minutephysics I had the pleasure of talking about the surprising physics of a violin virtuoso's playing technique with my friend Daniel Kurganov - check it out! (7 days ago)
 
 
minutephysics Hi everyone, we made an awesome T-shirt of the dissonance graph that features in the Physics of Dissonance video, so if you (like me) love music, music theory, acoustics, physics, or if you know someone who does, then go and get your shirt here: https://store.dftba.com/products/minu... I’m super pleased how much you’ve all been enjoying The Physics Of Dissonance video. It’s been great reading all of your emails and comments, and I’ve even had some fun feedback (and new references) sent to me from people in academia. (5 months ago)
 
 
minutephysics I'm giving away 14 years of drawings! All of the original drawings from my videos. TL;DR - every Patreon supporter will get a thank you print; to get an original drawing, go to https://www.patreon.com/minutephysics and sign up for the "Special Relativity" tier or above. Deadline is the end of November! The full story: I hand draw almost everything that’s on screen in my videos, mostly with real markers on real paper. Over the last 14 years(!) I’ve made more than 250 videos and now have a pretty big stack of drawings. I think the drawings will provide more value in the hands of the people who've made MinutePhysics possible, so I’m giving them away. To get an original drawing: I’m going to give an original drawing from one of my videos to anyone supporting me on Patreon at the $25 a month or higher level. If you’re already supporting me at that level or above, you don’t need to do anything besides making sure your address is updated on Patreon. You’ll get one of the drawings soon. There are other options like a signed drawing or choosing the video the drawing is from - all the info is on my patreon page. Here's the link again:  https://www.patreon.com/minutephysics I'm excited to get the drawings into your hands, Henry (1 year ago)

That was the longest "running is better" I've ever heard

Never thought I'd use: "Wetness per second," as a measuring unit.

i wanted to do my f*cking homework and now iam watching how to run through the rain

Let's appreciate those who invented umbrellas otherwise this could be the hardest physics word problem

many scientists believe using an umbrella might actually help

I was fearing he would say last minute: "so the best solution is to use an umbrella" after all the math he explained XD
stephenj9470 (2 years ago)
I've honestly wondered about this my whole life, but couldn't figure out the maths behind it. Moving upward into the rain is a great visual.

Imagine trying to get to your house in the rain, so you create an entire mathematical formula for it
