Twistor theory

In theoretical and mathematical physics, twistor theory maps the geometric objects of conventional 3+1 space-time (Minkowski space) into geometric objects in a 4-dimensional space endowed with a Hermitian form of signature (2,2).This space is called twistor space, and its complex valued coordinates are called "twistors." Twistor theory was first proposed by Roger Penrose in 1967, as a possible path to a theory of quantum gravity.

I'm sure the theory is difficult enough, but I'm also sure this video did nothing more than completely confound the issue.

FOr the lay people, Its a hypothesis that aims to unify gravity with quantum physics, and to then compose a unified field theory..
