David Bohm
David Peat was a longtime friend and colleague of physicist-philosopher David Bohm. Their conversations on the foundations of quantum theory, philosophy, language, consciousness, the role of mathematics and art, lasted until Bohm’s death in 1992. The two physicists co-authored Science, Order and Creativity and Peat wrote the biography Infinite Potential: The Life and Times of David Bohm. He also co-wrote the script for the Bohm Infinite Potential documentary which is based on the biography. David Bohm’s work permeates everything we do here in Pari and, over the years, the Pari Center has held a number of major events that have focused on Bohm’s work. In the summer of 2021, we will feature a two-part Beyond Bohm online programme featuring scientists, philosophers, artists, indigenous people and those engaged in Bohmian dialogue, discussing Bohm’s legacy, his continuing influence, and how his work will be perceived in the future.
