I make comedy shows about science with Festival Of The Spoken Nerd. Here's a clip from our latest show where I use maths to live manipulate spherical footage.
We also sell t-shirts and a bunch of other stuff.

Matt: ... costs just Pi £ ...
Steve: ... costs just 1/2 Tau £ ...
I see the feud is still going strong
Yes
+
And what's wonderful is they're both correct.
@@davetoms1 But one of them is more correct in a betterer way.
Its ln (-1)/i £
Originally this was a bug, until we dicided to declare it a feature. 😂😂😂😂😂
We watched the video too
@@procactus9109 smh tsk tsk tsk
~ Every game designer ever
Which explains Windows Vista!
"This was a bug until we declared it a feature."
LOL!
Oh, Matt, I love you!
Well webcam imagery is all mirrored (while live) because people don't know how to do things when they see themselves the "right" way around. We are all used to seeing ourselves in the mirror, so Logitech. Microsoft et al by default set it that way. You can usually check a box to say no, don't flip it.
However once you save the footage you usually see it the other way around again. I wonder if this camera's software does that.
Never has bad latency looked so good.
I love that assertive Matt at 9:40
"Get them. Try again." lol
Steve: No one's laughing so I'll just lick the camera now. That's a good idea.
(Well, it did make me laugh though...)
Oh no. I'm stuck in an infinite loop between these two videos.
Pi pounds? Oh no, we'll be counting fractions of pence forever!
3 , take it or leave it
Love the τ vs π section at the end!
ττlly.
“UHHH SIR, WHEN IS THIS _EVER_ GONNA BE USEFUL... IN THE *REAL* WORLD???”
I’m sure all of the maths teachers seeing this would have heard this line said in their lesson.
Evan Blenkinsopp Except the female ones. 😃
+Benny Löfgren Okay, _fair enough!_
Me: what use is this going to be?
Maths teacher: I bet you don't ask this in your other lessons!
Me: oh, believe me, I absolutely do.
+Thomas M This was me in History: “If I have to write down “the dissolution of the monasteries”, *ONE* more time...”
If you are part of a juggling act, and all your partners call in sick... hahaha
"It was a bug, until we declared it a feature." Possibly the best line in here.
I love that you and Steve used the same script for these videos. I just watched them simultaneously, but I couldn't bear to watch the last 20 seconds. Two copies of each of you was a bit much :)
3:48 Right there! I noticed excruciating lag between the many Matts in the live feed until I thought "Could it be a feature?"
😂😂😂😂 If Matt made it across the camera's view fast enough, we could see a single Matt going right and left to infinity 😍
It’s a 4π steradians camera
2 tau steradians camera

That Linux joke was a Parker square of a joke
(watching this from linux)
he's pretty accurate
Love the Linux joke....as a Linux fan.
Have you tried systems programming in linux vs windows? Linux is so much better! Windows is like punching yourself in the face because everyone else is doing it...
Disagree, because as a Linux user, it actually made me corpse.
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
While I appreciate the fact it's on floppy, I miss the VHS release. While currency conversion and a few other things prevent me from ordering it on VHS, it being available on a format I can use is greatly appreciated. (Yes I own a VHS player)
I'd really appreciate a praxinoscope version as well!
How exactly does the floppy disk release work? The thing can only store 1.44MB, how short is this show!?
@@theblackwidower probably on a series of floppy disks?
Doesn't everybody own one?
@@mrsnufflegums You'd need at least a hundred, likely two or three hundred. And I thought Windows 95 required a lot of disk swapping.
Great stuff. I just bought a copy. Thanks, Matt!
ooooh this is finally out! thanks for the snippet and reminder to buy, I'd been waiting for it to come out
Came back to re-watch this, and I just noticed that the spherical camera even made those footballs look perfectly round.
Neat.
What a brilliant show!
G'day Matt, the DVD extra is brilliant! Thanks :-D
Love that show.
So great, Love it, Love it, Love it!!!
You are the Mat-magician!!!!
You're my favorite math nerd, Matt!
Saw the show last year - the spherical maths stuff was my favourite bit (even more than Pie Pi)
Hey, Matt. Thanks for the video.
