That the Buckeyes and the Fighting Irish, two of the sport's most storied teams, are squaring off in the title game is a TV executive's dream — and a fitting end to the first-ever 12-team playoff.

Bringing their recent debut to San Diego for two nights only, Seattle duo Jenny Peterson and Kaitlin McCarthy present a dance work of horror, humor, and friendship. Told through their distinctive aesthetic of the unhinged and uncanny, "DRIVE WOLVES MAD" tracks the aftermath of an inciting event and ambiguous line between victim and perpetrator. A musical score by Jenny Peterson riffs on predatory pop songs, altering and abstracting them as an act of reclamation. Peterson/McCarthy’s journey seeks to transcend archetypes authored by men, finding their way to a place of survival and remediation–a way to exist in a context of their own creation. Through the dance they move from a place of dissociation into states of empowerment–which sometimes looks like camaraderie, sometimes wild physical abandon, and sometimes a complete release of the societal obligation to be a palatable, consumable feminine entity. Featuring original costume design by Kaitlin McCarthy, this physical and vulnerable dance work culminates a decade of development in the duo’s most ambitious and risky performance to date!

Over the years, scientists and engineers have teamed up to tackle tough ocean research questions and find innovative solutions. This collaboration is especially evident in the 60-year legacy of the Hydraulics Lab (HLab) at Scripps now home to the Scripps Ocean Atmosphere Research Simulator (SOARS). SOARS is a unique installation that allows scientists to simulate varying ocean environments by controlling winds, waves, water chemistry, temperature, light and more. Join us as veteran HLab engineer Douglas Alden and SOARS Principal Investigator Grant Deane share how this groundbreaking technology reflects decades of collaboration between ocean researchers and engineers to better understand our changing oceans.
