Science, Serendipity and the Search for Truth: Point of View

Science, Serendipity and the Search for Truth puts science on stage in an informal series of conversations and performances alongside music, theater, journalism, religion, film, dance and other disciplines to see what serendipitous connections might bubble up. For the second Point of View program, relativist Don Marolf of UCSB will tell us what Einstein's relativity REALLY means to the physicists who study our world. Poet, author and LMU professor Michael Datcher, will talk about the role of the writer as a witness and also his newly launched journal of literary nonfiction, The Truth about the Fact. L.A.-based choreographer Rosanna Gamson will show and tell us about her work, "Grand, Hope, Flower," which pretends to be a lecture on quantum electrodynamics, but is actually about L.A.
