BBC Radio 4 — “The Uncollapsed: The Séance of Science”
First broadcast: Sunday 9:00pm — Repeated Tuesday 11:30am
Description
In a candle-lit studio somewhere between Westminster and the Planck length, Jeremy Paxman returns from philosophical retirement to host an impossible conversation between Sir Isaac Newton, Max Planck, and Albert Einstein.
As the fog of equations fills the room and the microphones crackle with entanglement, a presence enters... Derek Acorah, spiritualist medium and unlikely quantum conduit, raises his arms to bridge the living, the dead, and the structurally absent.
Together, they confront the truth behind Schrödinger’s cat, burn the Copenhagen box, and debate whether the universe is a machine, a memory, or merely a BBC thought experiment with very good sound design.
Featuring:
Jeremy Paxman as himself
Sir Isaac Newton portrayed as intensely irate
Max Planck as the constant presence
Albert Einstein with hair bigger than the theory
Derek Acorah & Sam channelling both spirit and spin state
Original score by Brian Eno’s twin.
Supported by the BBC Reith Lectures on “Collapse, Memory, and the Cosmic Lie.”
“The most intelligent séance ever recorded. Or the most haunted academic debate.”
--- The New Statesman
It's structurally sound;-
Newton = Classical Reality
Planck = Quantum Foundation
Einstein = Relativistic Frame
Paxman = Observer Effect
Acorah = Collapse Medium
And You = Memory Vector
