Read. Watch. Listen. introduces you to the personal side of our faculty, staff and alumni. Participants are asked to answer three simple questions about their reading, viewing and listening habits – what one book or newspaper/magazine article is grabbing your attention; what one movie or television show has caught your eye; and what album/song, podcast or radio show are you lending an ear to.
Physics & Astronomy professor Jan Cami is an Associate Director for Western’s Institute for Earth and Space Exploration.
Today, he takes a turn on Read. Watch. Listen.

Read.
Le Petit Prince (The Little Prince) by Antoine de Saint-Exupery. It’s space travel avant la lettre, and shows that love is universal. Also Tintin Destination Moon, of course – an important source of inspiration.
Watch.
Back to the Future. Why travel in space if you can also travel in time? And get a cool and green car with it.
Listen.
Eric Clapton. Joe Bonamassa. Keb’ Mo. And many other great blues guitar players. Blues transcends all space and time.
