I found Amongi in the digits of pi! 

newton and other mathematicians in the afterlife finding out that their methods for approximating pi are being used to find among us crewmate pixel art

matt parker's transformation from "mathematician" into "maths-based shitposter" happened so slowly yet so obviously

I'm completely sure that Matt will be the first VTuber that uses prime numbers instead of an avatar

what's ironic about the plural "amongi" is that if you were to expand it to "among i", the "I" is singular, whereas the "us" in the singular "amongus" is plural

you didn't have to do this matt

I thought the way they hid amongi was really cool and clever. Not taking others' turf over, not vandalizing everything with mismatched colors or huge designs - just hanging out in the details, often only a shade or two off the predominant color around it. Cool stuff. And then, you know, a bunch of them just riding around in the Swedish community's Volvo. :D

never thought i'd hear anyone call the among us crewmates "amongi", was least expecting it to be said by a mathematician. but then this video popped up in my recommended! thank you matt.

I hope there will be a follow-up video about tiling with the Amongi patterns (both 4x4 and 4x5 work). Lots of interesting maths in there and it should be possible to write a program that converts any image into something consisting entirely of Amongi.

The fact that if we found the among us in 2019 it would mean nothing to us, it would just be more random, but now we are going in manhunts to find the sacred amongi. I must say, I love it.

For every "Among I" you pointed out, three others were hiding in plain sight ^^

I appreciate Matt's efforts to appeal to the kids. It's charming in a way.

2:47 missed the perfect opportunity to say "hiding amongi among us"

I certainly wasn't expecting "steamed hams but the frames are sections of prime numbers", but I'm very glad to have experienced it!

Amongi just entered my lexicon and I hate it. Thank you.

I absolutely love the image of a full grown adult going up to Matt Parker in public and going HEY YOU'RE MATT. THAT'S KINDA LIKE MATHS. OHMYGOD, _YOU_ DO MATHS! and he's like "......yup. Pretty crazy stuff" as he sprints away away to find pi in the rings of an oak tree somewhere. Edit: I also love that Matt gets a particularly mischievous smile when he knows that somewhere on earth, an American is typing a comment to tell him he said/spelled a word "wrong." (@11:36 for an example of said smile)

Just a few random musings on attempting to find Wally/Waldo in the digits of pi: Create grids of pixels that look like the letters in Wally/Waldo names, letting Pi be the arbitrator of which is correct. Using Pi as an endlessly long list of characters that can then be translated into letters (taking 00, or 01 and assigning that to A) and then searching for the first time that you manage to find all five "letters" in the correct order. Have each number represent a number of pixels in a specific 1x9 grid of pixels, and then draw Wally in a 9xY grid, then find a set that matches the value (this ones a stretch, but seems most likely to work quickly) Reverse the process, find Pi in Wally, using programs that can convert images (or sections of images) into "random" numbers, find a Where's Wally Picture or section of picture containing Wally that can provide you with at least the first 3 consecutive digits of Pi (3.14, no dropping the 3) since there are a finite number of Where's Wally images, you could probably also have images compete to find the longest chain of Pi digits.

This proves that Math and Amongus go hand in hand since the beginning of time itself.

Oh, now you've just GOT to rickroll someone with primes.

If you look at the area Matt points out at 2:17 on the video, in the area where Matt sees 2 "amongi", I see *7* amongi that are simply lacking 1 or 2 pixels, just in that blue patch, and a couple more in the adjacent (and smaller) orange patch, and I imagine we could find more elsewhere in the larger picture, and at other times.

_Amongus amongi_ Kingdom: Fungi Division: Amongomycota Order: Amongales Family: Amongomyceae

Ireland and Iceland are 1 hamming distance away from each other, which means that 1 hamming distance is approximately equal to 1.4k kilometers.

"In Carl Sagan's novel Contact, the main character (Ellie Arroway) is told by an alien that certain megastructures in the universe were created by an unknown advanced intelligence that left messages embedded inside transcendental numbers. To check this, Arroway writes a program that computes the digits of ππ in several bases, and eventually finds that the base 11 representation of ππ contains a sequence of ones and zeros that, when properly aligned on a page, produce a circular pattern."

