Great video! I love Escher's work. I'm still amazed that he wasn't a mathematician!
This paired to the music of Morricone is perfection.
Awesome! By complete coincidence, i'm sitting at my desk studying coxeter groups and saw this as some suggested video! Don't get chances like that usually, most of the mathematician's work i've studied were long gone before film. Anyway it's a sign, back to the work!
I was just doing some exercises from his book lmao.
I've read several of Coxeter's books and he is one of my favorite math writers. Neat to see at least one video of him. Now where is that Gauss video ?
Coxeter the legend.
RIP, he was a legend
I am the 444 like! Numbers have meanings. H. S. M. Coxeter introduced me in HyperSpace by Koji Miyazaki from Kyoto University. Donald was friends with Professor Emeritus Steve M. Slaby of Princeton University. Thank you for boat loads of pleasant memories.

Incredible to find this video!
Math + creepy music
Sounds Great!
Perfect background music for this. This exposition feels very much the way my mind works.
I'm a fan, loved regular polytopes from dover
What's the song at the end?? I love it so much!
Wonderful fella.
great
The music is so cool
WHATSTHAT MUSIC?!!?!?!
Ominous music with the angels and demons. Ok, makes sense. Ominous music with the fish. Huh?
God! I got a headache . I'm not kidding. too much spinning
Who in hell, are the two that don't like this. lol
