I took his Introduction to Cryptography class when he was a visiting professor at Columbia. Absolute master of an old-school chalkboard lecturer. They don't make them like that any more.

Hugely engaging, the margins of my notebook had many of his quips… there was an archive online somewhere.

e.g., x minus x is zero, even for Euler, so therefore…

I know him from Harvard and came here to say pretty much the same thing. RIP.

I took his Computability class in the Hebrew University. He got angry that students were often late to class, and said that this never happened in Harvard...

Any of his "chalkboard" lectures (preferably in English) in open archives of these universities? YouTube searches only bring up Prof Rabin's lectures aided by slides and presentation (ex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thK_qJqx5mo at Tel Aviv Uni / https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCX0Ut0hcWw at Harvard).

There's a chalkboard here (used ~44:50):

Cryptography and Preventing Collusion in Second Price (Vickery) Auctions - Michael Rabin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cmCBVrVQqc

No chalkboard but more lectures

https://youtu.be/nbePExzSTQ0?si=KkTbwfwj5rMtQUhD&t=681 - פלאי תורת ההצפנות ויישומיה לתהליכים פיננסיים (The wonders of cryptography and financial applications)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_LG5Hcc8mM - Lecture 7 - Zero Knowledge Proofs and Applications Michael Rabin

For those interested in searching for more here's a Hebrew search string you can use: "פרופסור מיכאל רבין הרצאה" interesting enough Google and YT search yield results in English and Hebrew but possibly different ones than just searching in English.

EDIT: One more:
