(*) In this film Andrea Stefani gathers interviews of four scientists (Claudio Tuniz from the Abdus Salam ICTP, the promoter of the Venice event
and the recent Trieste Darwin Exibition), Nevio Pugliese, Director of
Museo Nazionale dell'Antartide, and University of Trieste, Giovanni
Boschian, from the Dipartimento di Scienze Geologiche, University of
Pisa, and the Coordinator of the seminars of the Applied Physics
Scientific Section of the ICTP. These interviews have been edited
by Stefani and, in addition they have been richly
illustrated. The interviews were filmed by
Walter Stoch at Palazzo Zorzi, Venice on the 29 April 2009. The event
was organized by the UNESCO Office in Venice - UNESCO Regional Bureau
for Science and Culture in Europe (BRESCE). That Office focuses its
action in science and culture on Member States of South-East Europe as
a priority, and develops initiatives in favour of Central Europe and
the Mediterranean basin in close consultation with the other UNESCO
offices concerned.
(**) His first production: "Astrobiology: Exploring the Living Universe"
was in Italian with a segment in English. It was produced in the
context of the first Open Day of the Abdus Salam ICTP (September 2004).
It had the collaboration of Osservatorio Astronomico di Trieste (OAT),
National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA Stati Uniti
d'America), NASA Astrobiology Institute (NAI, Stati Uniti d'America),
SETI-Italia, Medicina, Bologna. The texts werewritten by the Scientific
Coordinator of the Physics of the Living State event within the 2004
