Cormac McCarthy and Werner Herzog talk science and art…

In this discussion from NPR, Cormac MaCarthy and Werner Herzog (both of whom I hold in high regard), meet eachother and along with physicist Lawrence Krauss and have an interesting talk… here’s the NPR link where you can find both audio and text recordings of the encounter..

A brief overview from the NPR site… “Science and art often seem to develop in separate silos, but many thinkers are inspired by both. Novelist Cormac McCarthy, filmmaker Werner Herzog and physicist Lawrence Krauss discuss science as inspiration for art and Herzog’s new film on the earliest known cave paintings.”
