- On May 11 & 12, 2018, Caltech and PMA presented Feynman 100, a celebration of Richard Feynman’s life & legacy on the occasion of his 100th birthday.
The May 11 evening event celebrated his broad contributions to science and society as a scientist, teacher, and curious character. Speakers included: Robbert Dijkgraaf, Freeman Dyson, Joan Feynman, Michelle Feynman, Janna Levin, John Preskill and Kip Thorne, Tom Rosenbaum and Leonard Susskind. The evening also included two special video presentations featuring Bill Gates and words from Richard Feynman.

Susskind himself is also a most brilliant expositor of physics. He is an insightful and groundbreaking physicist with exceptional abilities in communicating fundamental ideas, and making them effortlessly accessible (amazingly enough, often in rigorous ways) to people of all backgrounds.
Summary:
- A close friend of Richard Feynman, even with their 22 year age difference, they seemed to have such similar personalities
- Dick helped reaffirm Susskind's own Physical Intuition as a strength. He is now currently one of the trendsetters in the world
of Physics, especially as a String Theorist.
- Dick's Scientific Syle was incredibly simple and profound. In many cases it was so simple in fact that it perhaps humiliated
his colleagues who believed the problems he was solving were supposed to be difficult - but he made it look so easy.
- One similarity between them is that they both shared a big ego and sothey liked to to boast about themselves and Feynman
in particular liked to boast about his tricks.
- Dyson, Schwinger, Tomonaga , and Feynman laid the foundations of QFT
- 3:40 Feynman's Diagrammatic Approach to QFT
- 8:40 Fun Fact: Feynman's Diagrams were created when Susskind was 9
- 9:00 Freeman Dyson's Contribution to QFT
- 10:40 Feynman vs. Superfluidity: An Exercise of Physical Intuition
- 17:30 Feynman vs. Particle Accelerators: A profound simplification of high energy physics
- 21:10 Another Physicist...
- 22:48 "Simplicity, Honesty, Grounded Thinking..."
All love and respect to Leonard susskind..💓
Ali m Ibrahem انت من وين ؟
Love Leonard he's a wonderful teacher too, all respect to him as well as Feynman
Susskind is such a joy to listen to lol
nice thick voice
CZcams’s algos are broken. They just now showed me this video which, based on my already watching and upvoting hundreds (thousands?) of hours of Susskind and Feynman vids, should have been top of my feed the moment it was released.
Thank you as always, Professor Susskind for the talk!
Not unlike Dyson and Feynman himself, Susskind, too, is a marvelous storyteller.
Two of my favourite people
Thank you, Leonard Susskind, for this talk! =)
Superb! What a treat to listen in as if I was present. He's a very good presenter/speaker.
This came to me just last night before coming across the video: "It's with the action(s) that the boundaries appear." I only studied finance and some computer science on an "official" level.. I'm so so interested lately in physics and electromagnetism and see a lot of interrelation among the four (4) fields.
Leo, thank you for that. He would have appreciated your generous spirit.
Thank you Dr. Susskind.
Thank you CZcams for letting me know about this great men.
Wonderful talk, Thank-you
Great Lenny, great lecture about Feynman and the way he understood physics
Oh, Freeman Dyson gave a talk recently? I'm watching that next.
Like Susskind very much, my intuition will be just fine swinging left and right through this talk
Leonard Susskind acts exactly like Richard Feynman during his lectures.
Absolutely love this video!
great lecture indeed
Both are great men and physicists.
I'm watching this because of Feynman, which I deeply admire and respect (and the same goes to Leonard Susskind) -- but man, this title is weird... I'm sure Feynman would've loved it, though!
It's weird to you. To many, Dick is not associated to the penis but rather to the nickname of Richard.
0:30 "He touched me very very deeply".
The problem is how we are made to understand something...when you think of one single atom, you draw a damn circle and call it an "atom." The way we should think is that space is an ever expanding fractal, each particle closely related to its surroundings. I presume we will get this right as soon as we program our baby universe within the confines of (perhaps quantum) computer memory. Only then will we realize that Pong is the ultimate game. Some of us are stuck on Pac Man though and eat our way through life. We're all playing this game so don't worry, you can't break it. It is indestructible.

