What is life and how did it start in an aimless universe? Videos about the physical emergence of telos (purpose) in a purposeless universe, how mattering emerges from matter, how currencies (values) emerge from currents (energy) how life's struggle for persistence emerges in a universe in which nothing is trying to do anything.
