David Albert, Time and Chance: The Direction of Time

[@david-joeklotz9558]

I listen to or watch all Prof Albert lectures or discussions. He is brilliant. Recommend this

[@brickchains1]

it's true, the joint interviews with tim maudlin and barry loewer are really incredible too

[@misterkriskooper]

If youre wondering the thumbnail is from alberts debut album Feel My Inflation

[@adamsasso1]

That’s friggin funny!

[@timewalker6654]

Lol

[@CristiStoica1]

The talk ends when Albert says "let me start...", so I think the most important part is missing, and you only know this after over one hour

[@Joaocruz30]

Its only the end that's cut but someone commented where you can find the whole discourse

[@steveseamans9048]

Where’s the end? 😢

[@philp521]

Surf Rock Philosophy of Physics is my new favorite genre of music. The tremolo and reverb are excellent.

[@Joaocruz30]

Thanks for such a review. I feel that I'm at Cannes film Festival and you help me by your wit suggestions not to waste my time in these pseudo-intellectual bs. Once again I'm sincerely grateful for sagacity or sarcastic behaviour

[@philp521]

@@Joaocruz30 Oh, no, it’s a fascinating talk. I recommend it strongly. Albert teaches at Columbia University for a reason. It’s just that the audio sounds like it’s been drenched in tremolo and reverb at times, like a surf rock guitar tone would be, which I found funny.

It could have been even better if they added phaser and delay/pitch shifter in the final mix!

[@trudysteinfeld6594]

Specifically when did this excellent lecture take place? Was it at the University of Oregon? Where are the final few minutes?

[@steveseamans9048]

Too bad about the end. Any complete recording available. Or a transcript?

[@ccarson]

That thumbnail phwoah

[@johnkechagais7096]

Though the billiard balls colliding seems the same backwards or forwards they are not the same, for some of that collision energy results in heating the balls. That heat is after the event. its in that loss of the controlled physical that time progresses and entropy increase.

[@limi1056]

Remarkable topic and lecture. Why is the end missing?

[@rolloburgess8732]

Is the rest of this available anywhere? It is missing the punchline!

[@oldtom541]

Great lecture, now going to read his book because the punchline is missing!

[@xavieraguerrevere9716]

sooner or later the spacetron will rise into the knowledge of physics

[@jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii]

Starts at 4:00.

[@RussellCatchpole]

Great lecture let down by terrible sound, irritating dangly wires (nobody heard of radio mics?), and a missing end.
