From the Harmony of the Spheres to string theory: 2,500 years of analogies between music and physics

From Pythagoras, to Kepler and Galileo, to Einstein and string theory. From monophonic music to Baroque music to atonality and spectralism. Changing world views seem to go hand in hand with analogous shifts in the composition of music and in thinking about the cosmos. Arne Deforce has been fascinated by the cosmos for years. In Season's Thinker Thomas Hertog, he has found an illustrious sparring partner to join him on a trip through history in word, image and sound.
