Ingrid Daubechies is endlessly, irrepressibly, beautifully curious. She is a Belgian physicist and mathematician whose scientific achievements have rippled across society in all directions for the past 35 years. But, more than that, she"s a fierce champion of diversity and equality, in math and science, in women"s rights, in opportunity. To sit with Ingrid, her math and her life, is to illuminate our world and inspire us to imagine other worlds.  Origins Podcast Website Flourishing Commons Newsletter Show Notes:Depression (05:30)Krista Tippett On Being Podcast (07:15)Arthur Zajonc (10:10)Exponential thinking (14:20)Applied mathematics (19:00)Daubechies wavelet (20:00)The life of a researcher (25:00)Collaboration (27:00)Bell Labs (29:00)What is changing in the field of mathematics (32:00)Creating a community (34:00)Teaching: helping a person grow into the fullness of their imagination (36:00)Mathemalchemy (39:00)The Bridges Organization (40:00)Time to Break Free by Dominique Ehrmann (41:00)Mathemalchemy comic book (45:30)Bridging ties (47:00)Experiences at Burning Man (47:20)Pico Iyer (50:30)Museum of Mathematics (51:00)Flatiron Institute (51:30)Lighting Round (54:00)Book: The Broken Earth series by NK Jemisin; Digger by Ursula VernonPassion: Social justiceHeart sing: TemariScrewed up: Aspects of parentingFind Ingrid online:https://ece.duke.edu/faculty/ingrid-daubechiesThe Godmother of the Digital Image New York Times"Five-Cut Fridays’ five-song music playlist series  Ingrid’s playlist Logo artwork by Cristina Gonzalez Music by swelo on all streaming platforms or @swelomusic on social media
