Ik twijfel, dus ik ben: Edith Van Dyck

28 February 2022 |

In 'Ik twijfel, dus ik ben' nodigt het GUM wetenschappers uit om in hun hoofd te laten kijken. Ze laten zich hierbij leiden door het 'Rad van de Twijfel'.

In deze aflevering is Edith Van Dyck aan het woord. Zij is onderzoeker aan IPEM, het Onderzoeksinstituut in de Experimentele Musicologie van de Universiteit Gent. Ze vertelt met passie over de grote gelijkenissen tussen wetenschappers en kunstenaars, over haar liefde voor de taal van muziek en dans en over dat het ok het is om niet alles te weten in je vakgebied.
