Pathological monsters! cried the terrified mathematician |
| [00:12.430] |
Every one of them is a splinter in my eye |
| [00:18.360] |
I hate the Peano Space and the Koch Curve |
| [00:21.210] |
I fear the Cantor Ternary Set |
| [00:24.430] |
The Sierpinski Gasket makes me want to cry |
| [00:30.550] |
And a million miles away a butterfly flapped its wings |
| [00:36.790] |
On a cold November day a man named Benoit Mandelbrot was born |
| [00:54.850] |
His disdain for pure mathematics and his unique geometrical insights |
| [01:00.410] |
Left him well equipped to face those demons down |
| [01:06.330] |
He saw that infinite complexity could be described by simple rules |
| [01:14.720] |
He used his giant brain and he turned the game around |
| [01:20.790] |
And he looked below the storm and saw a vision in his head |
| [01:26.890] |
A bulbous pointy form |
| [01:29.200] |
He picked his pencil up and he wrote his secret down |
| [01:39.260] |
Just Take a point called Z in the complex plane |
| [01:42.510] |
|
| [01:47.050] |
|
| [01:49.430] |
And Z3 is Z2 squared plus C and so on |
| [01:52.720] |
If the series of Z's will always stay |
| [01:55.550] |
Close to Z and never trend away |
| [01:58.580] |
That point is in the Mandelbrot Set |
| [02:01.100] |
Mandelbrot Set you're a Rorschach Test on fire |
| [02:04.890] |
You're a day-glo pterodactyl |
| [02:07.620] |
You're a heart-shaped box of springs and wire |
| [02:10.620] |
You're one bad-ass fucking fractal |
| [02:13.470] |
And you're just in time to save the day |
| [02:16.720] |
Sweeping all our fears away |
| [02:19.730] |
You can change the world in a tiny way |
| [02:29.030] |
Mandelbrot's in heaven, at least he will be when he's dead |
| [02:34.420] |
Right now he's still alive and teaching math at Yale |
| [02:40.600] |
He gave us order out of chaos, he gave us hope where there was none |
| [02:46.300] |
And his geometry succeeds where others fail |
| [02:52.720] |
If you ever lose your way, a butterfly will flap its wings |
| [02:58.390] |
From a million miles away, a little miracle will come to take you home |
| [03:07.690] |
Just take a point called Z in the complex plane |
| [03:10.810] |
|
| [03:13.660] |
|
| [03:16.640] |
|
| [03:19.820] |
If the series of Z's will always stay |
| [03:22.450] |
Close to Z and never trend away |
| [03:25.550] |
That point is in the Mandelbrot Set |
| [03:28.050] |
Mandelbrot Set you're a Rorschach Test on fire |

You're a day-glo pterodactyl |

| [03:37.420] |
You're one bad-ass fucking fractal |
| [03:40.600] |
And you're just in time to save the day |

And you're just in time to save the day |

Sweeping all our fears away |
| [03:58.820] |
You can change the world in a tiny way |
| [04:01.640] |
Go on change the world in a tiny way |
| [04:04.340] |
Come on change the world in a tiny way |
