Unique piece realized for the main hall of an important Italian society. This panel, composed of Mars stone and inlaid with polychrome terracotta and metal, reproduces the result of a numerical simulation of astrophysics. The base surface represents the disk of our galaxy, which contains millions of stars that, at the end of their cycle of life, explode as supernova.
The different colors indicate the regions of the galaxy in which ejected elements of the supernovas are concentrated on such elements are oxygen, iron, carbon and other fundamental ingredients for the formation of the planets and of the life.
The equations carved on the pentagram at the border of the panel are the physical equations which describe the processes of formation of the stars. On the galactic pentagram we cannot find notes, but the equations that play the music of the evolution of the Universe.
Alpha and Omega. The equations therefore represent the incipit from which the stars are originated; instead the central simulation describes what happens after their death, at the moment of their explosion as supernova, injecting in the space the fundamental elements for the formation of life. The evolution continues, and the music that emerges from it is the vibration of eternity.
