Quaero: Principia Mathematica Animata?
Nov. 21st, 2011 02:56 pmSo I've had this idea running through my head recently: taking the images in my head which encode my understanding of mathematics, and either writing the down or (better) animating them.
If nothing else it might provide a useful resource for students who think as visually as I do, or even for those who have difficulty decoding the static drawings and too often stilted and/or formal descriptions which are a plague upon those who have language difficulties. (It would still have a voice-over, but if it were done really well, it might not even need one.)
( Here is a rough idea of a script for such an animation... )
