Stephenson’s work often explores complex themes ranging from cryptography and currency to orbital mechanics and history. With ‘LD: Heavy Water,’ the author continues his tradition of blending rigorous technical detail with expansive storytelling. This live appearance offers a rare opportunity for the public to hear directly from Stephenson about the inspirations behind his new work and his thoughts on the current trajectory of global technological development.
