TEDxCaltech - Leonard Susskind - Richard Feynman
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
Leonard Susskind is the Felix Bloch Professor of Physics at Stanford University. His research interests include string theory, quantum field theory, quantum statistical mechanics, and quantum cosmology. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and, since 2009, has been serving as Director of the Stanford Institute for Theoretical Physics. About TEDx, x = independently organized event: In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.) On January 14, 2011, Caltech hosted TEDxCaltech, an exciting one-day event to honor Richard Feynman, Nobel Laureate, Caltech physics professor, iconoclast, visionary, and all-around "curious character."

Sat there for 15 minutes and kept millions fully entertained throughout it without using a single slide or experiment.
You surely must be a Great great grandfather Mr. Susskind :)
(pun intended) -
love it: Feynman was awe-some .....
-
so this has nothing to do with Breaking Bad?
-
If you are scientifically illiterate you can't answer any question your child has about nature.

now this is the Leonard Susskind which I like to listen. talking sense with hummer . something I can not do,because I always am serious. professor may be interested to know 1 - atom do not touch each other except in absolute zero temperature. not near, but absolute zero. at absolute zero they are no longer an atom. 2 - there are not lots of bits inside proton jiggling. Richard Feynman was using current model for his example. the greatest tribute to Richard Feynman is I was to give him the information on matter and space if I went to USA. I came to England and mankind stile do not know structure of mater or evolution of space bodies. MG1

That was a adorable. Thanks.
-
Suskind for president...
-
3:48 - Michael J. Fox??
-
awesome , amazing, loving, brilliant both FEYNMAN & LEO SUSSKIND
-
Susskind, TEDxTalk, Feynman... whoever came up with the genius combo?
-
This was fun to watch. My take is get the bologna out of the way , find the ham.
-
Black holes don't exist
-
8.47, you do not need a good relationship with your father to be the best in physics.
-
lol hearing leonard talk about philosophy really illustrates the childish mentality some scientists take with respect to philosophy because it offers a different perspective than science, and feel threatened by it. Id like to see Leonard or better yet Feynman go up against the likes of Chomsky or Chalmers on this issue.
-
what a wonderful world we live in brothers, you have to apologize to your audience if you think you got inspired by your father....
-
He talks and even sounds like Feynman! Wow
-
Susskind is such a badass. Great talk!
-
-Richard Feynman was very complex man. He was a man of many many parts. He was of course foremost a very very very great scientist--- Leonard Susskind said in this video.
I want to know neural network of Feynman. It is very very very interesting. -
Any physicist who thinks physics needs a layer of baloney or pretense to be revered probably has identity issues. If anything Quantum Physics needs to demystified so more people have access to it.
