The Joy of Why
How Did Geometry Create Modern Physics?

The Joy of Why

Geometry is one of the oldest disciplines in human history, yet the worlds it can describe extend far beyond its original use. What began thousands of years ago as a way to measure land and build pyramids was given rigor by Euclid in ancient Greece, became applied to curves and surfaces in the 19th century, and eventually helped Einstein understand the universe. Yang-Hui He sees geometry as a unifying language for modern physics, a mutual exchange in which each discipline can influence and shape the other. In the latest episode of The Joy of Why, He tells co-host Steven Strogatz how geometry evolved from its practical roots in ancient civilizations to its influence in the theory of general relativity and string theory — and speculates how AI could further revolutionize the field. They also discuss the tension between formal, rigorous mathematics and intuition-driven insight, and why there are two types of mathematicians — “birds” who have a broad overview of ideas from above, and “hedgehogs” who dig deep on one particular idea.

In this episode, I sit down with Joachim Tantau–a cabinetmaker, artist, teacher, and occasional architect to explore the quiet power of sacred geometry. Joachim works at the intersection of tradition, craftsmanship, and cosmic math. His approach to design isn't just about aesthetics, it's about uncovering the fundamental order embedded in nature, music, architecture, and even the movements of planets.We talk about how flowers, planets, and buildings all share hidden proportional systems; why the Golden Ratio keeps showing up in history and design; and how ancient builders created structures more efficient-and more awe-inspiring-than much of what we build today. We also dig into why beauty is not just a luxury, but a basic human need.If you've ever felt like modern buildings don't quite “speak” to you, this might explain why.CHAPTERS00:00 The Role of Sacred Geometry in Design03:12 Exploring Sacred Geometry08:30 Understanding Sacred Geometry13:27 The Intersection of Geometry and Music17:03 Sacred Geometry in Architecture27:16 The Importance of Beauty in Design39:01 Geometry in Modern Engineering48:53 Rediscovering Wonder in the Modern World54:09 The Distinction Between Pleasure and Enjoyment01:00:17 Connecting Architecture with Nature and Geometry01:06:04 Ancient Architecture and Cosmic Proportions01:11:10 Teaching Sacred Geometry in Design01:17:26 Practical Applications of Sacred Geometry in ArchitectureCONNECT WITH JOACHIM:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joachimtantau/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JoachimTantauLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joachim-tantau-53849055Website: https://www.joachimtantau.com/home.html MENTIONED RESOURCES:The Hidden Geometry of Flowers: Living Rhythms, Form and Number by Keith Critchlow: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12293965-the-hidden-geometry-of-flowers The Dimensions of Paradise: Sacred Geometry, Ancient Science, and the Heavenly Order on Earth by John Michell : https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1443804.The_Dimensions_of_Paradise Sacred Art in East and West by Titus Burckhardt: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/371784.Sacred_Art_in_East_and_West_1st_Edition CONNECT WITH AUSTIN TUNNELLNewsletter: https://playbook.buildingculture.com/ https://www.instagram.com/austintunnell/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/austin-tunnell-2a41894a/ https://twitter.com/AustinTunnellCONNECT WITH BUILDING CULTUREhttps://www.buildingculture.com/ https://www.instagram.com/buildingculture/ https://twitter.com/build_culture https://www.facebook.com/BuildCulture/ SPONSORSThank you so much to the sponsors of The Building Culture Podcast!Sierra Pacific Windows: https://www.sierrapacificwindows.com/ One Source Windows: https://onesourcewindows.com/

