Very good! Not exactly slow hand caliber, but good. One small flaw however; that is it should have been performed a Capella. That is such presentations are suppose to be background-independent 🙂
Who is that? I suppose you mean Slowhand. In as what this refers to is a blues song I’m shocked. Just go to: http://www.ericclapton.com/ and will be revealed.

Here is the song text:
The Quantum Gravity Topological Quantum Field Theory Blues
I’ve been calculating
I said I’ve been calculating
calculating all night long
Got a quasi- triangular Hopf algebra
and I wrote down the coproduct wrong.
I’ve been integrating
integrating the whole day through
I said I’ve been integrating
integrating the whole day through
Got a Chern-Simons functional integral
and its convergent, too.
I’ve been writing down knot diagrams
converting them to braids
Using the Alexander isotopy
you know I’m not afraid
I’ve been
assigning modules
to each of these six strings
been doin’ it for weeks now
and I still don’t understand a thing.
I’ve got them old Quantum Gravity

And without NSF funding I think that you would, too.

Let me try again. Who is the guy in the video? It is clearly not Clapton.
I’ve no idea who he is… Elvis Zap…
I’m sorry that one is directed to Dave.
