Fermilab | Neutrino music: a composer’s journey – Public lecture by Dr. David Ibbett @fermilab | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
Dr. David Ibbett is a composer, educator and musical advocate for science. He is the first person named Fermilab guest composer. He composes electrosymphonic music: a fusion of classical and electronic styles that interweaves influences from songs, symphonies, pop, rock and electronica. Musical strands are met with inspiration from the work of scientists: sonified data, musical metaphors for scientific concepts, and experimental sound and images from contemporary research.
Ibbett visited Fermilab in January 2020 to learn more about neutrino research at the lab and started working on his first neutrino-inspired compositions. In this lecture he presents the results of his work, with a guest appearance by neutrino scientist Dr. Bonnie Fleming.
Ibbett is based in Boston. He directs the Multiverse Concert Series, a project that combines music and science in live performance. His lifelong passion for science began with his father, Dr. Roger Ibbett, who is a research chemist in Nottingham, UK.
