Fiziki < 2025-2026 >
When we talk about fiziki , we aren't just talking about people who can solve differential equations in their sleep. We are talking about a specific cosmovision —a way of looking at a sunset and seeing Rayleigh scattering, yes, but also seeing the sheer improbability of a stable atmosphere.
We tend to separate the world into two camps: the (lyricists, humanists) and the Fiziki (physicists, hard science people). But lately, I’ve been wondering if that division is a lie we tell ourselves to feel safe. fiziki
I was reading Landau’s Course of Theoretical Physics the other day (humble brag, I know), and it struck me: The most beautiful solutions aren’t the ones that add the most details. They are the ones that strip reality down to its essence . When we talk about fiziki , we aren't
We throw the term around a lot. “I’m a physics guy.” “That’s just fiziki.” But every few years, I find myself sitting at 2 AM, staring at the ceiling, trying to truly grasp what fiziki (физики) means beyond the equations on a whiteboard. But lately, I’ve been wondering if that division
Maybe "Fiziki" aren't the opposite of humanists. Maybe we are just humanists who are too stubborn to admit that we are in love with the grammar of the universe rather than the vocabulary of the soul.
