I had the incredible honour of talking to Sean Carroll, cosmologist, science communicator, author of some amazing books like ”The Big Picture” which I absolutely love, host of the Mindscape podcast. Sean Carroll is currently the Homewood Professor of Natural Philosophy at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore and the Fractal Faculty at the Santa Fe Institute. Most of his career has been spent researching cosmology, field theory, and gravitation, working on topics such as dark matter and dark energy, modified gravity, topological defects, extra dimensions, and violations of fundamental symmetries. More recently, his focus has shifted to more fundamental questions, both in quantum mechanics (the origin of probability, the emergence of space and time) and statistical mechanics (entropy and the arrow of time, emergence and causation, the dynamics of complexity).It was a great pleasure to be able to talk to him about some of the questions that have been on my mind, and I'm happy to say that he provided many valuable insights and perspectives. Dr. Sean Carroll is someone I've wanted to talk to for years, his work has informed much of my thinking on these issues, and I'm so glad it finally worked out, and I got to talk to him.