Yay! A new DVD. Bought it. Love you guys. And too bad I can't see you live here in germany...
Amazing!
Was really fun to see you perform in Dublin!! :)
I actually found out that you can watch spherical videos on PS VR... looking at a huge Matt Parker on those good old spherical videos was quite an experience... and droste effect in VR looked awesome!
If you haven't guessed... what good about VR is that it actually projects spherical video straight into your eye as if it was coming from an actual sphere...
+Timur Sultanov I love VR. I just wish it was a bit cheaper haha.
I think Nintendo made a patent for a VR dock for the Switch... so maybe they’re planning on doing something good!
Check out wmr headsets like the lenovo explorer, they sometimes go on sale for as little as 150 USD$. They are pc vr headsets that support steamvr
Superb
I don't know why I watched this. I've already watched the full sequence of spreadsheets. It's >= awesome.
Careful where you go throwing around those six Helens. It could launch 6000 ships.
6:24 - This is the projection method I would love to see implemented into "360" cameras by Ricoh, etc.
Truly delightful viewing, this video. :)
That was pretty funny AND interesting! Sweet!
instant buy.
Fun to see a 360 cam (hello theta heheh) in use for maths demonstrations! 360 photos got me into 3d and more advanced maths. I've been playing with using the equirectangular projector from the Three.js examples. Not sure how you did this but if one wanted to do something similar, they could have three.js use video frames from a live stream of a 360 cam as textures in a 3d scene
Sooooooo funnny!!!
Oh man a jab at flat earth haha
Risque!
His Linux definition is spot on😂😂
I am 51st. Great videos Matt. Keep it up
This is amazing. XD
You didn't just copy and paste reality, you created a black hole! There's an even horizon and everything. Well done, Matt, you've doomed us all.
The DVD unboxing video was hilarious. You should put that on TH-cam.
I might release it in a month or so.
ahahha, I love that you guys are all doing the same intro joke. Actual maths ftw
I'm subed to both of you but got neither of your videos in my subbox. Wonderful.
I'm not gonna lie, I wanted him to dance and then point at the other Parker so it would look like an infinite dance-off.
I remember that bit! I saw that show! Different venue though :D
After years of watching Matt, I only just now realized how funny his name is, considering he does maths. He's Matt Math in my head now.
Got the show as soon as I got the email. Love your shows (could use bit more tau and less pi, though the pie puns are delicious I bet) and it is worth the money. I love being entertained and feeling like I am learning something and not just wasting time:)
PS: The music section is meh, I am watching it for the math;)
Finally a commenter on Matt's channel I can agree with.
Tau is already 2 much.
YAY!
Very funny matt
OKAY IS NO ONE ELSE FREAKING OUT ABOUT HOW COOL THE SPHERE+FLAT MAP PROJECTION IS
And then we have those "the Earth is flat" persons...
How many floppy discs do you need for the show? XD
227, apparently. But they only send you one of them!
@@jimmythewig3354 That is cheating XD But I understand that.
@standupmaths, I don't think you blink once during that intro. It was disconcerting..... Was it on purpose?
We edited it that way just to freak you out...
I found that, too, but when I went over to Steve's channel I had some serious deja vu. try watching them together. It's quite the enjoyment until you have to re-sync it
My eyelids stop working when I’m channeling Steve.
@@standupmaths Is that because of the pi vs tau disagreement? You could split the difference and use π/2 and symbolize it with four vertical lines protruding downward from the horizontal line (τ has one vertical line, π is half and has twice as many lines). Food for thought.
@@standupmaths hahahahahahaha
This is super neato
the full set of Floppy's is over $2000. that's insane! totally worth it, but insane.
Google says 1,440 pound is about 1,900 USD, but still pretty crazy.
I was thinking it was nightmarish enough just with one Steve XD
Was that a dig at moon landing conspiracy theorists with the "which would have been more effort"? 😊
Great show and entertainment. Now, tell me more about this DVD thing you speak of.
