Wonderfest: Why Time Flies - A Mostly Scientific Inquiry

Time may be �" simultaneously! �" both the most mundane and the most mysterious feature of our universe. Wonderfest and Bookshop West Portal present The New Yorker’s Alan Burdick in discussion of his new book, Why Time Flies: A Mostly Scientific Investigation. What is time, really? Do children experience it the same way adults do? Why does it seem to slow down when we’re bored and speed by as we get older? How do scientists measure it, and why is probability involved? How and why does time fly?

Speaker: Alan Burdick, The New Yorker
