Thought

Here are a series of six videos by The Open University called 60-Second Adventures in Thought.

Of the six, I am most familiar with the Grandfather Paradox, which a common science fiction theme. I had never before came across the Chinese Room and the Infinite Hotel. I am not even sure that I get the latter.

Archilles and the Tortoise

The Grandfather Paradox

The Chinese Room

Hilbert’s Infinite Hotel

The Twin Paradox

Schrödinger’s Cat

You can find more similar short educational videos at The Open University’s YouTube channel. Have fun!
