The Electric Universe

Deptford based artist Paul Malone takes you on a unique and controversial tour of the Universe.

Originally devised to introduce artists and designers to the wide range of forms inherent in plasma structures, this talk follows contemporary speculations into the role that electro-dynamics play in the morphologies of objects that we see in modern astronomy.

Otherwise known as 'Electric Universe' theory or 'Plasma Cosmology', it draws from publications by members of the IEEE and others and traces the history of the study of electricity in Space from Birkeland through Langmuir and Jeurgens to today's advocates.

Contains movies and images sourced from the internet, archives and the latest telescopes.
