Everything we do is music | Milton Mermikides | TEDxGroningen

When you grow up as a kid feeling disconnected by society, connecting with music and science can be a magical discovery. What would happen if we could use science to find music in the universe?

Milton Mermikides is a composer, guitarist and educator in a wide range of musical styles and has collaborated with artists as diverse as Pat Martino, John Williams, Tim Minchin, The Swingle Singers, Steve Winwood and Brian Eno. Son of a CERN nuclear physicist, he was raised with an enthusiasm for both the arts and sciences, an eclecticism which has been maintained throughout his teaching, research and creative career. He is a graduate of the London School of Economics (BSc), Berklee College of Music (BMus) and the University of Surrey (PhD). Milton is Senior Lecturer of Music at the University of Surrey and Professor of Guitar at the Royal College of Music, and lives in London with his wife, the guitarist Bridget Mermikides, his daughter Chloe and his annoying cat, Monkey.
