One of the most underplayed genres of youtube video is “amazing cross-disciplinary research technology narrated in a monotone voice.” For example this video on how you make tiny flying robots out of composites using techniques from origami and popup books.
I think this stuff is among the coolest stuff being worked on in the world — and I love slash regret that these amazing developments are generally presented in the most ho-hum way possible. Anyway, check out this 5 min video [via Sawyer]:
