Elective Affinities - "Myth, Music & Philosophy "
Thursday, 11th October 2012
Prof. Rick Benitez, Department of Philosophy and Classics & Ancient History, University of Sydney

Music has often been associated with myth and mythmaking. But what is the relation of myth to philosophy? Aristotle said that "philosophy begins in wonder " and hence "even the myth-lover is, in a sense, a philosopher, since myths are composed of wonders ". Are myths, then, the beginning of philosophy

Sydney Ideas - Physics on the Fringe
Thursday, 6th September 2012
Acclaimed science writer Margaret Wertheim explores "outsider physicists ", those convinced that they have found true alternative theories of the universe.

How does this bizarre world of fringe physics challenges our conception of what science is, how it works, and who it is for?

In July this year the world went "Higgs mad " when scientists at CERN announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, a particle that plays a crucial role in the Standard Model of physics. If the Higgs hadn 't been found it was beginning to look as if major parts of theoretical physics would have to be rethought. Even now its existence has to be confirmed. Yet with or without the Higgs, a growing number of dissident theorists believe the very foundations of physics are in need of renovation. Since CERN's announcement 'outsider physicists ' have gathered at three international conferences to discuss alternative theories of reality. Many of these outsiders have little or no scientific training yet all are driven by a conviction that they can unlock the true secrets of the universe. Their efforts constitute a scientific parallel to 'outsider art ' and a radically other conception of how science might be conducted. In this talk, acclaimed science writer Margaret Wertheim, author of the new book "Physics on the Fringe ", will discuss 'outsider physics ' as a social and cultural phenomenon. What are the similarities between outsider science and outsider art? What are the differences? And why does the subject matter in the context of science today?

THE ALFRED HOOK LECTURE SERIES - "LAB COATS, SOUND AQUARELLES AND WAR LOOT: THE HISTORY OF EARLY ELECTRONIC MUSIC AND ITS LINKS TO TODAY'S ELECTRONIC MUSIC SCENES " - LIEVEN BERTELS
Friday, 31st August 2012
Recital Hall East, Sydney Conservatorium of Music, Cnr Bridge & Macquarie Street, Sydney NSW 2000
After a few attempts by individuals to create 'electronic' instruments such as the Trautonium and the Theremin in the early 20th century, a more systematic approach to the creation of a new electronic sound world took off after the Second World War, on three remarkably different tangents, and with very distinct influences on the electronic music of today.
