A Well-Rested Dog

Woah, I can now make community posts!

Hello internet, it has been a wild past few weeks after the Youtube algorithm decided to put me on the spotlight for some reason. Thank you to everyone who spent the time to write me a thoughtful comment, and thank you all for the attention!

I still don't have a good idea about what to do with this sudden audience, but I know that I don't want this to be a math-only channel. If there's anything that will thematically connect the topics I might choose in the future, it'll probably be that all of my videos will try to merge multiple academic disciplines to explore one subject... because I have too many interests and have a deep understanding in none of them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm also starting my first year of college, so making videos isn't going to be my top priority. In other words, my upload schedule is almost certainly going to be really bad. Like, ‪@OverSimplified‬ bad. But if you're interested in learning about what other kinds of videos you *might* see on this channel, these are some of the future project ideas I've had so far:
1) a video about human socialization from an anthropology perspective (starting with Yuval Noah Harari's _Sapiens_) and potentially including analyses of various fiction novels loosely connected by the topic of loneliness and one's relationship with society;
2) a video about the intersection between math and art, ranging from definitions of what art is and how math discovery is an art form, to using projective geometry to make perspective art;
3) a video that'll act kind of like a part two to the calculus one, where I explore the set theory side of infinity that I left out and potentially go into more of the pedagogy of math (though I'm less fond of this one, as I am very, very far from understanding most of it, and I don't think I want to return to a topic I've been reading about all summer).

These are obviously very up in the air, but if you have any thoughts about them or any recommendations, I'd love to hear them.

All that being said, it has been an incredible experience to participate in #SoME2. Thank you so much to ‪@3blue1brown‬ for giving me the push to start and finish my project, and to David Bressoud for his research, for setting aside the time to talk with me, and for using his platforms to share my video. And to everyone else who participated in SoME2, congratulations on sludging through months of hard work and finishing a math explainer video--there were so many mind-blowing ones that I saw. Good luck to everyone who made it to the top 105 list from the peer review!

I would love to hear history stories about our understanding of every thing in the world. History of everything - number theory, algebra, abstract math, big bang, black holes, chemistry, antibiotics, epidemiology, statistics and even economics.

I’m incredibly impressed that you have such a deep understanding of calculus (probably because you seem to be the same age as me). Your explanations were incredibly engaging and I’m looking forwards to your next video! (P.S. please make a discord :D)

Your first video is so damn good man, very well-researched, well-edited, and most importantly very interesting and funny. I hope we can see another math-related videos from you again, although I'm sure that videos centered around whatever you're passionate in will be another video of great quality. So make whatever you want, and we'll be here when it's ready 👍

I would prefer options 2 or 3. By the way, I want to point out what you did incredibly well in your first video: where everybody used to provide a boring math rule, you found an adventure story to tell. I wish you can do the same again and again! And good luck for the college

@Solitary_Observer

Maybe, as a continuity to the math And art content, you should create some vids where you analyze the math in works that arent math related, in the first place. Sorry if my english is bad. Keep going :)

Kandinsky has a book that’s almost an intersection of art and math called point and line to plane

History of almost everything that isn't really connected to the world war. More like a history of math, science, art, and technologies. Because i think there are already a ton of good world war history channel
