The Einstein/Bergson Debate with
Bruno Latour, Olafur Eliasson, Elie During, Jimena Canales
On April 6, 1922 Henri Bergson and Albert Einstein met at the Société française de philosophie de Paris to discuss the meaning of relativity. The following year exploded a lively debate between the philosopher and scientist, won by Einstein. With three invited speakers, Olafur Eliasson, known for his monumental work with the perception of time and space, the philosopher Elie During, and the historian Jimena Canales, Bruno Latour intends to establish a bit of balance to the debate, in order to see if Bergson can teach us how to better speak about physics.
