Bendiksen Airways - Your ticket to a world of ideas and conversations#71 - Karen Crowther (physics, philosophy, reality, space-time)Description:
In this mind-expanding episode of Bendiksen Airways, we sit down with Dr. Karen Crowther, Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Oslo, to explore some of the most profound questions in modern physics and philosophy. What if spacetime, the very fabric of our universe, is not fundamental but emergent? Could our perceptions of reality be just a "useful fiction"? Join us as we dive deep into the nature of reality, the search for quantum gravity, and the potential future where spacetime as we know it could be completely reimagined. This is an episode that will...2024-11-041h 02

PuzzleLa poésie pour saisir le tempsCette semaine, c’est encore les vacances pour beaucoup. Et c’est l’occasion, pour toute l’équipe de Puzzle de prendre son temps. Enfin de découvrir le temps, plutôt. Le temps qui file, le temps qu’on remonte, le temps qui s’accélère, le temps qui s’écoule lentement, le temps qu’on aimerait arrêter, le temps qu’on savoure… Que faut-il lire quand on a le temps ? Ou plutôt que faut-il prendre le temps de lire ? Qui sont ces artistes sur lesquels le temps n’a pas de prise ? Que faut-il regarder si l’on veut saisir l...2020-08-1109 min
Perpetual Chess PodcastEP.156 - FM Michiel AbelnIn addition to his day job, in which he maintains a senior leadership role at Shell Oil, FM Michiel Abeln is a chess trainer and a chess journalist. Late this year, he and Quality Chess Publishing released his book, The Anand Files: The World Championship Story 2008-2012. It is an incredible book, which goes deep into the ups and downs, games, opening theory, and most of all, the emotions of GM Viswanathan Anand’s team during the 2008, 2010 and 2012 world championship matches. In our conversation, Michiel takes us from the nervous beginnings of this project, through to many of the interesting de...2019-12-161h 33

MCMP – Philosophy of ScienceNovelty and autonomy as bases for, or alternatives to, a conception of emergence in physicsKaren Crowther (Sydney) gives a talk at the MCMP conference "Reduction and Emergence in the Sciences" (14-16 November, 2013) titled "Novelty and autonomy as bases for, or alternatives to, a conception of emergence in physics". Abstract: An effective theory in physics is one that is supposed to apply only at a given length (or energy) scale; the framework of effective field theory (EFT) describes a ‘tower’ of theories each applying at different length scales, where each ‘level’ up is a shorter-scale theory. A subtlety regarding the use and necessity of EFTs means that any conception of emergence related to reduction is irreleva...2014-01-2826 minMCMP – Philosophy of PhysicsEmergent spacetime in condensed matter analogues of general relativityKaren Crowther (Sydney) gives a talk at the MCMP Colloquium (13 November, 2013) titled "Emergent spacetime in condensed matter analogues of general relativity". Abstract: It has been claimed, based on a few different lines of reasoning, that the notion of spacetime will not appear in a quantum theory of gravity. If this is the case, then spacetime is an emergent concept. Analogue models of general relativity based in condensed matter systems present us with concrete examples of emergent spacetime, and could potentially help us understand the nature of emergent spacetime in the context of quantum gravity. These models present a curved spacetime...2014-01-2300 minMCMP – Philosophy of PhysicsComment on Daniele Oriti's "Dissappearance and Emergence of Space and Time in Quantum Gravity"Karen Crowther (Sydney) comments on Daniele Oriti's "Dissappearance and Emergence of Space and Time in Quantum Gravity" at the MCMP workshop "Quantum Gravity in Perspective" (31 May-1 June, 2013).2013-10-0900 min
