\n\t\t\t\t\tIn April, UCF Celebrates the Arts<\/a>\r\n offered a multimedia performance that combined music, science and \r\nvisual art. Titled \u201cThe Warped Side of the Universe\u201d and held at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts<\/a>,\r\n the event featured work from composer Hans Zimmer, astrophysicist Kip \r\nThorne and visual effects artist Paul Franklin, who worked together on Interstellar<\/em>.\r\n Through music, videos, lectures, artistic renderings and computer \r\nsimulations, the trio produced a journey through warped space and time, \r\nincluding colliding black holes, exploding supernovas and the birth of \r\nour universe.<\/span>
