Yesterday · 7 minThe paradox at the heart of mathematics: Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem - Marcus du Sautoy
Explore Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem, a discovery which changed what we know about mathematical proofs and statements. Uploaded 20-07-21 -- Consider the following sentence: “This statement is false.” Is that true? If so, that would make the statement false. But if it’s false, then the statement is true. This sentence creates an unsolvable paradox; if it’s not true and it’s not false– what is it? This question led a logician to a discovery that would change mathematics forever.

Monday · 10 minDeciphering a visible quantum object - Aaron O'Connell
Physicists are used to the idea that subatomic particles behave according to the bizarre rules of quantum mechanics, completely different to human-scale objects. In a breakthrough experiment, Aaron O'Connell has blurred that distinction by creating an object that is visible to the unaided eye, but provably in two places at the same time. In this talk he suggests an intriguing way of thinking about the result. Talk by Aaron O'Connell. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Monday · 7 minWhy is this painting of a black square iconic? - Allison Leigh
Discover the symbolism of Kazimir Malevich’s “Black Square,” and how it pushed the boundaries of what art is and what it can be. -- In 1915, an exhibition of radical artworks opened in Russia. Many pieces pushed the boundaries of form and style, but one was particularly controversial: Kazimir Malevich’s “Black Square.” Criticized as simple and uninspired, Malevich’s work is more complicated than it first appears— and may not be a painting of a black square at all. Allison Leigh digs into the art style known as Suprematism. Lesson by Allison Leigh, directed by Alexia Roider, Zedem Media.
