51	Our PETTT team works hard
52	University of Washington The Center for Digital Arts and Experimental Media (DXARTS) Establishing a program of international preeminence that brings together artists, engineers, scientists, designers, and theorists working with digital technologies to re-define art, music, theater, film, and architecture. Dissolving the boundaries between theses traditional disciplines, the Center will make possible the creation of digitally realized images, sounds, performances, and installations that were previously unimaginable.
53	DXARTS: Education, Research, Outreach Educate artists, scientists, engineers, and design professionals in experimental art practices and aesthetics Create an array of state-of-the-art experimental laboratories and studios in a unified space suitable for advanced arts technology research and application where students and faculty can work and interact Create opportunities for audiences within the UW and in the regional community to experience the digital arts through new exhibitions, concerts, installations, public seminars, and conferences Establish a “glass-box” program where leading figures in the arts, science, and industry will be invited as guests to work on innovative projects in conjunction with a wide range of UW departments and students Establish innovative senior capstone and new foundations courses that focus and unify a broad range of undergraduate backgrounds within the digital domain Build upon and amplify existing partnerships between the arts and the digital technology industry through mutual research interests, student internships, and other joint activities

59	Program on Climate Change
60	The Program on Climate Change…
61	Program on Climate Change—Research Priorities Understand the fates of the greenhouse gases, and the feedbacks between the biosphere, climate and greenhouse gases. Identify the mechanisms that maintain a climate system, and those that cause large fluctuations in climate. Understand the sensitivity of the climate system, especially to global and regional anthropogenic forcing. Use the improved understanding of the mechanisms and sensitivities of the climate system to improve short-term climate prediction.
