Fundamental physics in 2010.

Enlighten yourself with this lecture. I really enjoyed this, I think you might too.

Perimeter Institute brings great thinkers from around the world to Canada to share their ideas on a wide variety of interesting and topical subjects. These lectures and debates are aimed at non-specialists. No mathematical or scientific knowledge is necessary or assumed.Each event is explicitly tailored for the general public and everyone is welcome to attend.

Will big questions be answered when the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) switches on in 2007? What will scientists find? Where might the research lead? Nima Arkani-Hamed, a noted particle theorist, is a Professor of Physics at Harvard University. He investigates a number of mysteries and interactions in nature – puzzles that are likely to have experimental consequences in the next few years via particle accelerators, like the LHC, as well as cosmological observations.

Great 2 part talk about new thinking into biology.

Part 1

Part 2

Michio in yet another really interesting documentary on future civilisations. 3 part series. The quality isn’t great but the content is superb.

Part one – The intelligence revolution.

Part two – The biotech revolution.

Part three – The quantum revolution.

Time by Michio Kaku

I must have watched this about 8 times now, and each time I enjoy watching it. I’ve posted the videos in order, its a 4 part series by world renowned physicist Michio Kaku.

Part one – Daytime.

Part two – Lifetime

Part threee – Earth time.

Part four – Cosmic time.

Michio is always in these kind of documentaries, I hope enjoyed the above video and can leave some comments regarding the subject.
