Creating real connections with people who passionately study a small field of pysics actually tunes you in to that knowledge to explore it. You start having new ideas which were somehow influenced by that person's field of information and connection with the nature and the wander. Otherwise you can collect information fill your memory with it but I see no real point for it. Also there are some amazing dicumentaries. I loved Jim al-khalili's approach and he is also exploring some topics on to quantum biology which is, I think, the new frontier.
