The Geometry of Grief

Sara Bareilles + Michael Frame

A live Sing for Science taping with a special three-song performance by Sara Bareilles

Join Sing for Science for an intimate evening of conversation and music with Sara Bareilles and mathematician Michael Frame, author of The Geometry of Grief.

Together, we’ll explore loss, beauty, and the shared ways in which music and math can help us navigate grief. Drawing on Michael’s experience finding solace in fractals and Sara’s perspective as a songwriter, the conversation will consider how patterns, memory, and creativity shape our relationship to loss.

Hosted by Matt Whyte and recorded live for the Sing for Science podcast, the evening will also feature a clip from the forthcoming Guardian, Sandbox Films and Simons Foundation-produced short documentary The Geometry of Grief, adapted from Michael’s book of the same name.
