The Lorentz Transformations - Intuitive Explanation

In this video, I want to build your intuition for the famous Lorentz transformations. I will talk about what coordinate transformation is in general (active and passive transformations). I will apply it on Galilean transformations and show how passive Galilean transformations look like. Ultimately we will discuss Lorentz transformations, How the passive coordinate transformation looks like, how they differ from rotations in Euclidian space, what is the spacetime interval and how to make sense of it in the real world.
