‘Fringe Physics’ is on display
April 13, 2009
Mortvedt Library is currently showing art works by Shawn Foote who is a graduate student at PLU.
His works displayed on the second floor are entitled "Fringe Physics".
“As a teacher I hope to inspire all my students to become self motivated life long learners,” Foote said. “Art has always been a passion for me and continuing my education is another component that underscores my existence.
“As one who loves to learn, physics has naturally become an area where I frequently dabble. In exploring the deeper levels of modern physics I have come to its boundaries and realized its inherent limitations. I have found the pillars upon which its so-called laws are made and have decided to destroy them, going further into the unexplored realms of ‘Fringe Physics.’
“It is here on this shifting event horizon where I find true inspiration, a space where everything collides with nothing, where time and space become equally malleable and where true creation begins.”
