Virginia Woolf, At Intersection Of Science And Art

August 18th, 2008 by Steve Bowbrick

Robert Krulwich is the older, funnier one from WNYC's Radio Lab, a show we've featured here quite often. He's also NPR's science specialist and makes terrific science inserts for shows like Weekend Edition and Morning Edition. We don't make science programmes like this in Britain. It's clever and funny and formally bold: Krulwich builds a short piece about neuroscience and the integrity of the self around Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway: a nicely arranged collision of science and art. The MP3 is here, there's a programme archive here and a podcast here.
