This week on The Infinite Mind, time is something we’re all familiar with. We observe it, mark it, wish for more or less of it, and even try to escape it. Our relationship with time is constantly changing. But what is time, and why do we measure it as we do? How does our perception of time influence our behavior? And with recent scientific advances, including the discovery of "black holes," time travel may be closer than you think!
Guests include Dr. Anthony Aveni, an astronomer and anthropologist who studies time-keeping and the history of humans’ relationship to time; Dr. Philip Zimbardo, professor of psychology at Stanford University and author of the Zimbardo Time Perception Inventory which measures the relationship between time perception and behavior; Dr. Clifford Pickover, science fiction novelist, and staff member at IBM’s T. J. Watson Research Center; Dr. Paul Hudson, co-founder of the International Time Capsule Society, who discusses the first modern time capsule and its eccentric creator; and we hear a report on the art and science of the public fascination with time travel, and what it says about who we are. Plus commentary by John Hockenberry.
