2023-05-05 17:14:29 The hidden network that makes the internet possible
Sajan Saini
Subtitle: English | Turkish

In 2012, a team of researchers set a world record, transmitting 1 petabit of data— that's 10,000 hours of high-def video— over a fifty-kilometer cable, in a second. This wasn't just any cable. It was a souped-up version of fiber optics, the hidden network that links our planet and makes the internet possible. What is fiber optics and how does it work? Sajan Saini explores the vital technology. [Directed by Artrake Studio, narrated by Addison Anderson].

2023-05-03 17:14:06 What makes a language... a language?
Martin Hilpert
Subtitle: English | Turkish

Outside of China, Mandarin and Cantonese are often referred to as Chinese dialects, despite being even more dissimilar than Spanish and Italian. On the other hand, speakers of Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, which are three distinct languages, can usually communicate with each other in their native tongues. So, when is speech considered a dialect versus a language? Martin Hilpert investigates. [Directed by Luísa M H Copetti, Hype CG, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Gabriel Maia].

2023-04-28 17:14:31 Why did the British Empire burn, sink, and hide these documents?
Audra A. Diptée
Subtitle: English | Turkish

In 2009, five Kenyan people took a petition to the British Prime Minister. They claimed they endured human rights abuses in the 1950s, while Kenya was under British colonial rule, and demanded reparations. They had no documentary evidence that Britain sanctioned systems of torture— but thousands of secret files were waiting to be discovered. Audra Diptée digs into the Operation Legacy documents.

Nigel Rothfels
Subtitle: English | Turkish

For thousands of years, native Takhi horses roamed the steppes of Central Asia. But by the late 1960s, their extinction seemed inevitable. To prevent this, scientists and zoos started a breeding program and soon began releasing new generations of Asia's ancient wild horse back into their native habitat. Nigel Rothfels explains the twists and turns of this complicated conservation effort. [Directed by Anna Benner, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Raphael Tschernuth].