@@Rayquesto ?
What a treat!
Thanx Susskind!
Not only a great scientist but a even greater writer.
This was *brilliant* and if physicists take the sentiments expressed here to heart, really put them into practice -- it'll do a lot to advance physics!
Dick used trick. It's extremely effective.
May God bless you sir
Didn't know Mike Ermantraut was friends with Feynman!
At the end of Lenny's portrayal of Feynman, I thought he was talking about Maldacena, my hero.
Here is a guy that I am pretty sure is a genius....
Talking about another guy that is also a genius... Without any hint of envy... That's cool
Nice, thank you
Thanks professor susskind
Looks like the KISS Method is / was employed by these fellows ... Keep It Sweet & Simple (KISS) .... interesting to note the intersection of philosophy / curiosity / mathematical rigour / scientific rigour / and the fun of phenomena and discovery .... my sense is that Albert Einstein would appreciate these folks and their work.
Superb
I'm sorry, I thought this was a totally different video, I'll see myself out.
hahahaha, I did not laugh like that for a long time.
The title must’ve touched you really deeply
@@lasaromorell3642 I see what you did there
Same happened to me. Fixed by searching 'South Park c*ck magic'
@@petermatthiesen8288 lol.....
thought this was Mike from breaking bad in the thumbnail
I thought that guy from breaking bad was susskind for half a sec ;)
Now I cant unsee that...

12:40 - think about the phenomena directly and you will see it in your mind "The Feynman Legacy."
Came for the thumbnail, stayed for the plot
Brilliant
the title made me expect something different
That's another secret lecture, called Dick's Prick.
The actor Richard Burton always resented it when someone called him Dick. Perhaps because he was a well known womaniser.
When he was a guest on a Dick Cavett show (or should I say “Richard Cavett”?), Burton told of an incident when he was staying in Humphrey Bogart's home.
The director John Huston came to visit, saw Burton and said “Hi, Dick”. Burton responded, “Don’t call me that! My name is Richard”.
To which Huston replied, “Sure, Dick”.
ah! the internet eh.
I was hoping Fanny would be up next, Fanny was just as smart as Dick.
Good title
Was expecting different content based on the title... Wasn't disappointed, though.
My favorite physics teacher:)
Do you mean Feynman or Susskind? Both were / are great physics teachers.
100 fine
Fine man Feynman was. errm.
Mike kirock actually no. feyman cheated on his wives and used to bang his own undergrad students, which because of the one sided position of power he had over them (grades) would get you fired from colleges today. fine physicist tho.
@@meesalikeu fuck off douchebag
@@meesalikeu you're just jealous that you're not the bad ass pimp that he was.
@@meesalikeu no,he did not cheat on his wives.
meesalikeu as far as i know, the relationships he had with undergrads was right after los alamos, and years after his first wife had just died. he was in his twenties im pretty sure. he got some chick pregnant i think. he later did learn some non-PC methods of picking up women, but by modern day standards. he literally learned them from a pimp and a madam. kinda funny imo lol. idk. hard to judge a guy who grew up in a different society
Hmmm, I wonder why Gell Mann didn't come.
if he had, we would have heard him quack when susskind said Parton
@@pokeman123451 Don't you mean quark when Susskind said parton?
Nani gopal Saha Don’t you mean Feynman’s Neurotic Anti-twin when you say Gell-man?
jk lol both are brilliant
@@pokeman123451 😁😃
PikPobedy too many great physicists dying.. Gell-Man, Dyson, and others. RIP
the overly precious mathematics...RIP sir
To use a modern emote/meme = POGGERS
Susskind gives shoutout to Mumbo Jumbo
Vale Lenny Susskind.
This was a good presentation, even though I came for something else.
Freeman Dyson..the mage...the white wizard
great video, but the title disturbs me at the beginning
It's easy to see he loves the 'D'
unfortunately no caltech prof friends on facebook to share thoughts just managing .. will be nicee.
