Mind Field (Seasons 1–3)

Mind Field (2017) is a YouTube Originals documentary series on psychology and neuroscience — watch online on iFILM. Michael Stevens, known online as Vsauce, runs live psychological experiments rather than just explaining classic ones from textbooks.

Each episode takes a single question — how isolation reshapes the mind, what drives obedience, how memory is constructed — and tests it in real conditions designed for the show. Philip Zimbardo, who ran the 1971 Stanford Prison Experiment, appears on camera and talks through what four decades of hindsight changed about his conclusions. No lecture format here: Stevens puts himself into each situation and reports what actually happens. Stream all episodes of Mind Field (2017) online on iFILM.