Från romaner till romanesco: fraktalerna finns överallt

Från moln till Mozart, från kustlinjer till livets slut, återfinns fraktaler. Helena Granström funderar över verklighetens och konstens struktur. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.När en matematiker försöker sig på att skämta kan det låta såhär:Vad står bokstaven B för i Benoit B Mandelbrot? Rätt svar: Benoit B Mandelbrot. Huruvida denna vits någonsin åstadkommer några skrattsalvor ska jag låta vara osagt, men den som förstår poängen har i alla fall också förstått vad som kännetecknar fraktalerna, de matematiska objekt som utforskades ingående av just denne Mandelbrot: att de innehåller delen som är helheten som innehåller delen som är helheten, och så vidare.Därav skämtets poäng: Namnet Benoit B Mandelbrot inneslutet i namnet Benoit B Mandelbrot inneslutet i namnet Benoit B Mandelbrot i all oändlighet.Man kan tänka på ett blomkålshuvud, eller ännu hellre på en romanesco: Bryt loss en bukett, och du kommer i denna bukett att få se det stora huvudet i mindre format. Bryt loss en mindre bukett av denna bukett, och så ännu en mindre från denna: Samma sak upprepar sig, med allt mindre kålhuvuden som fortsätter att spira från allt mindre kålhuvuden. En ovanligt hänförande fraktal kallad Mandelbrotmängden upptäcktes av Mandelbrot själv, och karakteriseras av att en förhållandevis enkel formel ger upphov till en närmast outtömlig komplexitet: ett outgrundligt överflödande universum alstrat av en simpel instruktion. Inför denna rikedom är det svårt att hålla fast vid tanken på att matematiken bara skulle vara något som människan har hittat på: ”Mandelbrotmängden är”, som matematikern Roger Penrose påpekat, ”inte något som det mänskliga sinnet har uppfunnit; den upptäcktes.” Precis på samma sätt som Mount Everest, finns den bara där.Men fraktalerna existerar alltså inte enbart i den rena matematikens sfär, utan i högsta grad i verkligheten: Vi kan finna dem i kustlinjer och floddeltan, ormbunkar och åskviggar, blodkärl och neuroner, galaxkluster och bergskedjor och moln. I var och en av dessa strukturer ser man helheten upprepa sig i de mindre delarna: Den som betraktar en del av en bergig kust kan inte utifrån dess form avgöra om det är en liten sträcka som de ser på nära håll, eller en längre på stort avstånd; och varje liten del av ett moln skulle, betraktad för sig själv, lika gärna kunna vara det stora molnet självt. Till och med vår arvsmassa är arrangerad enligt denna struktur, inpassad i den trånga cellkärnan genom identiska vikningar som sker i mindre och mindre skala. Naturen är, med andra ord, i högsta grad fraktal – och år 2016 kom ett antal polska kärnfysiker lite oväntat också fram till slutsatsen att detsamma gäller litteraturen.Det är en häpnadsväckande upptäckt, även om den kanske är lite mindre fruktbar än vad en författare skulle önska – för hur gärna jag än vill skulle jag inte kunna låta varje stycke i denna essä utgöra en miniatyr av helheten – och varje mening en miniatyr av varje stycke – och varje ord en miniatyr av varje mening. Även om det hade varit outsägligt elegant. Den amerikanska författaren Paul Auster har visserligen gjort gällande att den första meningen i hans roman Mr Vertigo innehåller essensen av hela verket – men den fraktala strukturen i kända verk av författare som Virginia Woolf och Robert Bolano låter sig avtäckas först genom ingående statistisk analys. De litteraturintresserade polska fysikerna genomförde till exempel en kartläggning av fördelningen av meningarnas längd i de romaner de studerade: Vad som framträdde var en form av idealt fraktalmönster, särskilt skönjbart i den typ av litteratur som brukar betecknas som medvetandeström. Mest fraktal av alla – till och med multifraktal, det vill säga innehållande fraktaler av fraktaler – lär James Joyces svårgenomträngliga Finnegan's Wake vara. När det gäller lyrik har en ambitiös forskare med en besläktad metod lyckats med konststycket att finna Cantormängden, en annan känd fraktal, i form av förekomsten av ordet know i en dikt av den amerikanske poeten Wallace Stevens. Och även i musiken är det möjligt att finna fraktala strukturer – föga förvånande till exempel hos en kompositör som Johann Sebastian Bach, i vars tredje cellosvit en musicerande matematiker lyckats identifiera ett påfallande exakt exempel på samma Cantormängd.Bevisar det att konstnärerna, tidigare än matematikerna, har förmått att uppfatta tillvarons inre struktur? Att dessa skapande människor på ett omedvetet vis har anat formen hos de kärl som fyller människokroppens lungvävnad, hos de kärl i vilka dess blod flödar och hos det nätverk av nervceller som överhuvudtaget gör aningar – omedvetna eller inte – möjliga. Kanske är det denna djupt liggande intuition som Mandelbrot själv också anspelar på när han konstaterar att barn inte undrar ”över temperaturen hos en gas eller kollisioner mellan atomer, utan över formerna hos träd, moln och blixtar.” Undrar de, för att de i dessa former identifierar något märkvärdigt bekant, något som lånar sin form också åt deras eget inre?Men å andra sidan skulle författarnas benägenhet att skriva fram fraktaler kunna ges en mer prosaisk förklaring än så, för också det mänskliga livets yttre ramar låter oss ju stifta bekantskap med det fraktala: Dygnet kan förstås som en miniatyr av året som i sin tur kan framstå som en miniatyr av det mänskliga livsförloppet. Men inte bara det: Möjligen, skriver matematikern Michael Frame i den märkliga lilla skriften The Geometry of Grief, kan även sorgen sägas uppvisa en självlikhet på olika skalor, eftersom varje sorg i sin tur består av många små delsorger, varje förlust av en mängd olika möjligheter eller tillfällen eller erfarenheter som för alltid gått förlorade. Inuti sorgen över en älskad människas bortgång, oövervinnerlig i sin väldighet, finns sorgen över att aldrig mer få hålla hennes hand, över att aldrig mer få höra hennes röst, över att aldrig mer få vända sig till henne med sina tankar. Och det faktum att de många små sorgerna liknar den stora sorgen i art om än inte i storlek gör det möjligt, fortsätter Frame sitt resonemang, att öva sig: Att lära sig ett sätt att tackla den väldiga, till synes ohanterliga sorgen, genom att prövande och försiktigt ta sig an de mindre sorgerna, en i sänder. Och betraktat med den fraktala geometrins blick framstår på sätt och vis hela livet så, som en repetition i liten skala för de stora skeenden som hela tiden – och samtidigt, bara långsammare – utspelar sig: varje glädje en liten replik av den större glädjen, varje misslyckande och varje närmande och varje känslosvall en replik av sina större motsvarigheter av vilka de också utgör en del. Och förstås – detta är väl den fraktala livsstrukturens dystraste sida – utgör var och en av tillvarons otaliga förluster en sorts miniatyr av den slutliga förlust som väntar oss alla, den av livet självt.Hur man ska gaska upp sig efter en sådan nedslående insikt är inte helt klart – men kanske kan åtminstone matematikerna ibland oss finna lättnad i ännu ett exempel på humor för de få:–Hur gick det för matematikern som blev gammal och sjuk, dog han? –Nejdå. Han förlorade bara några av sina funktioner. Helena Granströmförfattare med bakgrund inom fysik och matematik

