Slick produced series of talks on the Riemann hypothesis and the connection to F1-geometry (F1 = field with one element). So far, the series contains 10 lectures, the connection to quantum field theory being the last one.

Some time ago i made a clip on teh connection between the actual story of the Bourbaki group and Dema/Trench-lore of #21pilots, focussing on the identity and role of 'bearded man'.

Simone, can you believe it? Now, they've used N33 for their silly Morse-scheme! And these guys have read Bourbaki???

Before yesterday these were the still possible Bishop-permutations. Now 4(Andre) is confirmed, so only the third row is left.
The two middle ones look like two 'dangerous bend symbols' joined, with the 4351 as the most elegant walk.
Today it will be 3(Listo), then 5(Sacarver) then 1(Keons)

On the topic of anagrams.
'Laboria Cubonics' is an (intentional) anagram of 'Nicolas Bourbaki'.
LC is a Xenofeminist collective of six women, spread across five countries and three continents.

Never understood the relevance of oil-cans in the Bandito camp in the Levitate MV, until it hit me:
'oilcans' is an anagram for 'Nicolas'...

If #21pilots will ever reuse the N8-shirt, I'm pretty sure the red-code will refer to "Tear in my heart", that is to Sacarver (aka Simone Weil).

Again (now with gif), 90 years ago, December 10th 1934, the first (proto) #Bourbaki meeting took place at 'A Capoulade' in the 5th arrondissement in Paris. 'Proto' because the name 'Nicolas Bourbaki' was only adopted in the summer of 1935.

90 years ago, on December 10th 1934, Weil, Delsarte, Cartan, Dieudonne, de Possel and Chevalley got together in 'A Capoulade' for the first (proto) #Bourbaki meeting.
