  • Join Brian Greene, acclaimed physicist and author, on a wild ride into the mind of Albert Einstein, revealing deep aspects of the world that defy everyday experience. Using a visually rich canvas of animations, Greene leads you through all the startling conclusions of special relativity, from time travel to space warps to E = mc2. In the span of 2+ hours, this short master class will change your conception of reality.
    This is a mostly non-mathematical version of the WSU Master Class “Special Relativity with Brian Greene.” • WSU: Special Relativit...

      Okay, I didn't hear. I have bipolar disorder and when I'm depressed, learning more about relativity and quantum physics from Dr. Greene is one of my goto methods of getting out. That and cheese spread with sambal on bread and watered down banana juice. I just love that crap XD So if I don't feel like drinking or eating I eat and/or drink that and the taste makes me want more. Physics is just exhilarating. It takes little effort to sit down and absorb it and it just makes me happy and not even a depression can stop that from happening. Like my cheese spread and banana juice but for the brain.

    Greene as a teacher to a layman like me is breathtaking, phenomenal and rare to encounter. Almost if not entirely one of a kind. I say entirely because this gifted teacher just gave a lecture on a difficult subject to understand to a non-physicist and n0n-mathematician just like me: the conceptualization of Special Relativity. Nobody in my book has explained Special Reavity and what it means in practical terms the way Green has. Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!

      That is why he was not involved in group projects like Manhattan, and never be in proximity of others like he not became guide of any student for doctrate while working in universities. Many things quoted or attributed him to made image of him as genius, too much publicity is needed to conceal flaws.

He done his thesis under Minkowski who was already working on relativity with others like Poincare, Lorentz to fulfill ideas of Maxwell.

      The major world views hold axiology to advance questions of what is the highest value cross culturally, what does it mean to know something, snd what is change, and what is logic. The psycho linguistics in aspects of cultural differences suggest the Whorfian Hypothesis ststes that no two people have the same view of the real world view in the same way unless their linguistic backgrounds are similar. The Mustrician Hypothesis goes deeper to suggest that Man has to rationalize his existence and does so through linguistic orientations. Perceptions abstract information within human ranges potentiated by technology herein as astro physicists to chase light. Our puny brains have abstracted therein the s Standard model being a theory for s partical physics requiring CERN is the top of the arts and sciences. Here process for our world view defines technology.

BRAVO man 👏 this was extremely spot on, and I can’t believe anyone would dislike the video.

    Thank you Brian Greene. Thank you. That was so eloquently explained and in such an entertaining style that, at least IMHO, you leapfrogged past Sean Carroll, in terms of communicating your craft to we others (less gifted), and in doing so you help to enlighten us all both now and, hopefully, our prodigy sometime in the relative future -- either through our sharing of what we just learned or via osmosis through our DNA to theirs perhaps. And think of how much better we inhabitants of this planet might be if we all could see it, and everything else around us, through Brian Greene's eyes. Not necessarily his perspective mind you (pardon the pun) but through his eyes. I do have issues with his perspective and interpretations at times but there is no denying his incredible ability to pass-on to us these wonderous things such as this which is shared in the lecture above. Again, thank you Brian Greene. Poles and barns .... lol. Incredible.

    Profesor Green Thank you for the photon clock example. Been wondering for 50 years weather time dilation was wrong or just all the examples were wrong. You provided all the math in so simple a manner that I could understand clearly that I had missed nothing as you proved clearly the problem. The light photon in each clock moved the exact same distance. Since it takes the exact same amount of time for both photons to move the exact same distance there was no time dilation only one clock was not up to the conditions it was placed into, so it reported 1/5 the time but your math proved that the clock was not reporting an accurate measure. Both photons traveled the exact same distance :)
    Thank you so much for your awesome example and for doing the math in so clear and simple manner. Following up by showing this simple ratio was in fact in line with the fancy math let's me finally put this issue to rest. Clocks may fail but time is as consistent as photons are.
