The Fermi programme is an all-day event fostering cultural collaboration between the arts and sciences and is centred around LAT, one of the instruments used at the centre. ‘Blazing Quasi-Stellar Object’ was a multi-media performance bringing together the format of a lecture with visual accompaniments to look at the renaissance painter Tiziano’s ‘Bacco e Arianna,’ focussing on “the complex stratifications connecting this painting to the frontiers of multimessenger astrophysics.”
