"As you know, in January we will be having the second session of the Skype a Scientist program; this time we have a physicist whose job it to "study how strong interactions between many electrons can give rise to new exotic materials. A lot of unusual effects in these systems are really due to the inherently quantum-mechanical nature of the underlying particles".
As preparation for the talk, and during our Christmas holidays, I would like you to read and watch the following stuff, and make a recording / video in which you summarize it."
I shall be reading the articles and watching the video and trying my best to make some sense (in my head) out of them.
I am too much of a neophyte in quantum physics to really understand all of this quasi-particle mumbo-jumbo ... but I will give it a try.
So I went 'live' on YouTube to record my summary and impressions:
This was the second time I recorded it.
If you want to see something funny, try watching the first recording.
The first time I tried creating a YouTube video as a response to the task, I talked to camera for just over 21 minutes, and, while not perfect, I was happy with it.
But ... there was a problem with the sound ... it cut off for unknown reasons after 43 seconds.
It is still funny to watch! I swear it was amazing! Me talking about quantum physics and quasi-particles like a pro! LOL
