Symphony of Science - the Quantum World!

mp3: http://bit.ly/oRYyiV A musical investigation into the nature of atoms and subatomic particles, the jiggly things that make up everything we see. Featuring Morgan Freeman, Stephen Hawking, Michio Kaku, Brian Cox, Richard Feynman, and Frank Close.

"The Quantum World" is the eleventh installment in the ongoing Symphony of Science music video series. Materials used in the creation of this video are from:

Lyrics:

[Morgan Freeman]

So, what are we really made of?

Dig deep inside the atom

and you"ll find tiny particles

Held together by invisible forces

Everything is made up

Of tiny packets of energy

Born in cosmic furnaces

[Frank Close]

The atoms that we"re made of have

Negatively charged electrons

Whirling around a big bulky nucleus

[Michio Kaku]

The Quantum Theory

Offers a very different explanation

Of our world

[Brian Cox]

The universe is made of

Twelve particles of matter

Four forces of nature

That"s a wonderful and significant story

[Richard Feynman]

Suppose that little things

Behaved very differently

Than anything big

Nothing"s really as it seems

It"s so wonderfully different

Than anything big

The world is a dynamic mess

Of jiggling things

It"s hard to believe

[Kaku]

The quantum theory

Is so strange and bizarre

Even Einstein couldn"t get his head around it

[Cox]

In the quantum world

The world of particles

Nothing is certain

It"s a world of probabilities

(refrain)

[Feynman]

It"s very hard to imagine

All the crazy things

That things really are like

Electrons act like waves

No they don"t exactly

They act like particles

No they don"t exactly

[Stephen Hawking]

We need a theory of everything

Which is still just beyond our grasp

We need a theory of everything, perhaps

The ultimate triumph of science

(refrain)

[Feynman]

I gotta stop somewhere

I"ll leave you something to imagine
