@@lopesdoria Obviously the correct compromise is to make sure that the number of lasers is both a power of 2 and prime. So trash five of the lasers. Meanwhile, the number of hirees needs to be a positive integer a such that a/(b+c) + b/(c+a) + c/(a+b) = 4 has positive integer solutions...
As someone who studied production and works in theatre it's kinda fun to watch someone (likely representative of most of the population) point at positions and call them funny (to me) names
Idea: People may FAX in their own mathematical errors during the interval, and they have to bring in their own FAX machine if they want to do this. Phone jack sockets will be provided.
Idea: Hand out carefully co-ordinated peices of paper with numbers and letters (cut in half) to audience members and utalise them to form an old-school split-flap display. This idea is very weakly related to the show in any regard.
Yeah a single 360 degree camera would be great as an extra cut to see it as the audience does. Those of us with headsets can feel like we were there. Please and thank you
I think your new hire needs her own pawducational channel. 🐾 after all she has 4 legs which is not only a power of 2, but the square of Matt’s legs - hence clearly superior.
oh! "The Car" is a Tesla. As a stockholder, environmentalist and father, I thank you. Also: LASERS! pewpewpew

It looked familiar and I looked for clues and found the T logo in the corner of the window! I'm glad I'm not the only one in the comments talking about Matt driving a Tesla :)
The channel is Matt_Parker_2 Pi is 3 when rounded Matt is 4 letters There were 5 of you in the room Parker is 6 letters 7 lasers 8 cameras just need something for 9
Wow....that soon blew out of controll. Im sorry for all of my ideas. I hope they at least bring a mild amount of amusement to you or those viewing the comments.
If you have 7 lasers, you'll need one additional laser pointer, just to make it a power of 2.
No no no. You are doing it all wrong. The number of hirees must be a power of 2, but you should make sure the number of lasers is always prime.
7 is prime, but personally I also agree that powers of two is the way to go.
@@georgeprout42 No, no, no, a power of 2 number of lasers would use just too much of power.
7 lasers is perfect, you only need 3 bits to count it. 1 more and you'd have to increase your space by a 3rd

You obviously need 1024 cameras so you can do matrix bullet time.

Hey Matt! How about adding a 3d (stereoscope) front row recording for those of us with the ability to watch it?
Idea: Instead of being given seat numbers, the audience will be given maths puzzels to solve in order to discover their seat number
Idea: People may FAX in their own mathematical errors during the interval, and they have to bring in their own FAX machine if they want to do this. Phone jack sockets will be provided.
"We're now both absorbing and emitting too much light"
Idea: Hire Hannah Fry as to make mathematically themed cocktails at the bar
Should've stoped at 7 cameras, so you'd have a prime focus lens
Idea: Stock a vending machine with calculators and place in the lobby of the theatre.
Still love how we paid more for spelling errors in our names xD Matt, you're my kind of nerd x3
I'd like my name Parkerised, please. 🙂
Matt signed a copy of one of his books for me in binary a few years ago, can't believe he spelt my name without me having to pay more, lucky me.
Looking forward to the show.
Idea: Hold a maths competition at the show and use a small proportion of the backer's money to pay for a large apple Pie
I recognize him from that one Tom Scott video
very much hope there's room left in the budget to fly Destin from SmarterEveryDay over for a project 🌸
Congratulations on your project and 1M Subscribers on main channel!!!
Wait, is it done? Yay! 👍🏻
As someone whose favorite prime number happens to be 7, I am glad that there are at least seven lasers.
It's April and I'm still waiting on the christmas tree video
Woo love seeing stuff i didn’t help pay for! But in all seriousness good luck yall
If you pair all of the cameras can you make the video in 3D?
.......i have so many lasers and cameras but you arnt coming to the chicago area...:( also your tour dates isnt parsing the php [calendar id=”38″]
Matt I have a black magic ursa if you wanted to add
oh my god, Sky has gotten so big!!!
Will the recording be available outside of Kickstarter? Will it cost anything?
Yeah, he's said in the other videos that it will be available as a digital download and it will be cheaper than the £6 kickstarter.
@@OscarCunningham hm, I've missed that. Can you point me to where he said it, please?

7 is a Mersenne prime. :)
Ha! Releasing this at 1 am. But I gotcha, woke up sick very early. Take that! ;) Awesome to see mr. laser guy as well.
Idea: Hire some animators to animate/produce visualizations for some of the errors described in the book, and thus show
Idea: Humble pi USB stick unboxing video

Idea: Give £500 to your wife Lucy for all the amazing support she shows you! :D
Hiring Skylab sounds like nepotism to me. I demand a full enquiry.
Idea: Have a party on stage with Brady Harren

Playing this UA-cam video turns my screen orange. Only this video.
Idea: Project some lasers onto the outside of the building? (may not work under June daylight conditions)
Yay! Just got tickets! I go to UCL so that's a very convenient theatre for it 😂
This is the only time I've been sad to be in Australia....😭
Consider contracting someone to subtitle the thing
Get ucl geomatics dept to do a 3d scan of the theatre and do maths with projection mapping and augmented reality!

The Great Battle of Cameras and Lasers, coming soon.
Damn, congrats on getting ~10x the initial value of the kickstarter.
I’m going to spell my name incorrectly on the form and get that upgrade for free!
What if he notices and corrects it for you?
Nah, who cares 'bout them fancy powers of 2. Mersenne primes forever!
as someone who works in the event industry, Camera's don't like lasers. 1 beam in the lens is a bad camera. Also, 7 lasers is nothing. try at least 42
You're going to need a $1M (yes I know, it's GBP) bonus level...
The channel is Matt_Parker_2
Pi is 3 when rounded
Matt is 4 letters
There were 5 of you in the room
Parker is 6 letters
7 lasers
8 cameras
just need something for 9
Idea: Make a printed version of the book, but scalled up by x3.14159265359...........
Yes, please also pay yourself, so hopefully you can keep doing this ... all.

Good car choice.
who got the most spelling mistakes? i got 8 lmao but i bet someone with more money than me got more