This is truly amazing

Congrats on 1M!!!!

I know that the normality of Pi hasn’t been proven, but assuming it is normal, then somewhere in the digits of Pi is this entire video. I don’t think the surprise was finding the Amongi, but rather, finding them so quickly. I don’t know enough probability to compute it, but would be curious to know if the first Amongus showed up *sooner* than *expected* or if it was right about where one would expect to find any arbitrary string of that length.

YES!!! As I wrote one of the first posts inviting everyone on r/math to make the Hilbert Curve, I SPECIFICALLY had it in mind that perhaps Matt Parker would notice and mention it in a video. This was one of the driving forces behind my nonstop commitment to helping create and maintain that Hilbert Curve :D

Grats on 1 Mill Subs! I appreciate the extra effort in these Vids

Congrats on 1 mil!

I didn't know I needed a Matt Parker version of Steamed Hams, but my life feels a bit fuller now.

That program is gonna do wonders for the DMCA avoidance scene on youtube ;D Watch all your favorite movies in their prime quality.

This channel is just so lovely

I'm genuinely enjoying how over time you've become more and more open about your love of making sh*tposts

7:38 hold on that one's standing next to a π

8:57 Yes, the pi here is made of pi

i like how he calls it "Amongi" like "Octopi" as in multiple LOL

CONGRATULATIONS ON 1 MILLION MATT

Among us is hiding in maths itself, will we ever escape?

The concept of giving a gift that is a prime number of one's _own_ face, instead of the recipient's face, just makes me think of the Animal Crossing tradition of villagers giving you their own portraits as friendship gifts :P

Congratulations on 1M subscribers!

Congrats on one million subscribers!!!

If Pi is a normal number then there are infinitely many Amongi.

3:40 they hide… among us

I love the idea of using "amongi" as a plural of amongus

Congrats on 1 million subs!

here's a totally original and definetly not overused joke. when the pi is sus!!!!😳😳

16:48 Steamed Primes

this is brilliant!

“amongi” is not something I expected to hear from Stand-Up Maths of all people

when the circle constant is INFINITELY sus!!!!!

6:05 - The weird thing about Wally was his "evil counterpart" Odlaw was called Odlaw in the UK Saturday morning cartoon show - even though Yllaw is clearly the superior name.

congrats for 1 million subs!

Congrats on 1M subs! I first subscribed to your channel before you started posting regularly as Stand-up Maths, and there is NO ONE more deserving named Steve Mould or otherwise. Well done mate!

i like that nepeta is in shot for a couple seconds while the Hilbert curve is on-screen. it's been like a decade since it was relevant, and homestuck still pops up wherever i least expect it. Partly why i still have this as my profile picture- to give somebody else a mini heart attack when they realise HS did exist and wasn't just a fever dream.

You just opened a new category in psychology: numeropareidolia.

Amongi, what a beautiful word

I love how everyone just agreed amongus in plural is amongi

Matt, I recommend uploading "Steamed Hams but its Prime Numbers" to your secondary channel. It has a weirdly high chance of going viral. EDIT: he already did, and I should have checked.

Can we take a second to appreciate how wholesome, how funny, and how much fun Matt’s videos are

such a fun introduction. really liking this!

i absolutely love this

Fun fact: in the German speaking countries Wally/Waldo is called Walter

Matt's outrageous creativity is super entertaining

"Wally everywhere else" Well, it's Walter in germany :)

A less-cheatingy way of finding Walter (I'm compromising between the Wally/Waldo camps, it's 3 away from both) is to have strings of 24 binary digits represent a single RGB pixel, then you can have a function that allows for colors to be a certain percentage "off" from the original. I still don't think you'll find him even if you try all the possible wrappings, but it's worth a shot

That's not Wally's right eye. That's a pokemon, Unown. Even Pi, if you look hard enough, knows about pokemon

Hey, Matt! A Hilbert Curve did indeed survive through the entirety of r/place on the right upper quadrant of the page! It's also rainbow, so I think it's a significant upgrade.

