i wish the video had CC -_-

@jorgefromthefuture It's just an amateur video.. Ed does not talk very clearly I also don't understood everything he said so it's a bit hard for me to put CC subtitles

He literally fills the slides with the words that he speaks. The most horrible way to give a presentation.

I have never seen anyone do this except first year undergrads or high school kids.

@boogiebuddy01 I guess because the Institute of Physics was the sole copyright holder for this talk. And sometimes new discoveries are being presented, and top scientists don't want their research to be leaked immediately with no profits

Very cool, too bad on the video quality, but nonetheless enjoyable to listen to Prof. Witten. Great upload.

@thraxman Thanks. Unfortunately cameras were not allowed in the conference room, so cellphone recording was the only solution.
