“A number of years ago, in a public debate on the subject [of the true significance of mathematical investigation], I said that I could imagine an alien encounter during which, in response to learning of our scientific theories, the aliens remark, “Oh, math. Yeah, we tried that for a while. At first it seemed promising, but ultimately it was a dead end. Here, let us show you how it really works.” . . . I don’t know how the aliens would actually finish the sentence, and with a broad enough definition of mathematics (e.g., logical deductions following from a set of assumptions), I’m not even sure what kind of answers wouldn’t amount to math.”

The Elegant Universe was the first book I read on Superstring Theory. It served as a gateway to an ever-expanding need to absorb as much knowledge as possible about the how and why of matter, time and emptiness. What truly amazes and inspires me about Superstring Theory is the space it occupies, nestled between science, spirituality and art. As an artist, I perceive this field of study to be one of the greatest collaborative art pieces of all time, with an restless potential practicality, waiting eagerly to be fully realized.

What are you breezing past in your life?
A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that 1,100 people went through the station, most of them on their way to…
If only the world and people would slow down; people don’t realize what they are missing. So don’t miss out on seeing Joshua Bell perform at the Granada Wed, Feb 20th at 8pm!!
