The 3Blue1Brown Summer of Math challenge (previously) is now wrapped up. Let's see the results!
(Also previously and previously.)
(Also previously and previously.)
The full list.
What an amazing project! An amazingly successful project.
I kinda wish there was some categorization. The winners and runners up in the video sound fascinating, I'll certainly watch the one on bezier curves that he almost disqualified as being too good and too popular. The youtube math videos are so good someone really needs to create a full on foundation to curate, categorize (on several vectors such as approachability, topic, prerequisites) and archive/save from any possible future youtube meltdown.

The Bézier curve video is sublime. Perhaps among the very best math instructional videos one can find online.

Also sorta recently 3blue1brown did: When do programmatic visuals help in understanding math? 3b1b, SIGGRAPH 2021 Featured Speaker - YouTube.
I kinda wish there was some categorization.
This is why this US weirdo uses 'maths' instead of 'math'. What would be your categorization????
The Bézier curve video was "wow" enough to post. I figure most of the other mathsy people probably watch the same videos that I do. Legit "almost too good to miss" best of the web.
