Blog: Favourite YouTube Videos (Volume 85)

In this volume of my favourite YouTube videos, we look at the heavy, the light and the (hopefully) very small.

• First, John Green explains the situation in the United States leading up to the Civil War. Not only is the subject mater interesting but I also think that this is one of John's finest pieces of oratory.
• Next, Jack Conte covers Daft Punk's Doin' it Right. I love how you can see how Pomplamoose grows out of his music and Nataly Dawn's. Also this video is just plain awesome and then Jack talking about Patreon is also plain awesome.
• Finally, Professor Brailsford expands on compression in this video from Computerphile.
