My slightly random interest in juggling seems to have been revived recently by Stewart Brand who came to my school to give a talk on environmentalism and started off by showing the rather famous clip of Chris Bliss' juggling finale (Golden Slumbers). Juggling might seem like a completely irrelevant and useless "skill", and in many respects it is. But it seems like most of the people I know who juggle reasonably well are scientists or mathematicians (head of physics at my school, a biology teacher at my school, some guy on a poster in my maths teacher' classroom), and there appear to be lots of fascinating parallels between juggling and maths. So in a way juggling is a unique activity combining skill, dexterity, coordination and performance with an intellectual allure irresistible to scientists and mathematicians. ... and for the sake of some hilarity I've made a Youtube vid. Enjoy!

Order:

1. Cascade, MM, BM, RR

3. Box

MM = Mills Mess

  • what kind of balls are you using?

  • I'm using Mr Babache stage balls (72mm). They're my first set of stage balls (was using tennis balls / thuds beforehand) and I really like them :)
