In this episode of Theories of Everything, Curt Jaimungal speaks with physicist Avshalom Elitzur, co-creator of the famous bomb-testing experiment, as he unveils a bold new vision of reality where spacetime emerges from quantum interactions in pure nothingness. Elitzur challenges conventional physics with ideas like negative mass particles and the continuous creation of spacetime, offering a fresh perspective on the nature of existence.SPONSOR (THE ECONOMIST): As a listener of TOE you can get a special 20% off discount to The Economist and all it has to offer!
