    He doesn't do podcasts, and his interviews are rare, as you can see by googling him on KZread. He did recently appear on Brian Green's World Science Festival, along with 3 other top level String Theorists. It's an amazing talk actually, go check it out. From what i see, he is also a bit 'embarassed' about his status as a legend in physics. When people prompt him to speculate, he refuses, and at least attempts to be super careful about what he says about physics. He is, however, adamant that string theory is the onyl real candidate right now for a final theory

    Amazing. Even I could follow it LOL! But more seriously, what strikes me is the that the ancient idea that existence manifests using (I won't say "governed by") the mathematics of harmonic resonance just seems like it keeps re-emerging again and again among the most advanced thinkers in many different historical eras. As a musician, I want to heed Witten's warnings that the beauties and harmonies of string theory are not the same as in music. Even with his succinct explanation, I know that what I can grasp is still only at the very most simplistic edge of the universe he's talking about. People think science is all dry and logical but that's not at all true. Physicists gape in awe at the profound mysteries of the universe just the same as the rest of us. It must be exciting for Mr Witten to work at the boundary where logic and math confront those as-yet inexplicable mysteries.

    hes the closest mind to AI we ever had, or will have for awhile i feel. his mind seems so robotic, so beautiful in a sense but also kind of frightening how much ahead his brain is from everyone else. I truly believe that people who criticize string theory, truly cant see the grand scheme of it clearly. he might be 500 years too early to be recognized, if string theory ever get proven correct or figured out, then society as a whole needs to have experimentation with it which would cause insurmountable energy. We'd need to be a type 3 civ at that point which is thousands of years if not 10's of thousand away.

    Just came across this interview! Strange! i had a dream a number of years back. It consisted of just one continuous note/ tone, it was the most incredible sound /experience.it was as if everything in the universe was contained in that note. it was a whole orchestra playing the most beautiful music, nothing else existed it was as if i was in this most incredible peaceful place. Nothing else existed except this joy and tranquility and peace. would have been happy to stay there and never return!

    One of the problems of the string analogy is that strings are solid objects as well. In reality however particles are illusions: quanta create/maintain (oscillating) forcefields that give us the illusion of particles

    The beauty of music analogy is quite nice - as being untrained in music theory I would look at the score for a beautiful song and have no idea what I was looking at whereas a trained musician could possibly recognise the beauty from the notes, silences and accents. We would certainly not scoff at the use of "abstract" musical notation to create beautiful music as we should not scoff at the use of abstract mathematical constructs to create beautiful physical theories and models.

    I really like this video because it says more than the majority of popular materials. I've watched tens of YT videos on string theory and almost none of them say how it differs from standard QFT, i.e. in the sense of being much more rigid and explaining interactions just by the structure of particles. To me, Witten with his passion and concentration is a much better advertiser of strings than Kaku; at least to me Witten is far more convincing.

    Absolutely fascinating! I do understand thoroughly, and I don't know why. Edward Whitten 2:30 Edward is anticipating which questions the interviewer might ask while listening. Each word narrows down the gamut of possible words to finish the question. 12:00 Edward waits for the question to then for the answer idea to form, then the proper words to succinctly express the idea. 12:06 Being interrupted, Edward re-opens the gamut of responses then evaluates the interviewers further input and waits for the idea to form before the words gel to the best choices, a form of branching and/or backward time. 14:20 Five differing string theories are described by Edward. Perhaps the five separate conclusions describe the parameters of “fuzziness” required by higher dimensional time. I am presuming that these five separate theories are each presented in linear form. 17:00 Concerning symmetry; I don’t see how symmetry can be maintained at sub-luminal velocities. The balancing factor might be a super-luminal stillness gradient. Sub-luminal “fuzziness” may be balanced by super-luminal clarities, if you will. 17:50 “Space and time will only be approximations.” The position and velocity of a particle being an approximation is a part of this “fuzziness.” This is required for linear time to operate as we observe it. “Paying attention to what’s first and what’s last.” The words of this linear statement cannot express the idea the first and last can be simultaneous, as well as reversed.
