Top 5 Science and Engineering Music Videos
The founding of YouTube in February, 2005 stands as one of the greatest moments in internet history. The implications of easily available streaming videos were boundless. Our favorite result of YouTube? Wacky science and engineering related music videos!
We’ve ranked our top 5 and presented them here for you, in one easy to swallow post. So grab some popcorn, sit back, relax and enjoy.
Disagree with our selections? We’ve managed to fix the kinks in our comment system, so let us know which videos we’re missing!
5) Perhaps it’s because I have a soft spot for ’80s benefit songs, or maybe it’s my love for the Simpson’s We’re Sending Our Love Down a Well video, but I’m really entertained by this Scientists for a Better PCR video. I’m still not certain what a BioRad Thermocycler is, but I kind of want one.
4) While more famous for their heralded Nano-Song, the gang from The Sounds of Science recently released their puppet laden follow up The Safety Song. My preference for this song is due to the monster solo starting at 2:40 of the video. “It’s not fair, I can’t help that I shed purple hair!”
3) There have been some Musical Tesla Coil videos hanging around the web for a few years, but the best by FAR is this one from The Geek Group of a pair of Tesla Coils playing the theme song from Super Mario Brothers.
2) The YouTube page for the Protein Synthesis Dance claims that the video was taken from the end of a 70’s era video that had a 3 minute long lecture in front of it. One thing becomes immediately clear upon watching this: they were NOT kidding about it having come from the 1970’s.
1) This is a video I’ve talked about before and simply can not get enough of. The creative minds at Symphony of Science used an auto tune machine and some old film of Carl Sagan, Richard Feynman, Neil deGrasse Tyson and Bill Nye to create a music video called “We Are All Connected.” As a longtime fan of Richard Feynman, I loved seeing his inclusion in this video, and I’m not ashamed to admit I’ve watched it more than once:
