General Theory of Relativity

Many of us have experienced the same; fallen and broken something. Yet supposedly, gravity is the weakest of the fundamental forces; it is claimed to be 10-15 times weaker than electromagnetism. Still, every one of us has more or less had a personal relationship with gravity.

The Theory of Relativity traces Albert Einstein's groundbreaking ideas, special and general relativity, from the discoveries in physics that laid their foundation to relativityﾒs application to todayﾒs world. The book presents scientific formulas, in-depth explanations of abstract concepts, and a detailed look at how Einstein's theories influence everyday technology, like television and GPS. Along the way, the text demonstrates the importance of theoretical experiments in scientific discovery.

Wojciech Blazejczyks music feeds on scientific theories, internet streams and civilization waves or scrap; it sometimes looks like a nerds diary. Full of different colours and fonts, notes, charts, exclamations and underlined words. This diary is the composers reaction to what surrounds him every day.
