The Elegant Universe<br />

A crash course in string theory – the possible theory of everything. Fastpaced,<br />

crammed with high-street graphics and the best visualizations<br />

money can buy, this four-part Nova series does a fantastic job of making<br />

sense of something which inherently doesn’t make sense – as everyone<br />

in this show will tell you. Great pains are taken to keep things as simple<br />

as the honor of physicists will allow, and the host Brian Greene, physicist<br />

and author of the book of the same title, offers state-of-the-art explanations<br />

for weird ideas. I learned a whole lot. It’s the best science teaching<br />

format yet.<br />

By Joseph McMaster<br />

and Julia Cort<br />

2003, 180 min.<br />

Five Brian Greenes demonstrate the notion<br />

of a multi-verse (top). At the core of matter<br />

are vibrating strings somewhat like sound<br />

vibrations (left), but much, much smaller.
