    From 0:25 to 0:32 there is a brief portion of the circle of fifths (inspired by the rotation in the animation), with scales that spiral downwards.
    I was also inspired by the folding of the paper to create a melody that rocks back and forth. It's difficult to explain.
    Most of all, I wanted to wirte something that (hopefully!) sounded good, something beautiful, to try and capture the elegance of the pattern.

    I think it is great to see teachers who love their subjects so much they make things like this!?

    I wish this could go on forever. It's so relaxing.

    I was literally seconds away from going to bed, but I refreshed UA-cam and there's a numberphile video. You've successfully sucked me back into the black hole that is browsing UA-cam. I hope you're happy. Now I will never sleep.

    Very interesting. And I love how the programming and music are by teachers of non-musical subjects. In fact, I always love hearing about music, especially in unexpected placea.

    20 iterations. 20 freaking iterations. Flipping beautiful.

    @darkowl9 11 років тому +1

    I wrote a quick Dragon Curve generator in ActionScript once. It curved to its next position instead of being a 90 degree angle and was quite pretty.
    One thing worth noting from what I remember (it was a long time ago, around 2005 I think): If you seed the Dragon Curve with a longer set of binary choices or change the number of iterations, you can end up with some interesting variations.

    Seeing this be produced fold after fold really shows you how the who thing grows and comes about. You can also figure the pattern out.

  • @liquidgargoyle8316

    How is the music related to the dragon curve? the title sounds as if the dragon curve is made into a piece of music !?!?

    • @ipassedtheturingtest1396
      @ipassedtheturingtest1396 9 років тому +3

      That's what the composer does, as far as I know he writes many pieces realted to maths. Just look at his channel (the link is in the description)

    • @intelligentshitpastinginc
      @intelligentshitpastinginc 5 років тому +6

      Not always. In this case he says the spiraling unfolding of the Dragon curve made him think to use the Circle of Fifths. That's what this song has in it. Lots of cycle5 chord progressions, like V/V - V - I.

  • @TomMalufe
    @TomMalufe 11 років тому

    I like this song a lot compared to some of your previous songs. Not that the other songs were that bad, but they weren't my style. This soothing piece that slowly builds in complexity with the animation is very nice.

  • @monkgot45
    @monkgot45 11 років тому

    This would make an amazing screen saver. Continuing until the screen is covered and then undoing itself.. Someone with the acquired skill should do this.

    I find that watching fractal videos with my head full of [censored], can be a very deep meditation. In moderation of course.

  • @AndersGustafsson87
    @AndersGustafsson87 11 років тому

    the shape can be explained by simply folding a stip of paper many times. what you end up with is this shape of the folded paper if you look at it from the the thin end (when you unfold the paper each bend must be 90 degrees)

  • @Zeturic

    This was really cool, but I have to say that initially thought it would be some fractal music inspired by the dragon curve (I'm not sure if that even makes sense), which would've also been awesome.

    Wow, try it with with every number over 90 but less than 180 and divisible by 15 (105,120,135,150,165), youll have your mind blown, so much diversity of figures, made by the same method, but with the only difference of the angles

  • @jeebersjumpincryst

  • @Dyslexic-Artist-Theory-on-Time
    @Dyslexic-Artist-Theory-on-Time 11 років тому

    Based on (E=ˠM˳C²)∞ the Lorentz contraction of space and time is between the energy and mass. The greater the energy the greater the contraction of space and the slower time will run. Mass will increase relative to this and each ref-frame can be seen as a vortex in space formed by the rate that time flows. C² is light radiating out in all directions forming a sphere that can be squared to form the future probability. The brackets represent the boundary condition of the ref-frame within infinity!

    Nice video!
    This is an invitation to see an artist theory on the physics of light & time.
    Based on just two postulates:
    1. The quantum wave particle function Ψ or probability function represents the forward passage of time itself with the future unfolding photon by photon.
    2. Is that quantum uncertainty ∆×∆p×≥h/4π that is formed by the w-function is the same uncertainty we have with any future event within our own ref-frame that we can interact with turning the possible into the actual!

    He could be the Dragon, spreading his fiery curve because like, Dragons don't have computers? And we could be in that universe among the infinite number of universes that holds a dragon that can type, and likes youtube.
