I really love the music in this one. It sounds rather nostalgic, makes me sad and happy at the same time. FYI, it is called "Stella By Starlight", soft intro.
Oh. My. God. It *IS* STELLA BY STARLIGHT WTF I saved this so long ago for the music not even realizing it was one of my favorite Jazz standards- it’s just missing the melody!! And the instrumentation and voicings were so foreign I never realized. The best part is I saved this in a playlist for a dnd game I run set during the jazz age, not as a jazz song, but for some specific trippy/magic moments, but god it just makes exem more sense now; it’s like taking the music if the period and reimagining it, just like how I took the period and reimagined it for my game!!!
I was wondering why the music sounded so familiar, and I think I figured out it’s because the beginning sounds almost identical to the beginning to Something About Us by Daft Punk- well, identical to me, but idk
I'm in 4th year and I have 0 idea what this is but it looks very beautiful little did I know that math can create such mesmerizing art just from numbers, this video changed my whole perspective on mathematics and made me learned to love it, truly amazing!
It's simple. Ray collisions against an ellipse. It looks damn amazing though, like the top comment says, I literally expected to see geometry not have a spiritual experience
@arjunjain87 well i wouldn't actually say it's simple. Maybe to someone familiar to vector mathematics but like, I'm sorry that guy is like that. He just doesn't have the empathy yet to understand. Anyways, he's right that rays are reflected at the walls just like a mirror. If you set a mirror face up on a table and look straight down at it you'll see yourself. But as you lower yourself to the side of the mirror you'll see progressively lower and lower angles of reflection. We say that for reflection, the incoming angle is equal to the outgoing angle, measured from the plane of the mirror. Or if you're familiar with coordinates, the y coordinates are reflected back up like the absolute value function while the x coordinates keep going. The changing input angle thing is just the specific place and direction that they start the light ray. They let each ray trace out a shape for a while, make that a frame of the video, and then move the starting ray abs run the the simulation again. The reason the shape changes is because it takes different paths through reflection. You can see the shape change drastically as it passes through the focal points. As displayed earlier, when the ray starts moving such that it passes between the two focal points (white dots) it will always cross from top to bottom between the two dots. When it starts outside of the dots, it will never cross between the two dots. It's just a fancy simulation to display how cool it looks while it changes location.
I feel like I’m uncovering the universe’s deepest secrets… Edit: Yes, of course I know this isn’t LITERALLY the universe’s deepest secret. It’s just a joke I made because of the feeling you get from the music. Please calm down, people.
The universe isn't perfectly round, let alone our galaxy. Technically, the black hole at the center of our galaxy and/or universe, which has become less of a theory, thanks hubbel, may have an elipse-like gravitational field. I dont have the sources for that though, so don't take my word for it if you don't want to.
These are actually pretty close to resonances! They're states close to being orbits of the mapping, and like most things in chaos theory they have some great properties. For example, under some "niceness" conditions, the existence of a single 3-period orbit esonance implies the existence of orbits of all other size, including infinity and chaos.
YEAH FR this specific genre is so fascinating to me. the music here, the weird incomprehensible vibes, the colors.... similar vibes to the unsettling colors and sounds in videos like "turning a sphere outside in" and that sort of thing. i NEED to find more content like this. i NEED to be perceived as this vibe idk it fascinates me so much.
If you draw the lines from the foci to any point on the ellipse, the normal at that point is at an equal angle to both lines. So a ray from one focus is reflected towards the other. Likewise a ray outside one focus is always reflected outside the other one, same for inside. Simple in theory, but mind-blowing when visualized.
It won't, because this isn't memeable and the audience watching these videos out of actual interest is too small. Most comments on topology videos like sphere inside out is just meme lords with dumb comments.

U don't need 4 years of physics just learn about refraction and total internal reflection and you'll be able to know easily what's Happening. Ofcourse if you got fascinated by those topics u can get into a 4 year degree program 👌👍😉
I just wanted to watch a video, with someone having fun with an ellipse, then all of a sudden I'm questioning my own existence, and wondering if I live in parallel universe.
The music makes me feel like I am being reflected forever off of the interior of an ellipse and outside of the focal points. Just sayin. I cant get out
Even for someone who already knows how an ellipse and its focii work, this is a superb illustration. Especially for demonstrating reflections that *don't* go through the focii.
