Astronomy / Music New Symphony of Science!
Posted by Erik Henriksen on Mon, Nov 23, 2009 at 11:03 AM
If you haven't already experienced the weirdly hypnotic Symphony of Science videos—in which musician John Boswell cranks the Auto-Tune to spread the scientific preachings of mega-nerds Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking, Richard Feynman, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Bill Nye the Science Guy—then you should probably check out "A Glorious Dawn" (here), and "We Are All Connected" (below). Then watch Boswell's brand-spankin'-new latest, "Our Place in the Cosmos," featuring Sagan, Richard Dawkins, Michio Kaku and Robert Jastrow.
In summation, hooray for science.
