How to draw squiggles like a Hilbert. Here is a program you can play with that draws Hilbert Curves: www.khanacademy... My personal website, which you might like: vihart.com
When some brilliant yet overly charming TH-camr commits a weirdly cute analepsis (repeating a word for emphasis) until the word ceases to seem to have meaning, that's called Semantic Satiation. It's also called that under other, parallel conditions. Google Chrome's dictionary actually knew "TH-camr". We live in a bizarre, futuristic world of second person singular potatoes.
"14 hours ago" Didn't think i'd see such a recent comment so high up on an 11 year old video, impressive! Anyway i'd rather be drawing fractals then learning about how to graph a line or something like that
I do this is math class a lot actually, without even knowing the fractal implications of it. I started because of the square squiggles reminding me of the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
OrphanCrippler isn't a swastika a symbol from buddism? I mean, I know Hitler's symbol and all that stuff but in the end that one is religious, so you should not be in trouble at all. Hopefully. Did you get in trouble?
+Caramel Kitten actually the Hitler one has a slant. +Chicken Buff3t there were both left- and right-facing swastikas before Hitler. +everyone it was actually a Hindu symbol before it was a Buddhist one. It's very old.
kourii It goes even deeper than that. It was also found in Roman designs, greek designs, ancient polytheistic designs, etc. etc., and even Judaism up until... you know....
@@curry5136 Svastika is not originating from Buddhism but from Hinduism. Although Buddhism does originate from Hinduism. Buddha was at one point a Hindu king.
So I'm rewatching this for the first time in a few years and last time I saw it I guess I assumed that the first orderly squiggle (the one from the train) was some famous curve (even though it's not curvy) and learned how to do it. Vi, I've drawn this on entire whiteboards (more than once). I have notebooks filled with this stuff. I vote to name this the Vi Hart Squiggle (or curve if you prefer). All in favour?
I wish there's like a video of her talking about this for an hour like this is better than Math. This helps artist to build muscle memory to draw clean lines.
I love how you took something as seemingly simple as squiggles and threw a bunch of math into it in a way that made sense. Who would've thought that squiggles could get so complex? It was also really funny.
I love how your videos are about basically nothing, but are still so mathematic! It makes me so happy to see math used so creatively, even if not with a theorem or a strict definition. Such a cool channel, this is really inspiring!
I love that this just popped into my recommended nearly a decade after the first time i watched it, very nostalgic! This channel inspired some very fun doodles when I was in high school and I now find myself wanting to dig up some graph paper and start squiggling again haha
I watched this yesterday and spent all of class doing space filling squiggles on my graph paper, which was really fun! But I had to watch it again today because I forgot the hilbert curve.
Wow... I'm a mechatronics engineer and I feel perfectly happy sitting here watching a girl narrate squiggles on a page... is this what fulfilment feels like?
I had this on my recommended. I thought it was going to be a cute a silly way to pass time, now I feel like I just learned the entire development of the universe in 5:26.
1. What's the difference between the Hilbert Curve and the Peano Space Filling Curves? 2. I've been drawing fractal curves on graph paper long before I knew anything more about fractals. Only recently have I been transforming them into snakesnakesnakes. I want to buy ViHart t-shirts... lol... I can imagine they'd be filled with fractal dragons, hexaflexagons, and of course, snakesnakesnakes.
+Nathan Nguyen (currently Beau) The appropriate next step is to remind you of the ancient internet law to have good standards rather than correct standards, which was to save space and avoid flamewars. Unfortunately this reminder does neither of those. But it's like some fractal addiction I have, just like yours. But this fractal doodle takes two people.
My cousin who is LITERALLY SIX walked up to me saying they wanted to be like Hilbert because he made squiggle math, then introduced me to this video. Congrats, you taught a six year old complex math.
I like your brain. Connection upon connection I never even dreamed of thinking about, but now that I know about I wish I had. If for no other reason than for that wonderful feeling you get, I get, when I make a connection.
how can our eyes be real if we are not real how can we be real if none of our universe is real. none of this is real not even the matrix or any other virtual reality is real. we could all be a simulation inside a fly's brain and we wouldn't even know
I found this video YEARS ago probably around the time it was posted, and that squiggle method of filling in every box has stayed with me and since then i keep graph paper on me whenever i feel like procrastinating Thank you for making this video :)
I used to have friends.. Then I went "Let's each make an iteration and put them together". On the upside, I know have much more freetime to make more squigglies!
A lot of the patterns created with the squig-a-squigles look really similar to patterns found on traditional folk art or folk costumes. It's interesting to wonder if our ancestors knew about the mathematics behind their patterns. The 15 square squiga tree closely resembles the 'Autras' or 'Life' tree of the Latvian folk tradition. It's kind of interesting too, if you look at loom patterns used traditionally and how they look when plotted out on graph paper. I like it, it's an interesting coincidence and someone smarter than I can probably say more about it.
The crazy thing about this is that it leads to an adaptive grid in simulations. This is how fluid dynamics and sound waves propagate in a compressible fluid. And that means that the squiggles can subdivide into smaller squiggles for more detail in the simulation.
Am I the only one who’s part of the “used to watch and really really enjoy their videos years ago and then completely forgot they existed until recently TH-cam decided to recommend them again and you’re just hit with a wave of nostalgia” gang?
+TaiChiKnees To be fair, she probably takes a really long time to write these. Asking a teacher to follow the shittily strict common core system AND incorporate effective comedy is like asking the president of a notorious company to listen to every single bit of jargon and banter that everyone tells them, and when I say everyone I mean EVERYONE. Essentially it's a herculean task that no human being could actually attempt to keep going for very long. Sometimes you just gotta be interested in the subject.

Oh TH-cam! Why have you put this masterpiece of a video in my recommendation page? I have no complaints about this. My brain is somehow comprehending and not comprehending this at the same time.
The inception-squiggle is a bit like Mandelbrots fractals, the deeper you look, the more dimensions you find, all repeating what has been before in a bigger scale. Err...
The more some people talk and try to sound mature..the more immature they sound..I'm referring to the certain comments below.You know who you are i'm sure.
Can't tell if she's crazy or just a genius and I can't comprehend what she's doing. Either way, fascinating.
JOhn Johnson shes a genius
JOhn Johnson like really really rrreeeeaaalllyy smart
the line between genius and crazyness is absurdely thin xS
absurdly thin, or a fiction imposed by society?
Probably depends on the kind of craziness, honestly.
Both. That's why her videos are so great
My math teacher literally showed us this in class.... never again shall I get in trouble for my doodles!
Doodling in math class in math class?
+Josh Poissant Yup lol, he told us if we want to doodle just do this
I'm homeschooled so this can be my schoolwork when everrrrrr I want😉

Don't you hate it when you use all your graph paper for doodles then when you actually need it you have none?
