After all, science involves observing phenomena and finding systematic rules that account for the observed phenomena. Moreover, it requires the immutable, and often impenetrable rules of higher mathematics. There seems to be no room for creativity or faith, except perhaps faith in the power of mathematics. One of the purposes of these notes is to convince you that physics and art are not as far removed from each other as many believe. There are, of course, crucial differences, which we will emphasize, but there are similarities as well.
Good art requires observation, talent and creativity.
The result is often beautiful and moving, but to have value it must also be somehow relevant to the observer, otherwise it has no meaning. All of the above apply to the physical sciences as well. The fact that science requires observation, talent and relevance is perhaps self evident. This theory is relevant if it can be ultimately use to make a better microwave or, at a more elementary level, if it can be used to predict and explain new phenomena. In our opinion, the answer is yes.
