Fun with Physics Movies

I am author and actor of approx. 70 short movies about physics phenomena. The movie series has ben initiated by the university broadcast Campus TV. Only 90 seconds ('one-and-a-half minutes') are given to the film makers to present a topic. All movies follow a simple concept : Starting from a physics experiment, a short portrait of a physicist is presented and the movie ends with a link to modern technology. The movies are directed to laymen. They should not be used to educate physics students as they put emphasis on simplicity at the cost of details.

Unfortunately the movies are only available in German.
