27: Ian Jauslin - crystals, complications, and curiosity
Description
With mathematical physicist Ian Jauslin, we explore both scientific and personal topics, including:
- whether our universe could be nonlocal
- why not to put people and concepts into boxes
- what can math look like when approached organically
- how to constantly keep learning
