I was going to play Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup this evening, but I watched this instead. If you've ever thought it would be fun to watch a math video, make time for this one.

This was great, thanks for the link! So beautiful that these two fields are linked together in a way that a layperson can understand.
Any recommendations for further reading on this topic? I use math for work (I'm a graphics developer) but I do not have a math degree and it's hard for me to find literature at the appropriate level.
