David is one of my most favorite guests on Numberphile, Brady. I am so happy to see him on Objectivity. Perhaps a future discussion with Dr. Eisenbud regarding hyperdeterminants and multidimensional matrices is appropriate?
O... M... G..., David Eisenbud has a VELVET voice, too?! Can we just have a twenty minute episode of David and Keith having a one-on-one conversation about, oh, I don't know, ANYTHING?
It gives me butterflies to my stomach seeing the actual handwriting of brillant mathematicians and physicists of previous generations. It is kind of sad that next generations won't be able to do the same with scientists of our time, papers being typed today. (PS Dr. Eisenbud is such a gentle person, i love to see him in your videos.)
Many physicists still do alot of algebra in hand, of course it never gets published in that form, but i bet you could still find some stuff like this among physicists. Especially the older guys.
Have you ever made a video about the history and architecture of the physical building? Was it purpose-built or procured? Was it extended? Were extra basements dug out?
2021, after rewatching this I looked up Arthur Cayley and discovered he was born in 1821, so it's been his bicentenary this year! No details in Wikipedia about Cayley's family, so no clues, alas, as to who he was mourning in 1869, whether a wife or a child.
Never ceases to amaze me. Yet another excellent video, that gets several dislikes. Are there people who literally go through as many YT videos as possible, and just Thumbs Down every one they can? Quite what is it that some (ok, only 3 as of now, but the principle stands) people dislike about this video? Is it just bad mouse control.."meant to click Like but hit Dislike by accident"? Or just pure malice? I despair of humanity sometimes!
PBS (in the UK) last night showed a film about Benjamin Franklin's LITERAL "skeletons in the closet", a cache of bones in his old house, and Keith popped up! Increasingly the TV star!
The 23 fundamental thingies wouldn't have anything to do with the number of dimensions string theory started out with right? I remember from numberphile's -1/12 video that 12 has some significance and string theory is down to 11 dimensions now iirc?
ooh, the books... precious more than diamonds... can we copies the original... would the royal society allow for this... I think a digital copy put online will be highly appreciable.

I would love to see that!
Brady please get David Eisenbud to do a Numberphile video on determinants.

YASSSS. I would love that too.
Same with Neil Sloane
For anyone who hasn't searched him out already, his extended videos on Numberphile are easy to fall asleep to.
Just struck me how well these videos are produced now.
Cheers!

Don't want to be that guy here, give the man his proper title, he's earned it
Oh sorry you are right, Dr. Eisenbud (I think it is what you meant?)
Many physicists still do alot of algebra in hand, of course it never gets published in that form, but i bet you could still find some stuff like this among physicists. Especially the older guys.
When were papers ever published in handwritten form?
Lasse true I didn't think about that, let's hope some of it gets well conserved so that people can have a look at it in the future and enjoy it

John Dee Thanks.
It’s been done
I could listen to Dr Eisenbud talk for hours, I love his voice
7:49 Cayley put the FUN in Fundamental

0:51 Love that studio portrait. His hand is "resting" on a balustrade which is painted on a flat background. Nineteenth century version of photoshop?
Keith is the head librarian but... how many librarians are there in total?
Typically five. Left leg, right leg...

@@prassel6189 Voltron doesn't have a front limb? There is a honking big sword but I'm not sure that counts.
Hell yeah, I'm glad you got professor Eisenbud to do a video on this channel. Great work you guys.🍻
I could listen to a podcast of Keith reading old scientific papers. It would be the most relaxing thing ever.
An Australian, an American and an Englishman walk into a.. library.
objectivity videos tend to have especially high like:dislike ratios. what a great channel!
This guy's way of speaking reminds me so much of my grandfather.
I love this video
Thanks for watching!
Another very enjoyable video I didn't understand! I love the way that 23 was so nicely written with an ink pen too.

It was a key part of the letter, so it had to be clearly written.
My dad was very much into calligraphy, it just touched a chord as being so well done :-)
I could listen to Dr.Eisenbud talk about math all day.
2:12 That's Richard Wagner without the neckbeard
3:50 Matrizes can be used to solve systems of equations, that's why they're used everywhere. :)

You may enjoy our own episode on that very topic! th-cam.com/video/XJa3g2Pr9LQ/w-d-xo.html
He was always my favourite character in “Minder”
That synchronized head turn at the beginning though
At the beginning; the poor guy looks like he's trying not to fall over as he's watching Brady rock back and forth
Not to be creepy, but I’d love to smell those old books.
I love the golden ratio Shirt of Brady's. Any tips where i can get one just like it?
Mourning Covers are something a good Philatelist should know about.
I think you meant director of the Spiritual Home of Numberphile.
David sounds like Mr Burns.
The 23 fundamental thingies wouldn't have anything to do with the number of dimensions string theory started out with right? I remember from numberphile's -1/12 video that 12 has some significance and string theory is down to 11 dimensions now iirc?
0:55 Would anyone join me in a crusade to bring back that hairstyle?
I knew some of those words
I want to know more about Author Cayley. And his math.
You made a T shirt out of the flower pattern thingy!
I am fairly certain Keith could pull that oiled down hair look, if he hasn't already tried it
ooh, the books... precious more than diamonds... can we copies the original... would the royal society allow for this... I think a digital copy put online will be highly appreciable.
I like the Invariant Theory.
Before I watch, is this the same Cayley that Cayley tables are named after?
Waaaah old maths!!
David and Keith actually look a lot alike!
Those were the days when you could take the grant money and say I would publish the results at a later time
Marvel: Infinity Wars is the biggest crossover in history.
Objectivity: hold my gloves.
David Eisenbud's voices sounds like a deeper version of Mr. Burns.
Montgomery Burns
Yey.
Brady PLEASE get a 4K camera!
twins?
