# Kurzgesagt

Kurzgesagt (/ˌkʊərtsɡəˈzɑːkt/) is a German animation studio founded by Philipp Dettmer. The studio's YouTube channel focuses on minimalist animated educational content, using the flat design style. It discusses scientific, technological, political, philosophical and psychological subjects. Narrated by Steve Taylor, videos on the channel are typically 4–16 minutes in length, with each available in German through the channel Dinge Erklärt – Kurzgesagt. With over 10 million subscribers, the studio's channel was ranked as the world's 511th most subscribed in 2019.

The name derives from the German kurz gesagt (IPA: ˈkʊɐ̯ts gəˈzaːkt), which directly translates to "said in short".It has also been translated as 'in brief' or 'in a nutshell', the latter being used as an English subtitle for the channel's name.

It could mean that the end of humanity is almost certain and that it might be coming soon. Why? Why would the most exciting discovery of our lifetime be bad? Let us imagine the development of life, from its inception to us today, as a flight of stairs. The first step is dead chemistry that needs to assemble itself into self-replicating patterns, stable and resilient, but also able to change and evolve.
