Antony Garrett Lisi

On the 21^st of May at the Digital October center a teleconference with the prominent researcher, Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything”.

Lisi, an American theoretical physicist, officially does not work with any institution. This free artist, peeking through the eyes of Schrodinger’s cat, lives on the island of Maui, exploring the world of elementary particles through the prism of deferential geometry and, in his free time, surfing and snowboarding.

Anthony discusses physics in simple terms without complicated formulas, using, for example, corals as a model. His approach to research is more reminiscent of a modern startup than the physics laboratories typically portrayed in films with their voltmeters, oscilloscopes, and hadron colliders. While travelling in his RV, Lisi has engaged in scientific research and preached a new type of research institution: scientific hostels – large houses, located in the beautiful corners of the world, where scholars can live and work via the Internet. 

Lisi’s personal contribution to science is the development of the “E8 Theory”, based on the Elementary Particle Explorer”. The publication of “An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything” on November 6, 2007 caused mixed reactions and was quite controversial because even the most famous scientists have tried, and have been unable, to formulate a unified field theory.
