Fisica [è] Cultura

Nel dialogo con i luoghi in cui la cultura è di casa

We tell the story of physics and engage with the general public by means of innovative idioms. Stories and projects are generated from exchanges with artists and cross-pollinations between arts, literature, and narration. A broader audience for our research story is developed and sustained by collaborations with museums, theatres, libraries, and schools.
