1001 Inventions

1001 Inventions is an award-winning international educational organisation dedicated to the popularization of the history of science and technology in Muslim civilization during the period known as the Islamic Golden Age. The organisation encompasses online[1] and traditional publishing,[2] films,[3] and both static and traveling exhibitions.[4][5][6][7] The 1001 Inventions organisation involves contributions from more than one hundred academics[8] and is led by its producer and director Ahmed Salim.[9][10]

1001 Inventions produces global educational programmes, award-winning exhibitions,[11][12] live shows, short films, books and educational resources that have engaged over 200 million people around the world[13][14][15][16] and has a global fanbase of more than 70 million.[17][18][19]

In the past four years 1001 Inventions exhibitions have received over 7 million visitors[20][21] with blockbuster successes in major cities[22][23][24][25] and venues around the world such as the Science Museum in London,[26] New York Hall of Science in New York City,[27] California Science Center in Los Angeles,[28] Malaysia's National Science Center[29] and Museum of Islamic Art, Doha.[30][31][32]

International Year of Light

The United Nations has declared 2015 as the International Year of Light and 1001 Inventions is a founding partner of the initiative.[100] In partnership with UNESCO, 1001 Inventions has launched an international campaign titled 1001 Inventions and the World of Ibn Al-Haytham which is a global educational campaign that includes a series of interactive exhibits, workshops and live shows about Ibn Al-Haytham's achievements in optics, mathematics and astronomy, and his importance in laying the foundations of the present day scientific experimental method.

The campaign is produced by the 1001 Inventions organisation, and was unveiled at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris on 19 January 2015.[101]

Ibn Al-Haytham will be the official mascot of the National Chinese Science Festival 2015, and the 1001 Inventions and the World of Ibn Al-Haytham exhibition will be an anchor attraction at the Beijing Exhibition Centre from 17 July 2015 to 2 August 2015. The Ibn Al-Haytham zone at the festival will include a giant fully functioning camera obscura, theatrical science performances and hands-on demonstrations as well as a 12-minute film titled 1001 Inventions and the World of Ibn Al-Haytham starring Omar Sharif.[84] This short, science education film was Sharif's final film role before he died on 10 July 2015.[102] Director, Ahmed Salim, confirmed that the film would be dedicated to the actor's legacy.[103] The film's soundtrack was composed by Sami Yusuf and the soundtrack album, released on 20 December 2015, also included a tribute track dedicated to Sharif.[104]

Support

The project has gathered considerable support and praise from politicians and leaders all over the world.

Charles, The Prince of Wales, has written the foreword for the latest edition of the 1001 Inventions book, published by National Geographic. In this foreword he said, "I am delighted to see the success of the initiative called 1001 Inventions, which presents and celebrates the many scientific, technological and humanitarian developments shared by the Islamic world and the West."[114]

Speaking at the opening of 1001 Inventions in Karlstad on 30 August 2013, Sweden's Prince Carl Philip said, "I hope as many people as possible will come to visit" the exhibition, which he described as "beautiful and instructive."[115]

Speaking at the opening of 1001 Inventions at the Science Museum in London in January 2010, the Chairman of the museum's board, Lord Waldegrave of North Hill called the exhibition "a wonderful teaching resource" and described it as "done with wonderful imagination and flair, as well as good scholarship."[116]

Exhibition reviews

The BBC's reviewer Nick Higham covered the exhibit in January 2010 and described the working Elephant Clock as "spectacular". The BBC used the terms "Muslim science" and "Islamic science" on their website when reporting about the exhibition. However, in an interview conducted by Higham, one of the academics behind the 1001 Inventions project objected to the reviewer's usage of the term "Islamic Science" because he believed "science has no religion and [belongs to] no particular culture".[117][118]

A 2010 review by the theoretical physicist and broadcaster Professor Jim Al-Khalili in The Guardian also noted the incorrect application of the term "Islamic Science" when referring to the exhibition, stating "There is no such thing as Islamic science – for science is the most universal of human activities."[119]

Similarly, Adam Deen, writing in 2013, praised the exhibition for "the multicultural make-up of 1001 Inventions, eloquently refuting the religiously homogenous and male-dominated stereotype of the Muslim world" through "the variety of peoples represented... includ[ing] many Arabs, as you'd expect, but you'll also find pioneering minds from Africa, India, Turkey, Europe, China and elsewhere – many of whom are Muslim, but many are obviously not, such as the Jewish physician and theologian Maimonides. And there's no shortage of female role models either, with celebrated women from the worlds of medicine, engineering, education and literature being given prominent placement."[120]

Writing in the Huffington Post in 2010, Sultan Sooud Al-Qassemi also mentioned the prominence of female characters and noted that the exhibition "was created with children in mind" as "the interactive displays are large and colourful, with cartoon-like characters guiding visitors as they explore".[121]

Writing in The Guardian in 2010, Robin Mckie called 1001 Inventions "a quite wonderful little exhibition, filled with surprises... [that] is easy on the eye but is still dense with information" and also described it as "spectacular".[122]

Edward Rothstein's review of the 1001 Inventions exhibition at the New York Hall of Science in December 2010, in The New York Times, described the show as having "serious problems", noting that "the promotional goal is evident in every display." He wrote that "some assertions go well beyond the evidence… And some claims are simply incorrect.".[123] In response to Rothstein's having written that the exhibition was inaccurate in some respects, the "Foundation for Science, Technology and Civilisation'" published a rebuttal, with academic citations, which criticized the music and culture critic for "erroneously imagining himself an expert."[124]

Clyde Haberman, Rothstein's fellow journalist at The New York Times, also reviewed the exhibition, writing that "the exhibition is less overtly about politics than about science", noting the show's "electronic razzmatazz aimed at a young audience" and comparing the exhibition's introductory film to the Harry Potter movies.[125]

Academic overview

1001 Inventions is overseen by the Foundation for Science, Technology and Civilisation, an international network of academics.[126] Prior to the launch of the 1001 Inventions exhibition at the Science Museum in London, the content of the exhibition was reviewed and approved by the host venue.[127][128] As per academic standards, 1001 Inventions has provided a full list of citations to all historical statements made within their books and exhibitions, with all academic references also made available online.[129]

In a 2012 article in the Skeptical Inquirer, Taner Edis and historian of Science Sonja Brentjes wrote that "[the exhibition] promotes serious misunderstandings of science and history."[130]
