Radiolab,充滿天才的創作

賈德·阿布姆拉德是個天才。我一直都這樣認為,但當你的猜想被外界證實後總是令人高興的。上週,當我聽說他因在[...]上的工作而被麥克阿瑟基金會授予“天才”獎時,我感到一種間接的、發自內心的純粹喜悅。

賈德·阿布姆拉德是個天才。我一直都這樣認為,但當你的猜想被外界證實後總是令人高興的。上週,當我聽說他因在精彩的公共廣播節目Radiolab上的工作而被麥克阿瑟基金會授予“天才”獎時,我感到一種間接的、發自內心的純粹喜悅,Radiolab

任何曾經有機會問我推薦播客,甚至是在長途駕駛時聽點什麼的人,總是會聽到我對Radiolab的熱愛的長篇獨白。在賈德·阿布姆拉德和羅伯特·克魯威奇*定期邀請到節目中的一連串著名而迷人的科學家,以及你在每一秒隨機音效和賈德巧妙創作的音樂中感受到的驚奇之間,這個節目似乎滿足了人類渴望提出大問題並嘗試找到真正答案的基本願望,同時提醒你,在許多情況下,尋找答案的過程比答案本身更有趣。

為了慶祝,我想與您分享該節目的一個“短片”,一個關於一個名叫鮑勃·米爾恩的人的20分鐘長的故事,他是一位拉格泰姆鋼琴家,擁有不可思議的能力……好吧,我不想完全劇透節目。但我會說,測試他這種奇異能力的有效性需要一位神經科學家和一臺fMRI掃描器。請在下面收聽,或訪問Radiolab網站下載稍後收聽

About Princess Ojiaku

Hey there! I'm a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin Madison in the Neuroscience and Public Policy program. I'm also a musician who played in two bands in North Carolina, one called Pink Flag and another called Deals. My personal passions are science, music, and cycling as transportation.

I got into science as a kid while tagging along and watching my mom do experiments in her lab. I found that while I loved science, I didn't want to be alone in an ivory tower, crunching data that few others would understand. I also noticed that many other people thought science was this scary and incomprehensible entity of obscurity. When I realized that there were people working to make science fun and accessible to everyone, I knew that this was exactly what I wanted to do. The two things I find the most immensely interesting and continually impressing are music and neuroscience, so these are the topics that I'll focus on in my blog. Philosophy and politics are my second loves, so I might pop in an occasional post on these topics as well. Ultimately I am here to share things that give me wonder. I hope that reading Science with Moxie gives you a bit of that wonder too.
