00:01:43,926 --> 00:01:45,Sometimes he
won't open it for weeks.

00:01:45,580 --> 00:01:47,If it's urgent,
people call.

00:01:47,452 --> 00:01:49,Okay, I swear, I can't with
him.

00:01:49,105 --> 00:01:50,He would starve if I
didn't tell him to eat.

00:01:50,890 --> 00:01:53,- So.
- Wait, you opened my mail?

00:01:53,458 --> 00:01:55,- I did.
- You can't do that.

00:01:55,329 --> 00:01:58,Dr. Ethan Kochar, we are
grateful for the opportunity

00:01:58,898 --> 00:02:00,to consider your article.

00:02:00,682 --> 00:02:02,We are pleased to inform you...

00:02:02,162 --> 00:02:03,- Read the punchline.
- I know, I know,

00:02:03,859 --> 00:02:05,that your article on
protein folding and memory

00:02:05,774 --> 00:02:09,will be the focus of the March
5th publication of Nature.

00:02:09,474 --> 00:02:11,What?

00:02:11,563 --> 00:02:12,You serious?

00:02:12,390 --> 00:02:13,Pretty good.

00:02:13,956 --> 00:02:15,See, I should open
your mail more often.

00:02:21,312 --> 00:02:25,Believe it or not, that
is not a telenovela clip.

00:02:26,665 --> 00:02:29,It is a memory of yours truly

00:02:29,276 --> 00:02:33,from when I made
the cover of Nature.

00:02:34,368 --> 00:02:38,So how did we capture it?

00:02:40,766 --> 00:02:42,You'll recall that
memories exist

00:02:42,333 --> 00:02:45,as physical imprints
on the brain.

00:02:46,250 --> 00:02:50,The R-9X identifies
these engrams

00:02:50,254 --> 00:02:51,based on their
protein expressions

00:02:52,081 --> 00:02:54,and transfers that data from
our internal hard drives

00:02:54,910 --> 00:02:56,to external ones.

00:02:56,912 --> 00:02:59,But making those memories
legible is a challenge

00:02:59,828 --> 00:03:00,in and of itself.

00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,You remember Berkeley, 2011.

00:03:03,223 --> 00:03:06,Before I took over, the
R-9X could not render images

00:03:06,792 --> 00:03:08,more clear than that.

00:03:09,795 --> 00:03:12,So what do you think was
missing?

00:03:16,454 --> 00:03:17,Emotions?

00:03:18,151 --> 00:03:20,Thank you, Rachel, yes.

00:03:20,109 --> 00:03:23,Euphoria, fear, lust.

00:03:25,245 --> 00:03:29,Every memory is tied to an
emotional section of our brain,

00:03:29,641 --> 00:03:33,even the ones that we bury
deep in our subconscious.

00:03:55,057 --> 00:04:00,A sound, a smell, a shape

00:04:00,976 --> 00:04:03,is all it takes for recall.

00:04:51,549 --> 00:04:52,S***t.

00:04:55,988 --> 00:05:00,So to get to legible memories,

00:05:00,340 --> 00:05:03,I knew that mapping emotions was
key.

00:05:03,909 --> 00:05:06,May 16th, 2019.

00:05:08,827 --> 00:05:12,Previous findings show that
the R-9X can download memories.

00:05:14,223 --> 00:05:17,Current experimentation is
a progression of that work.

00:05:18,271 --> 00:05:21,Our major premise, the
link between our emotions

00:05:21,883 --> 00:05:25,and our accumulated memories
regulates human consciousness.

00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,Minor premise, the R-can isolate the sections

00:05:30,196 --> 00:05:34,of the brain which impact
emotions and behavior.

00:05:34,330 --> 00:05:37,Conclusion, the R-10 is capable

00:05:37,508 --> 00:05:39,of controlling human
consciousness.

00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,So why does this matter anyway?

00:05:55,656 --> 00:05:58,I mean, it's nice to be
able to watch our memories

00:05:58,442 --> 00:06:01,like home videos, but to what
end?

00:06:03,621 --> 00:06:05,What about affecting
consciousness?

00:06:07,146 --> 00:06:09,The emotions tied to memories

00:06:09,496 --> 00:06:11,exist along synaptic pathways,
right?

00:06:11,846 --> 00:06:16,So what if our ideal
self's just a question

00:06:16,372 --> 00:06:19,of turning the right ones on and
off?

00:06:25,164 --> 00:06:26,Isn't that, like, unethical?

00:06:26,948 --> 00:06:28,Ah, there he is.

00:06:29,342 --> 00:06:30,All right, how so, Mitchell?

00:06:31,649 --> 00:06:33,We're talking about
altering

00:06:33,215 --> 00:06:34,what makes you you.

00:06:34,782 --> 00:06:37,Does anybody else find
Mitchell's stubbornness,

00:06:37,176 --> 00:06:38,endearing or
is it just me?

00:06:39,439 --> 00:06:42,I'm talking about a machine
calibrated to the individual.

00:06:43,399 --> 00:06:47,A machine that can erase a
veteran's PTSD,

00:06:48,709 --> 00:06:52,that suppresses the reward
center for an opioid junkie,

00:06:53,366 --> 00:06:55,and that could boost your
intellect.

00:06:55,673 --> 00:06:58,I'm sure some of you
could benefit from that.

00:06:58,632 --> 00:07:02,Imagine, consciousness
constructed to your own liking.

00:07:04,159 --> 00:07:07,Memories curated to a desired
state.

