<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Grant Sanderson (3blue1brown) did it again. Please do not tell me you never heard of him and his excellent YouTube science-knowledge visualization videos! He changed the interest of thousands of people for abstract
mathematical ideas, making them concrete and more tangible by his excellent simulation videos. He originally came from the Khan Academy team as you can read here:
<a href="https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F3Blue1Brown&data=02%7C01%7Cgordana.dodig-crnkovic%40mdh.se%7Cf94bfa0583a3496129aa08d7d4a37cad%7Ca1795b64dabd4758b988b309292316cf%7C0%7C0%7C637211670951864476&sdata=Nu2csMYUJlMZl0tuUoRyztGrPO6lVHf8LxfkmfVA26w%3D&reserved=0" target="_blank">
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3Blue1Brown</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">This I say as Annette Grathoff, not as the General secretary: My personal opinion is that every scientist interested in informing curious people and raising interest in scientific knowledge should know his videos.
This is how information about important concepts is enabled to spread many times faster than when relying solely on the classical ways. It does science well to spread channels like his, after you (not only) scientifically approved of the content.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
