The Story Collider: Festival of the Unknown

Join The Story Collider at the Festival of the Unknown for five true, personal science stories about ventures into the unknown.

About The Story Collider

We believe that, now, more than ever, science is a part of everyone’s life. At The Story Collider, you’ll hear from scientists about all the times things went wrong, and occasionally right, in their labs, but you’ll also hear from people who haven’t had a formal connection to science since high school. We have physicists, comedians, neuroscientists, writers, actors, doctors, and many, many more telling their story. Some are heartbreaking; some are hilarious. They’re all true, and all, in one way or another, are about science.

About the Festival of the Unknown

It’s about time we confess our ignorance, celebrate the ambiguous, and salute what’s left to explore. Let’s pay tribute to our age of uncertainty at The Festival of the Unknown.

We’ve brought together a series of exciting shows to take us on a journey through the world of unknowns—from science to history to our personal identities. Join us this August 12-17 for insightful, important, and powerful talks, conversations, and comedy.

Expect special live presentations from the podcasts You’re the Expert, Flash Forward, and The Story Collider, new talks by The Atlantic’s Ed Yong, Ars Technica’s Annalee Newitz, the premier of a new live show by SNL’s Will Stephen, and much more. See all the events here.
