The Fall 2024 Boston University School of Theology Lowell Lecture, in collaboration with Boston University Faculty of Computing & Data Sciences, will present the North American Premiere of Simulating Religious Violence, a groundbreaking documentary directed by Jenn Lindsay (GRS'18), owner of So Fare Films.
This powerful film takes viewers behind the scenes of a three-year project linking computer scientists and religion scholars, including some from Boston University, as they harness the power of computer simulation and modeling to explore solutions for global conflicts rooted in religious violence.
