For hundreds of millions of Sufi followers worldwide, music is at the heart of their tradition and a way of getting closer to God.

Dalrymple's film traces the shared roots of Christianity and Islam in the Middle East and discovers Sufism to be a peaceful, tolerant and pluralistic bastion against fundamentalism.

今日生活在线影像俯拾即是，新加坡艺术家何子彦的作品《东南亚关键辞典》为一个通过算法实时生成的影像作品。艺术家根据自身对于东南亚这一地域产生出的26个概念，以不同角色、概念及类型之叙述及许多在线影像剪辑构成。在每次的展出播放中，影像会不断地被重新剪辑并实时生成。在艺术家的说法中，这令他感到影像海洋中某种不断自我革新的部分。此件影像作品亦可以在线观看于（https://cdosea.org）。 　　所谓东南亚，北临东喜马拉雅山脉，随地势断裂岛屿冒现，向南一直伸展，止于苏门答腊和爪哇的广阔环形岛群。由众多岛屿群组成的区域从未由单一的语言、政体、传统或宗教的力量所主宰。《东南亚关键词典》始于一个简单问题：「是什么构成这地区的统一？」作品邀请东南亚或研究东南亚的知识分子和艺术家参与，探讨一系列的主题；计划不单跨越国家的边界，也游走于不同学科的界线。集体共振谱奏出的东南亚之歌，体现的不是理性，而是共鸣。

普通美国人心中全世界的穆斯林都一个样子﹐他们念【古兰经】﹐手里端着自动步枪﹐女人蒙着头﹐男人留大鬍鬚。但是这部影片告诉观眾﹐世界上的医院体制是穆斯林创造的﹐他们也是最早掌握了切割钻石的技术﹐古希腊的哲学着作是被阿拉伯人挽救出来然后再传授给欧洲人﹐他们把印刷术在数百年后才教会欧洲人。 　　当古代住在欧洲北方森林里的日尔曼人穿着生皮夹克﹑经常不洗脸﹑吃生肉喝麵糊糊的时候﹐穆斯林世界已经造起了金碧辉煌的王宫和清真寺﹐那里的人每天洗澡﹐穿绸缎﹐洒香水﹐坐在厚厚的地毯上享受美味佳肴﹐谈论天文地理﹑希腊哲学。 　　这是美国第一部伊斯兰文化的文献片﹐描述从1400年前开始的第一个千年的文化发展和科学进步﹐具体的年代是从570年先知穆罕默德传播伊斯兰到1566年奥斯曼帝国苏莱曼大帝。在伊斯兰兴起之后﹐阿拉伯人建立了强大的帝国﹐注重发展经济﹑文化﹑贸易和科技。穆斯林发明了用阿拉伯数字的数学原理﹐在科学﹑医学﹑光学﹑天文学﹑哲学﹑法学领域中遥遥领先全世界一千多年。 　　Amazon.com 　　Islam: Empire of Faith is the epic PBS documentary that charts the history of Islam from its beginnings in Mecca and Medina in the seventh century to the glory of the Ottoman Empire 1,000 years later. 　　The demonization of Islam by the West has a long history, stretching back to the First Crusade at the end of the 11th century. This documentary redresses the balance by showing the riches of Islamic culture and the vital role played by Islam in preserving and building upon ancient wisdom from East and West at a time when most of Europe was stumbling through the Dark Ages. Muslim physicians, mathematicians, and astronomers stretched the boundaries of human knowledge, and Muslim architects created some of the most beautiful buildings in the world. 　　Islam also offers fascinating insights into key personalities, from Muhammad himself--a simple merchant whose vision of a single deity forged warring tribes into a nation--to great conquerors such as Mehmed and Suleyman, who presided over an empire that stretched from Spain to India. The faith itself is clearly explained, and interviews with historians and religious scholars bring home both its simplicity and the way that it survived huge cultural changes (like the Mongol invasions of the 13th century) to emerge stronger than ever. Islam has often been misunderstood in the West, but this splendid documentary helps to set the record straight. --Simon Leake

物理学家Jim Al-Khalili游历叙利亚、伊朗、突尼斯、西班牙等国，向您展示8世纪-14世纪伊斯兰世界的巨大科学进步。共3集。 　　Information 　　Episode 1: The Language of Science. 　　Physicist Jim Al-Khalili travels through Syria, Iran, Tunisia and Spain to tell the story of the great leap in scientific knowledge that took place in the Islamic world between the 8th and 14th centuries. Its legacy is tangible, with terms like algebra, algorithm and alkali being Arabic in origin and at the very heart of modern science.

He travels to Syria to discover how, a thousand years ago, the astronomer and mathematician Al-Biruni estimated the size of the earth to within a few hundred miles of the correct figure. In Cairo, he tells the story of the physicist Ibn al-Haytham, who helped establish the science of optics. 　　Episode 3: The Power of Doubt. 　　Physicist Jim Al-Khalili concludes his investigation into the relationship between science and Islam. He shows how the scientific revolution that took place in 16th and 17th century Europe had its roots in the world of medieval Islam. He travels across Iran, Syria and Egypt to discover the astronomical advances made by Islamic scholars through their obsession with accurate measurement. He then visits Italy to see how those ideas permeated into the West and helped shape the works of Copernicus.
