This is just an example of an electrodynamic fact. See for example
If you don't have access to that file you can check Beardens copies
Anyone can look at page 4 and understand the physics.
This is just plain electrodynamics. I can't understand why the professor on the BBC page talks about secret garden, science fiction, metamaterial.
Another thing is that these materials can not be too densely packed. Then the properties vanish.
If ZPE theory of gravity and inertia is correct then fast motion and lower weight could be designed with the same technique.
