We love mathematics, and we wish everyone else did too. As popular as Salman Kahn’s math videos have recently become, we don’t think his online methods do all that much to spread the love, which for us stems from math’s beauty and its elegant elucidation of patterns and processes all around us in the real world (Khan’s real world program actually does this much better). Below are some of our favorite online resources from people who honor the deep roots of mathematics in the curious exploration of everyday experience.
