This unique performance combines dance, video, and physics to explore the connections between art and science and draw students to the field. Sponsored by FRIB, it offers an engaging experience through a blend of movement, imagery, and scientific ideas.
About the performance
“Of Equal Place: Isotopes in Motion” delves into research being done at FRIB while exploring themes that resonate in both nuclear physics and dance: stability and instability, measurement, acceleration, fragmentation, and navigating mystery.
The unique dance and science performance is a broad collaboration between FRIB, the Wharton Center for Performing Arts at Michigan State University (MSU), Dance Exchange (Takoma Park, Maryland), Happendance (Okemos, Michigan), and students from Everett High School and Dwight Rich School of the Arts (Lansing, Michigan).
FRIB has sponsored two performances so far, one in 2022 and another in 2024.
