You know, this is exactly what I would expect from an 11 year old video. Kept me captivated throughout the entire thing. Not only that, but the topics flowed really well, with one thing leading to the next.
That’s the sad part. Not very many videos nowadays bring this level of captivating because everyone wants to get a job out of this. If you ask this person how much money did you want to make off this video they will more than likely answer “non. I just wanted to share my point with the world”. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t get a job as a youtuber, but you do need to create a level of captivity in your videos or then your sitting there bored as hell and wanting to find something better. You will rarely find a video like this today unless you did a lot of digging or you just know someone who is just very good at this kind of thing. Sorry I ramble.
I should be thinking about how incredibly intelligent she is but I’m more impressed with her art skills- all those circles are so well drawn how is she human-
Or she learned about fractals in math. There honestly isn't a ton to fractals, just a patter than can repeat forever that is consistent to some tort of formula.
Or maybe most if the population is full of dumbasses who never paid attention in class. I know when i was in highschool (this was before iphones and shit) everyone in my class never cared for school. It was just filled with the typical jocks, goths, nerds, cheerleaders etc. nowadays it seems like boys just play video games and trash talk while girls make something out of themselves.
1:51 "... Or a profile of one of your friends. I choose Abraham Lincoln." My first though was "Is she implying that Abraham Lincoln is her friend???" Lol
So I just realized that I have been doodling like this (with circles inside of triangles) for over 10 years now and it’s all thanks to this video. I’m terrible at math, but I have ADHD and having go-to doodling patterns helped me get through SO MANY boring classes. Thank you for sharing this over a decade ago!
I remember first watching these videos nine, ten years ago, back when I was still in late elementary and middle school. This channel was what got me obsessed with the Fibonnacci sequence (different video, I know) many years before any teacher of mine would even think to mention it to me, and to see it in my recommendations feed again... oh, the nostalgia
In the fast part she says 'I wonder what would happen if I speeded my voice up twice as fast, and twice as fast, and then twice as fast . . ." into oblivion
@@w.stanhope5911 its good bro im to dumb to but dont be sad My PaPa from cuba say you not dumb you just cant hear cause you got to much ear wax in your ear
i saw a video of you explaining how to eat candy buttons like a mathematician when i was nine (seven years ago) and the video was SO memorable and SO remarkable that out of all the hundreds of thousands of videos i have probably seen on youtube and elsewhere, and out of all the rants i have heard, i remembered this one. i was sitting at my desk, mindlessly scrolling through youtube as i usually do, and saw this video, so i clicked on it out of boredom and because it intrigued me. IMMEDIATELY i thought of the candy button video. that i saw ONCE, seven years ago. the way you explain and the way your videos are is so unique that after seven years i was still able to recognise your work. watching this was nostalgic but not because it was made in 2010, but because it resembles the button video in so many ways but is still so interesting and different that i could watch both videos back to back, learn something different from each, and i still wouldn't be bored.
i loved how she used drawings to explain complex mathematical concepts like infinity and recursion. It was mind blowing to see how she connected elephants with infinity by drawing them in a way that repeats forever. at first I was a bit confused about how elephants and doodles related to math, but her explanations made it somewhat understandable and fascinating. It inspired me to think creatively about math and see how it can be fun if you keep an open mind.
This brought a tear to my face.... Yeah I know kind lame but this old form of RU-vid that was just blasted to my front screen brought back memories of the great and triumphant Knoble Woman and Men whom made videos for pure enjoyment. As i sit here fighting with RU-vid auto correct who is telling me "whom" is not a word, I still hold hope for RU-vid and the people to come. Thank you Vihart for hosting my brain spatter.
9 years. 3 days away from being 9 years so if you round that to the nearest year, its 9 years. Or maybe 4 days but still. Im not hating i just like math
My brother and I used to watch these and later on in art class when I was in like 5th grade it ALL came back. My teacher kept calling me to the front of the class to explain the how “math is very close w/art” . I’m now a freshman in high school but I love these🥰
Once again I have been thoroughly indulged with another wonderful concept of mathematics! I have been very interested and intrigued by the infinite number of infinities for a couple years now, and how “some infinities are greater than others,” and the infinite number of ways that infinity can be represented. Today I found out another very artistically and mathematically beautiful way infinity can be described, and I will definitely be playing this new doodle game in my own math notebook in my pre-calc class! I have yet to encounter “infinite series” in a mathematics class, but I am very thrilled for the day I do just because of the fact that fractions, while decreasing and being added to each other get closer to 1, shows just how small infinities can be (even though they can get a lot smaller). Also, an “Apollonian Gasket” is one of the coolest sounding mathematical terms I’ve ever heard of, and “Sierpinski’s Triangle” sounds sick. I just love how circles can fit perfectly into any amorphous or geometric shape because there is always a circle for any arbitrary 3 points, but equilateral triangles cannot (well, in an aesthetically pleasing way at least). It is astounding to me how it is even possible to see something resembling the density of an infinity, and I hope to find more ways to do so. Thank you for this new wisdom Vihart!
I haven't watched this channel somewhere in the ballpark of 5 or 6 years. So imagine my surprise when it randomly gets suggested to me, and apparently lots of other people. Apgorithm is finally catching up with me
Plot twist: in the end of the video she actually said absolutly everything about math and solved every math problem of the past and future, but she said it too fast for us to understand.
I find this video to be incredibly interesting. The way she is able to explain infinite series and make it so interesting. Also, her art style is just pleasing to look at. One thing that confuses me is the idea that there is different kinds of Infiniti some being bigger that others.
I watched these back when I was in 5th grade. You make high school math understandable to a middle schooler so thank you. Now that I’m in high school I actually find these topics interesting though having a good teacher doesn’t hurt.
Saw that in my French class, in French. Was interesting enough, but it was another one of those weird artsy European films that didn't really have a plot, just a series of interesting scenes.
What you described in the last sentence...s is what is called a supertask in theoretical reasoning. It is the answer to the question "How do you do an infinite amount of things in a finite amount of time?"
