Brian Cox at TEDtalks on the Large Hadron Collider
Taken from the description of original video "Perimeter Institute brings great thinkers from around the world to Canada to share their ideas on a wide variety of interesting and topical subjects. These lectures and debates are aimed at non-specialists. No mathematical or scientific knowledge is necessary or assumed. Each event is explicitly tailored for the general public and everyone is welcome to attend. (...) Will big questions be answered when the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) switches on in 2007? What will scientists find? Where might the research lead? Nima Arkani-Hamed, a noted particle theorist, is a Professor of Physics at Harvard University. He investigates a number of mysteries and interactions in nature – puzzles that are likely to have experimental consequences in the next few years via particle accelerators, like the LHC, as well as cosmological observations."

It's quite a challenge to trace the history of modern physics in 90 minutes. The speaker does an excellent job of it.

Great video. Now when they don't find the Higgs boson you will realise why the last 30 years of contemporary physics will have been a complete waste of time and we can finally bury string theory once and for all.

Unless of course the string theorists change around the equations for about the third time to try and explain away why we haven't detected it yet...

I drive by, or walk around, the Perimeter Institute almost weekly. It's right next to Waterloo Park, and is one of the most interestingly designed buildings in our tri-cities area. I can't wait for them to hold another lecture series. Last year they hosted "Einstien Fest".

Fun fact: Outside they have a "break area" with a large outdoor chalk board. Sometimes you'll find all sorts of equations, theories, notes, etc scrawled all over it. Some you can understand, and others make your eyes bleed.
