Four meetings with Ignazio Licata, a theoretical physicist, scientific director of ISEM (Institute for Scientific Methodology) in Palermo and teacher of "Complexity Theory" at the University of Messina, and contributor to "Il Sole 24 Ore" and director of '"Electronic Journal of Theoretical Physics." He was awarded with the Prize for Science Venus (2008) and the Targa Pirandello (2010). A student of David Bohm, he worked on models of pre-space non-local and quantized. He is currently working in the foundations of quantum theory, field theory, cognitive relationships between physics and computation. Has recently proposed the archaic theory of the universe, which describes the quantum phase "before" the big bang. Among his books in Italian: Observing the sphinx.
