The Jazz of Physics
FRIDAY, APRIL 14 at 7:00 pm ET
Stephon Alexander, Brown University
Take a musical journey of the mind and the cosmos with scientist and musician Stephon Alexander. A professor of physics at Brown University, Alexander began his journey to science in high school, where a teacher introduced him to the magic of jazz, fostering a connection between John Coltrane and Albert Einstein.
In his April 14 lecture, Alexander will demonstrate how the search for answers to deep cosmological puzzles has parallels to jazz improvisation. He will also explore new ways that music, particularly jazz, mirrors concepts in modern physics such as quantum mechanics, general relativity, and the early universe.
Don't miss out! Free tickets to attend this event in person will become available on Monday, April 3 at 9 am ET.
