When we think of quantum mechanics, most of us conjure up images of nutty professors and blackboards filled with incomprehensible equations. Though quantum mechanics does indeed have a lot to do with seemingly incomprehensible math, the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics are well worth understanding as they give us a fresh perspective on which to view the Universe we live in.

In this episode, Thom gives us a lay-person overview of the essentials of quantum mechanics. Importantly, he explains how our consciousness shapes our world and why we should always question our assumptions.  

Episode Highlights:

[00:45] The Quest for Quarks

[04:33] Ignore That

[07:28] The Ultimate Discovery of Physics

[09:30] Consciousness in Physics

[11:28] There Are No Particles

[13:01] Questioning Assumptions

[15:50] You Live in a Universe that is a Response to Your Expectation

[19:15] The Aristotelian Demand
