Jazzy STEAM

The worlds of theoretical physics and jazz collide in this free public event on the Musco stage. Brown University professor, Chapman Presidential Fellow, and saxophonist Dr. Stephon Alexander leads a group of world-class musicians and cutting-edge physicists who bring to vivid life his best-selling book, The Jazz of Physics. Part concert and part scientific panel, this brilliant afternoon event reveals the true interconnectivity of STEAM – Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math – and how STEAM drives education and the universe. Joining Alexander will be jaron Lanier (the father of “Virtual Reality”), Melvin Gibbs (Grammy-nominated songwriter, composer, and musician), and Will Calhoun (multi-Grammy award-winning Living Color drummer).
