Here’s a blast from Counterculture Past… it’s Dr. Fiorella Terenzi, the super hot Italian astrophysicist musician who used to appear in Mondo 2000. Dr. Terenzi played cosmic symphonies using the sounds of the universe channeled through a synth while lecturing on astrophysics.
(Her Wikipedia entry lists her as being “known as an Apple Computer AppleMaster.” Holy shit, that sounds intimidating.)
Dr. Fiorella Terenzi is an Italian astrophysicist, author and musician who is best known for taking recordings of radio waves from galaxies and turning them into music. She received her doctorate from the University of Milan but is currently based in the United States.
Terenzi is known for her CD-ROM Invisible Universe, which combined music and poetry with astronomy lessons, and for a sexually charged 1998 book about science titled Heavenly Knowledge. She also released albums of her music. She is known as an Apple Computer AppleMaster, and has collaborated with the likes of Thomas Dolby, Timothy Leary, Herbie Hancock, and Ornette Coleman. She is currently teaching astronomy at Brevard Community College in Cocoa, FL.
