Presenters

Abel Korinsky is one half of Studio Korinsky. Along with Carlo Korinsky, the two media artists conduct research into the reciprocal dynamics among sound, light and architecture, with a focus on how time-based media can be harnessed to create and transform the atmosphere of a space.

Hendrik Schatz is the University Distinguished Professor with faculty appointments at FRIB and in MSU’s Department of Physics and Astronomy and director of the International Research Network for Nuclear Astrophysics (IReNA). He has been a part of the FRIB staff since 1999 and holds his PhD in physics from the University of Heidelberg.
