Doodling in Math Class: Triangle Party

Gorgeous animation of Auditory Transduction

So what hes saying is that our ear does a physical Fourier transform on the auditory signals its receiving.......cool!

Well, yes! The tonotopic mapping of the cochlea is kindof like that. When you start considering all of the other signal processing 'tricks' the auditory system uses (frequency dependent filtering, neural integration on spacial and temporal scales, otoacoustic emissions, etc) it gets way cooler! I just wish I could find an animation for those.


not sure about animation, but vihart's video goes into more detail on this

it makes for a good follow-up

Doodling in Math Class: Squiggle Inception

What pi sounds like if the numbers are replaced with notes

Sagemind says...

For those interested:

Composing using binary numbers as rhythms can create music that is both interesting and accessible. I shall demonstrate, using whimsical examples, that binary numbers and music can indeed live in harmony.

Pi Is (still) Wrong.

Vi Hart — Blog
http://vihart.com/

I am a recreational mathemusician currently living on Long Island, NY.

I like most creative activities that involve making a lot of noise, mess, or both. Aside from composing, I love improvising on various instruments, drawing, sculpting, and other methods of making things. My main hobby is mathematics, with special interests in symmetry, polyhedra, and surreal complexity. This usually manifests as collaborative research in computational geometry and other areas of theoretical computer science, or as mathematical art. I think the human brain is incredible and strange, so I have developed a great interest in dreaming and consciousness. As a result, I am a trained hypnotist and a lucid dreamer. The human body is pretty neat as well, so I enjoy dancing and judo. I always love to learn new things—variety is the food of creativity!
