Videos

I've got the first of the explanatory videos up. Randy and I have talked about putting up videos to help explain what is going on in the experiments for almost a year now. It can be really hard for someone to visualize what's happening in the experiments for the paradoxes just from our description. I've even found that in writing descriptions: the more precise someone describes something, the harder it is for someone else to understand it.

That's just not how we talk.

Unfortunately, the vaguer the description the more easily the listener misconstrues what is being said. And it turns out it's not an easy needle to thread: it takes many years for someone to be able to reliably read a geometrical description of a problem without getting confused.

But never fear, video is here! I can draw out what I want to talk about for you, as I have in this video.
