  • Jack White collabs with Carl Sagan?

    Well, no. Not really. Carl Sagan is dead. But White's Third Man Records has just announced that it will be releasing a 7-inch single of "A Glorious Dawn," a project by The Symphony of Science, the brain child of John Boswell. His thing is remixing old clips of science heavyweights into loungey, Auto-Tuned club jams. It's really cool. You should give it a listen even if both science and lounge music turn you off; you may surprise yourself.

    This is "A Glorious Dawn" (feat. Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking):

    And this is "We Are All Connected" (feat. Sagan, Feynman, deGrasse Tyson & Bill Nye):

    Coincidentally, I'm currently working on a book which incorporates alien life forms, and this one answered a lot of questions for me.
