Steven Young explores the complexities of modern science with a particular focus on nuclear physics and the critique of scientific legitimacy. The conversation examines how fear intersects with science, the historical context of alchemy, and what Steven sees as the absurdities of astrophysics.
Steven shares his journey from nuclear physicist to music producer. His perspective rather interestingly bridges the gap between physics and music through wave theory.
He emphasises the need for a more holistic understanding of knowledge that moves beyond narrow specialisation.
Steven questions the existence of atoms and viruses in current scientific discourse and adds that fear has become a tool to control how people perceive science.
