Basic ideas - Minecraft floors (1 of 6)

Join me as I see what a geometry textbook has to say about glazed terracotta patterns.

I keep coming back to this series. At this point, it's not even about Minecraft anymore. I'm interested in creating pixel-art tiles just for the love of patterns and this series has made the information contained within so accessible to me.

[@brickie9816]

Ah I yes I learned how computers work on a basic level from minecraft and now I'm gonna learn basic group theory from minecraft and you of course :)

I loved that book by Conway! (For those who don't know, that's the guy from Conway's Game of Life) Looking forward to seeing how far you can take it in minecraft

[@czpiaor]

Haha, Conway must be rolling in his grave rn. He hated the fact that he was most famous for the Game of Life since it was his most simple work. I loved that book too. Conway’s other mathematical works are absolutely phenomenal too.

I don't know why this video popped up from nowhere but I'm not complaining. As a horrible builder myself (I mostly play skyblock singleplayer) this series will be VERY helpful !

[@ProfWisecrack]

I love the angle from which you approach the game. Thanks for the content, keep at it!

[@migsy1]

would you say that Iron bars (the wide version that you see when it's placed in between two blocks) have 180º rotational symmetry? The colors are a bit off, but the shape is the same. Just so you don't have to open up the game to check, it's shaped like this: | | | | - - | | - - | | | - - | | - - | | | |

[@limbolegs]

ik this isnt in the spirit of ur symmetry quest u got, but any block with 90° rotational symmetry (c4 axis) does also encompass 180° rotational symmetry (parallel c2)!

[@limbolegs]

u got the chemistry part of my brain absolutely FIRING! i love point groups and crystallography!

[@danielfinley509]

Seriously yall, why has Chris been missing in our lives, and why isn't he blowing up yet?

[@Haaaaaaaa_]

I still have no idea how to rotate glazed terracotta to get the pattern i want

[@falkeborg9432]

I think its just the angle you look

[@Haaaaaaaa_]

@@falkeborg9432 oh

[@gektix]

this is so cool! i'm looking forward to next parts :D

[@caspermadlener4191]

I would argue the the twisting vine has 90° rotational symmetry, not plane symmetry

[@mikecroakphone]

Please we need more og this

[@alfiet9532]

This is fascinating! Can't wait for part 2 :)

Welcome to Group Theory 101

[@whitestonejazz]

I'd have gone over more technical definitions but I wasn't Abel

[@NovaRack]

3:15 Literally!

[@salty6176]

Crazyyy

[@cozmictwinkie9260]

That was actually really interesting. huh.

[@dialog_box]

wow, a random youtube rec that's actually interesting?? hell yeah man! i'm all about this! there's nothing like a person shamelessly explaining something that they've decided to learn about

[@JiMwB]

Want to leave a like, but it's at 666 and I don't want to ruin it.

[@porternilsson7101]

Reminds me of this video on perimeter floor printers: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqeqqaKLnNWiZpI

[@whitestonejazz]

The first pattern we're gonna look at comes from a floor printer!

[@seekyunbounded9273]

Math?????
