Young, a nuclear physicist turned audio alchemist. After nearly two decades in quantum physics, he realized the theories he’d devoted his life to didn’t hold up in the real world. That shift led him into alchemy, music, and eventually his book A Fool’s Wisdom: Science Conspiracies and The Secret Art of Alchemy.We get into how he walked away from the conventional scientific system, what he uncovered about the stories behind quantum theory, and why merging science with spirit changed not only his perspective but also the way he creates music.You’ll Learn:The reason Steve walked away from two decades in quantum physicsWhat happens when scientific theories never show up in real lifeThe surprising link between ancient alchemy and modern creativityWhy the word “quantum” gets misused as a catchall for the mysticalThe damage of removing soul and spirit from scienceWhat it feels like to make music through the lens of alchemyHow everyday acts like cooking and cleaning are forms of alchemyThe shift Steve experienced moving his music from 440 Hz to 432 HzThe role of the “fool” archetype in finding wisdom and truthTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[06:47] Questioning the reality of atoms, molecules, and quantum theory[12:15] Discovering alchemy as a science that merges spirit and matter[17:36] Turning music into audio alchemy and creative transformation[21:54] Everyday alchemy in the kitchen and daily life[27:06] Shifting from entertainment to healing through music in 432 Hz[34:22] The influence of physics training on his music and book[37:12] Ayahuasca experiences that opened awareness of soul and spirit[41:18] Why he wrote A Fool’s Wisdom and stepping outside academia[50:02] The archetype of the fool and its role in transformationResources Mentioned:This is Hedflux Playlist | SpotifyA Fool's Wisdom by Steven Young | Book or AudiobookMichio Kaku | WebsiteMorphic Resonance by Rupert Sheldrake | WebsiteThe Upside Down Series by Mark Gober | WebsiteRobert Fludd | BookWant to start a podcast like this one?