13:40 so he found Waldo AND minecraft bedrock

I am in tears.

What if the image you need to find is rotated? Would there any new findings in the digits?

I remember friends collectively telling me at high-school that “math” was wrong and “maths” was correct. We were all Australians in Australia. idk how I originally came to a different understanding than the rest of them

Loving that monitor setup 🙂

This video made me remember how much I loved your hair, it was truly beautiful. At this point I’m used to your lack of hair, but young Matt is still a huge nostalgia trip for me.

When the circle constant is mistrustful 🤔

Couldn't that "find image X in pi" be done rather easily by cross correlation? I mean that can be done rather easily and efficiently with FFTs and it would allow for non-exact matches. In fact if you are using digits as greyscale images, it would even find versions that look similar.

"amongi" is now the official plural of "among us" now

I seen your video on TT, glad I can see the full video here... :D

I was inspired by the amongi everywhere and made a perfectly tiling amongi pattern! Surprising how much fun comes from fiddling around with this stuff.

15:57 It seems this is one of the few cases where having bad eyesight comes as a benefit. The prime-pixelated pictures and videos look much better with blurry vision!

This was fantastic ☺️ this tickled all of my giggity buttons... Thank you again Matt!

Loving the podcast since you mentioned it on your last video. Also enjoying a question squared as welll.

r/place was my life for 3 days, I'm so glad to see a fellow nerd be sniped!

11:25 my friend and I regularly refer to you as "Maths Parker" when discussing your videos.

6:10 "...from the Sunday Morning Breakfast Cereal..." I think you may not know him all that well haha

loving this edition of finding amongi among pi

Math actually managed to create their own design in the end, I can't remember the coordinates* but it is near the spanish flag on the upper-right section of the canvas. Ironically not far from Wally/Waldo *EDIT: I had to look it up and it is around 1655, 303

Not sure about the grammar of "Amongi". As a representative of the Among Us community, I say we prefer the more memeified singular "Amogus", and the greek plural suffix resulting in "Amogae".

It's not just Wally or Waldo. Each language had the name localized, although many are Wally or the closest approximation. Here's the list from wikipedia: Afrikaans: Willie American English: Waldo Arabic: فضولي (Fuḍūlī) Bulgarian: Уоли (Uoli) Catalan: Wally Chinese: 威利 Cantonese pronunciation: Wai lei Mandarin pronunciation: Wēilì Croatian: Jura Czech: Valdík Danish: Holger Dutch: Wally Egyptian Arabic: شلبي (shalabee) Estonian: Volli Finnish: Vallu French: Charlie Galician: Wally German: Walter Georgian: ვოლი (Voli) Greek: Γουόλι (Gouόli) Hebrew: אפי (Efi) Hindi: हेट्टी (Heṭṭi) Hungarian: Vili Icelandic: Valli Italian: Ubaldo, Wally Japanese: ウォーリー (Wōrī) Korean: 월리 (Walli) Lithuanian: Jonas Norwegian: Willy Polish: Wally Portuguese: Wally Romanian: Wally Russian: Уолли (Uolli) Serbian: Гиле (Gile) Spanish: Wally Swedish: Waldo, Valle, Hugo Turkish: Ali, Gezgin Veli Welsh: Wali

I just realized you achieved 1 Million Subscribers! I remember you having 998K last I checked. Congrats! I've always loved your content. I have high respect for mathematicians of culture who know how to convey messages to their audience in ways that can help teach very efficiently.

17:20 "digital images" 😂😂 good pun

14:59 Matt was a good looking guy in his prime 🤣.

congrats on a million subs

read the title and i actually, legitimately cried wtf it's just numbers why 😭

Actually, the formal name for crewmates is "Amogi" (!).

Question: In up to what number of digits of pi would we expect any fixed pattern of fixed size, with a certainty of 90%, 95%, or 99%?

Pi contains references to all future memes.

That's one way of avoiding copyright claims

I had to google Amongi before watching this video and had a great laugh at the thought you found Betty Amongi in Pi 😂

I don't know if I'm relieved or disappointed your channel wasn't originally named "Matt's Maths"

Love it !
