New Publication: Évolution(s). Science, art et littérature — A Unique Contribution from Nobuaki Fuji, Geophysicist at IPGP

The book Évolution(s). Science, art et littérature, published in May 2025 by Éditions Matériologiques, brings together contributions from 18 members of the Institut universitaire de France (IUF), spanning disciplines from the natural sciences and medicine to the humanities and the arts. Born from the 2023 IUF symposium on the theme “Évolution(s),” the volume explores transformations in life, language, technology, and imagination through a richly interdisciplinary lens.

Among the contributors is Nobuaki Fuji, geophysicist at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris (IPGP), who authored Chapter 18, titled “Évolution(s)” as seen by a geophysicist. Through a personal reflection blending Earth science and musical creation, this researcher offers a sensitive interpretation of evolution, inspired by the inner rhythms of our planet. His contribution stands out for its original form, illustrating how the tremors of the Earth can inspire artistic resonance.

This collective work underscores the vitality of interdisciplinary dialogue and exemplifies the IPGP’s engagement in fostering connections between science, culture, and society.
