In this video Martin Hanczyc explains a different perspective for understanding life on earth. In general, scientists consider something to be living, only if it consists of complex DNA structures and in some cases a nervous system. However, Martin Hanczyc shows a number of videos, in which inorganic liquid droplets show life-like behavior, without having any DNA or nervous system.

Love and Immune System
Dr. Amit Goswami, quantum physicist, also known as the "Quantum Activist," believes quantum physics is applicable to matters beyond the material world. In this video, he explains why romantic love has always been associated with heart, and goes on to claim that falling in love is actually a matter of compatibility of immune systems of individuals.
Technology and Magic
This is one entertaining video that demonstrates how modern technology can help create great magic shows. Technology has always been an integral part of all magic shows. However, most of the technologies used for magic are quite primitive( the technology of the 1800s). Marco Tempest is one of the pioneers, who uses modern 21st century technology to create magic. The modern technology actually makes magic easier for a magician than what it used to be. In fact, I imagine that Marco Tempest spends more time writing codes or programs for his magic, than thinking or practicing it. But, use of modern technology has certainly made his magic more interesting than the age old hat tricks that we get to see from most other magicians.
