Elementary Particle Explorer

We filmed our friend, physicist Garrett Lisi of the Pacific Science Institute, in his Hawaii home explaining how to use his Elementary Particle Explorer, a fascinating online tool for rotating and examining the particle charges and interactions in the Standard Model, Grand Unified Theories, and E8 Theory. Here is a link to the the Elementary Particle Explorer: http://www.deferentialgeometry.org/epe/

We filmed this as part of “Hacking Reality,” a short documentary we are making about E8 and how some scientists are attempting to use E8 in unification physics models. As we shoot the documentary, we will upload longer pieces of content such as this one in order to put more knowledge about E8 out there in the world for all to discover.
