In 1931 the brash and brilliant physicist Wolfgang Pauli approached the world-renowned analyst Carl Jung for help. Pauli’s neurosis had wreaked such havoc with his psyche that when Jung first saw him, he felt as if the “wind had blown over from the lunatic asylum”. In their discussions they struck sparks off each other and in the end not one but both of them were changed.
Synchronicity is about psychology, physics, alchemy and the extraordinary things that can happen when two brilliant minds meet. Thought provoking, sometimes deep, sometimes moving - it is about how a meeting of the minds can change the world.
Originally developed in collaboration with Break A Leg Productions.
Writer Arthur I. Miller’s 137: Jung, Pauli, and the Pursuit of a Scientific Obsession is the inspiration for Synchronicity. He is the author of Einstein, Picasso, nominated for the Pulitzer Prize; Empire of the Stars, shortlisted for the Aventis Prize; and The Artist in the Machine.
