From Microsoft Project Tuva: Richard Feynman’s Messenger Lecture Series
Project Tuva was a collaborative research project with Bill Gates in 2009 demonstrating the potential of interactive video learning by highlighting the “core scientific concepts” of Richard Feynman’s Messenger Lectures Series. Upon release, the first of the seven lectures: The Law of Gravitation – An Example of Physical Law, was brought to life with interactive visualizations, links to searchable transcripts, integrated note-taking capabilities and other features. The Silverlight application was retired in 2016, but the Richard Feynman videos are still available in public domain.
