Serpents were the bass instruments of wind and military bands before the tuba took over. They are usually carved from wood with leather binding but making one from copper is probably a better idea if you are playing outdoors in Scotland. This example is also unusual in being made in mirror-image to most serpents, perhaps for a left-handed musician.University of Edinburgh, Musical Instrument Collection: MIMEd 191

Om kunstneren

A Symphony of Mathematics and Tradition

Born amidst the principled atmosphere of Philadelphia in 1941, Joseph Hooton Taylor Jr. began his journey not with a brush, but with the precise, rhythmic language of mathematics. His early life, steeped in Quaker traditions of compassion and tolerance, provided a moral canvas upon which a profound intellectual curiosity was painted. At Moorestown Friends School, the abstract beauty of numbers became his first medium, a foundational element that would later allow him to interpret the most subtle vibrations of the cosmos. This period of his life was characterized by a growing fascination with the unseen structures of reality, a pursuit that would eventually lead him far beyond the banks of the Delaware River into the very heart of the universe.

Deciphering the Celestial Pulse

As his academic journey progressed through Haverford College and onto the prestigious halls of Harvard University, Taylor began to refine his technique, moving from pure mathematics into the evocative realm of radio astronomy. Collaborating with minds like Alan Maxwell, he learned to listen to the rhythmic whispers of the stars, treating celestial signals as a complex, auditory composition. His work was an act of profound interpretation, capturing the fleeting pulses of energy that traverse the void. This era of his development saw him mastering the tools of radio astronomy, preparing him for a discovery that would forever alter our perception of gravitational truth. He approached the heavens not merely as a scientist, but as a listener attuned to the most delicate frequencies of existence.

The Masterpiece of the Binary Pulsar

The pinnacle of Taylor’s scientific artistry arrived in 1974, a moment of profound revelation achieved alongside Russell Alan Hulse. Utilizing the immense, dish-like canvas of the Arecibo radio telescope, they identified PSR B1913+16—the first binary pulsar ever discovered. This was no mere observation; it was the unveiling of a cosmic masterpiece, a pair of neutron stars locked in a gravitational waltz so precise that their orbital decay provided the long-sought evidence for gravitational radiation. This discovery, which earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1993, stands as a monumental achievement in human understanding, proving that the theoretical predictions of Einstein could be seen written in the very rhythm of the stars. Through his work, the abstract theories of gravitation were given a tangible, pulsing reality, leaving an indelible mark on the history of science and our place within the infinite expanse.
