Welcome to Physics in Frames, a podcast that explores the fascinating intersection where cinematic storytelling meets the laws of physics. Join us as we analyse how filmmakers throughout history have visualised complex scientific concepts through the magic of cinema.
From Einstein’s relativity in Interstellar to quantum mechanics in The Matrix, each episode breaks down both the physics principles and the filmmaking techniques that bring them to life. We’ll explore how directors translate invisible scientific forces into powerful visual experiences, sometimes sacrificing accuracy for emotional impact, and other times achieving surprising scientific precision.
Coming Spring 2025, Physics in Frames will feature discussions with film scholars, conversations with physicists, and deep dives into iconic movie scenes that have shaped our collective understanding of the universe.
