Doodling in Math Class: Infinity Elephants This is "Doodling in Math Class: Infinity Elephants" by Vi Hart on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

I learned from her Patreon that Vi Hart has just deleted her 1.5M-subscriber YouTube channel. The worsening of YT’s policies for creators finally reached her breaking point. To help herd folks to her videos’ new home, here’s a link to an early favorite of mine.

YouTube video by TEDx Talks Five Principles of Extraordinary Math Teaching | Dan Finkel | TEDxRainier

The theme of this year's International Day of Mathematics includes creativity.

When I think of creativity, I am reminded of part of this wonderful TED talk from @mathforlove.bsky.social.

It shows what happens when we nurture creativity in mathematical thinking.
