The Rhythm of The Primes #some2

Video Not Working? Fix It Now

As part of 3blue1brown's summer of math exposition #2, I decided to make a crazy video I've always thought about making, exploring the interlocking nature of prime rhythmic cycles. For 10 minutes of just the music and no commentary, see https://youtu.be/M48319x1Kg4 . For the making-of video, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzrTmukxUxA All the music was created using the SCAMP libraries for computer-assisted music in Python: (http://scamp.marcevanstein.com/ ), while the animations were done in Processing (https://processing.org/ ). I plan to produce a making-of video in the coming weeks in which I run through the code. If you like this kind of thing and are interested in learning to do it yourself, consider taking my course on Kadenze.com, which will guide you step-by-step in getting started with Python and SCAMP, and also helps supports my work: https://www.kadenze.com/courses/computer-assisted-music-in-python-i Further information on lessons and workshops I teach can be found here: http://teaching.marcevanstein.com/
