Video Lectures, where?

[Maxwells Demon]

Hi Everyone..

I want to learn some physics and I can't wait for school to teach me..

Do you know any good places on the Internet that got video lectures, or just informative movies??

Please post all the links you know :)

Thanks

There are some others, too. One of the members of PF has compiled a list of links somewhere, but I'm not able to recall that site right now.

Those are the two largest collections of video lectures. There are a lot of Feynman video lectures on introductory phyiscs out there, especially on Google Video, YouTube or LiveVideo.

Here is the nicest collection of links I know of, thanks to Serkan Cabi. You can never get through them in your lifetime, so you'll have to be selective.

In spite of the links to the PF-blog from the PF-homepage, it seems the PF-blog doesn't get much attention from those already here at PF.

Hi, I'm new (as a member) here and don't know if any of you are interested but I came across this really good science video site the other day and just thought I'd pass it on :)

It's run by a group called the Vega Science Trust and they seem to have videos about all sorts of science topics but I was mainly there to watch the stuff by Richard Feynman (http://www.vega.org.uk/video/subseries/8) and Harry Kroto (http://www.vega.org.uk/video/subseries/16)

The main site is at http://www.vega.org.uk - enjoy

Turbo-1,

You seem to have a good knowledge of Cabi's huge video link collection. Could you suggest any good order in which they may be tackled? Thanks.

MoluYou'll have to decide for yourself what suits your interests. There is too much there to choose from and everybody will have a different idea of how to put together a schedule. Here is one presentation that I have watched many times - Michael Strauss' presentation of SDSS findings on quasars (scroll down to November 2) - VERY interesting.
