Liz Lerman Dance Exchange debuting On the Matter of Origins–a major dance piece inspired by Lerman’s work with scientists at CERN in Switzerland, home of the Large Hadron Collider: http://www.danceexchange.org/performance/origins.html#aa

From a new artist/scientist collaboration at the University of Chicago, some really interesting little videos that might inspire: One scientist involved writes, “An experiment that simulates the explosion of a star can create more than one billion data points. Artistic representation is a powerful tool that helps scientists make sense of mountains of data and furthers their experiments.” Recommended viewing:
