Professor Brian Cox
The pop idol turned science idol, Professor Brian Cox is a British physicist and professor of particle physics at the University of Manchester.
Born in Oldham, he was the keyboard player in Manchester bands D:Ream and Dare, but he is best known for bringing physics and astronomy to a wider audience as the presenter of science programs for the BBC.
After performing his smash-hit show ‘Horizons’ to nearly half a million people across the world, he is back with his new world tour Emergence.
Brian has appeared in many landmark science programmes for BBC radio and television over the last 15 years, from the Peabody Award-winning Wonders of the Solar System to the world-wide hit series The Planets.
Professor Brian Cox said: “I’ve loved creating Emergence - it’s the most ambitious live show I’ve ever written. I’ve been very lucky to collaborate with a wonderful group of scientists, musicians, filmmakers and graphic artists to bring cosmology, biology, philosophy and history to the largest and most advanced LED screens available, with the best sound and lights I could find.
I hope the show is an all-encompassing experience, and I hope it leaves everyone, whether they love science or music or history, or simply contemplating the beauty of Nature, with something new to think about.”
