Can Quantum Physics help us solve the problems of race and discrimination in our society?

This provocation explores science culture and art through the medium of the Spoken Word.

Hear the contemplations of a recovering Astronomer; learn of the superposition of exitons of injustice in discriminatory design; the questionings of a quantum lab observer; and the hidden consciousness in man-made systems.

A compilation of the voices of

Get insight into the, fun, wonder full, explorative, walk in the rain kind of romantic - interdisciplinary class designed and taught by Nomi stone: Ways of Knowing Science and Poetry.

Learn of the various processes and experiences that science and Poets have in fusing the arts and sciences.

Join Nomi Stone and Ayen Kuol in discussing the relationships between Knowledge and Power, Science and culture.

Contemplate on why we as a society value what we value, and what is truth. Reflect on your poetic vision of the world around you.

Immerse yourself into the journey of a poet and scientist in discovering the joy of Poetry, Science and Poetic science. "What would it be like to be a field worker of the Natural World and the sciences?" 

Nomi Stone, Anthropologist, Poet, designer, and teacher of the undergraduate course, Ways of Knowing: Science and Poetry, challenges the beliefs of a compartmentalized and labeled world.

Get entranced by the digital soundscape created by an entanglement of the sounds of elements, cultures, and data from carbon Nanotube Scanning Electron Images.

Produced by Ian Clothier, this soundscape features the sounds:

-A traditional New Zealand Putorino tane played by Darren Robert Terama Ward

-Fire By Dynamicell

-Carbon Nanotube SEM

-Haley's comet

-Comet Swan

-Meteor showers.

This piece is created as an artistic response to the collaborative study of carbon Nanotube entanglement. Listen to Ian Clothier explain his process of how to entangle carbon.

The very notion of a collaboration tends to get sidelined. Rarely are lessons given on 'how to collaborate'. Yet Collaborations, especially the interdisciplinary kind, remain one of the most challenging ways of working. Get insight into the collaborative process of an interdisciplinary study of Carbon Nanotubes Entanglement- with Ayen Kuol as the artist, Blake Bathman the Poet and Josef Velten the scientist.

Dive into a 3 part poetic landscape that both investigates and celebrates the growth and entanglement of carbon nanotubes. A result of the collaboration between Artist, Poets and scientist.

Poems featured are :

'I remember'- By Blake Bathman, featuring video installation by Kylee Hong

'Entangled Dance'- By Ayen Kuol

C is for Carbon - by Ayen Kuol

The very notion of a collaboration tends to set sidelined. Rarely are lessons given on 'how to collaborate'.

Join Ayen Kuol and Josef Velten as they reflect on examples in human history, and ponder the question, “Is Culture a Technology?” Can culture be designed?

This podcast is intended to incite deeper thinking on the subject.

Does modern Science have room to acknowledge and incorporate other disciplines and cultures in its progression and its methods?

Join Josef Velten and Ayen Kuol as they discuss the concept of using Art as a method of scientific research.

Are we as scientists understanding the bigger picture of our roles as scientist in our modern world? Are we aware of the full spectrum of our power and implications our work has on the world?

Join Josef Velten and Ayen Deng as they discuss their scientific experiences.