Facebook might be differnet or was it a different prof network older time :)
Having nice pizza after previous comments like a virtual presence in lecutre :)
Imagine Feynman is sitting in the hall....
I thought this was Mike from Breaking Bad😂
When U get as old as us U tend to bury a lot of your friends..
Dr Feynman could have an ego when someone is as good as Feynman how could he not know it he must have had a difficult time living with stupid people I adore Feynman!
He worked at Caltech. He probably had very little contact with stupid people, day to day. Even the physicists would have been the best physicists
@@edwardjones2202He was fortunate to live in a period where social media and easy methods of communication does not exist.
Is there conflict in Between Relativity and Quantum Mechanics?Maybe experts can answer
Just general relativity
Incompatibility between GR and QM. Attempt at the quantisation of the gravitational field, as yet unsuccessful. Possibly a semiclassical theory of gravity or F(r) gravity.
I thought Erhmantraut was giving a speech 💀
Physics-Mathematics-Philosophy, that was Feynman's way of thinking simply, according to Leonardo. It enabled Feynman to discover QFT, QC (quantum computing) and frictionless Helium, making Feynman unique and essential. The lesson we take away, is to think simple, for nature is simple.
Just as phase transition transforms non-life matter into life and consciousness (due to self-organizing and self-simulating property of matter), similarly the quantum field self-simulates intelligent conscious 'observer' collapsing the field into fine tuned particles (matter), that in turn creates life with perfection and with probability ONE
I knew his brother David...
at first glance this is a very weird title
macro quantum efect in liquid hellium phenomenas
parton model was a butifull theory also but Physics is still natural science
as Feynman fills its
but Nature is strict
most of the time :)
nigga why you reply to yourself 4 times
Mike.
Frequency is a cord of seperation. What are anatomical structures. Energy of concentration for the seperate worlds. World coordinates are always assymetric. Symmetry we can see only on a different coordinates never on same coordinates. Because the definition of coordinates is asymptotic. Essentially if you think of dimensionality. Usually there is only one dimension and the change is viewed as higher dimensions. Zero dimension the connection points. Binary differential or integral as a way of rearrangement. What is normal zero one zero one. What is modulation zero zero one one. What is demodulation one one zero zero. What are functions. Assembly of continuum. What is rational zero one one zero. What is irrational one zero zero one. What is transcendental. Mix of one zero zero one to one zero zero one. You can never mix. Why you can't mix because you can never get a frequency of separation. Always a twelfth overtone is a higher dimension. The reason for seperation. Or gaps. Potholes are twelve cross twelve. Abyss twelve power twelve. The reason to hold.

First comes the number theory, where one needs to learn what a number is at it's fundamental level. From there on, every other discipline of science is just some kind of mapping algorithm, all those different mathematical frameworks will have no value for one, when the number theory wasn't understood.
at its
You can't be really unique, you are either unique or you're not unique. Unique means one-of-kind. All one-of-a-kinds are unique.
The use of the word "unique" is evolving. It used to mean what you say, but nowadays it's used in a wider sense even by savants, as you see in this video! Similarly, the words "as" and "like" used to be quite different, but now "like" is used everywhere that "as" used to be the only one of those two words that was permissible. (The New York Times acceded to this new usage a number of years ago--I remember the moment clearly!) I am very sorry to have lost the old meaning of "unique"--it was wonderfully precise, but sic transit gloria mundi, knowumsayin'?
I love what Feynman said about this. "People get all upset and say things like 'Johnny graduated from college and still can't spell the word friend'' Well, change the spelling of the word friend and focus on what Johnny is saying."
What you said wasn't meaningful,, but if it had been, anyone who pointed out the two grammatical errors you made and ignored what you were saying would sound as pathetic as you do. In your comment "One of kind" is missing the "a' and "All one-of a -kinds..." is an incomplete sentence as it ends with a dangling participle.
Oh, no, Susskind made a mistake (according this years language rules) there goes the neighborhood.
