g'day wonderful human my name's dylan dance i'm a physicist from the land down under grab
a coffee grab a chair grab a vegemite sandwich grab whatever you want to grab let's talk some
natural philosophy there's quite a few people who watch these now so it's something of a community
and i don't know any of you personally but i do care about you all and i just want to
make sure you're all doing okay so please if you're struggling reach out to somebody
leave a comment down under and you know the rest of the community will get around you so
i will put up some good places you can talk to people
there's always people you can talk to so just gotta reach out all right back to my stupid video
hopefully you can get a few minutes of enjoyment out of it let's watch some full metal alchemist
so if you pray and polish the ultra enough times someone who's dead will be brought back to life
something like that an anime girl a day keeps the real ones away
that's creepy as hell
my
foreign
uh
wow that's extremely traumatic that's the weirdest thing i've ever seen in my life
how about we just go back and talk about the alchemy now because that
is too much i could deal with the people getting eaten the turning kids and the dogs
i'm out i'm gonna i'm gonna head out so let's talk about this alchemy because i skipped over that so
the goals of alchemy went far beyond just trying to create some golden nuggets it was this whole
complex spiritual world view so the whole thing as well in alchemy is that everything is transmutable
and that really is close to what what we currently think in physics if some
of the popular models in theoretical physics are correct well then this mata stuff like anything in
this room can transmute into a quanta of pure force like photons like light and back again
so that is very similar to what you know alchemy suggests in that everything is transmutable so
you know they got they kind of got that one right and currently in physics our view of matter is
more like light than you know solid physical you know impenetrable hard stuff
so that's kind of really interesting and it can transmute between you know this pure force stuff
and seemingly you know this matter stuff so even though alchemy never reached its goals it still
kind of remains in society today because alchemists were really just early chemists
and chemistry is really just easy physics but anyway we'll leave it there let's watch some more
it's an adventure in creative self-expression that is limited only by the boundaries of your own
imagination cooking is a science no it isn't it's an art well science is kind of an art they're kind
of the same thing in my opinion science is like god's art and when i say god here i don't know
what i'm talking about i don't mean the personal god but maybe you know some higher form of a god
that is nature or something alchemy the science of understanding deep
is not an all-powerful art it is impossible to create
this is the law of equivalent exchange the basis of all alchemy
in accordance with this law there is a taboo among
even though their whole philosopher's stone the harry potter thing you know that never
worked out either uh well they they weren't too far off again because we can do that today with
particle accelerators um and a lot of money you can actually turn other metals in the goal now
so you're only going to get you know microscopic amounts of gold um and the cost of making
you know doing this procedure is going to cost you a lot more than the gold is worth so you
know there's really no point but you know they you can do it all right so it's very much possible to
create a material from another material the universe and everything in it would be very
very different if that weren't possible carbon 20 kilograms ammonia four liters lime 1.5 kilograms
phosphorus 800 grams salt 250 grams salt peter 100 grams sulfur 80 grams fluorine 7.5 iron five
silicon three grams and trace amounts of 15 other elements what's that it's all the ingredients
of the average adult human body down to the last specks of protein in your eyelashes and even those
bringing a human to life there's still something missing something scientists haven't been able
to find in centuries of research wondering all those ingredients can be bought on a child's
there's no magic to it
time rose science will find a way science is the answer to everything
all right let's have a pause here he said there's no magic to it there's no magic to the human
body or whatever we are and uh i have to disagree with him like clearly he's never
studied any physics because there's some magical [ __ ] stuff in physics not sure i
agree with what he said about science having the answer to everything it might it might not um
it takes it to a very philosophical place right you ask yourself those big questions about
you know where did this place come from what's going on um and who knows if science will be
able to answer those sorts of questions and i'm just like everyone else i don't have the answers
to those big questions i love to think about them and i have lots of fun ideas but nobody knows or
nobody has even the slightest clue you know i can see a pattern but i can't imagine who made
the pattern i i could see a clock but i can't envision the clock maker and as einstein said
the human mind can't even perceive the four dimensions it is within so how is it meant
to perceive of a god whom before a thousand years and a thousand dimensions are as one yes
my
wow
me
bye
so brutal but so interesting i'm loving it
i want to watch this show but uh i was really enjoying that whole uh philosophical
view of god i i like it pour on i think that'll do it for this video that was just a whole bunch
of traumatic and sad scenes but it does look like a really interesting show and very philosophical
so let me know down under what you want me to watch next guys and i'll catch you next time
