Doing The Thing You Love...

Just a couple of videos today pertaining to the love of math....

A few days back I linked to a brief audio of Steven Strogatz speaking at the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and now a YouTube video of the ceremony has been uploaded, so once again enjoy Steven spending a few minutes talking about doing what he loves doing (...and how quantum mechanics and an emancipating mother guided him there):




Not sure exactly how old this 2nd video is (or if I may have linked to it in the past), but another wonderful older offering from the BBC Horizon series, entitled "A Mathematical Mystery Tour"(covers a lot of ground in 50 mins.):
