisen.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mirjam Van Reisen<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pietervanengelen.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pieter van Engelen<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.artekfoundation.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Artek Foundation<\/a><\/p>\n<div><div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:15px 0;border-width:3px;border-color:#d2f4f6\"><\/div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"su-youtube su-responsive-media-yes\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dlufiVu0imw?autohide=2&autoplay=0&controls=1&fs=1&loop=0&modestbranding=0&playlist=&rel=1&showinfo=1&theme=dark&wmode=\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div> <\/div>\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:15px 0;border-width:3px;border-color:#d2f4f6\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-image-314 size-thumbnail\"><div class=\"su-row\"><div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-4\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-clearfix\">\n<h5 style=\"text-align: right;\">BIOS<\/h5>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-949\" src=\"https:\/\/modernbodyfestival.org\/2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/MBL1_Bennie-Mols-TEDx_1920px-420x630.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/modernbodyfestival.org\/2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/MBL1_Bennie-Mols-TEDx_1920px-420x630.jpeg 420w, https:\/\/modernbodyfestival.org\/2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/MBL1_Bennie-Mols-TEDx_1920px-744x1116.jpeg 744w, https:\/\/modernbodyfestival.org\/2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/MBL1_Bennie-Mols-TEDx_1920px-1200x1800.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/modernbodyfestival.org\/2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/MBL1_Bennie-Mols-TEDx_1920px.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"su-column su-column-size-3-4\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-clearfix\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><strong>Bennie Mols<\/strong> (1969) is a freelance science journalist, author and speaker.
