  • pi is beautiful.

  • It sounds like a song when you're in a forest at night with fireflies and you're walking on water xD

  • i like pie oh wrong pi still good tho

  • @XMonument It's an autoharp

  • Whats the name of the instrument he uses at 2:37 ?

  • @mynameisjongreen well when you get down to it, whatever number frequency you'd be assigning it would mean just as little as well. If you measured the frequency in Hertz, you'd still be using a man-made, arbitrary system that has little to do with any objective laws of the universe. And using the musical scale makes it sound a lot better because these notes sound good together, while random frequencies, apart from not being playable on instruments, probably sound awful.

  • lovely

  • the first 35 seconds bored me because i already knew about it... not to be cocky or anything

  • it would make a lot more sense if you assigned the numbers of pi to corresponding frequencies, and forgot about letter notes altogether, since they don't really mean anything.
