...decided to go to Harvard even though by that time you were pretty immersed in the design world and had the opportunity to study at some of the top design schools. How did you make that decision? Have you ever regretted it? LEG: I do think it was a great decision. I have never regretted it. I didn’t want to go just to an art school. I think art is so great, but I really wanted to surround myself with people with all different interests and talents and passions because I believed it would help...
Nielsen and Ninomiya's theory represents one side of an intellectual divide between particle physicists today. Contemporary physicists tend to fall into one of two camps: the theorists, who posit ideas about the origins and workings of the universe; and experimentalists, who design telescopes and particle accelerators to test these theories, or provide new data from which novel theories can emerge. Most experimentalists believe that the theorists, due to a lack of new data in recent years, have reached a roadblock - the Standard Model, which is the closest thing the theorists have to an evidence-backed "theory of everything," provides...

...design elements in the show do little to help the audience engage with the production. As mentioned, the scenery is mostly just barroom décor completed by a totally inexplicable jigsaw pattern painted on the floor. The lighting has a few select moments where it explicates the atmosphere of a scene, but otherwise it does little to aid the drama at hand. The sound is a dismal effort, relying largely on tacky, cartoonish underscoring that reduces the tone of any given scene to garish musical stereotypes...
