kaini Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 feast your 1/8" black holes within your swivelly balls on these: the inconceivable nature of nature http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AU8PId_6xec fire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITpDrdtGAmo this one BLOWS MY MIND. stored sunlight/heat, just... woah an abstraction of a hydroelectric plant: bigger is electricity http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhh32JYkQPk electron pipes... woah the train http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7h4OtFDnYE feynman's last big project before he died was to do with a very simple engineering failure on the O-rings on the challenger mirrors http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msN87y-iEx0 why do mirrors seem to switch left and right, but not top and bottom? there's loooads more on youtubes no-one can explain things with such joy and enthusiasm and never-ending fascination and goddamn fucking wonder as feynman. a rare thing, a man who never stopped questing and exploring - he saw every question as merely the birth of another three! watch him explain stuff, he fucking loves it.

Guest Thaddeusz Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 it's a great joy to see someone find so rich analogies and metaphors for these things. i like these clips a lot. i also recommend getting a feynman diagram tattooed on your forearm.
