About the channel

My name is Grant Sanderson. Videos here cover a variety of topics in math, or adjacent fields like physics and CS, all with an emphasis on visualizing the core ideas. The goal is to use animation to help elucidate and motivate otherwise tricky topics, and for difficult problems to be made simple with changes in perspective. For more information, other projects, FAQs, and inquiries see the website: https://www.3blue1brown.com

How to play

  1. Press play and listen. You start with just 1 second of audio.
  2. If you are unsure, reveal more: the ladder grows 1 → 2 → 4 → 8 → 12 → 30 seconds.
  3. Guess the video by searching the channel. Every correct answer builds your streak; one miss ends the run.
  4. The less audio you need to get it right, the better.
