A one-of-a-kind theatrical event direct from New York and sold-out performances in Rome and Asia neither play nor lecture Phalaris's Bull: Solving the Riddle of the Great Big World."A genius philosopher . . . genius of molecular biology"The New York Times Harvard-educated molecular biologist, visual artist and provocative visionary philosopher, Steven Friedman has the answers to life's big questions. Using personal narrative, poetry, art, and science, he delivers a spell-binding performance reflecting his prismatic, transformative and deeply consoling vision of the world. Friedman offers a solution to the worlds pain based not on belief or faith but on logical rigor a philosophy starting from Kierkegaards story of an ancient torture device, Phalaris's bull, that turns the terrible sounds of pain into music. To create is to enter Phalaris's bull, and our pain becomes beauty. (solvingtheriddleplay.com)
