    As many others have stated, thank you for making this very easy to understand. It's fascinating how many bad profs there are out there attempting to teach this. If you think about it, it's not that hard but for some reason, many people struggle to explain this properly because they do not spend the time like you did to make it accessible. Again, thank you for doing this.

    Starting from 10:06 when you starting evaluating the integral & on the second line, the last part should have read: -0.5*TAU*cost t, because your're integrating w.r.t. TAU. Anyways, thanks v. much for all your efforts. God bless!

    Little known fact: the verb for convolution is "to convolve," which means to roll something together. Although it absolutely also "convoluted" the two functions - meaning making something more difficult to understand, it is not what it intend to do :-D

      Use trigo. Identities
      from sin(T)sin(t-T)
      let A=T & B=t-T
      Then Subtract to get sinAsinB:
      cos(A-B) = cosAcosB + sinAsinB
      cos(A+B) = cosAcosB - sinAsinB
      cos(A-B) - cos(A+B) = 2sin(A)sin(B)
      sin(A)sin(B) = 1/2[cos(A-B) - cos(A+B)]
      Then Substitute: (A = T ; B = t-T)
      sin(T)sin(t-T) = 1/2{cos[(T) - (t - T)] - cos[(T) + (t - T)]}
      Then you get:
      sin(T)sin(t-T) = 1/2[cos(2T - t) - cos(t)]
