Today, a long overdue foray into the realm of VORTEX MATHEMATICS :)

00:00 Intro

04:16 The vortex

08:10 The maths of remainders and digital roots

13:25 Demystifying the vortex

16:30 A matter of base. The 8 fingered Tesla.

19:21 Explanation why the digital root is the remainder on division by 9

24:01 Tristan's challenge

24:44 The magic of modular multiplication maths

25:19 Intuition for multiplier - 1 petals

28:23 Thank You!

Coding competition:

My wish list for the modular times table diagram app:

-Being able to color line segments according to length.

-Indication of the "direction" of multiplication. 1x2 = 2 and so there should really be a little arrow from 1 to 2 not just a simple connection :)

-different loops in different colors.

...

Here is the prize, a copy of my and Marty's new book.

A really nice article about various ways to generate the cardioid by Dave Richeson

Nice debunking/demystifying article about vortex math by "Professor Puzzler"

What I am talking about in this video is really just the tip of a bizarre mathematical iceberg that most mathematically minded people are completely unaware of. Have a look at this presentation by Marko Rodin on vortex math (beware serious nutty and at the same time truely beautifully presented numerology ahead :) A LOT more than is usually reported on in popular YouTube videos.

In turn this iceberg is just another tip of an even bigger iceberg of mainly wishful thinking. Have a look: https://sciencetosagemagazine.com/category/library/
