Night Talk – What Goes on Outside The Comfort Zone?
This evening’s programme ends with the Young Academy of Sweden and the think tank Unga tankar musik in conversation with scientists and musicians about the encounter between science and music, knowledge and the arts. Scientists and music professionals have a great deal in common. Creativity and investigating new ways of doing things with a critical and enquiring mind are part of their work processes. It is paving the way for solutions, understanding and artistic creation. Why is it so important to move beyond your comfort Zone? How are we to find solutions to as yet unknown challenges? Together with the audience we explore how we can make the most of our creativity and achieve something entirely new.
The Young Academy of Sweden is an independent, interdisciplinary academy for the brightest young scientists in Sweden today.
The think tank Unga tankar om musik is an independent network that aims to harness the ideas, potential and opinions of young music professionals.
