David Paul Brown: the Story of Phi - Math Metal in Extremis


Numberphile collaborates with Dave Brown and Professor Phil Moriarty to create a "math metal" or "math rock" song about Phi... Dave's excellent YouTube channel is: http://www.youtube.com/user/wwwboyinabandcom (He did amazing work on this song for us - the least you can do is check out his other work!)

Professor Phil Moriarty is a physicist (and wannabe rocker) at the University of Nottingham. His blog about this song is at:http://periodicvideos.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/metallizing-phi-by-phil-moriarty... (it has all the gory details)
