Check out the videos noted on the side of the page. Some are quite lengthy, and you can spend a lot of time watching the craziness. I used to watch some of it live at the World Trade Center many years ago always wondering how they made sense out of what appeared to be sheer madness. Apparently the computers will soon put an end to most if not all of it.

There are quite a few videos and audio conversations also devoted to quants, who they are, what they do, and the wreckage they've created and continue to create.
