Andy was an outstanding science communicator and presented at many events with your host Brian Keating and other colleagues from the Arthur C. Clark Center For Human Imagination and UC San Diego. This is a replay recording of one of his last public appearences where he discussed one of his favorite subjects, Quantum Entanglement and Bell’s Inequality.  Einstein famously thought Quantum entanglement was impossible and called it spooky action at a distance.  Dr. Friedman was a Principle collaborator on an experiment of such galactic scale that it was the subject of a PBS NOVA Feature documentary, Einstein’s Quantum Riddle. Along with Andy’s articulate explanation of the cosmic bell test experiment using distant Quasars, your host professor Brian Keating moderates a panel that includes Jason Gallicchio (Professor of Physics, Harvey Mudd College) and David Brin (physicist and Hugo & Nebula-winning author).  As a testament to Andy’s vision and science acumen, since this event, Andy’s collaborator, Anton Zeilinger shared the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics with John Clauser and Alain Aspect, for experiments with entangled photons, further establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science. Their results have cleared the way for new technology based on quantum information profound implications.
