Fiorella Terenzi

Dr. Fiorella Terenzi is an Italian astrophysicist, author and musician who is best known for taking recordings of radio waves from galaxies and turning them into music.

Once described by talk show host Dennis Miller as "a cross between Carl Sagan and Madonna", Terenzi is known for her CD-ROM Invisible Universe which combines music and poetry with astronomy lessons, and for a sexually charged book about science entitled Heavenly Knowledge. She has also released a number of albums of her music.

She is known as an Apple Computer "AppleMaster", and has collaborated with the likes of Thomas Dolby, Timothy Leary, Herbie Hancock and Ornette Coleman.

When she isn't performing, she teaches astronomy in the Los Angeles area.
