Mama Mia, Mama Mia!

 

A Canadian Bohemian Rhapsodizes About String Theory :  This is brilliant! 23 y/o musician and budding physicist Tim Blais explains string theory and the quantum theory of everything, a cappella. Robert Krulwich opines:

‘Let me confess right off that I didnt understand anything Tim Blais sings in this video, except that its hard — very hard — erase-the-blackboard-constantly-in-frustration hard — to find a mathematical theory that explains everything in the universe. Thats OK. Im not a physicist, so this isnt my problem. But when Tim produces an Albert Einstein sock puppet having a high-tenor tantrum, I found myself doing a little happy dance.With no apologies to Queen, this is Tims “A Capella Science” take on String Theory set to Bohemian Rhapsody. He calls it “Bohemian Gravity.” Hes 23. He wrote this. He sang this. He designed this. Hes amazing.’
