OK. Vi Hart’s videos are fascinating. Her new one – a topological love story about a girl named Wind and her obsession with her neighbor Mr. Ug is a gem. I “got it” at about the 3 minute mark, and was enchanted with the depth of vision that went into the whole thing.
She also carves fruit into platonic solids:
Her whole web site is one of the most unusual ones I’ve seen in years. Some people are just operating on levels the rest of us can’t imagine. But with the internet, we can go along for the ride.
BTW: I posted about her earlier video here. That led to a piece about her in Tuesday’s Science Times section of The New York Times.
