Why AxS Podcast from ArtCenter: Dark Matter

Ready to go dark and get deep? In the third episode of the <a href= "https://www.artcenter.edu/connect/podcasts/why-axs-podcast.html">Why AxS</a> podcast—where brilliant scientific and artistic minds ponder the important whys—we explore the infinite possibilities of the origins and nature of our universe. Our guests couldn't be more disparate in their paths, yet conjoined in their pursuits. <a href= "https://www.artcenter.edu/connect/dot-magazine/articles/change-lab-56-lita-albuquerque.html"> Lita Albuquerque</a>, an internationally renowned visual artist and ArtCenter faculty member, is inspired by the natural world, on this planet and beyond. Her works are intimate and epic, earthly and ephemeral—a celebration of how we connect to our environment, below and above. Her large-scale installations—like Rock and Pigment, a series of rocks in the Mojave Desert in alignment to the stars overhead—connect human to celestial bodies, allowing us to feel what our minds can’t comprehend—that we’re a tiny speck suspended among billions of galaxies. <a href= "https://www.artcenter.edu/about/exhibitions/sky-stories.html">Dida Markovic</a>, an astrophysicist at Nasa's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, also studies the incomprehensible, specifically the dark sector of the universe. Dark energy and dark matter govern 95% of all the gravitational interactions in the universe–yet, present a mystery to science.

Why AxS Podcast from ArtCenter: Art and Science

Did you know the intersection of art + science has been rooted in the DNA of Los Angeles from the very beginning? In this episode of our Why AxS podcast, alum + former ArtCenter Exhibitions director Stephen Nowlin unravels the rich intertwining origins of the artists and experimenters who landed in L.A. and pioneered new industries, from aeronautics to film. As humans, we aspire to find common ground between the two district sides of our brain. That’s why science needs art to tell its narratives in a language that makes data illuminating, immersive, complex and even transcendent. We invite you to join us on this journey — and bring both sides of your brain.
