Physicist James Gates explains the discovery of error-correcting block codes, similar to those used in search engines, within the equations of superstring theory.
S. James Gates is Toll Professor of Physics and Director of the Center for String and Particle Theory at the University of Maryland in College Park. He serves on President Obama's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. Physicist James Gates reveals why string theory stretches our imaginations about the nature of reality.

I found it really interesting when error correcting codes were found in superstring theory equations.
Neil Tyson interviewed one of the researchers who uncovered them.
