    EDIT: Adding one more, because I like the original song:

    Notice that he taped over the piano brandname on the fallboard, not sure why he did that.

      The original was composed as a violin concerto.

      Just stumbled upon an arrangement for two erhus and a piano:

            @Axtremus I did a double take when I listened the first time. Then I did another, and another, until I finally understood.

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                    That was supposed to be a word play on the fact that 5/4 is commonly classified as an "odd" meter.

                      I never heard it called that! I guess I’m not odd enough.

                              My undergraduate teacher for theoretical computer science was Arnold Schönhage. And of course he taught us the Schönhage Strassen multiplication algorithm, which is way faster than Kamasutra's.

                              I remember being a little overwhelmed by the math around the FFT.

                                Of course, it should be noted that the Kamasutra more broadly deals with many aspects of love rather than to merely multiply quickly.

                                        I’ve been quite impressed by Peter Bence’s many virtuosic piano covers of popular tunes. He struck me as someone with extraordinary technique as well as extraordinary creativity. I have been wondering what his original composition would be like, and now I have come across an example:

                                        Link to video

                                        Ignore the Fibonacci thing … it may have been the inspiration at first but the music can stand apart from the (rather trivial) math just fine.

                                          @Axtremus said in Ax’s lame movie recos and cool YT picks:

                                          I’ve been quite impressed by Peter Bence’s many virtuosic piano covers of popular tunes. He struck me as someone with extraordinary technique as well as extraordinary creativity. I have been wondering what his original composition would be like, and now I have come across an example:

                                          Ignore the Fibonacci thing … it may have been the inspiration at first but the music can stand apart from the (rather trivial) math just fine.

                                          That was cool.

                                          Education is extremely important.
