Have you ever wondered what sound looks like?

My latest video answers this question, and is now out on YouTube! Here's the official trailer, the link to the full video follows. If you like @veritasium.bsky.social, @3blue1brown.com, and @smartereveryday.bsky.social, you're going to love this!

I just uploaded my latest video and am waiting for the copyright claims to clear. It should be released in a day or so. In the meantime, here's one final teaser. Can you demonstrate a standing sound wave via a particle simulation? Not with true accuracy, but sort of...

Have you ever seen air up close? Here is what it looks like at scale, when you zoom in (a lot) and slow things down (a lot). (Another teaser for my upcoming video.)

I'm still trying to make the final edits to a new video. In the meantime, here's another teaser. Have you ever seen a million cubes? Check it out! (This scene took an incredibly long time to render.)

I'm almost finished with a new video, but it will probably take another week or so to polish it up. Until then, here's a teaser. How many grains of sand are in the Sahara desert?

Nice! We have baby foxes! 🦊

According to @badibulgator.bsky.social I should be able to upload videos longer than one minute using the latest version of Bluesky, so I’m trying again from my phone. Let’s see if it works.

Looks like it worked!!

I had a lot of fun working on this article with @divbyzero.bsky.social

My pi day solution was the fastest I have ever done (or will ever do) my puzzle! 😂

Well, it's taken a ton of work, but I've finally finished my latest video on schlieren imaging. Here's a short teaser, a link to the full video will appear in a follow-up message. Enjoy!

And here’s a video showing the phenomenon as I walk from one end to the other. I love #physics!!

In intro physics the other day, we determined that the acceleration of an object rolling down a ramp is independent the object’s mass and radius. In other words, all disks (or spheres) will have the exact same acceleration. Let’s see if that’s true.

What did we do in physics class today? An analysis and an experiment:
