    Wish I’d been taught math in a visual way, I might have liked and understood it- very cool.

      Yes, most mathematicians see and understand the concepts visually.  It is a shame that the math educators don’t all take advantage of visual ways of teaching and testing.

    If I thought they’d actually watch it, I’d forward this to all those people who look at me funny when I say there actually is art in math.

    I am by no means a math geek… and this was amazing.  Truly amazing.  My hubby had talked to me about Fibonacci spirals but this just cemented it visually.  Very cool!

    I could never understand why some people claim that science takes all the wonder and awe out of the world. This video is wonderfully awesome!
