My entry for ‪@3blue1brown‬'s Summer of Math Exposition 2022.
It's my first video ever and there are a million things I would like to improve. Mostly the audio quality and my terrible, terrible accent. 😅
Alas, perfect is the enemy of the good, isn't it. So, here we go.

Very nice! The cross-ratio is one of my favorite less well-known topics. With the Mobius transformation view, we can see that the cross-ratio of four complex numbers is real if and only if they lie on the same line or circle.

when i was younger, every time i tried to get some bit of projective geometry, it was just a mysterious mess to me. well, maybe, i could remember something, do formulas, make some constructions, but the essence was still unaccessible. now, when some maths intuition settled in my head, i am starting to rediscover a lot of mathematical concepts, so videos like this are very useful not for getting some rigid knowledge (you may always read a textbook or a Wiki page for this purpose) but learn some motivation of a concept, get the intuition, highlight the connections with other math stuff and well, really understand what's going on. so i'd like to thank a lot the author for the video, it really uncovered some bits of information needed to order my previous knowledge. thank you and good luck in developing the channel!

@@sumandproduct I love the music, tactical fading in and out like 3blue1brown would be more effective as you build the story of this amazing projection topic. I have been very curious about this subject with blender and fspy for a couple of years and you satisfied my curiosity. Now please do go into the 10 minute long explanation about why infinity works as 1! Btw I worked at an architecture company that used to leverage these concept with CAD to draw projective lines and create view transformations manually from other 2D horizontal cad views in the larger model space that contains multiple views by utilizing Construction lines which are infinite... Deep world of line projection is fascinating and useful in transformation of images. Linear algebra has a great way of doing these transformations but this video's content doesn't really require anything beyond what is taught in elementary school, which makes it so beautiful for the math community.

@@pa.l.2499 Thank you very much! I think you can get the most out of these projective transformations when you mix the linear algebra approach and this pen-and-paper approach. But for the video I tried to stay in the latter realm completely, as it makes it more approachable, as you mentioned.

@@sumandproduct I concur that in the future you have to set the music at much lower level, or actually not use music. Occasionally you swallow consonants, such as around 1:10 where your script says 'square length' but it ends up sounding as 'skwele'. Between that and your german accent: the viewer neets a couple of brain cycles more to get to the words you are saying. Yeah, there is a trade-off there. Pronouncing everything would sound ponderous (Related subject: video by Tom Scott : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qu4zyRqILYM.html ) In the case of 3blue1brown I see the music used as part of the brand; the narration is soothing, the music is soothing. For minutephysics too I regard the music used not as part of the video as such, but as part of the brand. Personally I tend to prefer minimalism.

@JohnDlugosz

I recall from a drafting & architecture class in high school that the formula for measuring along the axis in perspective was something simple involving the cosine function. I suppose that was an approximation. When I took computer graphics in college, I recall the extra dimension allowing perspective transformations, and that moving a parameter changed the perspective; but I don't recall any formula for how that relates to the vanishing point.
@sumandproduct
@sumandproduct Год назад
I can't be sure, but I don't recall any formulas using cosine or sine for this. A possibility is that it was orthographic projection; what you did in high school. And I'm sure there are plenty of explicit complete formulas for all this used by graphics programmers. But I usually stitch together everything I need using these steps.

@johnno4127 Год назад
When I did a perspective drawing in high school, I tried to make a street with many (a dozen or so) buildings of equal width. I used the Fibonacci sequence to measure out their respective widths and it looked good enough. I now wonder how it aligned to this reality of math.

Yea, I use all of this when drafting and/or illustrating all the time. This is core artisan measurement and partitioning. Thing is, I was forced to figure it out by myself. I ended up creating a chart of 'natural' divisions with this method (from corner to centerline) - with a really weird holdout of 3/11 which is more likely an exotic number stuck in between 1/3 and 1/5. There are some other exotic ones out there ( like 4/7 ), but not until you get to the point this method is no longer useful. You will also stumble over the link between music theory, resonance, and design theory just sitting in the middle of all of this - as these natural divisions are how the old artisans basically did everything - and it will also make things like the "imperial" measurement system make a WHOLE lot more sense and base 12 numerical systems in general. Copy all of that on top of Babylonian 60-divison clocks and how that translated into its own unique measurement system and - boom - you got the background for so much of our technological progress. I love this stuff, and its nice to see other people talking about it. I have a whole "Artisan Cheat Sheet" that I post regularly for other artists/craftsmen to use as it can be really hard to find this information collected or easily digested - as computers pretty much killed this whole way of thinking.

great video, but we're a bit confused about the start of the "school method" section... how do you equally divide the auxiliary line in a way that doesn't also work directly on the original line?
@sumandproduct
@sumandproduct Год назад
Do you mean in the Euclidean case at the very start of the section or the start of the projective case? Let me answer both... In the Euclidean case: I used a compass. It's hard to see, but the little violet marks are circular arcs of circles with the same radius. In the projective case: I used the iterated cross-ratio construction, which was introduced at around 14:10. The idea is, that the square-splitting construction can also be used to duplicate a segment. So, from 0, 1, infinity you can get 2. Then, from 1,2, infinity you can get 3. And so on... From n, n+1, infinity you can get n+2. It's always the same construction (with different starting points, of course). But at 14:10, I re-used many of the already existing yellow lines for 3, 4 and 5. Later, in the “school” construction, I do exactly the same. But instead of starting with the segment 0 to 1, I use 0 to r because the exact numbers don't matter. Did that help?
@user-cg7zn8ey5k
@user-cg7zn8ey5k Год назад
3:05 This is correct if one assumes that there is no atmosphere or its refraction is zero. If you include the atmospheric refraction, the (horizontal) vanishing points should be a bit further above the horizon, right?
@sumandproduct

It's more like assuming there is no atmosphere. 😅 But yes, calculating where we see parallel lines meeting depends on much more than just the geometry itself.

Nice tricks I finally understood some things that were exposed to me in art class, but not in an enough mathematical way for me. Btw, i got some difficulties understanding your speach. As a non nativue english speaker, I needed all my attention to graps the sounds you were saying. I don't have this problem with most english videos, and I think it is due to 2 things. 1. The music The music is fuzzy (not sure what that mean, but dense and chaotical) and loud. For you, used to all kind of parasite noise in english, no problem But I need all the details of the speech to understand what's going on. With a little of noise, your brain can easily recover the original sounds emitted, byt my untrained brain can used those redundancy rules. 2. The micro I can't know, but it seems that your sound is a little bith saturated. Maybe it's just that I learn english with a different accent then yours Well Thank you for the vid, I hope I could help

@@sumandproduct You don't have more videos yet to show the end-screen with the two video recommendations from the same channel, yet. But you could plan for that. You could show a black screen with "Fin." typed in the center in white; then draw the grid and twist the perspective (with the writing on it) until it becomes the deeded flat line! Have an audible /beep/ when this happens flash a red "Error: division by zero. Program halted" and while that fades out also shrink the line from each end, being left with a point - clearly an homage to the original "Outer Limits" title sequence which itself is a reference to turning off old CRTs.
