A Message From Lawrence:
Last November, The Origins Project Foundation hosted two nights of public events at the lovely Orpheum Theater in Phoenix. We have already released the video of the first event, a discussion between Richard Dawkins and me, and we are now happy to release the video of the second event.
This panel began with comprehensive presentations on their own areas of science by Nobel Laureates Barry Barish, John Mather, and Kip Thorne, and perhaps the most important cosmological theorist of our generation, Alan Guth. It was an evening full of data and depth about the foundational issues driving modern cosmology, and its future.
At the same time, it was a challenging evening, and after the initial presentations we broke for an intermission, followed by questions from the audience. Before the questions began, I tried to provide a short discussion putting each of the previous presentations in context, and unifying them together, and also chose a set of questions from the many submitted by the audience that might continue that process. For those of you who find yourself a bit overwhelmed with some of the initial presentations, I hope you will stay on for the later discussion, which I think was both accessible and very informative.
The Origins Project is continuing its plans for future public programs, and we will be moving away from our traditional home base of Phoenix for these. Tentative plans include partnering on an event in Birmingham UK Sept 25th, Vancouver Oct 13th, and in Orange County Oct 15th and San Diego Oct 17th. Stay tuned for further updates.
