Calculations on the design of MBrains I meant.  I created two videos for Khan Academy introducing the notion of MBrains, but as far as I know they didn’t use them.  That isn’t really what Khan Academy is about.  But there might be a forum somewhere where ideas like this gather to play.  

I like the idea of ten minute videos which get right to the point.  The first of those videos is just under 10 minutes but the second is a little over 11, and both sound rushed, and I had a cold when I made them so I am not satisfied with either.  Even then, they are parts 1 and 2 of what was originally planned as a trilogy, so I haven’t even gotten to the part about how an MBrain can gradually pull a star, and the challenges of heat control.

Is there a web place where wacky scientific ideas gather in  video format?
