At the same time, there is a conference on Fantasy and Reality: Representations of the Past, Present and Future with a rich selection of lectures and events, the conference website: http://lib.haifa.ac.il/fantasy
It is worth adding that as part of the conference, the show 'Science on the Edge' will also be staged, during which young researchers from Weizmann, Tel Aviv University and the Technion talk about scientific advances and issues in a fascinating and entertaining way.
warmly recommended!
Full disclosure - I am one of the lecturers. But still highly recommended!
