> Overall his projects are fascinating for anyone with interest in retro computing or learning how computers work at the lowest level

I'm on the RAM-building portion of the 8-bit breadboard computer for exactly this reason. I wanted to bridge the gap between (this is an electric circuit that lights an LED) and (this is how you can take a simple inverter and a logic gate to build a D flip flop, which can power registers, SRAM, and more) and (this is an 8-bit example of a Von Neumann Architecture computer).

His videos are perfect for that. Very well made and I don't have to take classes in circuit design or digital logic control & design at a college to learn the high level of how this works.