As soon as I patch the losetup bug in the kernel I'm going to furiously object to that unfair Linux snipe! ;-s
i love that you're familiar with the "bug or feature" game lol
Awesome to see you perform live (although I can't pretend I'm not a little disappointed I didn't make it into the DVD/Floppy release 😂).Could we get a copy of the drivers on your GitHub by any chance? I can't pretend that I'm not intrigued!
Bought a floppy, great stuff Matt! (And Helen and Steven? Stephen?)
I'm sending my CS teacher this video and telling him to pay attention to the Linux comment 😅
Was at math inspiration show today, it was good
I used to be firmly in camp tau, but Matt makes some strong arguments for pi. I'm in tau÷pi minds about it.
I really miss the calculator reviews ..:(
Have we had a graphical calculator get reviewed yet?
you know @@joe9832 , I think we do mot certainly not *coughcough* ... and I'm at a loss ... which one should I pick ???
@@Darieee Well, personally I'm using an fx-9750GII, but sadly it can't display fractions with the good ol' notation (either introduced by Euler himself or the Arabs, I can't remember) we're used to. The joys of Ebay and cheaper products!
@@joe9832 I was just teasing matt but - firstly - yes - CASIO is the king - and 2 - I'm rocking an fx-83 coming from an fx-85, and ... the 83 is way way way faster ... it must be a newer model or is allowed to gulp more current from its way bigger battery
@@Darieee You know you can overclock them right? My mate got his working at x10 its original clock speed haha
He's like the Escher of vlogging!
It's available for download in the usual places. Pirate Bay? :-)
Loved seeing this live, any ideas for a new show?
Next: we’re planning a bunch of “An Evening of Unnecessary Detail” shows and a podcast.
sourceforge net/projects/projectm/ mixed would be fun with that cam., long ago I was into the xbox360 kinect and wondered if the two could be smooshed together.
I would love to watch a show but I suppose you won't come to Germany 😢
Imagine the first seconds of the video, but the video is cropped to show just his eyes.
hi, @4.37 that 2d projection is called equirectangular not rectilinear.
I think the 'flat world' projection used later is a type of Gnomonic projection, but I could be wrong.
Steve Mould?
What? Like the Mould effect?!
Dang it Matt! I'm in Alabama but I'm in south alabama!
been using linux for 6 years. never again. all i can relate and all he said is true. world of warcraft 3d sound drivers gang :D
No appearance of the debug console? That was such a good bit of this at AEOUD.
The debug console is always an AEOUD exclusive.
Wow💕
Helen doesn't give ME a floppy disc...
The show is on floppy too ahahahah
I watched steve's video then as instructed matt's then as instructed steve's then as instructed matt's ...OH NO!!! I AM STUCK IN AN INFINITE LOOP!
dvd in 2018 :)
@standupmaths Matt, any chance we will see FotSN back at Edinburgh Fringe this year?
This bloke has made me sort of like mathematics. ~Not bad.
11:05 There's a joke here... Something about Parker Brothers...
Ehm. I can't find it.
"Linux is a bit like punching yourself in the face." Truer words were never spoken
That gave me a good laugh while lying on the bed!
All hail the Omni-Steve
First time seeing footage of you live with a shaved head... It's like a disco ball tbh
I ALMOST DIED LAUGHING
This is amazing do they still do this?
I like your wife's taste on decoration. The Sun photo is amazing ( I assume UV filter)
I still cannot get my head around the fact (not once nor up to six times) that with all this trickery they could not get the footage to be projected flipped a 180 deg over the Y axis.
8:24 Steve appears to be going slightly mad.
Have you ever been so mad that you try to devour the spherical camera?
Windows is like paying Steve Ballmer to punch you in the face. Mac is like paying Tim Cook to kick you in the nuts.
Hey Matt! I’m from Brasil and I really like all of your videos. Is there any way for me to buy and watch your show? (Sorry about my English 😂)
Glad you like the videos! The download on our shop should work in Brasil: shop.festivalofthespokennerd.com/collections/frontpage/products/30075105-3676-45b8-9997-6316d74b6ac3
Thanks!!
You could call it a 41253 deg^2 camera, a 4pi steradian camera, or a 1 spat camera.
I would buy as floppy if I had anywhere to play it!
It comes with a free HD download if you’re a quitter!