00:07:07,249 --> 00:07:10,And yes, perhaps,

00:07:10,644 --> 00:07:13,changing yourself for the
better.

00:07:15,997 --> 00:07:18,All right, well, that's
enough for this week.

00:07:18,739 --> 00:07:22,Be sure to read my essay on
the self and temporal sequence

00:07:22,743 --> 00:07:24,by next class.

00:07:26,051 --> 00:07:27,Have a great week.

00:07:39,630 --> 00:07:41,Still struggling with the
initiation.

00:07:42,589 --> 00:07:44,But I've ruled out the
distributors,

00:07:44,765 --> 00:07:47,so it must be the equation.

00:07:51,903 --> 00:07:55,Side note, I had another
blackout this morning.

00:07:57,082 --> 00:08:01,Indeterminate time, but they
are becoming more frequent.

00:08:02,522 --> 00:08:04,I'm still hoping that
the R-10 can pinpoint.

00:08:45,957 --> 00:08:49,A man whose journey into
the mind

00:08:49,177 --> 00:08:52,is the basis for all those who
come after.

00:08:53,399 --> 00:08:56,His work, fully realized in the
R-9X,

00:08:56,968 --> 00:09:00,is perhaps the most
groundbreaking discovery

00:09:00,319 --> 00:09:02,of this century.

00:09:02,190 --> 00:09:06,With applications from
education to national security.

00:09:07,935 --> 00:09:10,So before I present the
plaque for our new lab,

00:09:11,025 --> 00:09:14,I've asked Dr. Kochar's
partner to say a few words.

00:09:14,812 --> 00:09:19,The co-creator of the
R-9X, Dr. Malcolm Bloom.

00:09:24,996 --> 00:09:28,Thank you, Dean Myers, and
thank you all for coming.

00:09:30,001 --> 00:09:33,We were all fortunate
enough to know Dr. Kochar.

00:09:34,701 --> 00:09:36,But for a cocksure doctoral
student,

00:09:36,877 --> 00:09:40,a position in his lab was dumb
luck.

00:09:41,839 --> 00:09:44,I never questioned his
judgment, never had to.

00:09:46,713 --> 00:09:49,Until he asked me to be his
partner.

00:09:52,327 --> 00:09:55,You can say that I knew
Paul better than most.

00:09:55,461 --> 00:09:56,No one could match his
brilliance.

00:09:58,638 --> 00:10:03,Kendall, Kahneman, Einstein,
these are his equals.

00:10:04,470 --> 00:10:07,We'll be hard-pressed to see
Dr. Paul Kochar's influence

00:10:07,255 --> 00:10:09,matched in our lifetime.

00:10:16,003 --> 00:10:17,There's the wunderkind.

00:10:19,877 --> 00:10:21,You're a hard man to track down.

00:10:23,576 --> 00:10:24,How's it coming?

00:10:25,883 --> 00:10:27,- Good.
- Good.

00:10:27,928 --> 00:10:29,That's good to hear.

00:10:29,321 --> 00:10:30,Good enough for tomorrow.

00:10:31,584 --> 00:10:32,I thought you rescheduled.

00:10:32,977 --> 00:10:34,I did, for tomorrow.

00:10:35,022 --> 00:10:35,No.

00:10:35,893 --> 00:10:37,No, no, no, no.

00:10:37,111 --> 00:10:38,Come on, Ethan, work with me,

00:10:38,722 --> 00:10:40,so I can keep the committee off
your back.

00:10:40,245 --> 00:10:42,Yeah, well, you do it
best.

00:10:42,726 --> 00:10:44,Well I've g***t practice.

00:10:44,249 --> 00:10:46,Ethan, look, you're going
through a lot.

00:10:46,599 --> 00:10:47,I get it, we all miss your dad.

00:10:49,471 --> 00:10:51,They'll replace you with someone
else if you don't deliver.

00:10:52,083 --> 00:10:53,I thought I already did.

00:10:56,087 --> 00:10:58,I fought hard for your credit,

00:10:58,393 --> 00:11:01,but the R-9 was started
with your father and me.

00:11:04,791 --> 00:11:06,You want one?

00:11:06,445 --> 00:11:07,No, I quit.

00:11:07,751 --> 00:11:08,Really?

00:11:11,319 --> 00:11:14,Everyone who matters knows
you finished the R-9.

00:11:14,670 --> 00:11:16,Forget the patent plaque.

00:11:19,284 --> 00:11:20,Please, Ethan.

00:11:21,460 --> 00:11:23,It's, it's not ready.

00:11:23,549 --> 00:11:25,Then bullshit your way through.

00:11:25,116 --> 00:11:27,Whatever you're working on,
present it.

00:11:27,509 --> 00:11:29,Ethan, we need this renewal.

00:11:29,773 --> 00:11:30,I'm gonna need you at 9:30.

00:11:30,904 --> 00:11:32,I need you to be there tomorrow.

00:11:32,210 --> 00:11:34,- Yeah.
- 9:30, okay?

00:11:39,304 --> 00:11:40,Sir?

00:11:43,308 --> 00:11:44,Sir.

00:11:48,661 --> 00:11:50,Are you sure you want another?

00:11:52,317 --> 00:11:53,Yeah.

00:11:53,492 --> 00:11:55,Okay, this is the last one.

00:12:10,857 --> 00:12:12,What's that?

00:12:16,994 --> 00:12:18,Oh, it's...

00:12:22,347 --> 00:12:25,It's nothing, it's a snowflake.

00:12:27,134 -->...
