  • 60 Second Theories - Paradigm Drift #6, DemystifySci
    Sep 18 2025

    DemystifySci is the place where we bring people together in search of the theories that will change the world, and Paradigm Drift is your chance to have a hand in that future. Theorists, randomly chosen, get 60 seconds to present their revolutionary idea... and then we see if it's gonna stand the test of time or if it's back into the tank for a little while longer.Next one will be Friday 10/17, @7pm Pacific.

When not talking to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time painting, reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Shilo also did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various universities.

  • Unsolved Mysteries of Electrostatics - Dr. Andre Assis, DemystifySci #364
    Sep 16 2025

    Andre Koch Torres Assis is a professor of Physics at the University of Campinas in Brazil, who has been studying the history of electricity and electrodynamics for more than thirty years. As part of his research, he has assembled put together a collection of experiments that demonstrate some of the earliest experiences that natural philosophers had with electricity - and which show how poorly understood these phenomena still are today, more than two hundred years after they were first observed.

  • Entropy is a Death Cult - Howard Bloom, DemystifySci #362
    Sep 8 2025

    Howard Bloom is an author, scientist, and former music industry publicist, who argues that entropy has been disastrously misapplied as a universal law across physics, cosmology, biology, information theory, and culture. In this episode we explore how a concept that was initially formulated in context of steam engines was used to create a story of universe doomed from the start, and explore Bloom’s radical alternative: that the universe — from atoms to galaxies, evolution to economics, music to technology — is not destined for collapse, but driven toward order, complexity, creativity, and flamboyant progress.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs0900:00 Go!
