Overview

Join us on a multimedia journey across the cosmos with physicist and bestselling author Brian Greene.

Utilising immersive visuals and Greene’s iconic knack for making difficult concepts easy to understand, Greene will guide us through key moments in the development of the cosmos, from the formation of stars and black holes to the emergence of life and mind, and the all important human quest to find coherence and meaning.

All this within an evolving universe governed by mathematical laws-and all wrapped up in an entertaining, fascinating and accessible evening that will cast human existence in a cosmic light.

Explore the full World Science Festival program here.