Why is it so difficult to study the evolution of early galaxies? Are metallic D&D dice better than plastic ones? And can you have too many Pokémon tattoos? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome Justin Cole, who is currently a grad student at Texas A&M studying the evolution of distant galaxies in pursuit of his PhD in Astronomy and Astrophysics. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing – the recent – and remarkable – discovery of four planets orbiting Barnard's Star, a tiny star not much bigger than Jupiter with the highest measured proper motion of any star in our sky. Chuck and Justin discuss why the discovery of new exoplanets is so challenging, which leads to Justin explaining what he's studying: galaxies in our universe that developed less than 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang – about 2.5 billion years before the birth of our own Milky Way Galaxy. We've got a handle on what's going on with our neighbors like the Andromeda Galaxy, but when it comes to early galaxies, we have a very limited range of wavelengths and scant data to study. This makes it harder to derive understandings of galactic evolution and whether they support or conflict with the standard model of physics. Our first audience question comes from Ricardo, who asks, “What if we discover extraterrestrial plant life and find out it's intelligent? Actually, what if we discover plants on Earth are intelligent? Would it be unethical to eat them?” After Chuck shares a little about Marvel's intelligent, telepathic species of plants called the Cotati, and imitates Audrey 2 from Little Shop of Horrors, Justin weighs in on the ethics of eating intelligent plants and asks a critical question: Would we understand them enough to know? What would happen if we bit into a head of alien lettuce and it started screaming? The ensuing discussion is… tasty, albeit a little unsettling. Our next question is from Thomasina, who asks, “I read that the Big Bang theory is in trouble – what does that mean? And did the Big Bang never happen?” Justin, who is an early universe guy, clarifies what's going on here. We occasionally find galaxies that seem to be too big for the amount of time that they've had to grow. We're also finding black holes that with our current instruments, also appear to be too big. In each case, we're finding better ways to simulate these situations, and it's not that they're too big, or that the Big Bang isn't supportable, it's that we're using tools that are calibrated to “nearby and today” that aren't as good at helping us assess early galaxies. Next up, Justin, who is getting ready to run a Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition roleplaying session after the podcast recording, talks about using D&D Beyond to create his own campaigns (set in the World of Warcraft universe!). Chuck and Justin discuss the benefits of rolling metal dice, and Justin shows off a couple of his beautiful D20. Not to be outdone, Allen shares his 120-sided die, the largest die allowed by three dimensional Euclidean geometry in conventional space. Meanwhile, Chuck tells us the sad story of his old, worn plastic dice. As Allen points out, Chuck was in the hobby before it was cool! And as we run out of time, Justin shares his intention to get one Pokémon tattoo for every state he and his wife visit. If you'd like to know more about what Justin's up to, he suggests you Google “Justin Cole Astronomy” or “Justin Cole A&M.” We hope you enjoy this episode of The LIUniverse, and, if you do, please support us on Patreon.