I'm an English lit' major, the fundamental rule of English language is that common usage dictates correctness.
Anyone who puts grammatical correctness (an arbitrary, living set of rules) above content is obtuse.
You can suck at calculus and no one ever has to know but a person who doesn't easily grasp the technicalities of grammar can't hide it and assholes continually love to take shots at them. e.e Cummings didn't use proper grammar, neither does a lot of hip hop but it conveys more in a sentence than it ever would using the Queen's English.
@@eliotfintushel1258 Yes, language is a living thing, and I do admire beautiful writing and speaking but communication is the priority, the letters are just a clutzy translation, still people are often happy to ignore what you were saying just to tell you should have said "nauseated, not nauseous." It make me violent.
From 4:34 the audience in the right are behaving a bit weird they are stuttering.i don't know if that's processing problem
Anyone else have trouble hearing "phenomena" without imagining some muppets singing "doot doooo doo doodoo"?
he talks like mike from breaking bad
South Park episode
Say "Dick" again.
hail richard feynman king of physics and my heart
Very difficult audience.
Leonard,
There are no degrees of unique
"unique" means being the only one of its kind; unlike anything else
Watch from 10min 55sec to 11:05 😅😅😅😅😅😅 and thank me later.
Susskind leaves out Freeman Dyson on his QED authors. OUCH
I like his introductory books (Susskind's) but I thought he was just an amateur himself 😂
Oh no. He's top of the game haha
Good old times when the word Dick didn’t mean, well, dick…
BELL!! Lenny always leaves out Bell and his eloquint inequality that spells out the most confusing aspect of quantum mechanics. Is Lenny hitting the "sauce" again? And again?
I've seen him mention Bell many times in his lectures. This was a talk about Feynman's approach, not the overall history of QM, QC, etc.
tittle is so weird xd
LAST TIME WAS A TED COMMENT DEVOTED TO DICK ... OKAY I HOPE THEY STOP TED CONFERENCES ALL TOGETHER SINCE HE JUST SHOULDN'T SEND IT NO WAY NO HOW NOT EVEN FUNNY JUST STOP
#Spam
How many times is he going say "dick" in reference to Feynman ? Old man repeating ad infinitum.
I fear feynman may have been a FIG-JAM kind of person.
Most people find that wrong! But in fact, it's natural and you'll understand it more clearly if you into Science or have related science background; Science is highly competitive and highly delicate field.
@@MDExplainsx86 My background is in physics.3:05 shows it to be correct.Feynman liked to tell you ho he solved a problem. He had psychological need to advertise his successes.A little Humility in such cases goes a long way!
@@MDExplainsx86 Do tell me why you think it is natural I have a Physics degree, None of my lecturers were lumbered with large egos that they had to keep inflated
he made one mistake, Helium is not a molecule, it is a noble gas and does not form molecule.
Nobody cares if he made a mistake in an informal presentation. Making mistake on stage happens all the time.
Not a mistake - in its liquid form helium has a molecular structure see :-academic.oup.com/ptp/article-pdf/6/4/458/5418370/6-4-458.pdf
Did you miss him say liquid Helium? Liquid Helium most definitely forms a molecule.
When i hear this guy talk about Feynman he always places such a focus on "ego" that is anomalous to my experience of the man and i wonder why he'd consider himself a "friend" and yet be so jealous of the man's incredible talent and brilliance as a teacher. Disturbing and i'd rather hear somebody else's version.
His use of ego is not in a demeaning way. Although ego is often thought to be a negative trait, it is something that every person has and can be utilized to great effect. This is what I believe Susskind is saying: Feynman is as well known and revered as he is because he used his ego to fuel his passion. It made him charismatic and original.
I suspect Feynman didn't have a hang up with the word like you. He probably loved to joke about it and was able to laugh at himself, unlike some.
Susskind is becoming more and more grouchy with age as mathematical physics of today left him in the dust a while ago.
🙄
Suskind is not a well organized lecturer. In fact he jumps across the board creating confusion. Very bad sketcher and illustrator
