An interview I did with Niklas Opf on my paper about the absence of events on closed causal curves in the ETH approach to quantum theory.
Public talks
A friend asked me to give a talk at their club in Melbourne.
When the EHT picture came out I was marveled by the fact that the 3 most significant developments in fundamental physics in the last decade are. “A Bump, a Wiggle and a Blob” so I decided to talk about that

Science Slams

Science Slam SO36: A Walk on the Beach of the Dirac Sea (ENG)
Not exactly a Science Slam, but close enough. When I was working at my beach office Adam Ford came by to do an interview. It was a bit of an experiment where I tried to explain the basic ideas behind the new theory I’m working on. It was more or less a one-take so be gentle and take it with a grain of salt. As quite some time has passed since I wouldn’t a 100% support the interpretation of the theory which I give in the video. My current understanding has advanced but through that my interpretation got more blurry again, because I am not sure there isn’t a better way to look at all of this. Anyway, it is a fun little video so enjoy.
