That is very clear and good presentation - thanks for that! Is there a website with such lectures (I assume it is a lecture from some course at uni)?

Julie was interested, as to simplify and present things so well, from out of a much more complex research, is a great aspiration of hers.

(That's the home site for the discussion you posted -- looks worth exploring.)

It would be a tremendous accomplishment!
Physicists say that anyone can explain world using math, but only a few can do it concisely and articulately with words.
