Please join MSRI on Wednesday, November 12, 5:30pm-7pm, for a free public event, "The John Cage Legacy: Chance in Music and Mathematics" in the Simons Auditorium. This 'happening' presents composer/performers from the Merce Cunningham Dance Company in a concert, followed by a discussion between the musicians and mathematician/statistician/magician, randomness expert Persi Diaconis of Stanford University and moderated by Bob Osserman, Special Projects Director at MSRI. Seating is limited. Free admission.
Parking: Please note that parking in the lot between MSRI and the Space Sciences Lab (SSL) is available free-of-charge after five p.m. The lot is reached from Centennial Drive by turning onto the "Gauss Way" access road that leads to MSRI / SSL. Disabled parking spaces are located at the entrance to MSRI's Chern Hall. Additional parking is available in the Institute's terraced hillside loop of parking spaces (upper two lots), which is accessed directly off Centennial Drive and requires walking up 95+ steps to the MSRI building.
