Do You Think Science ....
- Synopsis
- By asking a group of space physicists the unanswerable, performance artists Semiconductor reveal the hidden motivations driving scientists to the outer limits of human knowledge. In an attempt to find meaning within the question, they open a Pandora’s Box of limitations within science itself, revealing their own philosophical confines. Issues of faith, medicine and the laws of matter are raised to illustrate the infinitely complex universe we live in.
The following scientists at The Space Sciences Laboratory, UC Berkeley, California, USA contributed to this work: Stuart Bale, David Brain, John Bonnell, Nahide Craig, Janet Luhmann, Bryan Mendez, Forrest Mozer, Stephen Mende, Ilan Roth, Chris Snead, Charles Townes, Andrew Westphal - Language
