Sean Carroll, a renowned theoretical physicist and FQxI member spoke at XPANSE recently.

As we gear up to watch his talk, we’re revisiting one of Sean's earlier discussions with FQxI.

Check it out https://qspace.fqxi.org/videos/294/eminent-physicists-on-schrodingers-cat

Interesting podcast if you want to keep up-to-date with the #Physics world (of which I’m a long term novice!)

Most recent episode on the ‘Universal Connector’ with favorite #DavidDeutsch

"Could we build a machine that can carry out any task? The meta-framework "Constructor Theory" suggests we might be able to make such a universal constructor. David Deutsch discusses the implications of such a machine for physics, for the economy, and for humans. Deutsch also talks about problems in funding for fundamental physics”

“There is no friction-free path towards the abundance of convivial science. No well-oiled machine will arrive to pave the road for us. Convivial science is not the next big thing, but a lot of small things: slow and open, boring and punk, sustainable and federated, and more still!”

— @SylviaFysica, Towards convivial science

O, I just heard that my essay "Toward convivial science" won a prize in @fqxi's 2023 competition.
They asked: How could science be different?
You can read my answer here: https://qspace.fqxi.org/competitions/entry/2310 Submission had to be anonymous, but now the results are public.

Challenging the status quo is at the heart of what we do. Hear from Josh Deutsch as he shares his views on #FQxI. We are dedicated to exploring some of the most complex and thought-provoking topics in science, even if they are seen as "taboo".

Hosted by @miriamfrankel, science editor at @ConversationUK, and supported by #FQxI, the Foundational Questions Institute, come with us on a mind-blowing journey as we launch the Great Mysteries of Physics #podcast.

The fundamental nature of reality can be viewed as either continuous or discretized, and there are compelling arguments to support each perspective. Or both. Or neither.

Is reality digital or analog?

#Consciousness is a topic that has historically been avoided by physicists due to its subjective and personal nature. But #FQxI is not shying away from tricky issues, which begs the question; “Is there an equation for consciousness?”

Ideas of superposition are part of the fundamental principles of #QuantumMechanics. It describes the ability of a quantum system to be in more than one state at the same time. ⁠

At #FQxI, we're asking the big questions and seeking answers. Can you be in two places at once?⁠

The world is weirder than you ever imagined, and we’ve got the science to prove it. From tiny microbes to the vast expanses of space, there’s a whole #universe of weirdness waiting to be explored.

The concept of time has puzzled philosophers & scientists relentlessly. At #FQxI, we're asking the big questions and seeking answers.

Why do we all experience time the same way?

https://fqxi.org/achievements/

Taking #BigRisks is part of the journey to making even bigger discoveries. At #FQxI, we believe that the greatest advancements in science come from those who dare to challenge the status quo and think outside the box. #BigLeaps
