Following couple of short videos should interest you. How simple primitives can be used to build mechanisms. These are part of Erlang MOOC.

1. Joe talks about 'Turning Sequential Code Into Concurrent Code' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brklJ6yTH50&list=PLlML6SMLMR...

2. Next, 'Abstracting Patterns of Concurrency': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvtrxeh8ZA8&list=PLlML6SMLMR...

I hadn't seen those videos before, thanks.

Let me add one to the list: "The Soul of Erlang and Elixir • Saša Jurić" — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvBT4XBdoUE

I'm positive this video can turn any software engineer into a BEAM/OTP convert. It's one of my favourite demos.

I love this demo, it what got me to pick up Sasa's book.

I was attending a show and tell following seeing this where an engineer was trying to isolate failure of certain functions from the rest of the system and i sent this to them.

No idea if they watched it but i became an OTP evangelist in that moment
