@DiamondHimself I really enjoy her doodling videos and I took it as a challenge to see just how Vi-like I could make it. That doesn't mean I'm incapable of anything but a fawning imitation.
This video shows some incredible potential. If you were to do a few videos that expanded a bit all the topics you mentioned instead of breezing over them, I'm sure they would be a huge hit. (A slightly better microphone wouldn't hurt either)
@Jdonovanford A parable is a story with a moral; Jesus Christ told a parable in which he said that it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven. Hyperbole is exaggeration; so unless you think that Christ meant that it's completely impossible for a rich man, then Christ was exaggerating. My statement was also a play on words: hyperbole sounds like hyperbola, parable sounds like parabola, ellipsis sounds like ellipse.
@lulujakub@vihart Probably sometime after civilization collapses in early 2038 due to all the robots pulling a Wall-E and thinking it's 1901, and the only thing left to do will be doodling math in the ashes.
@JoelErikGold It's isomorphic to the1x1 square. And I'm only considering the simpler problem of rectangles formed by adding on some number of squares in a direction perpendicular to the last one, not the general problem of packing rectangles with squares.
WAIT WAIT WAIT! HOLD UP! When you drew the binary tree I noticed something. These patterns are all exponential! The equation for the number of branches on each step is Y=2^x-1. When you drew the gasket and the fractions, that is 2^-x+1 I believe. I'm in eight grade :)
A fantastic homage to a fantastic original. You are both awesome, I wish I could thumbs up more than once. I also wish I could make videos this good, but you guys are clearly both a lot smarter than I!
This made my day, in the same way the Vihard videos do. Or say, a vlogbrothers Thoughts from Places video. It makes you actually think and is fun! Congrats!

So good. I saw this back when you first made it but i forgot about it. It's cool that Vi is to a Fibonacci spiral series now.

The Hyperbole in the Parable, so the Ellipsis is justified... Oh god.

Did you mean Battle Mountain Nevada? because if you did that would be awesome, not because your gasket blew out but because I live there.

Awesome! Like the drawings and the mathematics. I personally can't wait until Vi posts more of these

Any particular reason why you couldn't do something original, and decided to *completely* copy Vi Hart?

Do NOT have children with Vi Hart. The world isn't ready for that.

Wow, You are amazing! I like mathematics too but I am not as cool and creative as you and Vi Hart. What started your interest in math? :-)

I love your reference to Star Wars. I loved that cartoon, and you have inspired me to rewatch that series.

@AppReviewQ Yes, the number of nodes in a full binary tree of depth n is (2^n) - 1. Well done!