Despite its quiet appearance, the brain is the seat of complicated wave dynamics. Indeed, cognitive processes are carried out through communications between neurons, leading to synchronisation and oscillations at different frequencies that can be recorded. Together, these oscillations also create waves that propagate through different regions. Apart from this electrical activity, the brain is also the siege of slow chemical waves that can cause migraine and mechanical waves arising from trauma. In this lecture, we will study the influence of all these waves on brain function.This lecture was recorded by Alain Goriely on 18th March 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Alain is Gresham Professor of Geometry.He is currently the Director of the Oxford Centre for Industrial and Applied Mathematics and was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society in 2022.The transcript of the lecture is available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/turbulent-brain-rhythms-and-wavesGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

The concept of a schema goes back at least to the philosopher Immanuel Kant in the 1700s, who use the term to refer to a kind of built-in mental framework to organize sensory experience. But it was the psychologist Frederic Bartlett in the 1930s who used the term schema in a psychological sense, to explain how our memories are organized and how new information gets integrated into our memory. Fast forward another 100 years to today, and we have a podcast episode with my guest today, Alison Preston, who runs the Preston Lab at the University of Texas at Austin. On this episode, we discuss her neuroscience research explaining how our brains might carry out the processing that fits with our modern conception of schemas, and how our brains do that in different ways as we develop from childhood to adulthood. I just said, "our modern conception of schemas," but like everything else, there isn't complete consensus among scientists exactly how to define schema. Ali has her own definition. She shares that, and how it differs from other conceptions commonly used. I like Ali's version and think it should be adopted, in part because it helps distinguish schemas from a related term, cognitive maps, which we've discussed aplenty on brain inspired, and can sometimes be used interchangeably with schemas. So we discuss how to think about schemas versus cognitive maps, versus concepts, versus semantic information, and so on. Last episode Ciara Greene discussed schemas and how they underlie our memories, and learning, and predictions, and how they can lead to inaccurate memories and predictions. Today Ali explains how circuits in the brain might adaptively underlie this process as we develop, and how to go about measuring it in the first place.

Khalid Oluewu, principal of Webster Elementary School in Chicago, has done what many principals would love to do: He has created structures and practices at his school to ACCELERATE learning for all, and in particular for Black males.  Wow. The idea started when he was a teacher and taught middle school math and had students come to him years behind. He looped with the students and in three short years he not only got them on grade level, but when they went to high school they were able to skip Algebra and start with Geometry.  Now as a principal he put four things in place to accelerate learning - to have students learn one and a half years' worth in just a year): Have teachers focus on PRIORITY standards Have teachers provide JUST-IN-TIME supports not live in remediation Provide more individualized learning by having teachers use small groups and by partnering with organizations who could provide high-impact tutoring Using tech platforms for more individualized learning The results? In one year the overall proficiency level leaped from just 6% to 50% and for Black boys, it went from just 2% to 30%! Truly impressive. And those numbers keep climbing up, far from the single-digit proficiency levels they were before.  To learn more, check out these resources: Read Khalid's research paper: Year of Acceleration for All (Yes, that includes Black Males) Visit Webster Elementary School if you're in Chicago Reach out via email: koluewu@cps.edu  As always, send your comments, questions, and show ideas to mike@schoolleadershipshow.com.

SYNOPSIS: Ali is in the hot seat today! The tables have turned as longtime friend, student and Television Producer, Lauren Gleason, interviews Ali about her body-based method, Personal Geometry® - a practice she developed to give the body a language that our cognitive minds can immediately access and understand.  Together, they explore how Personal Geometry® and body mapping techniques are used in therapeutic and clinical healing, particularly in addressing challenges related to the body, sexuality, and addiction. Ali shares how she refined her method while working in renowned rehab centres in Los Angeles, offering real-life examples of its impact and honoring the influence and her experience of Family Constellation Work.They discuss the power of mapping relational dynamics - how visualizing the roles we hold in family systems can illuminate unconscious patterns, especially in the context of addiction and trauma. Other topics explored include the common phenomenon of emotional incest, the challenges and call to work with perpetrators, sexual biases as a facilitator, and our universal need to belong.At its core, Personal Geometry® is a somatic practice that taps into the body's innate, felt-sense understanding of spatial relationships. By bypassing psychological defense mechanisms, it directly reveals how we unconsciously position ourselves in relation to others, environments, and internal conflicts. This non-verbal, embodied approach provides a clear and immediate visual representation of a client's inner world, making it an invaluable tool for therapists, facilitators, and anyone seeking profound transformation.  PERSONAL GEOMETRY TRAININGSJoin the Next Personal Geometry® Foundations Class  (online over Zoom)Now enrolling - click here for more details.
